I've read the "Making A Sprite" in eAthena Wiki and it says,
"You can use SPR Conviewer (made by bakausagi) to make your sprite. Once you opened SPR conview, you will have to go to "Convert > Bmp to SPR" (only works with 8 bits bmp images). Click on "Add" and select all your frames. Try to name them like "Frame1", "Frame2", etc. and then select them all at the same time."
The guide I read told me to make frames of 24bits/256 colors bmp image. I've done a few and I'm ready to make the sprite.
If what I read is right, I've learned that in making a successful sprite, you need both the .SPR file and .ACT file to make it all work.
In SPR_Conview_v0.11, I was able to convert my .bmp images to a .SPR file.
So my question is, how do you make the .ACT file? I know you can open the .SPR file in actOR2, then save it as .ACT file.
But I think I'm missing something in between here, since directly saving it as .ACT file after you loaded the .SPR file makes an error.
I hope someone would be kind enough to answer my newbie question. Thanks a lot!
