icantevenname Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Does anyone know how to have changes made in the spriter reflect the character in game? I'm using the pigtail sprites to make it look like my character has long hair that moves as she does. It looks fine from the front, but not from behind. So in the spriter, I moved the right pigtail to match the head's outline. But it doesn't show up in game. How do I make it do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amalleus Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I would give you one advice - never move anything in spriter .scml file and save. Animation will be broken in game since it works weird. Try to draw it like you see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadiantRoma Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Try moving the hair over in the png file in exported folder. Move it a bit and then check spriter to see if it is in the right place. Rinse and repeat until it looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icantevenname Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 That's the problem, if I did move it so it's aligned from the back, it won't be for the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadiantRoma Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Instead of using the pigtail feature, did you try using the hair feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried it, it seems to be on a layer behind the head, but in front of the torso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halfrose Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 when you want to change the position of a sprite, moving it in the SCML doesn't do anything, what you need to do is change its default pivot to do so simply do the following: when you hover over the sprite you can see a white circle, select and hold the circle, it will be red, then put on the position you want, then right click and select 'overwrite current pivot' or something like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway to reorder the sprites? I wanna try to use the hair sprites again, but as previously mentioned, the hair is between torso and head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
