View Full Version : WA3 finicky about graphics?

Is there some special trick to getting WA3 to display graphics? If I change a image in just minute ways, such as adding a small transparent border, it stops displaying. Do they need to be powers of 2 or something. Half the time it seems my skin dosn't display at all, the other half its messed up ( no alpha doesn't refresh background when I move it). I was working fine until i changed the background image slightly =/

Key word: background, as I recall WA3 doesn't like changes to the background once it knows the size for a skin. It is very tolerent in all other images though. You have three options:
Create a new dir in the skin dir and copy your modified version there

Edit your skin out of studio.xnf

Delete studio.xnf (it will just forget all your configuration info if you do).

Or go get the batch file in my sig, which deletes studio.xnf automatically with each new skin build (as well as compiling your MAKI and doing the zipping automatically for you.)

You'll need PKZIPC to use it, however, but it's free.
