All normal textures NEED an Alpha Channel.  If one doesn't exist, make a new Alpha Channel.

I can give you a list of texture parts that can be transparent for you.  It's incomplete, but this is what I know so far.

1: Eye iris and Final Smash eye textures can be transparent if they're not flat-eyed.

2: Link's sword.

3: Portions of Samus's legs.

4: The visor on Fox's/Falco's headgear.

5: Peach's/Zelda's dress.

6: Almost all of Ganondorf can be transparent.  Only his hands and eye base can't be transparent.

7: Pit's wings.

8: Zero Suit Samus's ponytail.

9: Ike's cape.

10: Most +2 textures can have transparency, but only for certain areas.

I think you could of done a better job pon the collaging.

Yeah I could've done better, but it would've probably been time-consuming.  If you can do a better collage, go on ahead.

That's about as creepy as an almost fully invisible Ganondorf.

Refer to the thread link below for additional info.

*Sonic - Sonic - Nintendo
*Knuckles - Lucario - Catgowoof
*Amy - Peach - NICKtendo DS
*Shadow - Sonic - Marvin
*Jet - Falco - Fireking220
*Metal Sonic - Sonic - Vide Infra
*Dr. Eggman - Wario (WarioWare) - Marvin
*Dr. Eggman - Wario (Plumber outfit) - Eggboy13
*E-123 Omega - R.O.B. - Dhragen
*Super Sonic - Sonic (Final Smash) - Nintendo
*Dr. Ivo Robotnik - Wario-Man - Kwrk85



Sorry that there's no Tails texture in there.  I didn't like the one that was done on Fox McCloud.

How do i do that in gimp....

just n case im downloading photoshop.

Image > Mode > Indexed...

Set the maximum number of colors to 72 or less for the big portraits.  Some may need a smaller palette, but usually no less than 32 colors.

Ok it's working now the only problem is that it'saying the pic does not have a pallete. I used gimp2.6 to edit the file. Does that make a difference?

The image has to be indexed. CUPASH doesn't really like GIMP indexes.

Ironically, most of my portraits were indexed with The GIMP, and they work properly on my game.  Mr. G&W is probably the only character where his portraits should be indexed in Photoshop.

It STILL doesn't edit Lucario's alpha map. But it's FAR faster than ASH, CUPASH, or any of those older methods.

Sometimes you need to alternate between SmashBox and ASH.  While ASH can handle most normal textures, indexed textures with mipmap issues are for SmashBox to handle.

[neededfiles]

You are placing your new CSPs in your neededfiles folder, right? Not in the templates, leave those alone.

Wrong folder.  All new CSP portraits need to be placed in the newfiles folder.

Here's a better looking Squirtle portrait to refer to.  Body portions are cut off, but that's what most portraits are like.

Can you at least explain what your problem is?  No one is gonna help you if you're not too specific about your problem.

[Fit[Character Name].pac]

Moveset hacks affect all color slots since they're called Fit[Character Name].pac.

If you have a moveset hack for Ness, you need to call the file FitNess.pac.

You could always resize the image so that it's not so squished.

[FitSnakeMotionEtc.pac]

Solid Snake's grenade texture is in the file, FitSnakeMotionEtc.pac.  If it was in common3.pac, that texture wouldn't even be in FitKirbySnake##.pac.
