i am making a zero (the robot from sonic adventure that chases amy) wad with the help of my friend lance88

i am having trouble figuring out hotdog's tutorial as i don't know how to link to the face pic. or the face name.

can anyone help me?
 
Basically, all you have to do is load an image into your wadfile and rename it to whatever you called the face. You do the same for the facename.

ex)

Code: 
name = Tails2
face = SBOTLIFE
facename = STTAILSN
ability = 1
normalspeed = 36
thrustfactor = 3
accelstart = 192
acceleration = 50
spin = 1
startcolor = 112
endcolor = 127
jumpheight = 100

You must load 2 images in and rename one to SBOTLIFE (face) and the other to STTAILSN (facename).
 
what need help with is an error i get whenever i start the wad:

"R_InstallSpriteLump: Bad frame charectors in lump 2516"

What do i do?
 
I'm sure the problem is the order you put those files in. Try looking at another wad, and then follow the order it came in.

BTW, 1000 freakin' awesome post!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah baby! You can do it!!!!

Good going chaos! ^_^

I was following the ristar wad, there are only the spinnig files and the PLAYa and PLAYb files
 
Try to look at a wad that isn't 2d, as its more reliable. Also, files PLAYa and PLAYb need to first be renamed to something like PLAAa and PLAAb, so that it wont get confused with the origilan PLAYA at the top. Then get a HEX program to rename them back to PLAYa and PLAYb.

Hehe, you're almost catching up to me. ;)

Personally, I'm not really into hex editing.
 
Open up the wad. In the letters side, go all the way down, look for PLAAa and PLAAb, and rename them back to PLAYa and PLAYb. That's it.

I am doing so...


EDIT: I renamed them, it still says the "R_install... ....bad sprites in lump 2516" thing...

Do i need PLAYL, PLAYM, PLAYN, and PLAYO, Also know as the spin sprites?
