I hate errors.

I need some assistance: I get an Help! I am getting an "R_AddSkins: syntax error in S_SKIN lump# 0(S_SKIN)" on my character WAD."

I hate this because I cannot figure it out.

You should look at error messages more closely. It's got a syntax error in your S_SKIN lump. That means the game is unable to interpret the text you put in the S_SKIN entry. I looked in your file, and I noticed that you have nothing under the FACE variable. You must have a valid image resource name under the FACE variable.

Also, I noticed that your skin is missing its proper A and B frames, and the a and b frames below were auto-capitalized. Download the latest XWE beta to fix this.

Thank you, but where should I get my picture from? This is very confusing. Also, I have it.

Wait, what? Is it me, or does your sentence contradict itself? You were basically saying "I don't have it. Also, I do have it." Though, you probably meant to say "I don't know how to fill in the variable name, but I have my picture resource."

In that case, use the picture's lump name for the FACE variable. For example, if your face picture's lump name was FACEBOBO, you would put FACEBOBO as the FACE variable.

Okay, so the lives picture is a graphics lump. Secondly, I have the XWE beta. Third, what should I enter it as in my S_SKIN file. Also, how do you make single player?

New error! I have fixed the S_SKIN, but now every time I thok, a Signal Handler: Segment Violation() occurs. Also, this is RC1.

Remove the thokitem and spinitem definitions.

I just have done so, and I still get that SIGSEGV.
