New forum theme up and running!
There are tutorials about this.But to make something very long to something pretty short:Go to the complete resource.Search for "Template".Download template. (There is no real template for monsters - it's kinda easy to do after all. Monster and then a single colour background)Open template in paint.(Optional: Copy the template and paste it into a new paint window - because some templates have a set pallette already which can screw pictures).Open up the sheet with sprites that you want.Copy/Paste the sprites into the template so that they fit. Also try to make them look smooth together. Like having them stand on the same height so they don't glitch around.When you are done - you have 2 options.1. Save the file as a 256c BMP with paint (or any other program you might be using)2. Download Irfanview from the internet. Copy the intire picture into Irfanview(Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V) Then go to "Image" > "decrease colour depth" > choose "256"(or less if you want).Irfanview doesn't **** the colours like paint does, so your resources will look a bit better.And I think that's it.
Hmmm from all the things I have read about this... It doesn't seem like it's going to go well. But hey this is your first time right? Don't worry about it everybody makes mistakes and such their first time. Story - I'm not seeing alot of story here, so the story is the Kingdom Hearts people go to Twilight town because two people they have seen before tell them to or something like that?Characters - Some of the characters you have that are playable sound good but some don't make sence when you play as them.Like, you say Roxas and Axel are playables. But didn't Axel die at the end of the game? How did he come back? Roxas had become one with Sora at the end of the second game I thought. So how does that work having Sora and Roxas fighting together in the same party?Resources - So far from looking at the screenshots and such... It doesn't look to good.The Roxas faceset yes I know you have heard this over 9000 times but it doesnt match the rest of characters.And if the game takes place after the second. Why does Sora and Riku have facesets from the first game?Anyway I could go on and on about finding things that don't work with this game. But I won't seeing as how its your first attempt at it. Ever need any help, go ahead and ask me or anybody else that would like to help out. Cause hey I might be making a rpg right now, but you captured my attention with it being a Kingdom Hearts game. Keep it up. For Roxas and Axel, you'd have to wait til I release the full game. Trust me I didn't bring them back without an explaination. Axel is explained at the end of the demo and incase my automatic warp after you rescue everyone doesn't work go back to the first screen of Twilight Town and look for a white monster type guy. Fight him and then watch the scene. I'll fix the warp bug later. As for facesets I'll redo them if I can find good ones and if I do it'll be fixed in demo two.
OK so here's the thing, I found ,thanks to one of you on here, some excellent spritesheets that includes facesets. Now just when I think I found the Holy Grail I ran into another problem. I couldn't sprite to save my life. Seriously, it may be because of my terrible depth preception but I really suck. The sprites I use now are perfect compared to the ones I tried to make. Now facesets are a little bit easier for me but they suck too. So yeah if you could please help me out it'd be great. Sorry guys but I just really suck at animation.
Well for one a KH2 battle chara of Riku as those of you who have played my game can clearly see. Matchable facesets. I found some of KH2 Sora on here so I'm good to go with him. Oh yeah and a Jack Sparrow battle chara. I wanna do the Port Royal world and a Davy Jones monster that I can use as a boss and yeah I think that's pretty much it. Whatever any of you can provide me with it'd be much appreciated.
