I am once again asking for help

I recently had to restart my project and am having a different problem this time around.

While creating a character the animation blinks in and out.

My character sets are 144x144, and I did not change the frame order at all.  There are no blank frames in the images either, it is just 3 frames in all four directions. I embedded a video of it happening. I tried not to bother you again but I have been trying to figure it out all day.

Hi there!

It's hard for me to know why this is happening with only that information. But basically, the settings for it to work well are these ones below:


  • You need to make sure that the Piece / Frame size matches with your piece files.
  • The frame order is not direction order. The frame order is the pattern order.

The ROW order, is the direction:


If the Generator does not support diagonal movement, then the plugin will automatically removes the diagonal direction. Meaning the Row order above, inside the plugin code, will be read as below:

  • 2,4,8,6

Now, another thing is, if your character has more frames than the default(More than 3 columns), you need to follow the Eli Character Frames rule for that.

And Similar, if you have a diagonal character, you also need to make sure to follow the Eli Diagonal Characters rule.


If you still did not make it work, link me a sample project so I can download and figure it out.

The row order was what I wasn't understanding. Thank you so much! In two more months maybe I'll have another random question for you lol
