    uh.., ha..?

    If adding new sprites is what you mean.., then hex is what I suggest...

    Well, I tried this to get a pokemon from a site for a ROM hack that I am making, but then the image comes up and it's glitchy. The bottom half is all glitchy while the top half is fine. Anyone know what the problem is?

    I followed the directions and saved image, put my new sprite over it, then imported sprite.

    What Turtwig looked like in paint when I copy-pasted him onto te sprite I wanted to replace:

    Spoiler:


    What it looked like when I imported:

    Spoiler:


    Can someone PLEASE point out what I am doing wrong?


    Do you mean the pal is messed up?(the pic was blurry)
    If then in UNZL:
    1)Goto import and select the turtwig,
    2)Then press write to rom.
    3)A window will open, saying sprite import options(or something like that.
    4)Then also tick the import pallete option.


    And your done!

    ammmmmmm, whene i click save as that not saving \=

    I don't think anyone can understand this.. make your question clearer.

    OK...

    so i've been messing around with UNLZ and found that some sprites are easy to replace and some aren't. I'm able to replace squirtle and its' evos with piplup and its' evos with great success, but i'm having trouble replacing back sprites. they always turn out looking like this:

    Spoiler:


    Anyone have an answer? Anyone?

  • You know, to take a picture of the screen, you can jut press the "Print Screen SysRq"
    button next to"F12".

    And you have to erase the picture before you can paste it over.
    I've sent you a pack of sprites. Check your PM's

    Yes I see the button but nothing happens when I press it.
