Title: [RESOLVED] Simple animation in events
Post by: shaz on July 03, 2007, 08:24:45 AM
I am playing with an event with graphic 182: Light 2.  I just want the light to be animated (flames moving) when the game starts, but only the first frame is showing - no animation.

Using RMXP, in the event I have Autonomous Movement: Type (fixed); Options: Move Animation; Trigger: I've tried both Autorun and Parallel Process.

No preconditions, no event commands (that's probably what I'm missing but nothing stands out as being the one to use), only one event tab.

Appreciate any help.

(sorry - should I have posted this in RPG Maker Help?)

Ah beautiful! 

I actually got it working by having 4 event pages, each with a different frame of the image, and each waiting 2 frames before changing self-switches.  It worked, but I was REALLY hoping there was an easier way!

Your suggestion worked perfectly.  Thanks.
