I am currently doing this Cocos2d tutorial: http://www.raywenderlich.com/1271/how-to-use-animations-and-sprite-sheets-in-cocos2d

...and get the following error messages:

I have the following files in the Resource folder:

  • AnimBear_default.png.ccz
  • AnimBear_default.plist

The texture consists of eight(8) bears named Bear1.png - Bear8.png. I have bought and done the texture in Zwoptex, latest version.

The code looks like:

-(id) init {

if((self = [super init])) {

    [[CCSpriteFrameCache sharedSpriteFrameCache] addSpriteFramesWithFile:@"AnimBear_default.plist" textureFile:@"AnimBear_default.png.ccz"];
    CCSpriteBatchNode *spriteSheet = [CCSpriteBatchNode batchNodeWithFile:@"AnimBear_default.png.ccz"];
    [self addChild:spriteSheet];

    NSMutableArray *walkAnimFrames = [NSMutableArray array];
    for (int i = 1; i <= 8 ; ++i) {
        [walkAnimFrames addObject:[[CCSpriteFrameCache sharedSpriteFrameCache] spriteFrameByName:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"bear%d.png", i]]];
    }

    CCAnimation *walkAnim = [CCAnimation animationWithFrames:walkAnimFrames delay:0.1f];

    CGSize winSize = [CCDirector sharedDirector].winSize;
    self.bear = [CCSprite spriteWithSpriteFrameName:@"bear1.png"];        
    _bear.position = ccp(winSize.width/2, winSize.height/2);
    self.walkAction = [CCRepeatForever actionWithAction:
                       [CCAnimate actionWithAnimation:walkAnim restoreOriginalFrame:NO]];
    [_bear runAction:_walkAction];
    [spriteSheet addChild:_bear];


}
return self;

}

I am completely new to Cocos2d and have been trying to search the web and tried different things but with no success :-(

Not sure if that's the issue, but you have an error in your init method. You should put all your initialization within the if((self = [super init])) { block.

So remove the first two lines from your init block (as they seem to be redudant anyway):

-(id) init 
{
    if((self = [super init])) {
        [[CCSpriteFrameCache sharedSpriteFrameCache] addSpriteFramesWithFile:@"AnimBear_default.plist" textureFile:@"AnimBear_default.png.ccz"];
        CCSpriteBatchNode *spriteSheet = [CCSpriteBatchNode batchNodeWithFile:@"AnimBear_default.png.ccz"];
        [self addChild:spriteSheet];

        NSMutableArray *walkAnimFrames = [NSMutableArray array];
        for (int i = 1; i <= 8 ; ++i) {
            [walkAnimFrames addObject:[[CCSpriteFrameCache sharedSpriteFrameCache] spriteFrameByName:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"bear%d.png", i]]];
        }

        CCAnimation *walkAnim = [CCAnimation animationWithFrames:walkAnimFrames delay:0.1f];

        CGSize winSize = [CCDirector sharedDirector].winSize;
        self.bear = [CCSprite spriteWithSpriteFrameName:@"bear1.png"];        
        _bear.position = ccp(winSize.width/2, winSize.height/2);
        self.walkAction = [CCRepeatForever actionWithAction:
                           [CCAnimate actionWithAnimation:walkAnim restoreOriginalFrame:NO]];
        [_bear runAction:_walkAction];
        [spriteSheet addChild:_bear];
    }
    return self;
}

  • \$\begingroup\$ oh my fault i used those lines when i tested, i removed it now. tests show same result, obvious i do not load the sprites. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Dec 30, 2011 at 20:18
  • \$\begingroup\$ @PeterK Did you add the files to the XCode project (using "Add files")? Copying them to the Resource folder alone is not enough, you'll have to add them to the "Resource" group in XCode as well. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Dec 30, 2011 at 20:23
  • \$\begingroup\$ yes i did. Actually i think i solved it as i found out how to save the sprite sheet without compression (.ccz) and load that i got it to work. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Dec 30, 2011 at 20:36
