run left animation when walking forward?

[Chicky]

Howdy,

In my game i want the player to be able to walk in all the normal directions but when it comes to walking forward (or diagonal etc) i want it to use the side walking animation.

So if he's walking south west or south south west etc i would like it to use the left walking animation and the right walking animation for south east etc.

I'm sure it's fairly easy to do but i haven't opened ags in a while and my mind is a blank

Just remove all frames from the loops you want to be ignored.

That's what i remember doing but i seem to getting an error that there's no sprite in that view?

[Akatosh]

Hm... that's strange. You just created the first 4 loops as usual, but removed all sprites from the 1st and 4th loop, didn't you?
