Simple guide - How to make a wave animation:
1) Run StickAnimator
2) Drag each stickman by their head so that they are standing on the floor.
3) Move one of their arms up over their head by dragging at the elbow
4) Move the end of one of their arms vertically upwards by dragging at the hand. - This is your first frame.
5) Press '+' to advance a frame.
6) As you can see, the stickmen are gone, so press enter to copy the previous frame into this one.
7) Move the end of one of their arms again, this time slightly to one side.
8) Redo 5 and 6, to advance a frame. Move the arm back as it was in frame 0 (The first frame).
9) Save the animation by pressing S.
10) Run StickPlayer, and choose your saved SMA file.
Other instructions are in the editor.
As you will see, the StickPlayer automatically interpolates between frames, based on the time multiplier for each frame. Also, as long as you have the StickPlayer, you can view anybody elses animation, with 0 loss, and a <5kb file size. (only about 1kb after zip!)
Attached is a zip containing StickAnimator.exe, StickPlayer.exe, and an example SMA file.
Enjoy
Also, please share your finished animations, as I would love to see what people have done with this
