X-X-X Bowstars Animated Backgrounds X-X-X

[bowstar]

I have no clue about linux. I just make them and hope they work for me and whoever wants them. I have Vista and they work. I'm sorry you can't get them working but I am glad you like the backgrounds enough to try. Hopefully someone will point you in the right direction. Maybe try an earlier version of Alarian without patches. I haven't patched in a few months because everything works just right for me. Just curious...what background are you most excited about?

I discovered that the frames skip after Stage99. Would go 99, 100, 01, 102, 02...ect. I found a fix for now: 99, 990-999, 9990-9999, 999990-999999

That's because FoF/your OS handles files alphanumerically. Renaming them this way : Stage0001.png (instead of Stage01.png) will also work (until you reach Stage9999.png, that is).


@contrast : totally random guess, but it could be due to the way the game sort files under Linux.
Just to be sure, check that "rotate_stages" is set to "2", in fretsonfire.ini.
You could also try renaming files alphabetically (aaaaaaaa.png, aaaaaaab.png, etc.).

You are welcome! Makes it worth it knowing people enjoy them. Takes me about an hour or so for each background so I have invested well over a full day on these! If anyone has access to loopable backgrounds please let me know where to find some new ones. Pretty much used all the good free ones from Movietools.

There was a problem with these loading before except it was fixed in the new Alarian update

[BlackJack]

In fact, there is still a problem, but as reported earlier you only need to turn all files to lowercase to fix it.

Uhm, you do know that you dont have to # your stages after 99 with more 9's after it... the easiest way around this is just to ad an extra zero to the first 99...

stage001.png, stage099.png... stage100.png...

That way you can just carry on from 100 on... and no skip'd frames.

if you use that file renaming program it's easier than pie.. seems a little excessive by adding 9's over and over..

It was for the first time that I did it. I had no clue what I was doing when I first started. The files just skipped after Stage99. I just tried the nines on my own and it worked to my surprise! I just save over the previous files, so now I don't have to rename and it is pretty simple for me. I never had too many complaints that the stages didn't work in that "numbered" order, so I just assumed they were working good for anyone who dloaded them. I use an older unpatched version of alarian and things work good for me. It's the old motto "If it ain't broke, don't fix"
