I have an animated sprite, which should show a bit above the ground.
However, I cannot make it to showw up to begin with...what am I doing wrong?
Code:
[BG2, Ground Lights]
type = anim
actionno = 2
start = 0,0
delta = 0.65,1
mask = 1
velocity = 0,0
;tile = 1,0
;tilespacing = 0,0

[Begin Action 2]
2,0, 0,0, 8
2,1, 0,0, 8
I already disabled the ground sprite, tried both mask=0 and mask=1, also tried to move the animated sprite around, but no success... :(
Please help me there. Thanks in advance!

Make sure that the first part is positioned below all the layers you want it to be in front of in the def file. Also make sure the position of the sprites in the sff file is in a spot where it would show up on screen.

Edit: Also check to see if their layer numbers are 2,0 and 2,1 just to be sure.

Two other things you can check:
1.That you didn't give the numbers 2,0 and 2,1 to more the one layer each
2.There is no other animation 2

You can check both of those easy by giving them different numbers.

Well, I didn't added many sprites. I only have 3 sprites so far, so that is out of question...

Are you sure the sprites were converted to .pcx?
Have you tried changing the start number in the coding instead of .sff?

Yes, they are PCX files.
And what do you mean with changing the start number?
Do you mean I have to change [BG 2] to [BG 1] or something?

No in your coding where it says start 0,0 have you tried changing that?
Does your other sprites have a specific start position in their coding?
If that animation suppose to be lights flickering where is the trans coding?

-Oh, that. I already tried that, but no success either...
-Yes, they have, and they work fine. The nonworking sprite originally had a specific start position as well, but since that didn't worked, I decided to change it to other values.
-The original didn't had trans coding for light flickering either (FYI, I'm using the ground lights found in Balrog's SF2 stage).

Edit: remove the comma as well.

Hahah that's what I get for switching to characters for a bit, forgot you can't do stuff like that. Shoulda noticed that right away. Yeah keep your def names simple. :P
