Ol' West + Graal Viewer... BEWARE!!! - 2

Just thought of this but you could try getting the graal pc client and then downloading the dev tools for the gani editor (graalshop).
Then you could just open the basic gani's and replace the default graphic files with your uploads and whatever else

Dude now that sounds like an idea..... I won't pretend to know how to go about doing this, but if somebody has the means for it, I'd like to know how it turns out. I'm about 3/4ths finished with my work so I'll stay the path, but if I was just beginning or bulk GFXing, I'd try this in a heartbeat. Thanks Eugeen. And again, if anybody should try this, give us a heads up, cuz believe me man, it's absolute crap work using the alternative method.

You've got to be kidding me, man.

I do use GIMP. Who hasn't? Yes, GIMP has a GIF/Animation display, but it obviously doesn't give you the proper x, y coordinates for Graal head, body alignment. Even the official head/body templates do not come with this info, because they exist only as separate entities. Aside from this, it takes a bit of effort in setting up an animation vs just popping the images in the Viewer.

The only method for a player to extract proper alignment, would be to demo Noob head + body in-game, take screenshots of every single frame that makes up a template (80+ basic frames, not including special actions/animations i.e. dances, guns), import all of it into a program, align the head and body templates to the screenshot, and finally GFX over the aligned frames. GIMP (or whatever graphics program you desire) is only an instrument, and has only a fraction of relevance to the heart of the subject.

Side note... why kids always use a winky face when they think they're being smart?

i was kidding dam, i thought the winky face was the give away for that.
