Hiya, fellas.

Tech question:

I'm playing around with changing some of the graphics in DS. I made myself a "wife-beater" (named after his shirt) in MilkShape3D. You can see a GIF of him walking, here:

(Notice that he has no stippled shadow... more work to do!)

Now, when I replace the graphics of Dink with the wife-beater, there are some problems. The original "Dink walking south-west" animation has 8 frames. My wife-beater has 20 frames of animation to do the same thing.

Because he has more frames, he appears to "skate." That is, one of his steps takes him father than a step.

I don't want to lower the number of frames. Is there a way to shorten the time between frames? I've poked around with Dink.ini , but couldn't figure it out.

Cheers,

Armitage
