I have 16 images that represent someone throwing a ball. I want to make a fluid animation with these images. With 20 images/s the eye thinks it's a movement and not a succession of images. So I want to display 1 image every 50ms
public void fire() {
final ImageView image3 = (ImageView) gameactivity.findViewById(R.id.imageView3);
final int drawables[] = new int[] {R.drawable.fire1,R.drawable.fire2,R.drawable.fire3,R.drawable.fire4,R.drawable.fire5,R.drawable.fire6,R.drawable.fire7,R.drawable.fire8,R.drawable.fire9,R.drawable.fire10,R.drawable.fire11,R.drawable.fire12,R.drawable.fire13,R.drawable.fire14,R.drawable.fire15,R.drawable.fire16};
for (int i=0;i<drawables.length;i++) {
final int j=i;
Runnable runnable = new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
image3.setImageResource(drawables[j]);
Log.w("GAMEACTIVITY","image"+j);
}
};
gameactivity.handler.postDelayed(runnable, 50*j);
}
}
But the animation is not fluid I see the first image, then nothing and then the last one, probably because 50ms is too short to make the difference between the action of the Runnables?
EDIT Using animation drawable
ImageView image2 = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView3);
image2.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.fire);
AnimationDrawable fireAnimation = (AnimationDrawable) image2.getBackground();
image2.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener(){
@Override
public boolean onTouch(View arg0, MotionEvent arg1) {
fireAnimation.start();
return false;
}
I have another memory error. It's not the first time that happens and I really don't know how to handle it (read a lot about memory leaks but I don't think it's that)
