it's my first time so be gentle
Ok so i've gone through most of these post and figured out how to make a graphic, and animation, and get them to show up in my xml editor ( SIDLWIDL).
I'm trying to add a animation to the target window. I'll worry about a custom template and all later (if i can).
read a post about how to insert a custom animation into a window, and followed it to a "T".
sorry about posting the whole darn thing but it's not that big hehehe, any way I tried making these two lines
StaticAnimation item= "A_targetanim01">
<ScreenID>wings</ScreenID>
have same and different values and my <pieces> is at bottom. I just keep gettting the same error when i click the screen portion under target window in SIDLWIDL. If i click the animation refence there, it shows it no probs, so the animation code i think is right, but i'm just not calling it to be an item on the screen correctly ???. Any help would be apreciated thanx.
