whats a gani

whats a gani

no.  

What's a GANI, you ask? Any movement on Graal is an animation file called a GANI, and I think it stands for Graal Animation. Everything from walking to sitting to using a sword or spell is first created with Graal's animation software that you can download as a package from the initial F8 Server Browser; the blue bar at the bottom of the graal client is minimized by default but can expand to resemble what I assume was once meant to look like the Windows XP start bar. GANIs are considered some of the hardest things to pull off, so don't get discouraged if you're having problems.

For more basic information on GANIs, check out the official graal forum's section on the topic: http://forums.graalonline.com/forums...splay.php?f=50

One of the tutorials stood out as especially in-depth, and I have uploaded it here for posterity: http://www.valikorlia.com/tutorial/gani-tutorial.zip  

Going to go ahead and close and sticky this thread. If you have any questions referring ganis, then talk with grief. Good luck to all of those who apply.

Opened back up due to the request of Grief.
