It's as simple as finding the render order in the 1.1.0 source and then copying it over >_>.

You need to change the stepping system to only 3 frames as well.

[Dzastin]

```
' Check if completed walking over to the next tile
    If Player(Index).Moving > 0 Then
        If GetPlayerDir(Index) = DIR_RIGHT Or GetPlayerDir(Index) = DIR_DOWN Then
            If (Player(Index).XOffset >= 0) And (Player(Index).YOffset >= 0) Then
                Player(Index).Moving = 0
                If Player(Index).Step = 0 Then
                    Player(Index).Step = 2
                Else
                    Player(Index).Step = 0
                End If
            End If
        Else
            If (Player(Index).XOffset <= 0) And (Player(Index).YOffset <= 0) Then
                Player(Index).Moving = 0
                If Player(Index).Step = 0 Then
                    Player(Index).Step = 2
                Else
                    Player(Index).Step = 0
                End If
            End If
        End If
    End If
```
Thanks!

Dza, that wouldn't change the format issue.  That is for the frame walking mod, but it's not the actual format change, is it?  Is that within bltplayer?

I'm assuming 1.1 used a horizontal format like the one i posted, yes?  Can anyone provide this for me if that is the case.

This did not work for the following sprite layout:


I would greatly appreciate any assistance on this code.  I have 288 sprites I'm working on in this format and converting them would simply be a big headache.

Photoshop batch action. Do it once then macro the entire directory.

[thezeus]

Robin, I'm doing a little googling, and I think I get what you are saying.  I'll have to look and see how to do it.

Edit:  Thank you for the advice.  Learning photoshop batching is amazing.  Thank you for introducing me to it.  I got all 288 sprites modified.

[Robin]

Yup. I've been using it for years for doing all my graphics. Can even do things like manually turning an RMXP autotile block in to something usable in Eclipse then pushing it as a macro through the entire directory.
