Umm, the one you posted is transparent.

Where'd you get the iconset though - I would be surprised if it wasn't transparent to begin with.

Looks like transparency glitches up top...

I put 2 together to make a Really BIG one lol so I lost Transparency

Well, I think you need to give us the copy of the iconset before you tried making it transparent.

I'm sorry I didn't realize I did that lol here is one that has not been messed with for transparency

You're supposed to copy icons out of that in an image editor and remove the border that way. You don't use it wholesale; you crop it out or copy only the icons you need/want. And don't import it in the program either, move it manually.

I dont have an image editor that works well only paint. and so far I have used a very large amount of the icons on that sheet, I tried a few things for making it work transparent and it didnt work thats why I'm asking if someone can do it for me because I can't seem to do it right

I tried it in Paint.net but using the magic wand tool it took ten minutes to freeze. And it's to the size where the program refuses to zoom in more than 200% and the selection appears offset 6 pixels above where it should be. Rectange select and cropping work fine however. You may need to split it into multiple files somehow first. But like I said, it's not to be used wholesale. You just take the icons you need/want. For comparison, should I upload my iconset(with the Samurai icons blacked out)?

srry this is so difficult, if I post the sections I know I need could you crop that together transparent? I would cut it into multible files, I'm just not pixel savy at all lol srry all im good at is recoloring and head cropping
EDIT: forgot to say, I mostly need the potions, stones/crystals, and the weapons since im using Tenkentia SBS

If you could provide links to where you originally found the two iconsets, it would probably be easier. I suspect the only reason the transparency is off in the first place is because you opened the iconset in Paint, which converted the transparency to the same white that is used in the icons. Just get Paint.NET, combine the two originals in there, and you'll probably be fine.

oh ya ok thats easy the first one is the RTP for RMVXA and here is the link to the second one http://vxresource.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/bigset.png

I was having trouble getting it uploaded, so I put it in a .rar. If you don't have WinRAR, get it. It's free.

Also, I hope you know who the artists are for that iconset. The person uploading stuff at the site you got it didn't make it and doesn't seem to give credit for anything, so I would not use anything off that site unless I had independent knowledge of who created the resources.

BloodyChaos · July 31, 2012, 02:00:59 PM

I got winrar

have to have it for emulators XD. thnx for the heads up, I didnt even notice thank you lol I keep a list of credits I wrote him down I'll figure it out and post it on here. and thank you so much no I can play my game without seethrough icons XD
