Solved? Add [Resolved] to the topic title.
thanks for that, its a big help. theres one more thing though, i dont understand the whole sizing thing so that when i import in into rmxp the little box thing doesnt only like take half of the sprite. basically how do i know what the sizing should be?
Export the charsets in the RTP, check their sizes, and try to fit around the same. =P
each sprite should take up the same amount of blocks.
Example: Sprite Template
--- --- --- ---
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Moving Down
--- --- --- ---
| 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | Moving Left
--- --- --- ---
| 9 | 10| 11| 12| Moving Right
--- --- --- ---
| 13| 14| 15| 16| Moving Down
--- --- --- ---
Each one should take up 1 block if this is how big your sheet.
Do you get it or do you need more help?
