I was thinking the same thing
A thing that wasn't mentioned that's pretty important is multi-hits. When doing those, between every hit, you need to make sure the hitboxes are 'refreshed', so they can hit the same target for each hit. It's in the comments, but it's fairly easy to miss if you don't see it first!
'Soon as I saw this video, I about popped off in joy. I have zero clue where to start, and I was just waiting for someone to make a tutorial on this. Thanks a million, man. 👍

Same here. I've been waiting since the game came out for a guide by someone. This is amazing
I'm loving this tutorial! Even though I made and finished a character, I didn't know about everything you mentioned or addressed in this video. And now I can probably run and work things a little better for my next characters. Thanks Bowler 😁
bless you bowler this actually motivated me to start working on my mod because i hate reading text guides but boom here you come with a video
This is a really good tutorial, and I haven't had motivation to work on something in a long time. Thank you for assisting me in taking the step towards a future I'd enjoy.
I have some experience in coding but not a ton and was waiting for a video explaining Fraytools. Thanks a million
there's more technical / numerical stuff here than one might expect by watching the trailers. Thank you for this video guide!
This game is so cool. Love how they want you to make your own characters. Never done anything on stream workshop but I may give it a to. Thanks for your tutorial
This editor is literally Adobe Animate but AWESOME I LOVE this so much
This is honestly the easiest to understand tutorial ever. Thank you Bowler!
Thank you so much; I haven’t watched the video yet, but I’ve always sucked with written guides, so I know this will help a lot.
It's fraaymaking time
thank you so much for making this, i have been having trouble finding this out on my own
This is an awesome starter guide, I come from the Rivals Modding scene, so I am used to their system, but I'd like to port my characters into fraymakers. Thanks for the guide!
I think it's pretty cool that Fraymakers is allowing custom characters, and I like how the game has its own editor. However, this does make me a little scared for Rivals. I've only recently begun making custom content for rivals, and if that community dies in favor of a newer one, I don't know what I'll do.

I think rivals will only die if rivals 2 ends up being better in every way (and that doesnt have a release date yet). For now i think theres just 2 communities (ill be it alot of people are in both)
I tried to add sound to an assist yesterday, and thanks to this tutorial, I now know what I did wrong!
Oh wow, the modding scene is so fast right now, everything's been so fun in the workshop so far.
Finally! Been waiting for someone to make a good tutorial.
Talk about a video right on time. I was struggling to find out how I had to add in sprites per frames. Could've just drag and dropped them... Thanks a lot!
ive been looking for a video like this for a few days thanks
Thanks for the great beginner's guide!
IT'S HERE!
Custom characters have the potential to make or break the game for me so I am very hopeful for the community 😊
Thanks for making this tutorial 🙏🎉
Been wanting a tutorial video
I've been hoping for a tutorial since early access dropped so I'm super grateful for this video. Any chance you could make a side video talking about Character/Move Stats, and giving a summary of what values are considered strong vs weak for the format of Fraymakers? Would help knowing how to avoid making OP characters

I'm not opposed to the idea of a video like that but I feel like that's gonna require trial and error when testing your character. I think that's one of the fun parts too.
I don’t know a thing about pixel art or animation, but I’m so hype to learn so I can make some characters
This video was extremely useful for making my first character
Spriting still kinda scares me, but this isn’t nearly as hard as I thought it was. Thanks for the guide!
Thanks for this, I want to try out the fray tool character creator so this will be a great help with starting
great Master Hand mod. I can't wait til I attempt my own workshop character
I LOVE THIS!
Thanks so much! Super helpful for my Brian Griffin
This video’s really helpful! Thx! Also, do you think you’ll plan on making an tutorial of creating stages in fraytools?
Nice, with that tutorial and the infos I'll drop some characters - and I'll start with Scorpion!
Amazing I’ll try a character!!!
Aight imma go make Rayman in Fraymaker
Thanks Bowler,That helped me
Great video!

Thx for the tutorial bowler
love this tutorial! very helpful. One problem is that I cant find the fraymakers character project so I had to start from scratch.
ok so im stuck at step 1 because it seems like none of the animations from the template work. like theyre not there. what do i do to fix this?
Thank, youre the best :D
For people designing our own sprite work, is there a recommended size the work in? Last thing you'd want to to find out your sprite size was too large/small.

depends on what size you want the character itself to be.

Same question
How do you move and zoom in on palettes in fraytools?
IS there a way to create a block move which will block an attack when My character holds up his shield?
for some reason the stand animation restarts at frame 210 Is there a way to change it?
I did the first adding part but when I enter fraymakers it's not showing my character also the contents in the character
Hey, is there a way I could size down my image or at least size down inside the game?
is it possible to make costumes with custom designs? im trying to make a guildedguy costume for my character but i cant make the slit in his helmet
How do I have the frames of an animation stop at a certain point?
is there a way to make audio play when the enemy is hit and it plays a different audio?
What I have to if i don't see the character entity. In my case i see in entityes the assist and the menu but nothing else )):
i hope you make one as well with assistant characters, it would be really helpfull
tysm for this tutorial
About the character sprites. What can be done about the sprite models that have colored backgrounds? Like I was working on doing a Jenny XJ9 and Danny Phantom mod for the game. Only confusion im getting is sprite sizes and how to zoom out within the fraytools application
When i try to publish it my button doesnt turn blue it isnt pressable basically
I’m stuck at the end of the file setup section. I did everything in the video but I did not have a custom folder so I made it with the same name his has. Then I did everything else that followed but when I copied the path into build1, the publish all button stayed greyed out. Does anybody know a fix?
When I export my project to test my character the game doesn't want to see it even when I reload the custom content does anyone know how to fix this? Edit [ok so it appeared in the game but it doesn't work]
I don't see the samples when I open fraytools template
publish all wont work for me its still greyed out
It won't be long now until 100% Accurate Fox finds out about Fraymakers.
why did doing the beginning part, when I put the character in the game, did it cause my game to always crash when I start it?
thanks for this vid
Thank you
hi! so i have an issue to where it says "output folder "build1" doesnt exist" and im not sure why? any help?
I need help you guys, everytime I hit publish it tells me the path folder that I just created doesnt exist? Any ideas?
This is going to make my life a lot easier. Does this process change for assists or is it pretty much the same?

Pretty much the same. Making an Assist is very similar to making an attack for a character
How do I make a collison box into a hitbox?
Where did you got the simple for frankie and also does it work for Rival of Aether
Hey. Once I went to test the mod on Fraymakers near the start. I found that the uploaded mod showed up but didn't seem to contain anything, and cannot be played.
You can change the fps in project settings
could someone help because I did every single step but the "publish all" is not working
Hopefully a stage tutorial will come next as there is no real tutorial on that yet.
one big issue ive come across on trying to get the character to even be read is that once I made a custom folder (and I followed all the previous steps) now fraymakers sright up wont open, it keeps closing before the title screen even shows up
Anyone else having the problem of not being able to find the "FrayToolsData" Folder?
How i get template?
Does anyone know the pixel count for making a character in fray makers? I heard it’s supposed to be 64x64 pixels but i don’t know if it’s right or not.

There's no limit, you can resize images in the editor, I mean, someone made King Dedede, and he was straight up just a 3D model turned 2D!
Is there a certain size the images/sprites should be?
so i've done everything and for some reason my character doesn't show up in Local custom content if you can help?
Hey I was wondering what you used for pixel art
How to change audio, I dried changing the ids and it just dosent work, just defaults to fraynkie’s voice
