How could I flip animations?

[kaotiklabs]

Hi,

I have an animation of the character walking to the right.
How could I reuse this animation for walking to the left?
Any way to flip easily the anims?

I have heard something about using negative values with drawanim but I´m not really sure if it works. I have try to test a bit but with some weird results.
Is this the way?

You've got a few choices :

• You could either somehow rotate and/or flip the graphics
• Use a graphics package to flip the frames
• Reverse the animation frame numbers

POLYVECTOR or ZOOMSPRITE with negativ values

I believe polyvector should be better than zoomsprite because I´m working over a spritesheet and don´t want to grabsprite into memory.

Eitherway, thanks for the replies, I´m going to try, hope it works because I´ll safe 50% of the image files size.
