newbie animation problem

hi, thanks scirra for making such a great tool for free.

i started to make a great platformer, but for starters i wanted to learn to animate my self with the tutorial sprites.

so i took the sprite from the platform school. but there is a bug thats making me shave my hair from angst.

when i jump and i fall, when my char hits the ground the fall animation dosnt stop, so he continues to flicker between fall and stand. and yes all the hotspots are the same. i dont know what is, i tried everything and its MAKING ME MAD.

can someone PLEASE HELP ):

here are the files i hope someone can help me,i lost two hours trying the damn animations to actualy play and now this...

Im new to the whole program aswell, but have you made an animation and used the "stopped" tag on the animation ?

I had that problem aswell before I used the "Stopped". As a "idle" pose.

thanks so much for helping, ill try it now and see if it works!

it seems there are atleast two ways to animate a platform

1 - the platform school tutorial -> when player walks animate walking

2 - when player presses right animate walking

i still dont get the tags but it has to work

Im linking the tutorialthingie i looked at when i did my movementthing.

There ya go.

ah this is great, and its alot more of a new way compared to what i was trying wow

thanks

No problem this was a problem I could assist with, more advanced stuff I�m not really sure i can assist anyone with yet.. Im still working on my first project myself.

o my god, i followed every step and it dosnt work with me.

the char keeps walking at one place, stucking on fall animation when he reaches the ground.

awful....im going nuclear with rage

ah..i taged idle as stopped and now everything works allright.

wow....thank the gods its finnaly over. i can finnaly continue [solved]

*edit*

Ah nice that you solved it. Now make some awesome games!
