LaSEr is a utility which, theoretically, turns 36 sprite and mask picts into a spin graphic using LASIK.
However, every time I try to use it, I get a NilObjectException.
Anyone have a clue what's wrong? I really don't want to have to manually photoshop these into a spin, if there's an easier way.....

Ooh, LaSEr! I remember that... I'll get Vortex to post some help for you. I made a similar program back in the day, using METALBasic, but it did not do LASIK, and I have no idea what became of it.
I'll send him a link to this topic.

Wow... I hardly remember even making that program. I didn't think anybody would use the thing, so I stopped working on it sometime in 2002. If there is still interest, I suppose I could finish it up, or maybe recode it.
Anyway, I would suggest you turn up the memory for it. That fixes most REALbasic NilObjectExceptions with LaSEr (unless, of course, I uploaded a buggy version; just try it).
Another reason I stopped bothering with it was that using m2s and Photoshop was much faster than LaSEr (both Rb and the way I set up the code prevent incredible speed). You may want to use this combination.
Thanks for the feedback. May I ask how you found out about the program?

If you go to the EVN addons page, and select the Utilities catgory, LaSEr is on the bottom of the first page. Wasn't that obscure, really.
I'll try turning up the memory.
EDIT: At 20MB, it still doesn't work. I guess I'll use an alternate method.

How big are the images you are using? They are converted to pure pixel data, so you might need a good amount more memory.
It's good to hear about your p2s success, though. I'll take a look at the code sometime soon...
