New here, and I've got a few questions

[mcgrnwlf79]

Hello everyone
as i'm sure you've guessed i'm a novice at progamming and things of this type. after playing around with a few games people have made with this site and the mugen communities I thought I'd try my hand at making one. Following the instructions given I eventually got a character working but I had some problems. First the palette seemed to have gotten inverted somehow and no matter what I do I can't seem to fix it. Second everything is horribly misaligned. after searching this site I found a program called openbor stats and tried to use it to adjust my alignment issues. Once I started though I found that the sprites were blank except for the select and idle sprites. This is weird because they do show up in the the game. I can't figure out where I messed up so if someone could tell me why these particular issues would come up I'd appreciate it

The pal is inverted most likely because all the character sprites have to share the same pallete.  If they dont the sprites get messed up.. Make sure each sprite of the character has the same pal and you should be fine.  The blank sprites are probally due to the offsets of the sprites when you coded it. You should read this.

I am not sure if its the most current one but just look around here and you should find it.  Hope this helps.
