JC984'S PROFILE

Ive since changed the border to look less blocky in this map :)

Hey, was wondering if someone with more artistic talent finish altering this werewolf sprite? I altered it to the best of my ability and as far as I could go, I just couldn't get the claws right, as I want them shaped like a hand with claws on them. And if they can make the overall sprite look better and more werewolfy ( the design i am going for is the werewolf in the Van Helsing movie with Hugh Jackman).

Here is the sprite so far:


The colors I only need are silver and black werewolves, but I really only need the altering and any fixes it may need, as I can do the recoloring myself.
If I can't get any help, I will just play it with some more to see if I can get it the way i want it.

I.E: This is a altered sprite from the "Weregnome" a sprite made by ghostclown from charas-project.net, so props goes to him for coming up with the original sprite.

Teleporting is your worst choice. It looks weird.

You can use Kazesui's method, which sounds complicated, but is not. Just use a typical caterpillar system, AS IF the destination was the hero, and the hero is the follower... as if the hero was following the destination (which gives the same effect as hero walking to the destination).

Here's my caterpillar tutorial:

Remember to remove the +1 and -1. And remember to reverse hero and event, since the hero will be following the event, not the opposite.

Hmm... I already have variables which track the hero x,y for the sword when it hits an npc. Could I simply use that also to use with the caterpillar system without it affecting the settings for the ABS? Sorry I just recently taught myself all this stuff, so I am still not to sure about a lot of things and how they work yet.

Uh, you don't have to use a caterpillar system if you were to simply move him to a spot. However if there's stuff on your map that might potentially block the hero at all it is rather troublesome, so unless your map is an open field I wouldn't do this UNLESS there is some impending need really, then you should just map it out for a specific scene. Although personally I would do a fade in/fade out and have some cinematic widescreen or something since watching the hero walk from away may be kind of boring for the player!

Well I would just need this for boss battles really, which after-wards maybe a small cut-scene would follow.And I was planning on to have fairly open battlefields for most of the boss battles.

Let me elaborate... since I have a ABS in my game, I want after the hero wins the battle to walk to a specific location where he needs to be during a cut-scene. The only thing i can think of is using teleport hero/npc to where i want them after the battle if the hero wins by using a conditional branch. Is that the easiest way to do it if it's possible? I am just wondering if there are other better ways to do it and if they exist.

Fine by me meavor, I just liked how it animated in a battle animation, it seemed a lot smoother.

Battle animations are not a good method.

Why aren't they a good method to you? Sorry, obviously you have more experience then me and just want to hear your opinion.
