Hey there everyone. I am having some difficulty with animations and changing character sprite. So my character needs to change its character sprite at the same time as I show an animation. But for a very brief second you see some flickering and I used to be able to do this in old rpg makers no problem without this flickering. Am I doing something wrong or is this just the engine itself? I even have a preloader loading all the resources for me ahead of time to and that doesn't make a difference. I show an animation and then change the sprite back right away. I have even tried not waiting in the animation and waiting manually with the wait command and then changing it sooner but that still does not help. Like I said I have successfully done this in rpg maker vx and ace with no flicker. This is the first time where eventing has stumped me. Here's a video with the flickering.



and here's a sample of the eventing: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yjkm4yx81fyfhov/Screenshot 2018-04-17 21.14.07.png?dl=0
