Making Animations in CursorFX
Tuesday, March 30, 2010 by EYElene | Discussion: New Users
Hello,
I am trying to make some animated cursors but when I open AniUtil, click new job and try to open the files nothing happens.
Is there a tutorial explaining what to do to make a strip?

Unfortunately, I can't use this program anymore because it keeps shutting down on me
Now that I learned how to make all this cool stuff I'm bummed!
I've been going back and forth with tech support the last few days but so far they haven't been able to help me.
Shutting down, or locking up?
Locking up can be fixed.

What OS are you on and what bit? ex... Win 7 64 bit.

After I do one or two states I get that dreaded message "CursorFX Theme Editor has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience".
Then I have to hit ctrl/alt/delete to get out of it. I don't understand because the first few days after I bought the program it was working fine.
I'm using XP with 32 bit.

make sure you are numbering your animations correctly, sounds stupid but for aniutil it has to be done, 01 to 09 then from 10 onwards. if you dont put a 'zero' in front for the single digets it acts weird. also animations in cursor fx have a limit of 120 frames, anymore than this and it wont work and could shut down too.
cant think of any other reasons why it would shut down....other than those two, hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply. I'm not really having any trouble in Aniutil.
Just when I'm assigning the cursor states in CursorFX.
It's quite frustrating since I embraced this program and was having so much fun.
I'm actually addicted :>)

hmm, its a bit of a voilent solution, but maybe uninstall and redownload the program.......something might have happened somewhere and its not playing ball.......

Yes, I already tried that. It was ok for about five minutes and then started shutting down again. Such a sad mystery.

Just go to your CursorXp folder under programs...if that's the one you have (guessing it's the same for FX)...and make a folder called Trail and dump them in there...and then you can make some trails out of just about any image you find...even this guy --- >
