Resource The Gen 9 Move Animation Project 2024-08-09

If you're using Essentials v20.1, you can use this plugin to add a search bar to the move animation editor. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get it working for v21.1.

If you're using v21, I made this move list dump so that you can really easily ctrl+F it and get the move's number.

If you have animations for GMax moves, keep in mind that there is a section reserved for Max Moves, but no placeholders for the individual moves yet, so you'll have to add new slots for them with the Battle Animation Organizer. I'd also be interested in getting those animations to add them officially, if you'd be willing to send the move exports (and any custom graphics/audio) to me.

I'm using v 21.1 anyway.
But thank you very, very much.
The gmaxmoves I planned are specific to Infernape and Serperior, I'm still tinkering with them to create different effects, but if I manage to do it correctly I'll share it, yes.
Again, you helped me a lot, a lot.

KRLW890 updated The Gen 9 Move Animation Project with a new update entry:

Z-Move update

Managed to export all the missing Z-Move animations from Reborn and convert them to the modern Essentials format. Also added an animation for Blood Moon.

This actually happened a little while ago but couldn't update it here until now for obvious reasons :P

I was wondering how do I get these animations working alongside EBDX animations? I'm using Manurocker95 Unofficial EBDXv21 port.

I made a Happy Hour animation, not sure if it would be up to standard for this pack, but I figured maybe you guys are interested in it?

Sure. If you could send me the exported .anm either over Discord (my username is krlw890) or by uploading to google drive or mediafire, we'd appreciate that. If you only used graphics / audio that already came with this package, the .anm file is all that's needed, but if added any custom graphics / audio for the animation, make sure to send those, too.

How about you try smth more built for EBDX, like this one: https://eeveeexpo.com/threads/6288/

Ummm... why does the animation for False swipes have a blue square?
I fixed it but I thought that I should mention it here.

How did you fix that?

I noticed that too, I've been meaning to put out a new update with fixes like that and a few more moves, expect that sometime within the next 24 hours.

 

[Ray_7760]

How did you fix that?

I put it in Aseprite, for some reason the pallet was like 50 squares of a transparent color or black or something? So I just deleted all of them and exported it as "PRAS- False Swips2" and then changed the current animation sheet to the new one I made.

KRLW890 updated The Gen 9 Move Animation Project with a new update entry:

New moves and common animations + formatting issues resolved

Been wanting to put out an update for a while now but it just kept slipping my mind. But we've got a new update now, adding the following animations:

Spoiler: New moves

Meteor Beam charging turn
Happy Hour
Hydro Steam
Tachyon Cutter
Mighty Cleave

Spoiler: New common animations

Snow weather
Frostbite (copied from frozen)
Drowsiness (copied from sleep)
Illusion wearing off

Frostbite and drowsiness are just copied and renamed from frozen and sleep, so it's the same...

Meteor Beam move is causing issue in v21.1 and causes the game to crash.

Works fine for me. What's the errorlog?

 

[Takakuwa]

in the battle animation editor, meteor beam animation cause the game to crash

 

[komeiji514]

in the battle animation editor, meteor beam animation cause the game to crash

Confused. Everything works fine for me when checking the editor.

 

[KRLW890]

in the battle animation editor, meteor beam animation cause the game to crash

Is it the charging animation or the actual move animation? Or both?

 

[Takakuwa]

the actual move animation

Hi! I'm having some issues when some oponents use some moves. The moves are Water Pulse, Disable, Mega Drain and Muddy Water (maybe Surf too). The bug usually occurs when opponent is using the move. An error prompt appears, then the animation plays (with old updates, it was even buggier), but, after that, all sprites goes up in screen until. (sorry for my bad english)
