To make your own characters


Alright, well, we need more characters instead of having the same characters in the different places of the world map. Sure, we have resources for new characters, but wouldn't you like to make your own? Well, I'm a nice guy, so I'll give you a website to make your own guys.

copy that, put it in your address bar, and voila! Right?

Wrong.

Alright, the problem isn't making the character, its getting him into your game, so how do we do it?


Well, if you notice in the little corner where you character is (The one where that once you click an option he/she changes) theres a small gray box with all these symbols that are foreign to almost everyone. Click it. Hit save, and put it into your project folder. Go to graphics and put it into the folder named characters.

Sweet! Now it will work...right?

Wrong.

When you click him, only a small section appears.

Well this is fixable. You must go to resource at the top next to database. export a char set to MSpaint or paint. Then in a different file name, export your single character set to paint as well. Go to paint, open up your single character made in that funky website. Then highlight him. (Make sure that theres no extra white space around him!)

Now copy him. Open up the whole character set you exported. Now paste him over one of the characters. Then import him. Make sure the color around all of them are the same so it won't be around him when he walks.

Are we done?

Yes!

Any questions, send me a msg or comment.

My email is Novabolt@yahoo.com

hope this helps anyone who wants new characters!


Ok, i just learned that putting a $ before your character save name will make it readable, and you won't have to export! HAZAA!
