It would be easier for others to debug if you could provide the spritesheets.

Also, don't rely on the demo project for testing. It uses an old version of BABS and does certain things vastly different, like the inclusion of ACTOR_SPRITE_Y_OFFSET, which I think is what you're referring to.

Yeah since my sprite sheet was the same dimensions as the sir_lag_a_lot sprite sheet I just copied the sword swing png over to my game as a placeholder and then copied the way the attacking animation spritesheet was set up so I could just try it out. When I was looking through the script on that demo I did catch the ACTOR_SPRITE_Y_OFFSET and tried finding it in the 2.87 but didn't catch anything similar to fix said issue. I did try a different resolution for the attacking and weapon pngs that moved the sword inside of my character so I am just thinking I have the wrong resolution for these images or something? I'll include the sprite sheets anyway just in case.

Also, here is the lag a lot sheets that I referenced when making it. But like you said since it's an old version of BABS it probably wasn't wise to use as a reference

Hi, pretty new to using XP and I just got the v2.87 Blizz-ABS and am running into an issue with the attacking animation I can't seem to figure out.

I have my character sprite sheet dadmilk.png and my attacking sprite sheet dadmilk_atk1.png and the weapon sprite sheet dadmilk_wpn_1.png (the way it described to do it in the manual) but when I perform the animation in play testing I get the sword very far away from my character and when facing down my character moves back too far. The base sprite is 128x192px and the attacking and weapon sprite sheets are both 384x640px (the manual said to make sure they are the same resolution).

I tried out the Sir Lag-A-Lot demo and the dimensions for the images all match what I have in my game and if I sub out the images in the demo with my own it doesn't have the same issue as it does in my game. Any ideas how I can fix this?
