Sorry for the noobish question, but how i use the "Quick Animations" of MACL 2.2.
Actually I wanted to learn how to put an animated image in a window, example:

Below follows the script "Quick Animations":

#==============================================================================
# ** Systems.Quick Animations (3.01)                          By SephirothSpawn
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Description :
#
#   This script was designed to act as a GIF animation player. Because GIF
#   images aren't actually able to play in RMXP (without API), this script
#   either uses a series of images in a directory numbered OR an animation
#   like image with multiple frames placed side by side.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Instructions :
#
#   * Creating Animated Sprite
#
#     object = Sprite_Animation.new({<parameters>})
#
#   * Creating Animated Plane
#
#     object = Plane_Animation.new({<parameters>})
#
#   * Parameters
#
#     'type'   => 'A' or 'B'
#       - Type of Animation (A : Directory of images, B : Spriteset)
#     'loop'   => true or false
#       - loop (true : loops, false : plays then disposes)
#     'fs'     => n
#       - frameskip (number of frames to go to next frame)
#     'vp'     => Viewport
#       - viewport (sprite viewport)
#
#     Required For Type A
#     'dir'    => 'Graphics/...'
#       - directory of images
#
#     Required For Type B
#     'frames' => n
#       - number of frames on spriteset
#     'bitmap' => 'filename'
#       - filename in pictures folder

    self.bitmap = b
  end
end

Below follows the code of the window "Display":

#######################################################################
class Window_Display < Window_Base

  def initialize(x, y)
    super (x, y, 544, 150)   
    refresh
  end

  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    draw_face("Actor1", 0, 0, 0, size = 96)
    self.contents.draw_text(97, 0, 100, WLH, "Aqui segue uma demo")
    self.contents.draw_text(97, 0, 100, WLH + 36, "de como fazer ")
  end

 
end
#######################################################################

Now I would like to know where and how should I put the code to display the image animated.

The script has instructions on how you use, but I can not understand.

My attempt failed: :dead:

#######################################################################
self.contents.clear
    @viewport = Viewport.new(0, 0, 544, 416)
    bitmap = Sprite_Animation.new('type' = {'A'}, 'loop' = {true}, 'fs' = {0}, 'dir' = {'Graphics/teste'},'vp' = {@viewport})
    cw = bitmap.width
    ch = bitmap.height
    # Bitmap Rectange
    src_rect = Rect.new(0, 0, cw, ch)
    # Draws Bitmap
    self.contents.blt(0, 0, bitmap, src_rect)
    draw_face("Actor1", 0, 0, 0, size = 96)
    self.contents.draw_text(97, 0, 100, WLH, "Aqui segue uma demo")
    self.contents.draw_text(97, 0, 100, WLH + 36, "de como fazer ")
######################################################################

From now grateful for any help. :thumb:

I've never used that feature from MACL (yet) but as I can see, the only thing you have to do is to create the sprite like that:
Code: 
@sprite = Sprite_Animation.new(parameters)

"Parameters" must be an Hash with the following keys:
'type', 'loop', 'fs', 'dir', 'frames', 'vp', 'bitmap'.
All these parameters are explained in the script header.

If you don't know how to make an Hash, here's an example:
Code: 
hash = {'type' => 'A', 'loop' => true, 'fs' => 10, etc.}

When your sprite is created, you need to set its x and y position to whatever you want like that:
Code: 
@sprite.x = 123
@sprite.y = 321
And don't forget to update and dispose your sprite! ;)

Take care!

In the next MACL update, I will be making something so you can add a quick animation in your windows and scenes, and it handles the updating and disposing automatically.

I'll check your demo in a bit to see what your problem is.

Try this:
Code: 
# Window_Display

class Window_Display < Window_Base
 
  def initialize(x, y)
    super (x, y, 544, 150)
    refresh
    @sprite = Sprite_Animation.new({'type' => 'A', 'loop' => true, 'fs' => 0, 'dir' => 'Graphics/teste','vp' => @viewport})
    @sprite.x = 200
    @sprite.y = 100
  end

  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    # Draws Bitmap
    draw_face("Actor1", 0, 0, 0, size = 96)
    self.contents.draw_text(97, 0, 100, WLH, "Aqui segue uma demo")
    self.contents.draw_text(97, 0, 100, WLH + 36, "de como fazer ")
  end

  def update
    super
    @sprite.update
  end
  
  def dispose
    super
    @sprite.dispose
  end
  
end

I can't try it myself, because I keep getting some cache error. :S

Wouldn't your script need some modifications since he's trying to use it with RGSS2?

Edit: Nevermind, I just took a look at the script and the syntax for loading pictures is ok.

Well, stack level too deep usually has the following possible causes:

Recursivity is being used, and badly; somewhere, somehow, the stack is overflowed by excessive continuous calls.

Or...well, basically it might indicate a loop which has run amok.
