Very nice, I especially love the Elektra new stance. Are the new stances available for download.

@metamutant You can add them right away. It is a bit of work though.

Here's a quick how to:

1. Right click the stance, and choose save image as. Save the image.

2. Rip frames from the GIF file
https://ezgif.com or some other source.

3. Apply the character's color palette to the sprites

4. Add the sprites to the SFF

5. Modify the AIR for the new stance animation

For now They are just samples...
but can be used by anyone who wants to just use this online transformer program from Gif to PNG ...

Sorry this thread got sidetracked Gartanham.

Now let's get back on the topic of graphic arts and talk about Gartanham's great work on these stances yes

LionO...

Lion-O looks awesome with the sword and holster. He's for sure my favorite one so far. It just adds so much to the character.

thatguy wrote:: Here is a video with a tutorial on how to swap out a character's stance (or any sprites) without breaking the file.

Before anyone asks the Symbiote Spiderman I have used in this video and tutorial is someone else's WIP and can not be shared.

What you need:

1. The character file
2. The sprite(s) being added/swapped
3. A gif extractor (a free online one that works is https://ezgif.com/ )
4. An image editor (a great free one is gimp https://www.gimp.org/ )
5. Fighter Factory Classic and Fighter Factory 3 (get them here: http://fighterfactory.virtualltek.com/ )
6. Mugen to test when complete

Tutorial part 1 - Extracting the frames from the animation

1. Go to ezgif.com
2. Click "Split"
3. Choose your file
4. Click "Open"
5. Click "Upload"
6. Click "Download"

Tutorial part 2 - Fixing the sprites to allow the palette

1. Extract the sprites
2. Extract 1 sprite from your character file as PCX (for some reason in the video fighter factory classic would not save the PCX, so I used fighter factory 3)
3. Open the extracted sprite from the character file in gimp
4. Choose the "color picker" tool to choose a color by clicking it
5. Choose the background color of the sprite extracted from the character
6. Choose the "bucket fill" tool
7. Set threshold to "0"
8. Open 1 frame of the new stance in gimp
9. On the frame of the new stance sprite click "Image"
10. "Mode" > Click "RGB"
11. Click the "select by color" tool
12 Right click the background of the new stance frame
13. "Edit" > "Fill with foreground color"
14. Click "Image" > "Mode" > Click "Indexed"
15. Maximum number of colors 256
16. Click "Convert"
17. Click "File"
18. Click "Export"
19. Repeat steps 8-18 until all sprites are complete

Tutorial part 3 - Applying the character's color palette to the sprites

1. Open Fighter Factory Classic
2. Open the character file
3. Move to a sprite with the default character palette
4. Click "Palettes"
5. Click "Add"
6. Open your new stance sprites
7. Checkmark "use the same name"
8. Click "Apply the palette on the images"
9. Type a name for a file
10. Click Save

Tutorial part 4 - Adding the sprites to the character file

1. Open the character in fighter factory Classic (already open from before)
2. Go to the sprites file
3. Scroll to the last stance sprite
4. Click "Add"
5. Group "0", Image "???" (sequential last sprite +1)
6. Click "Shared Palette"
7. Choose all the new stance sprites
8. Click "ok"
9. Align the new sprites to match the character's other sprites ***This is not in the video***
10. Click "Sprites" ***This is not in the video***
11. Click "Save" ***This is not in the video***

***This is not in the video***
Tutorial part 5 - Adding the sprites to your Stance anim (Animation number 0)

1. In Fighter Factory go to the Animations file
2. Scroll to Animation number 0
3. Replace the sprites in the anim with your new stance sprites
4. Play the animation to make sure the animation is correct timing
5. Ensure all CLSN are corrected
6. Click "Animations"
7. Click "Save"

There you have it. Not hard work, but a LOT of work.
