About the costume editing tab

Please scratch team, stop making the costumes tab snap back to the beginning after edits!!! It takes forever to do stuff like remove the brown background in reiners tilesets (you know, the sprites used in ninja dynamic scroller and wandering knight)

Re: About the costume editing tab

I agree. When you have over 30 costumes, it can get kind of irratating.

Once again, I agree.  (In fact, it was for the same reason; Reiner's Tilesets)

Discuss future Scratch RPGs, online games, and more!

Re: About the costume editing tab

Irritating when you have 200+ costumes.

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Re: About the costume editing tab

Yeah, it's the same with scripts, when you click 'clean up', it goes back up to the top. I completely agree with you.

That sounds like something that needs to happen from whoever is supplying the sprites.  Have you left them a a message? 

It might be that somebody on Scratch has already converted those images into sprites in a project.  Maybe you could post a message in the Requests area describing which set you are working with and see if it has already been done.  Good luck!

Re: About the costume editing tab

Actually, only one or two have actually been finished. This is still frustrating when editing a sprite with many animations.

I have a super-massive monitor - so it doesn't matter for me.

Seriously, it's that big? So you're saying that it can show over 700 frames without the need to scroll?????

Re: About the costume editing tab

I realize this is an older thread but this problem has been addressed.

Many game programming environments will use the color found in the upper left pixel of an image to create an alpha channel when one does not already exist within the image file. This is done to save space because alpha channel images use 32 bits instead of 24. If your programming environment does not support this feature you can easily convert 24 bit image files to 32 bit using the Simple Alpha Channeler software provided at Reiner’s Tilesets.

I know this isn't strictly on topic but... You don't need to edit sprites to make their backgrounds transparent. This nifty little program will 'fix' all the sprites in a single folder with one click. It can 'fix' an entire tileset in seconds. Just take a minuet to 'fix' them before you load them into Scratch and save yourself hours of editing.
