i want to make two characters hug each other. i move them towards each other and do the hug animation for each character. the problem is that one character makes the animation in front of the other so that one can't see the other. the effect i wanted to have isn't there. so how can i do it that it looks like they are huging each other?
You could try making one character called HUG or something and put the animation for both characters into that one...maybe.
Or you could just slice parts off the frames, so that stuff that would go behind the other character is transparent. You'll just need to be quite exact with the character positioning.
Save yourself ALOT of trouble and just make a gif animation of them hugging (their distance apart would be the same as what you scripted), import it as frames, store this animation in an extra animation slot for the main char, and when the action activates change to that anim and move the other character to another room temporarily.
thx for your help. now it works :D
