Chassis paint glitch! (halp meh)
« on: October 13, 2015, 01:20:07 PM »
so, there I am, trying to make a bot for a challenge versus the almighty thrackerzod. My bot finally nears completion, all I needed to do was place a good skin onto it...


Then this happens.





 :vista:




Any ideas on how to fix this, or do I just have to try to copy the same bot over again?


(Btw, this is a new design of mine so shh...)

If you try to import a different texture, does it also go all weird, or does it only happen when you use this one specific texture?

What size (as in dimensions) is your texture?

Reminds me of the skins people would use on Stock bots and early DSL bots.

You probably imported something that wasn't a 24-bit 256x256, 512x512, or 1024x1024 bitmap image. RA2 is very picky.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

^ This was gonna be my guess based on the dimensions question I asked :P

I think it might have been the dimensions thing, because the akin exported wierdly into my pictures. Either way, if I try to do anything with the skin now, it just bugs out more. So much for wanting to have a keyblade on a robot.
