I really like this animation. It's very simple, but looks good! I'll try and include this animation in the next development commit of Tuxemon.

I just merged the request by treetrunk to include these animations in the latest development branch: https://github.com/Tuxemon/Tuxemon/pull/55

Do all technique animations need to be 7 frames, or can they be more or less? And, can there be techniques that lower defense, not just hp?

Yes, techniques can have any number of frames. I may need to tweak the battle system a little bit to make it easier to use different framerates, and animation speeds, but that shouldn't be a problem. Also, yes, you can have techniques that will do anything. Right now the only technique effects are damage and poison at the moment, but more can be added by writing new methods for the core.components.monster.Technique class, and then including your new technique effect in a technique defined in resources/db/technique.

K, got another water animation! Waterfall:









So, if you like it, I can create a pull request. Let me know what you think!

Hi guys,
I've decided to contribute something as well... but I am too stupid to submit images like you guys do so, I uploaded the sprites on my google drive thingy.
Here is the link: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id= … sp=sharing
Actually I wanted to do some animation for "Pound", but since it looked so ... differently .. I made a water attack out of it.
Not sure if its too small... but for a small water-shot-attack it should be fine... right? D:

I have fixed up my delete animation a little. I think it might be a good move for robots. What do you think?

Thanks for your feedback, tamashihoshi! I like your ideas, and it gave me a few of my own. Here's the new animation with the blue-block concept used.






I also messed with some other possibilities for color, although I think blue looks fine, and probably the best.

*0* uhh~ <3
-cough- ...I mean, yes it looks quite okay -pokerface-

2 more things to make the animation even better:

1 - first of all, the second sprite you use, is the one, I made. Is that a problem? It wouldn't be a problem at all, if I wouldn't be so stupid to make a different CD-Sprite as you did.. That's why the animated version looks a little weird at the start.

2 - the blocks are staying "steady". I mean, yes they move, but their size stays the same and stuff. So one change I suggest is: On the frame, after a square appeared for the first time, you should see the squares very small, let's say, just a few pixels (to make it seem as if they shrink over time).
Another something is the part on the right: while one part of the CD is vanishing in huge speed, the other one is staying at the starting point. It would look more dynamic, if the other side of the CD was also shrinking, but alot slower...

it's horrible animation time!
currently I can't make any better, hope it still shows what I tried to explain before..

Do you mean combine all my techniques in a single gif? Or just one technique?

Sorry, I wasn't even paying attention to your quote. Here you go!

Thanks for your interest and all your work on the wiki! I like how it looks!

Idea for ROBOT Tuxemon. When they run out of moves, instead of using STRUGGLE, they use GLITCH (which hurts them and their enemy)

This collection has a few technique animations that will need to be resized if we use them. They are in the \effects folder (\Blood, which doesn't really look like blood, and \elec). Sorry, I couldn't make gifs with them - my gif program has some weird settings...

Hope we can somehow use some assets from this!

Cool find, josepharaoh99, they look good. The animations have to be either 64x64 pixels (or smaller), to go over a particular tuxemon, or 240x112 pixels (or smaller) to go in the centre of the scene. Let us know once you've resized some and I can add them to the wiki
