I'm trying to import some creature animations from diablo 2.

unfortunately all the frames have empty side space and so in the game the circle is huge.



I can't even try to resize automatically the frames with a 2d graphic program because their height can't be changed.

I know I could manually resize the frames but they are about 200!

is there another way to solve this problem? maybe the size of the circle depends on only a bam or maybe on the first frame.

any idea? thanks in advance

The size of the selection circle is controlled by the animation slot.

I am curious: is it hardcoded or not? It might save me some trouble in the future.

I'm pretty sure it's hardcoded rather than calculated from the BAM dimensions, yeh.

Aren't walking sounds controlled by the 2da files?

I thought it was an animation size matter...

however now I have my small circle but I noticed there is a problem with death animation (xxxxde). I don't see it... the creature becomes immediately a corpse.

it think the right sequence should be: current ani -> xxxxde (the creature fall to the floor dead) -> xxxxtw (there is the corpse)

but I see: current ani -> creature disappears for 1-2 seconds -> xxxxtw (corpse)

any idea?
