Its not just the frames from A1 to A5 that give me that error, its wathever sprite I put after the S_SKIN command. I thought the S_SKIN command is suposed to be before any sprites? Help?

EDIT: I fixed it, just added a leter to the name and it worked, its BIGYA1 now. Weird though

The problem is:
The sprite names must be in this formular:
"NAMEXx"

NAME = the 4 characters set for your character
X = the frame
x = the sprites rotation

Since your sprite is named "BIGXx" it takes "BIGX" as the four characters for your custom character and "x" as the frame but there is no rotation, so it will load it as a bad sprite name and the sprites will not show up in the game (and it might crashes the game).
You need to rename your sprites for example "HBIGXx" so it takes "HBIG" as the four characters "X" as the frame and "x" as the frames rotation.

This page on the wiki wich is 10 years old now might explain it better than I did.
