2D Characters?

[SIG7Pro]

u know that SRB1 Sonic Mod? It has a 2 direction Sonic, how do I make a character face 2 directions, left and right, do I need lua, SOC, what do I need?

Basically, this effect is exclusive to map configurations and really doesn’t have anything to do with the characters themselves.

I would normally make the sprites like A1, A2A8, A3A7, A4A6 and A5 be removed and replaced with a single Sprite with A0 so it gives that feeling of a 2D character. I recommend this method since it gives less work and makes him easier to load in game since he has no rotation sprites.

That's not how Earless works, name the spritelump "#L#R" at the end. So for example, "STNDALAR". This will cause the character to have left and right facing sprites in 2D mode, and use Left or Right in 3D, depending on their angle. This is a LOT less work than using A1, A2A8, etc, as well as way less required sprites, if your aim is a 2D character.

Thanks! D00D64 and others! I'll try that!
