How to: multiple frames + night anims
Posted: 11 Jul 2022, 22:58
If you want to learn how to make a plugin that contains different frames (like one or more rotations) with night animations
this is the right place!
Below I present you a JSON code that can contain all the frames of your plugin and associate the corresponding night animations to each.
Here are written just two animations (the green and orange boxes) but the amount can be freely increased.
The "handle y" and "handle x" are not fixed values, so you will need to change them based on the circumstances, for example: the lights and windows may not coincide, with this numbers you will be able to change the coordinates at which the animations are placed on the axes.
In the "animation" sector (blue box) are contained the IDs of the animations and after "frame" is specified the frame which they are linked to: default=0 second=1 third=2 etc.
In the "frames" sector (yellow box) are stored the "base" frames of your plugin.
I hope this was helpful!
