ok, thought so. to start with, do you know your way around in the database?

[dracohaze]

I mean how do you change the titlescreen from the default?

First, you must open the database.
Second, you must open the "system" page inside of the database; it should look like this:
HERE

After clicking the "SET" button next to the chosen title, it will open this:
HERE

After clicking on the title you would like to use, click the "OK" button. The chosen title will then show up as a titlescreen during TESTPLAY.

But also, how do you upload one?

First, you have to open the "import/export resources screen":
HERE

Then open the "title folder", which is located along the left side of the screen, along with the other resource folders. After opening it, it should look like this:
HERE

Click the import button and select the picture you would like as a title.
After selecting the title, click "open". The selected picture is now selectable as a titlescreen in the database.

Any questions?
(kinda brief, because I'm in a hurry. Sorry it took so long, I was busy)

Oh c'mon make a title screen and save it in your rtp forlder.
I do that.

Thats bad, and you shouldn't do that. Import everything.

[xanaxx]

what size does the image have to be?

[monster-doog]

320 by 240 I think.

[xanaxx]

it said 'invalid color depth'..what should I do?

[dracohaze]

it said that when you tried to import it?

If so, it means that you saved it as the wrong file type.
Reopen the titlescreen in paint and re- "save-as" it as a
PNG file.

If it doesn't work then, show me the pic, and I'll see if
it's some other problem.

I can't get it to work...here i'll make a sample

that's the message it gives me when I upload the pic


here's the pic


i had to delete the other ones i had, but this image is 320x240 PNG.  what else could be wrong?

[dracohaze]

did you save it as a png?

[xanaxx]

yes

[dracohaze]

It didn't work for me wither, I had this problem before.
Trying to remember what I did to fix it
....
It worked for me! I just transfered the picture to
"character maker 1999" and re-saved it as a png...
I'll continue to try and fix the problem, but I'm not
sure if I can get it to work again

[xanaxx]

thats odd.   what program do u make titlescreens with?

[dracohaze]

I don't make my own... but i used to use paint
Don't understand why it isn't working :whoa:

[xanaxx]

any1 else know what the problem is?

[Blaze]

Hmm ... try JPG instead of PNG

If you can change the file to JPG then do it. See if it works when you import it in JPG form.

[dracohaze]

I believe I tried that, it still didn't work
