RPGM2K3 SPRITE SIZE

Posts

Pages: 1
I'm trying to import sprites made by the CharaGenerator as place holders until I can get the actual ones I need, but everytime I try, the import manager gives me an error saying the image size is invalid.

Tried checking 2K3's help file, onl to find that there wasn't one.

So, my question is, what size are the CharSet, BattleCharSet, and FaceSets all supposed to be, respectively?

Open the rtp and look at the properties of each of these sprites, you'llsee it(I don't know them, by heart!).
I feel like bashing my head against my desk now... My gods, and I'm the smart one of my family. o.e

Many thanks, mate.

No problem!
Well, uh, the problem changed, and I'm not sure I should post another topic or not, so I'm just going to say the new problem here. Still has to do with the image though.

Changed the size, fix one problem, now the error says,'Unsupported PNG image'... H.a.l.p.? x.x I don't like bothering you guys for this stuff but I can't find any solutions. >.<

Could be pretty many things i suppose, once error i would regularly make when importing is : forget to select the right category before, ex. charsets(left column, if i want to import a charset, etc., if this can be of any help.........?
You've most likely used the incorrect bit-depth for your .png image. Most image programs will save it as 32-bit by default, when it needs to be saved as 8-bit to work with rm2k3.

Not sure what image editing software you're using, but Paint.NET (a free, very functional and relatively simple image editor) will prompt you to choose what bit-depth to save the image as when saving .png images. Would recommend using it for spriting etc.
Chana, I was choosing the right category. I thought of that too, so I went back and double checked, and nope. |:

Narcodis, thank you. That worked beauifully.
I usually make mine 256 color bitmap. It ALWAYS works! Try it and you'll see! But since your using charas generator, there may be an outline when using it. So, try and recolor the outline for it to look WAY better! O.K.?
