Changing sprites

[Spyro Cool]

Hi! I was wondering if anyone knows how to changes sprites -like changing Sonic's eyes/fur and giving him clothes (like my avatar)- easily? I've tried the wiki but, if I'm honest, I have no clue to what it's going on about. Thanks!

Well, first you grab the sprites from the .plr file, taking Sonic as an example. Use XWE/SLumpEd/SLADE to do that. Then, open it up in MSPaint and just... edit from there. Then stick the sprites in a new WAD file (or just copy Sonic.plr and rename it to the .Wad file type), write up the S_SKIN and OBJCTCFG (the wiki elaborates on this) and then you're done.

Oh, and you'll need to make 173 frames worth of sprites for your character to have average amount of needed sprites. Just a warning.

Now... this is gonna take a long time... and I have to do 2 characters.

Also, do you know how I'd change the names?

EDIT: Ok, I've changed my mind. Hopefully someone will take up my request from my sig!
