Error when I use my wad

[Jewel the Mystery]

I trie to make a wad, there are some sprites I added yet:

I save them as bmp, and when i run the game and go to my wad, then a error appears:

signal_handler(): segment violation

what does it mean? please help me

To test them make sure you have something to fill the other sprite places whilst making the wad and also make sure ***a1 etc isn't ****A1 right at the end of the wad file.

my wad calls jewel. so i should write JEWEA1 or JEWA1? Sry I don't really got it cause i'm german ^^'

The game needs all of the sprites. The last 2 sets of sprites end with "a" and "b"; this is a problem because not all WAD editors support lower case letters.

 

[Jewel the Mystery]

Does xwe support it?

 

[MoonDeLaAxel]

yes... just get the latest beta... Monster, will you do the honers?

 

[Sky Ninja]

Nope, I will.

thanx but i have the latest version of xwe. Ok now I renamed all sprites to JEWLA1, JEWLA2A8... and the chara sprite to JEWLCHAR. But the error appears again and again. i really don't know what's wrong with it T_T

yes... just get the latest beta... Monster, will you do the honers?

I can't, because I have no idea what you mean by "honers". And obviously Sky Ninja's already done it before I was there to help.

ALL of the character sprites (minus Character select, life icon and life icon text) need to have the same spriteset name.

 

[Jewel the Mystery]

So i have to rename SBOSHLIF to JEWLHLIF?

 

[Monster Iestyn]

No you don't because I think that's either the Life Icon or the Life Icon Text... Whichever one it is, you don't have to change the first 4 letters to match the first 4 letters for JEWLA1, JEWLA2A8, JEWLA3A7, JEWLA4A6, JEWLA5, JEWLB1, and so on until JEWLb5 (which is not the same as JEWLB5)...

 

[Jewel the Mystery]

But the name i have to rename to JEWLNAME, don't i.

 

[Fawfulfan]

No, you don't. You can name it anything you want. For instance, if you chose to name it "GOOBER" for some weird reason (not suggesting you do, just an example...) It'll still work, as long as you put a line in S_SKIN saying "facename = GOOBER". As for the character sprites, they can be anything as long as every single one of them has the same four letters at the beginning.
