Hey, @wormylmao are you the same person who commented in this video?

If you are, great to see you on the forums. If it's not you, please ignore my previous comment.

I haven't used Adobe before but my understanding is that if you use the fromSparrow method in FlxAtlasFrames it should work.
https://api.haxeflixel.com/flixel/graphics/frames/FlxAtlasFrames.html#fromSparrow.

So something like this:

        // Helpers.hx
	public static function loadFrames(path: String): FlxFramesCollection {
		return FlxAtlasFrames.fromSparrow(
			'assets/images/$path.png',
			'assets/images/$path.json' // this could also be .XML file too
		);
	}

And then you can load it into your in your sprite like this:

        // Player.hx
	public function new(x: Float = 0, y: Float = 0) {
		super(x, y);
		frames = Helpers.loadFrames("characters/yeti");

NOTE: It doesn't have to be in the constructor.

Ha, glad I was able to help. Happy to help you move the character as well but I'll give you some time to figure that out first :)
