Code: Select all

local frame = animation:getFrameInfo() -- returns the frame quad, not the frame number
-- or
local frame = animation.position -- returns the frame number
This assumes that "animation" is an object returned by anim8.newAnimation.

If you wish to draw the quad after calling getFrameInfo, you could do the following

Code: Select all

love.graphics.draw(your_animation_texture, frame, x_position, y_position )
