How do I put new sprites!?

[actualgaming]

All Tutorials I saw about sprites involve making them… but how do I put new Big NPC sprites for monsters and new 64x32 sprites for Classes and stuff ?

Depends on what eclipse edit your using

In Eclipse 2.7 and (I think) Eclipse Stable, you go into your sprites.bmp and add a new line of sprites using the same formula that all the other sprites use. It works the same way with the Big sprites.

In Eclipse Origins, you make a new file and use the same formula as in the other versions, the only difference is that each sprite is a different file instead of all one file but on different lines.

He/she means: is each single frame of the sprite on the sheet 64 pixels by 64 pixels (a square) or 32 pixels by 64 pixels? (a rectangle)

[actualgaming]

A rectangle for character like sprites (hope you know what I mean) and square for monsters.

Well, any help?

For Eclipse Stable:

Copy+paste the sprites into /GFX/Sprites.bmp or BigSprites.bmp if they are 64x64 pixels. If they are bigger than tha they cannot be used.

For Origins:

Copy the sprite list into MSPaint and then copy only the sprite you want. Paste it in a new sprite and then save it as an empty number (if 1.bmp has something, post it in 2.bmp).

i tried loading the sprites into the NPC and it gives me an error and says 'file no found'

Is it is .bmp format?
