  1. Any chance someone has created a mod/hack that imports Roy from fe6 into fe8? Roy is one of my favorite characters and i would love to see this sort of minor hack. If something like this already exists I would appreciate a nudge in the right direction. Thanks!

  2. Okay, first off, these sprites are completely unusable on account of their skewed sizing. There are resize artifacts everywhere. Mugs need to be able to fit in a 96x80 px hackbox and have exactly 16 colors (15 + 1 background color) or less.

    Here are some sprite resources. Here's how to format shit in Usenti.

    1) Keep your sprites at 100% zoom - that is, the original default size. Don't try to fix things by resizing it with skew/stretch. There should be a zoom in/out function in Paint in case you can't see things clearly enough. Additionally, to keep from having to zoom in/out all the time to view it at 100%, there should also be a Thumbnail function, as well, which should open up in a separate popup window.

    2) Invest in an image hosting service like Imgur, Gyazo, etc. That way, you can keep all your stuff in one place and have permanent links to share and post with. To post an image, use

    [img=IMAGE LINK HERE]
    3) Save as PNG. You could probably save as a GIF, too, but that's kind of outdated, and unless you're animating, it's not really necessary.

    4) Crop your sprites. You have a really large canvas around the Lloyd/Hector splice that's pretty unnecessary.

    Until that's fixed, it's a bit hard to critique the actual quality of your splices, since it's pretty difficult to tell where the errors might be on account of all the artifacts.

    Thanks for the feedback, i only started this whole hacking thing like a week ago so theres hopefully going to be a steep learning curve lol
