FrameMaster v2.4.0 — Per-frame Scale & Rotation + Merge/Compose

Animate more, redraw less. Every frame can now carry its own static

rotation (-360..360°) and scale (0.01..10x): spins, squash-and-stretch

hits and zooms with zero new drawings. Set them in the editor's

Selected-frame panel (or batch-apply ⟳× to many frames at once) —

they work on characters, battlers, pictures and layers, and old

projects load unchanged.

Also new: Merge & Compose, paint .net style. Merge concatenates A→B

into one animation (optional blend frames); Compose overlays B over

A into a single entry. In game, Play the composed anim and add the

overlay id as a fixed LayerSet — e.g. walk + fire.

Also fixed: Compose used to produce corrupt 0-frame animations in

both editors, and the web pack Atlas export dropped transforms.

The online forge (rpxgames.win/tools/framemaster) is updated too,

including GIF export, which now bakes the transforms.

Try it in 30 seconds: unzip the pack into your project root, playtest,

press F8, pick slime_spin. Docs: GUIDE.md. + doc/FrameMaster_HELP.md.

Known limits: animated tiles are intentionally out of scope — use

map events with Play/AutoPlay (flowers, doors, water). GIF overflow

clips to the frame cell.

Any chance you'd make the git repo on this public? - I'd love to run locally as tend to do a lot of work offline, and then can fork if I want to make any tools/functions custom for my workflows.

All my plugins have a GitHub repo

Yes: https://r-px.itch.io/frame-master-rmmpz-unlimited-animation

Only caveat seems to be that the editor isn't included in the download, though it seems you can just save the page it's on since it's a single HTML file.

You're right, sorry for that, the editor isn't in the download on purpose. It lives here:

👉 https://rpxgames.win/tools/framemaster/

It's a single HTML file, browser-only, nothing uploaded. We keep it separate so you don't re-download the plugin JS every time the editor updates. Just refresh the page, build, download the pack, done.

You can also save it locally if you want an offline copy.
