You noticed that you created a 19 MEGABYTE big SHP for a vehicle that needs only 63 kilobyte when done right?
-you haven't used any transparent color. thus the game has 64 640x480 big images with not a single pixel being transparent and thus compressed by the SHP compression.
All frames use the color 1 as background which is shadow and not 0 which is transparent.
-you still have a 640x480 big canvas in the SHP for a tiny 70x60 big vehicle
-shadow frames use color 12 and not color 1
The last 2 are surely not causing a crash, but trying to display a stupidly gigantic 19MB shp can be the cause. _________________ SHP Artist of Twisted Insurrection: Nod buildings
Plenty of things that can be adjusted here.
- for 32 facing, facings start at North
- in this truck, for north-east, 2 frames are same. Basically only 31 distinct frames
not 32.
- canvas is too large (640x480), it could be smaller. And could be repositioned.
- shp uses index 1 color for background, it should be index 0.
- compression 1 is used, compression 3 could be used. Files size is ~18mb.
- Orange color could have been converted to remap.
- custom palette could be used for the imports.
Attaching the conversion with 1 duplicate frame, no remap. In any case I liked
the truck, a link could be provided to the original asset/model.
-canvas still too big (can be much more optimized/smaller)
-the rendered frames are already bad and unsuitable for a SHP unit. The rotation increases and decreases in speed from frame 0 to 31. The creator didn't know/forgot how to set the key tangents in 3ds max. For such a rotation it is essential to set a linear tanget to make the rotation angle between each frame exactly the same (11.25° for a 32 facing unit)
-background color is ok. shadow color is wrong, as it's using pure black #12 and not transparent shadow #1 _________________ SHP Artist of Twisted Insurrection: Nod buildings
