Oh well. I never manged to fix that one bug, so close yet so far away. So in the end I made sure to crop the first and last frame of every animation to the same size (it is important that there isn't a lot of empty space under the character on these two frames, or they'll be misplaced in the...

That is how I did it at first. I replace all the old images with new ones that are 288x288. I set the FRAMES_OFFSET to center them at the middle hex (144, 144 for all), and lastly I run auto-cutting. And it doesn't work. In the game the character keeps jumping around when switching between...

Okay, this is driving me a wee bit mad. I need to solve the issues where the sprites keeps hopping around when the character changes animation. I understand that the Frames Offset only works for FRM AA, and that all subsequent frames are aligned according to this frame. But HOW? I read...

I have really been going about this the wrong way. The hero appearance mod included in sFall already allows you to do everything I wanted. I'm not going to make more than one sprite set, so I guess I will have to duplicate the FRMs for each armor type. But at least those sprites will be used for...

Ah, so it is possible to put the .pro files in the data/proto/critters directory as well? The way I did it was that I saved them directly to the master.dat file. Either way. Neither of these methods worked. Extracting the .pro files from master.dat shows me that they are indeed modified. But...

So I edited the Object FRM ID for all the female hero critters by using an hex editor on the .pro files. I also created this batch file which uses dat2, so I could easily deploy the mod on a full installation of Fallout 2. Works perfectly well. cd mod_data dat2.exe a ..\critter.dat...

Stupid me. I just assumed that the jumpsuit sprites were shared with all the other characters who uses jumpsuits in the game, but looking at them in the critter editor I discovered that the jumpsuit is the ONLY hero sprites not shared with NPCs. The hero uses hfjmps, while the NPCs uses...

Would using the Purple Robes work? As far as I have understood only certain characters have all the frames necessarily for all the actions available to the player. After searching some more I found out that it's possible to use sFall to change the starting and default appearance of the chosen...

Heia! I bet this question has been answered before, but I had absolutely no idea what to search for, so apologies for probably making a repeat topic. I am planning to make a small mod for Fallout 2 where you play as a special character throughout the game, but since many of the sprites you...
