Thanks for finding the info out for Linux users. I updated the OP, hopefully now all the users will be able to switch to HG/SS sprites.
I actually tried with animated sprites at some point and it sort of worked. In Shoddy Battle 2 there is a basic 2 frame animation, and unless anyone has ripped the full animated HG/SS sprites as gifs then I won't be attempting any other gif support
What do you mean? The back sprites of all the Pokemon has always stayed the same ever since the release of DP. If you want animated sprites, you have to do someting else.
Well, the Pe2k Sprites were .GIF. So, I don't think .GIF works. Like I said before and bearzly said, Shoddy Battle 2 should be able to support the 2 frame animation.
Statigar, when you tried the animated PNGs, did it come out clean or were the pictures choppy? Also, did you animate the sprites yourself, or did they come animated?
What exactly was wrong with them? I don't have these sprites since I've yet to use either of them. I am going to need their sprites as they appear in Shoddy now in order to fix them due to dimension issues.No? Gengar's back sprite is not updated and gastrodon's also.
I have XP and I see no Shoddy Battle folder in the Application Data Folder.
How to fix??
