Map Gab / RE: Umihara Kawase

Revned's right.

APNG would be the best choice for it supports all the features GIF does + more. It also has practically no color limits and is lossless.

The major kick is that it is not very widely supported. I can't encode APNGs nor read them, so yeah. I'm aware Firefox supports it but not everyone (including me) uses it.

I get almost immediate heatup while viewing Flash movies in full quality as well.

That's a good point, but as far as I'm aware, Flash is not available to Linux users. I want the maps to be available to everyone.

Thanks Maxim.

-Animation frames have been set to 0,02 seconds, which represents one frame of the SNES NTSC 60fps standard. If the GIF is rendered correctly, you should see it almost exactly as you would in the game.

-50% transparency would work only in a PNG, which does not support animation. I wanted to keep the conveyor belts animated, which is why I resorted to GIFs. (I had another idea of having two images on top of eachother; a GIF for the conveyors and a PNG for the main map, but I am not sure if that is allowed.

-Background is not included because it serves only an aesthetic purpose, but is also only a 256x224 image that always moves with the screen; play the game to see what I mean.



Thanks for the input though.
