BIG BIG ASS WIP but working on an asset pack based on my dragon and the song The Well by The Crane Wives. This will eventually be made public for everyone to use once i'm finished.

More playing around with animations extracted from the World Map. Some of them are pretty easy to turn into GIFs, some of them are more challenging, some of them would be extremely difficult to impossible (for me) to do.

For example the astrodome (above) is two different animations, an 8-frame strip that does the shine crossing over the astrodome city, and a 13-frame strip that's the floating crystals. To make the above animation I used two loops of the crystals overlaid over mostly just 1 frame of the astrodome, with a single pass through the animation of the shine. Overall pretty simple.

The windmill village is a comparative level of difficultly; it's made by combining a 5-frame strip for the background of smaller windmills, and a 6-frame strip of the largest sail, for 30 frames in total so they both loop entirely.

I'm still not entirely happy with the Flotsam animation. The original indexed image has 'waves' moving outwards from the shapes where they meet the water, that fade off as they increase in size (at least as seen on the World Map). The fade gets lost in the process of turning the strip into a GIF, resulting in harder-edged 'waves', which isn't too annoying on a light background but is very obvious on a dark one. After multiple attempts, this is the best I was able to do.

Some of the strips would be MUCH more difficult to gif-ify. The Behemoth tree, for example, would require combining the trunk that's baked into this map tile...

...with a strip of treetop images where each frame of the tree looks something like this:

I spent a couple hours trying to get something that didn't look like shit and failed. Eventually I gave up (yes, since I'm in nature, the inability to GIF the Behemoth hurts me).

The World Pillar is a similar combination of a static map image part and an overlying animation, though there at least the more geometric shape of the pillar would be MUCH easier to cut free from the background, and the overlying pillar top doesn't have bits of background baked into it, so it's considerably more doable than the Behemoth.

Nothing in fire appears to be gifable; the only animations I've found there are three slightly different fixed translucent smoke images that just get moved around over top each other to fake animation. They look like so:

Anyway, I'll probably make more GIFs from the World Map in future, as the mood strikes. Not necessarily all landmarks, there's some very cute things like animated sharks and stingrays to be found in the resources.

Once again feel free to copy these to elsewhere for linking purposes, and no attribution needed since they're not my art. If anything, attribute them to FR.

Was taking a look at the World Map this afternoon and finally figured out how to extract the Luminax textures from it. Combined the right-facing idle and roar strips for the above, and the left-facing ditto for the below (Luminax is not symmetrically coloured, so there's left- and right-facing strips for every animation).

Haven't attempted the walking animations, since as well as right- and left-facing there's also facing-front and -back directions - so four different pose strips, and there'd need to be 4 different gifs made. Blargh.

Feel free to grab copies of these to host elsewhere for your own use, if you don't want to just link to them here. No attribution needed since they aren't my graphics.

For both myself and anyone else who might want to use it, here's the Plaque from April Fool's. Someone might have already uploaded this, but I'm not going to go hunting through the tag to check lol

And for extra convenience, the thread where you can calculate the award your dragons would have gotten: Boop.
