Title: Animation in SFML 2.0.
Post by: Roose Bolton of the Dreadfort on March 20, 2012, 06:43:46 am

Whats the best way for animation? EG. moving through a big sprite sheet in SFML 2?

I noticed it had a textureRect property? Does this mean we can use that to decide where in the sprite sheet we want to be and move dynamically when we want?

when I wrote a 2D engine for University, we used FrameRect's, and they where so flexible and easy to use thats why I ask.

Cheers.

Yes.

Look at all the animation codes on the forum, wiki and in SFML-related projects, there are several sources of inspiration ;)
