Spritegrabber and CBEffects?

Gymbyl Coding

Is it possible to use Spritegrabberand CBEffects?

that can greatly improve performance.

I’ve tried the following:

return spriteSheet:grabSprite("smoke.png", size, size) Runtime error SpriteGrabber.lua:234: attempt to index local 'clips' (a number value)  
#2

It appears to me like what you’re having is an issue with SpriteGrabber, not CBEffects, since the error is referring to a line in SpriteGrabber.

So try getting a working SpriteGrabber object and then placing that in the build function (at least I think you’re using that in the build function, since you have the return there).

(as a side note, I’d advise you not to use SpriteGrabber - it appears that it uses the deprecated sprite library and is thus going to be incompatible with Corona soon, as they’re about to remove it)
