Hiya! my names JetJerky!
I’m an artist, composer and animator and I’m currently working on a show ^^
i have some good progress already. the script is already done. i have a stable enough team to do production. (Right now, I’m worldbuilding + drawing out props and backgrounds.)

right now, I’m just wondering if there are ways to possibly implement lighting in wick editor? when i do production I’m most likely need to use lighting in important scenes, so it doesn’t look bland.
I feel like it’s best to ask before do anything and if not, I’d like to know other ways outside of Wckr, so I’m not completely stumped

Hello, so I reccomend not using wick editor, but using a website that the people of this forum made, https://candlestickers.app/, its way better, and you can actually add lighting, if you use the gradient correctly.

And just to note, yes you can still use your .wick files that you saved

stickmanred’s fork is here if you are interested. it technically has more practical features than candlestick, but it comes at the cost of less documentation and the assumption that you already know how all the new stuff works. both wick forks have gradients implemented in different ways, and that’s kinda your best bet with lighting - there are no 2d shaders or anything like that.

I was using stickmanred’s fork already, so I kind of have the gist of it how it works. I’m likely just going to use the gradients and do more outside the animation software. thanks :)
