backgrounds with "different layers"

[bolzano21]

Does anyone know how to make backgrounds with graphics "in different layers"?

I do know that AGS does not support graphics with layers, but I need to create a long background to show a travelling with the character. In order to make this effect more realistic, I want to have graphics in it moving with different velocities (nearest objects will move faster than farest objects from the player), as happens in classical arcade games like The Lion King.

How can I do it?

PS: Maybe this is not the better place to post this message, but I am a beginner and I couldn't do it in any other board.

go to the plugin section and get the parallax scrolling plugin. It should be the right tool you need.  8)

You could try making each "layer" a character, and have the script set up to move all the characters from "point a" to "point b", with your main player character static in the middle but playing the walk animation. The background "characters/layers" would have to be quite a lot wider than 320px, depending on how long you want to make them move for. THis would only work if you were doing it for a cutscene though.

There's probably a more efficient way of doing it but this is what first popped into my head.

edit: such as the plugin menazerus mentioned, lol
