Previewing animation workflow?

[Bikupan]

Alright, so I'm not super familiar with the Don't Starve mod tools, but thanks to some various sources I've been doing some good progress on a character mod.

 

HOWEVER, I'd like to do some tweaks to my sprites, but it's difficult when the only way I know to iterate is by previewing the animation in-game. Is there a way to preview all of the character animations in Spriter or something? I did some digging around the forums but couldn't seem to find anything relevant on the topic.

 

But yeah, what's the most effecient way to preview all of the character animations?

I don't beleive there is any way to view them in spriter. At least none that I know of.

 

But if you want a quick way to view any sprite in game

inst.AnimState:PlayAnimation("anim_name_here") --including parenthesis --example: "shovel_pre"

Will make the instance play the animation you want. You could hook a few up to play when pressing a button or something

Oh thanks, Pickle! That's super useful

You can use krane to decompile "player_actions" or any other "player_[something]" in the don't starve anim folder using your character build instead of the regular wilson build.
