Animated Preset?

Here's the code:

Here's the preset (or what happens when I go to preset maker):


missing preset by Crocodilian1, on Flickr

Well, you're missing the { before "receive_shadows on" in the first section, but I don't know if that's a big difference or not. I don't understand why everything is not working...

The file for preset_9_eyeMatL is marked as preset_2eye.jpg...

Change that first and test it again.

---

Oh, also to make sure, are your files saved as .jpg or .png? Because I often forget to change that in the coding.

Try putting
color_op replace
in between "filtering trilinear" and "rotate_anim 0.0"

I have this in my coding, though I'm not sure why. I do remember I had a lot of trouble getting mine to work as well, so maybe this randomly helps you out. If not then I'm going to have to say you need to start over and carefully look over each file and your coding. And when that doesn't work, go nuts and mess around with the coding until it works. It's all very frustrating when things don't work like they're suppose to...

[Crocodile]

Nope. I even switched this code to an updated version I just downloaded, added the "color_op replace", but same results.

Nope. I even switched this code to an updated version I just downloaded, added the "color_op replace", but same results.

Well, like I said, restart with the default coding and make sure it'll run with just one version of your files (no multiple "slides"). Then add in different coding one at a time to see where things go wrong.

[Crocodile]

I went down to just 2 slides, and I'm unable to see the preset folder in the preset maker. :/

[Crocodile]

It worked with the tail, I don't know why it didn't work with the body.

Lol, at this rate I doubt I'm going to manage 50+ slides. >.<

lol I tell you, it doesn't listen to reason. You just need to beat it with a stick for it to work.

[Crocodile]

How'd you get your moving-clouds preset to work? It must've taken a LOOONG time. xD




I'll try animating the tail once more.

[Crocodile]

Fo the tail, though, and other parts of the body, is there a way to change a certain color, but leave another alone?

I want to change the black to blue, and then to purple, red, and so on, but keep the stars in the same position to make it look a bit more realistic. Is there a way to do this in Photoshop?

[Crocodile]

Never mind, I just figured out layering. >.<
