PLAYa1 or PLAYA1?

Ashley The Fox · 03-09-2018

I would very much like to be informed of, how do I make my WAD characters by making frames with lowercase letters? Because every time I type in SLADE, "PLAYA1", it automatically puts "PLAYA1".

I wonder how to solve this.
Same problem with the frame ^. In addition to PLAY^1, turn PLAY\1 for NO reason.

In Slade3, click "Edit" > "Preferences..." at the top-left, click on "Editing" at the left, and enable the "Use percent encoding if needed outside of Wad Archives" option. Yes, the name makes it sound like that won't help for WAD archives, but as far as I remember, that's what made me able to put lowercase letters and other symbols in lump names.

Keep in mind that if you try to rename multiple lumps at the same time, ^ is a special character that doesn't give the lump a name with ^ in it, so you have to rename lumps to have that in the name one by one.

The sprite digit is actually not a letter.. it is a byte index. 'A' is 65, while 'a' is 97.

SSNTails What part of 'RETIRED' don't you understand?	The sprite digit is actually not a letter.. it is a byte index. 'A' is 65, while 'a' is 97.
