Re-using Animation on Multiple Characters

Hi I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, please bear with me. So in my game, I got 20 enemies that looked different, but should have the same animations. For example the dying, running, walking animations are all structured the same. But I don't want to do this manually, giving the fact that I'm using frame by frame animations, it will consume a lot of my time. Is there a way I can re-use my main animations to other movieclips/characters? Like reusing armature/animation via bone tool... thanks
There's an old thread almost the same as mine. Saw this link, and this is the one I'm talking about. But sadly, ain't free.

Yes, I'm currently using FbF. But I can't show you any SS right now for the 20 enemies, cause I ain't done with that part. I only got my player's (main character) animations. Here's some of it:
this is not drawn FbF, rather they are vector parts rotated/tweened each frame.

  • Create a flat file with multiple characters for enclosures

    Hello,
    we use OWB 11g2 (11.2.02).
    Now we try to create a flat file with multiple characters for enclosures. The manual wrote:
    "Enclosures (Left and Right): Some delimited files contain enclosures that denote text strings within a field. If the file contains enclosures, enter an enclosure character in the text box or select one from the list. The list displays commonenclosures. However, you may enter any character. The default for both the left and right enclosure is the double quotation mark ("). You can specify multiple characters and hexadecimal characters as field enclosures."
    But it will not work. The OWB use the first character from the left enclosure definition as left enclosure and the second one as right enclosure !?!
    Did anyone know this behavior? Is there a solution for this problem?
    Thanks and regards
    Norbert

    HI Raghu,
               Use the function module 'GUI_UPLOAD'.
               In that you have to specify the field_separator value = 'X' in export section.

  • Multiple characters in one slot of an ArrayList?

    I am writing a method that extracts words from a string and returns an ArrayList with the given extracted words. I am not allowed to use the method split.
    I have managed to get the characters of the input string into an array list, but I can't seem to get multiple characters into one slot of the list. Can you put multiple characters into one slot of an array list?
    Here is the code for my method.
    import java.util.*;
    import java.io.*;
    public class PS6
      public static ArrayList<Object> extract_words(String string1)
       String s1 = string1;
       char space = ' ';
       int index = 0;
       ArrayList<Object> charArray = new ArrayList<Object>(s1.length());
       for (index = 0; index < s1.length(); index++)
         char current = s1.charAt(index);
         if(current != space)
           charArray.add(current);
       return charArray;
    }If I leave it like this, when I write a test program to test this method, my output is:
    java ExtractWordsTest
    [N, o, w, i, s, t, h, e, t, i, m, e]
    Not what I want. I want [Now, is, the, time]
    I thought to fix this, I could modify part of the for loop as such
    int position = 0;
         if(current != space)
           charArray.add(position, current);
        else
           position++;
         } thinking that this would add all characters to the same slot in the ArrayList until it found a space. If it found a space, it would advance the slot of the ArrayList and start adding characters to that slot until it found another space. It would do this until it reached the end of the string.
    But with this code, the output of the test program is
    java ExtractWordsTest
    [e, m, i, t, e, h, t, s, i, w, o, N]
    Am I going about this in the wrong way? Is it not possible to add multiple characters to one slot of an array list?

    I've been trying to account for that. I figured that it wasn't giving me the last word because it never finds a final space, which is true. When in my test program, I make the test string "Now is the time " with that extra space, the out put is [Now, is, the, time].
    The problem is I don't want to put in that extra space.
    I've been trying to put in another else if statement, but I'm not trying things that are correct.
    I've tried the above code with
    else if (current == finalChar)
         { /*trying to get it to extract the last substring and add it to the array as the last element*/
           newString = s1.substring(s1.lastIndexOf(space), s1.length());
           stringArrayL.add(newString);
         }but even though the method compiles, it makes my test program go crazy and clearly does not work.
    I've tried using || in various ways, specifically regarding the second else statement
    else if (current == space || current = s1.charAt(s1.length()))
             stringArrayL.add(newString);
             newString = "";
           }but that, as well as other || parameters I have tried keeps spitting out
    [Now, is, the]
    The only way I've gotten it to give me all four is by putting that extra space in at the end of the test string, which I don't want to have to do.

  • Can I use animated emoticons in mail?

    I want to put an animated emoticons in my signature block in emails.  I can put them in my signature block but they do not animate.   How to use animated emoticons in mail?  If so how do I get them to work?

    You said you have a url link to the animated gif.
    Open that link in Safari or Firefox or some other browser so that you are actually looking at the animated gif doing its thing.
    Open Mail and go to Preferences > Signatures
    Select a signature to edit or create a new one.
    Edit the text as desired.
    To add the animated gif drag the actual image from the browser window and drop it in to place in Mail's signature composing frame.  Don't worry if it only displays as a [?] icon.  When you do this, you aren't actually adding the image but are creating an HTML link to the file on the internet server.
    Make sure you have added the signature to the account you will be using it with.  You can drag the signature name (in the middle column) and drop it on the desired account in the left hand column.
    If that is the only signature you have for that account, then when you start a new message it will automatically apear in the message.  If you have multiple signatures you can select the one you want (or none) from the message's toolbar.

  • Replace multiple characters to single character

  • Multiple characters show up when I'm typing in Safari.

    Help! When I am using Safari, and I'm typing, for example, the address of a web page, multiple characters show up. Ex: google comes up as ggooogle. It only seems to happen when I am using Safari. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Hi Robert! Thanks for replying so quickly!
    On the Autofill menu, I have checkmarked "Using Info from my address book" and "Other forms". I turned these two off, and typed in "auto fill" in the spotlight search. it came out as "autto fill". Is it possible that I typed in some words wrong, and it's remembering what I typed?

  • Can you use sync on multiple computers at the same time? ie have someone else logged into your firefox account for you whilst you are also logged in

  • Using iOS5 on multiple devices

    hi Forum
    Is there a view on how to use iOS5 on multiple devices when multiple devices are owned by differing family members? i have an iPhone, my partner has an iPhone, and together we have an iPad. [i have a MBP as well but havent updated to Lion yet, dont knwo if this is part of this question]. iOS5 can sync to multiple devices so can we sync all apps and musc between the mobile devices? do they have to be on the same apple user ID? of have i got that wrong?
    also contacts and photos wise, we both have our own photos, contacts, calendar and mail. can any/all of these be syncd between us all? i guess the one that would be syncd would be photos as youd want to see that on the ipad.

    The iTunes account and iCloud accounts are not linked on your devices.
    So you can each have an iCloud account that works on your iDevices nd all be logged into the same iTunes account in the iTunes Store, App Store, IBooks, etc.
    You do really need your iMac to be on 10.7.2 as it was a requirement before you moved to iCloud, did you lie when asked the question "are all your devices ready for iCloud".

  • How to use OSD with Multiple DPs to remote locations

    Hi
    My SCCM 2012 R2 Primary site is located on my corporate office but i need to use OSD for multiple branch locations in different subnets.in My Organization there is network level DHCP server rather than Windows DHCP...
    What would be the complete configuration in this case .. can some one provide the steps..
    Shailendra Dev

    Hi,
    The best way to forward the PXE boot requests to the DP/PXE server is to use IP Helpers in the routers/switches. I assume that the branch locations are without a DP. You can use DHCP scope options in the DHCP servers as well but you will end up with problems
    when PXE-booting machines that run UEFI becuase it is not the same bootfile used and it is not really supported.
    Maybe standalone media could be an option where you have the most of the TS on a USB stick/Drive.

  • Using iTunes on multiple ipods and PCs

    I currently have an iPod mini (purchased 2005) which I use in conjunction with iTunes on my PC. My mini is now on its last legs, and so my partner and I are going to get some replacements: two iPod shuffles (one each) and a classic to put our combined music collections on.
    There are a couple of things that I could use help with.
    1.) How do I connect the three new iPods that we're going to buy to my existing iTunes library?
    2.) Is it possible to create a combined iTunes library that is shared between my PC and my partner's PC, so that we can each share each other's music? (My partner is not currently on iTunes and would have to sign up first).
    3.) Is it possible to use our shared iPod classic both on my PC and on my partner's? (My PC runs on windows xp and my partner's on windows 2000).
    Thanks for your help!

    There are several different ways to use multiple iPods with one computer, have a look at this help page for suggestions and choose the method that suits you best: How to use multiple iPods with one computer
    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer or with more than one library you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library (iPod shuffles can only be used with one library by the way):
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    Syncing Music to iPod
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod
