[REQUEST] RPG MAKER'S XP CHARACTER OBJECT

Hello, I want create a RPG, that originally was creating using RPG Maker XP software. I have lot of characters in my game, so I don't want to spread every character in frames (my chars using Alpha, that don't work good with Box mode). I give you all infos about this resource type, because I suppose you aren't RPG maker users.

SPECIFICATIONS
================
Maybe a few images first.

As you see the image can be large or small. Each image represent one character. The animation have 4 frames in 4 directions. I need to spread the images as RPG Maker do it. Each frame width is image's width/4, and height is image's height/4.

Oh, and this extension will be useful for all persons, who make RPGs in MMF, because there are many RPG maker's character over the net.

//edit: And extension should have bounding box options, I mean the user should specificity size and left-top point for bounding box using for collisions with actives/others characters.

3 hours later...
If somebody just started work on it, please tell me. I feel to be ignored. If somebody give me this ext. I'll give him a Beer.exe.

Try Animated Picture.

Oh, and please don't bump your posts after only 3 hours :P

Yeah, but I need split the images...
By hand. I mean I want the mmf split it at runtime - I only will select the image such as images in 1st post, and program will split it. But I try.

No comment. :(

It seems that is something for me. But I don't know how to use it. Can somebody write me help?

Nope. This is definitely not for me - This not support directions, bounding box and variable frame size (with constant frame count)

Oh come on, just use it. No one's gonna make such a specific extension for free, believe me. Besides, I don't see what's your problem... RPG Maker XP's frames all have the same size.

Look at first image that I posted (a girl) and then on second (a dragon) Same size? I don't think so. In RPG maker 2k/2k3 the size of charset's frames are the same. In XP

Im suprised though a decent tile/sprite sheet extension hasn't been made yet really. Because if working with 2d games it's usually standard stuff.

Maybe theres apps that can split these images up into more but a extension would probably save more time and is a good way to handle sprites.

Im thinking you could use events to set the grid sizes (32x32 etc) then set the full image size and use grid like events to get the graphic on a certain area. Then do stuff like -

Repeat while down arrow is pressed - Loop tiles 1-4 for (0 infinite) at change/speed rate (link to timer)

It would be great for RPGs and probably have other possible uses also.
