I tried using your fork but found that there might be a missing function call to newImage here

I don't understand what's the problem. please explain. I didn't touch the part of init.lua

diff \animX_old\init.lua \animX\init.lua:

39c39
< 	pos=i
---
> 	pos=i or 1
235c235,239
< 	table.insert(animx.animObjs,setmetatable(animation_obj,{__index=Animation}))
---
> 	setmetatable(animation_obj,{__index=Animation})
> 
> 	-- Always add to global list for animx.update() to work
> 	table.insert(animx.animObjs, animation_obj)
...

I don't use XML file to load animation data, so can't test the part.

You're right, apologies for bringing that up here. I should create an issue for the animX repo instead.

I'm not sure when/if besnoi will fix your issue -- my pull request is left untouched for 3 months already...

I propose you to report the issue in my repo: https://github.com/unreal79/animX -- I'll try to help. But you have to provide me with XML file (or small sample project), since I don't use XML in my projects (and am too lazy to learn :-) ).
