I've been playing "Uncertainty Machine" and think the author did a relatively good job w/ graphics, but didn't like the fact that he didn't do 8 directions of movement with the chartacter (if you've played it, you know what I'm talking about). Does AGS allow for the character to move only in 4 directions? If so, is there an engine which is not as limiting? (or can be messed with enough so that you could have 8 directions of movement?) Thanks

AGS supports 8-directional animations, but you try finding someone who's willing to actually draw that many frames for their characters

As long as you could export the frames as bmp, pcx or png, you can use them in AGS...

Shall I hang myself again? I do apologise for hurting your whatever. Why do you hate me? I never said that not having animations from 8 directions is SUCH A BIG DEAL as you seem to think I thought. Sheesh, it was an offhand comment.

Tactlessly understated

Most of the animation (all character animation in any case) I'll do in 3D because I am a shitty animator - can't draw the same thing twice to save my grandmother - while a fairly decent sculptor. |
