How to make a moving background

manglemix

I've seen games come and go from the featured section but there's one thing that bothers me, HOW DO YOU MAKE A MOVING BACKGROUND. I have made it before but its low quality. If I figured out I will make AWESOME GAMES!!!! Sorry for bragging. But seriously HELP ME please.

backdrops can't move, you can only make then switch, but making you backdrop to a gif, and make it switch those backdrops, it makes it look like it's moving.

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/24803406/ has(is) a moving background. You need to loop trough still backgroundss

To make a large (larger than the stage) moving background and still have it be high quality, you'll need an SVG image. Upload it to a sprite, then also create a costume for that sprite that's just 1x1 pixels. Then to make the large background be full size, do

switch costume to [1x1 pixel v]
set size to (100)%
set size to (1000)% // play with this value until you get a good size
switch costume to [svg backdrop v]

Also use

go back (1000) layers

To make sure you background sprite is in the back.

Then to scroll, just use motion blocks like any other sprite

change x by:(5)
change y by :(2)

The topic would have been bumped if the creater of the topic had not had their question answered. Thus the topic is dead “necro” meaning dead. You also posted over a year after the last post. And in that last post, the same thing as what you wanted to explain was explained in words withut advertising your own project (the project was relevant so that is OK except that it was just summarizing something that somebody had already said.)

So to sumarize, the topic was dead and you posted, thus you necroposted.
Sorry about the quotes not working correctly
