hey,
well I'm looking for two messages on the board....1) the message that had the url to makespin in it and 2) the message that had mask editing help in it.

roar!

plz help!! thanks

::neverfear::

i'd recommend ralph and roger's (url="http://"http://www.mso.anu.edu.au/~ralph/rodger/files/p2s204.hqx")p2s(/url). it makes the sprites and the masks for you once you specify the folder from which to get the frames (just the sprite frames, it makes the mask for you). sometimes you need to touch them up if you used black on the ship, but on the whole it's really good

if you find yourself in bed with a raving lunatic, don't worry: looks can be deceiving, it's probably not me

I use p2s,because Makespin doesn't work for me.
I don't like it.
The masks always end up patchy,and the colour quality of p2s is lower than that of Mechanisto,and ships come out weird colours.

When seen from the fetid black hole which is my bedroom,time is slowed until it is infinite. Why bother doing that homework right now? You've got all eternity to do it.

Ouch! I have been using MakeSpin ever since I did my first ships (4 years ago) and it works excellent. The mask editing tool is good, you can export to PICTs or ResEdit format, it works with non-square sprites etc
