How do I animate a 2D sprite and control it? Also, how do I create a 3D sprite, e.g. person-shaped with bitmap textured onto it?

to move a 2D sprite is simple once you get it down...



i hope that wasnt too vague, if it was then please reply. I'm not exactly sure how to animate sprites yet but that will move one around screen for you. I hope i helped.

It's a series of images you cycle through when you use a sprite. You keep everything the same (the sprite number, x and y locations) but you change the image number the sprite uses.

Here's code for an animated mouse using Darkbasic Classic.

Thanks guys, for all your help. P.S. Nanobrain, cheers for your friendly message, but I may be quite l-a-z-y when it comes to searching!

I'm sure he meant 3D "objects". Of course a plain with a texture could be considered a 3D sprite since the black areas can be transparent.
