Help Please!

I have used RPG Maker 2003 for the past few days now, xD. I'm not very good with it, and I only made like a few areas that suit me after over 100 tries. I decided to get some Battle Sprites and I did, but when I upload them it says either. 'Invalid Color Depth' I changed it to 256 which worked but instead of Invalid Color Depth it said 'Invalid Image Size' the sprites I'm trying to upload are..

and stuff like that, if you want examples, go to http://www.picceta.com/Rm2k3/cat-dragonball-z-battle-charsets-12.htm?page=4

I really need help, I already saw 2 Invalid Color Depth's threads on this site, but I never found the right answer because the thread creators never replied. Also, don't ask me to download stuff like Paint.net or Graphics Gale, cause I'm using a Guest Account.

Hmm looks like the battle char image size is incorrect, i think.

wait let me check.

EDIT: the image is sized incorrectly. Change the dimensions to 144x384 with MS paint.(use Ctrl + E)

Thanks, that worked perfectly. I didn't think my problem would be something as simple as that

Yeah, people usually stick in their name in the battlechar, thus making it bigger(sometimes).

I have another question. I just made a area [From Picceta Sprites] but when I go into the area, I can't move.

Huh? I don't understand your question?

I just made a map, but when I went to test my game, I went into the map, but my character couldn't move.

okay, make sure the tile your character is standing on (or the tiles surrounding it) are passable(or marked as "O") in the database.

Thanks. That worked as well. I know I'm bothering you, but I have one more question. How do I turn this sprite into a monster. http://www.picceta.com/Rm2k3/img-armoured-krillen-156.htm that's the sprite, but how do I turn them into a monster or how can I get my own character to fight that one.

Hmmm....  you take out one "frame" of the sprite. Somehow make it face the other way(try to do it in paint). and import it as a monster...(sorry this one is not detailed).

I think I can do that. Um, also, do I do ALL of them? Does the Width, etc matter in this one?

No, just pick one of the frames that looks like it makes sense to have as a monster, and, no I don't really think size really matters for monsters.

It didn't work. I was able to flip it, but I had a white background, should I try it with a colored one this time?

Yeah make it with a colored one BUT... don't make it a color that the monster has too. (ie. a monster's eyes are black. don't make the background black(for transparency) or else the monster's eyes will be transparent, too).

It said Invalid Image Size.

... uh oh. Then I can't help...

did you save the battlechar, cut out one of the frames, and paste it in a new paint file?

Yeah, I did. I have one more question tho, I mean two. How do you make a game intro and when I made a event, the person that was meant to talk kept repeating the same thing, how do I stop that?

make a switch and have it turn after the message is said, make a new page and check the Switch is on thing at the top left corner and select the switch you just turned on and leave the page blank. ta da

Can you be a bit more detailed?
How do I turn on the switch? I stumbled across RM03 a few days ago

At the end of your scene, go into "switch operations" and turn on a new switch called 'end of scene' or something to that extent. Click on the new page button, and under the preconditions box on the left-hand side, check a switch box and set it to your 'end of scene' switch. What Lazer Kirby said is about as simple as it gets. If it still doesn't make sense I can post pictures.

Pictures would be good, I'm okay at most of the aspects of RPG Maker 03. I don't know switches and Variable only.

Okay, someone else just asked the same question, so click on this.

Thanks, but you replied like 2 days ago. I found my answer. Thanks anyway.
