If you go check out @simplex's fork of the ds_mod_tools, he has actually fixed a bug in the current animation compiler that would basically not produce a bounding box. I recompiled using his version for you (since nobody else has replied) but in the future you should use this:https://github.com/nsimplex/ds_mod_tools I haven't tested the compiled version of your custom animation, but it should work.tinyboxtim.zip Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/35339-got-a-problem-with-a-custom-animation/#findComment-460133 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're on Windows, you'll need Cygwin. http://www.cygwin.com/ I'm not sure how to compile from source on Windows, so that's about as much help as I can give.

O.o Oh, well the issue is that the autocompiler has not been changed. You need to hit Ctrl+Windows and run "cmd". Drag the scml executable from the mod_tools folder to the command promt, then drag the scml file you want converted, then drag the folder you want it to go to to the command promt. Make sure there are spaces between each one and the next.

simplex Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 This is very likely the same as debugman posted (though I saw no issue of it going invisible or anything similar), but here you go tinyboxtim.zip But the bounding box is indeed shifted a bit to the left when he's facing down (and only when): Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/35339-got-a-problem-with-a-custom-animation/#findComment-461450 Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplex Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 YOU'VE FIXED IT HAHAAAAH! except now his side view run start animation is glitched up and makes his body view twice glitchy.png his nose duplicates too! Literally the only change in my version of the scml compiler (apart from path manipulation and other portability details not involved in the actual compilation part) is the change in computation of frame sizes, which doesn't affect the frame contents (what you see). If you're having glitches such as the ones you described, I'd say it's very likely either due to a change in the GitHub version prior to my working on it or due to an issue with the scml file itself, so I can't help you. But I think it's worth looking into the second option, since we compiled roughly 20 animations in Up and Away without issues.

NikMik Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) StuffSay, I'm working on a custom enemy and I understand most of the thing, but I just for the life of me can not figure out where to actually put the file I'm compiling if anywhere specific, and this may just be because I struggle to read anything that isn't fictional or with pictures and learn by example (Anything with more than 3-4 steps I simply can not learn by reading steps. I HAVE to have a demonstration) but I can't see where you said to put them, if you said where to at all. That's about all.

I HAVE to have a demonstration) but I can't see where you said to put them, if you said where to at all. That's about all. What do you mean with where to put the file? You can put it anywhere. The mod tools work like they always have, if you want to use the autoocompiler you should put the mod_tools folder (the one with the autocompiler and other executables) in the same folder as the dont_starve folder (/some/path/mod_tools, /some/path/dont_starve) and then you just run it (provided the scml is in a subdirectory of exported/). If you prefer to use the scml compiler directly, pass as the first argument the path to the scml file and as the second argument the path to your mod directory.
