Okay. I just want to spin things in Strata (via animation). When I mean spin things, I just mean spinning something in a circle or having something flap up (Like bay doors). Somone gave me a link to Animation Tutorial's ( (url="http://"http://www.stratazine.com/Tutorial/animtut.html")http://www.stratazin...al/animtut.html(/url) ) but since one section is missing, I can't read or understand the other sections :frown:. So All I ask is how you make something spin.
NOTE: I am eventually going to use this to do good sprites by spinning it... however many degrees it is to the next sprite This will be good for accurate shadows etc.
Thanks!

Set up a one second animation and set the frame rate to 36 frames per second Move the time bar to one quarter second, rotate your ship a quarter of the way. Move the time bar to half a second, rotate your ship the next quarter Move the time bar to 3/4 seconds, rotate your ship the next quarter Move the time bar to 1 second (ie, the 37th frame), rotate your ship to the beginning position.
Press command R for render, and now render frames 1 to 36. Your ship should now rotate smoothly around.
Use DrRalphs movies to sprites utility to convert the quick time movie into sprites. Then check the masks and reduce to 256 colours (unless you're making it for Nova).
Then you're done.
