walking object ( Gsap code + timeline) don't work ;-(

[cartimundi]

Hello, i'm making banners with greensock...and LIKE IT...however i'm not a pro, more a newbie...

i can animate most things, but now i want to have a walking man or doll....i can make it with a timeline ( and a mask ) every frame another action of the man...

but can't play the timeline together with the code (of greensock)

is there a way to let the man walk with greensock code in Adobe animate CC??

or a way to play the both ways?

hope to hear as soon as possible...deadline;-(

you can convert the frames of your walking man into a movieclip and then use greensock's to animate that movieclip (of the walking man).

to convert the frames to a movieclip, cut and paste them into a new movieclip.

hmmm... should i have separate images of all the positions, and then set them all to movie clip?

i know have a sprite, with 20 movings of a man in the same image...

i saw something of a photoshop file with layers...but won't that make it a heavy banner./image?

i thought also working with a mask and the move the symbol in code...but thats difficult because not every step is exactly the same..

i don't understand your last post.

typically you might have 10-20 frames of a man walking that display arms and legs moving. when you play that timeline it looks like one full walk cycle and when you loop that movieclip it looks like the man is continually walking.

but the man is stationary/not moving across the stage.  you would use greensocks tween class to animate the man movieclip (eg, man_mc) across the stage using something like:

TweenMax.to(man_mc,3,{x:stage.stageWidth});  // or TweenLite
