Title: Trouble importing faceset into RPG maker 2000
Post by: ninjamitsuki on January 17, 2008, 07:02:45 PM: I'm REALLY sorry if this is the wrong forum...

There was a thread made by a person with the exact same problem from YEARS ago, and it helped me figure out how to import charasets, but I still can't import facesets.

[this is the thread I'm talking about: http://charas-project.net/forum/showthread.php?threadid=5434&forumid=4&catid=8]

Obviously I can't bump that thread back up, but I did what the OP said worked for charasets, and it worked for me, but the OP didn't say what worked for him for facesets... And the one the other guy suggested doesn't work for me... I know I'm confusing you, just read the thread to understand what I'm talking about... What I'm basically saying is what size I have to make the faceset in order for it to be able to imported into RPG Maker 2000...

Might be the same.

I switched the image to 256 bitmap right now and it still says it...

*sigh*

First of all, it's RPG Maker 2000, and I tried it as both a png and a bitmap, but it still won't work...

Post by: HobomasterXXX on January 21, 2008, 02:21:11 AM: then i have no idea what's wrong. maybe try importing another faceset and see if that works.

Post by: ninjamitsuki on January 21, 2008, 12:05:35 PM: I tried another faceset, and it still isn't working... I'm doomed, aren't I?

If the facesets do work, check to see thier dimensions, maybe they're differant than normal... for some odd reason. Anyway, if you can import the rtp ones and cant import others, attach the faceset you want to import and I'll try it on my computer and find out whats up with it.

Post by: DedlellyDeth on March 28, 2008, 05:06:58 AM: Are you using MS Paint? If so, you should know that it counts the top left corner as 0,0. If you are looking at the coordinates at the edge, it is different from RPG Maker coordinates. Try making it 191x191 instead.
Also, you can export an RTP faceset from the Import/Export Resources tool,
then fill it with the background color and edit from there.
