FlawlessHair Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Hello! I've been following this tutorial on how to make a custom equipable item. It has been going well. It shows up in game when on the ground, and when in my inventory. The only problem I have is that when I equip it, it does not show. Wilson is basically holding thin air. The weird thing is, everything should be set up correctly. When opening DST the cmd does tell me that it created a .zip file with swap_myitem and when I look in my folder, it is also there. I get no errors when I start the game, but all I see is Wilson holding thin air. What can I do? (Also what information do you need to help me solve the problem?)

Arkathorn Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 It's probably the rotation that's throwing it off. Spriter is not the original format that animations are made in, so there are limitations. Try rotating the texture (in the PNG file) as opposed to the animation element (in the Spriter Project). If there are no rotated pieces, it should be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I created a new project, set the pivot, saved the project, watched DST export the file, but in game Wilson is still holding thin air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkathorn Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Could you post the code, and a screenshot of your file structure? Try putting the 'swap_sickle' folder in 'exported' directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlawlessHair Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 Like so? Still gave me an invisible tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlawlessHair Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 Sorry about the bump. I'm still having this problem. One thing I noticed is that my swap_item.zip also has an anim.bin file in it, where other swap_item.zip files do not. They only have atlas-0 and build.bin Did I do something wrong in the export or spriter process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried taking it out and see what happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
