Hiya GMC!

This is my first time using GM4Mac, just bought a MacBook Pro and bought GM4Mac as well (which was hard, seeing I'm paying $40 on older software).

Anyways, I faced my first serious problem with it, and I was hoping that someone might have an answer that is actually a good one (I have a feeling this issue is because 7.5 is older than 8.1...)

Ok, so I open up a Dragon sprite sheet in GM8, and I get the Dragon having 8 animations, I could press preview and see how it animates.

On GM4Mac however, I upload the same pic, but instead, it opens the entire animation in a single sprite sheet, this is an absolute time waster if I have to do it all over from scratch. How do I make it work like GM8? Or is this one of the advantages GM8 has over 7.5?

Help would be massively appreciated.

Thanks!

Looks like after you choose to create a sprite, from the menu at the top, you can select File > Create from strip. Works like a charm!

Haha! I actually found that one after like 5 days from posting this topic! Forgot about that one, felt like an idiot once I found it out, things have been working quite good on GM4Mac, much better than I expected, not missing GM8 all that much really.

Also, mad respect for having Cave Story as your profile pic, mine's Fuel from Mother 3. I have a thing for pixel art.

Thanks Adam!
