Mewtwo-EX's TCard Program Official Thread

[mewtwo-EX]

No, not at all. I've added the new sprites, and allowed for larger Pokemon sprites in general. Not sure this deems an update tho...I'll update the thread when I've made more changes.

I can't find the external sprites download

 

[mewtwo-EX]

Yeah, they're actually in the ZIP file that's attached. It actually explains this in Post 1. Simply download the ZIP, extract all the files, and the program should be ready to go!

Larger sprites? Yay! Now we can stick in Dorapion! Here, these are the official sprites that D-Man and Gridiron cleaned up.

I'm currently working on cleaning up a sprite of the new grass starter, then I'll do pixel-overs of the other two, and I might post them later.
EDIT: Well, I finished the sprite of Naetoru, although by quality, you can't really call it a rip. I tried.

Next up, pixel-overs of Hikozaru and Pocchama! (Later, I'm going to dinner soon.)

 

[mewtwo-EX]

Well, I've added some of the DP sprites to sprite_custom.gif. Unless people want others in their TCard requests, or I get bored, I don't think I'll be adding the others until the games are released (in Japan). Anyway, the program has been updated, so people who feel so inclined can make their own sprite_custom.gif including as many DP sprites as they with.

Have fun!....assuming it will upload. I'll get it up eventually, hopefully tomorrow (PC being finicky). In the mean time, you could download the Complete version via eMule if you have it. See post 1 for eD2K links.

I suppose it's smart to wait until we have all of them. But don't forget, there will always be those who don't feel like waiting. I can't wait to have the program with bigger sprites, this will be kewl!
BTW, if you want, I could do some pin-ups of the fourth-gens?
EDIT: Oh, dear god, I found some transparency creepiness! The Shiny Deoxys (a) [Custom Pokémon 11] has a messed up outline due to a transparency error. Someone plz fix that? And, on another subject, why are the custom Pokémon sprites 16-37 a fading animation of Umbreon changing colors?

Well, as soon as I can get the program uploaded to PC, you will be able to use bigger sprites. The fading Umbreon was for a TCard request I did a while back, and has been removed in the update. I could fix the transparency on Shiny Deoxys, but it hasn't been requested in my TCard shop, so I'm not inclined to do so (I'm lazy XD). You get points for finding transparency errors on the main sprites tho (anything besides sprite_custom) so keep your eyes pealed.

4th gen pinups: I'll get around to them. I did make a program for ease of creation. It's somewhere in the ATCM and Lounge...
Edit: I found it and quick linked it in Post 1 near the bottom. I highly suggest you check it out!

 

[BuoyselLover]

You made a pinup proggy? Kewl! I'm definitely checking that out!

 

[mewtwo-EX]

It's really basic. Make sure you read the Help file because the controls are a bit strange. It also needs to be loaded with a GIF image externally, and the file name is in the Help file.

....lol. Someone voted for ------------- in the poll.

 

[BuoyselLover]

xD That's hilarious! So, I need a GIF for the pinups? That's fine. I haven't even tried it out yet xD
EDIT: NOOOOOOO!!!!!!! I tried it, and it won't load mah GIF! Does it have to have a certain name? I checked the thread, but didn't see anything regarding a specific GIF filename...

 

[mewtwo-EX]

Herm...I guess I forgot to mention it in the Help file. The GIF needs to be "sprite.gif". I've edited this into the necessary post as well.

 

[Dragon_Master131]

I still can't figure out how to use shiny pokemon

 

[mewtwo-EX]

Note that shiny pokemon can only be used on the large pokemon sprites. Not the mini sprites. Try using TCard 4.0. Right click on the ? that says "Normal RS Hoenn" in the upper left box. Shiny should be one of many choices. If you get a drop down saying only: Normal, Custom, Hide, Show...then you're clicking on mini sprites.

 

[Dragon_Master131]

okay, i figured out shinies. I also found a couple of errors in the latest version.

If you get a drop down saying only: Normal, Custom, Hide, Show...then you're clicking on mini sprites.

first, it did that when I tried changing from the emerald sprites on TCard Public, except it said Emerald instead of Normal.

Next, on TCard 5, the question mark thing has parts of it cut off, and, when you go to put in a pokemon's number, it says to use hoenn numbering system but displays the sprites according to national numbering system. The sprite has stuff cut off too. The cut off is remedied after switching sprite sets, but when you go back to the default sprite set (emerald) It displays them whole and says to use national numbering.

Those are the only errors I have come across so far in the latest program

 

[mewtwo-EX]

latest as in which version? Also, maybe you could use the Save feature to provide screenshots of the errors. I believe I've fixed them in the one I'm trying to upload, but I need to see what's on the screen. Please provide:

Program Version (date)
Screenshots of problem

Thanks

 

[Dragon_Master131]

the version you made after fixing the ball glitch on TCard 3.

well, it stopped doing the TCard 5 thing cuz I lost the external sprites somehow.

 

[mewtwo-EX]

yeah...so that's an old version now. I'll keep trying to upload the new version. Maybe I'll have to use YouSendIt again...arrg.

 

[Dragon_Master131]

actually, I don't know if it was the one immediately after. I just downloaded it today. it was 7-22

 

[zanaku]

I just dowloaded the program. nice. I wish I could create programs like this! >_<

 

[mewtwo-EX]

The newest version (2006-08-08) is now online through YouSendIt. Hopefully I can get it attached before the link expires in two weeks.

Dragon_master131: Please update using the link provided at the top of post 1.

Zanaku: Thanks :D. Sorry to waste your bandwidth, but the newest version is now online. Check post 1 for it.
