Custom event icon help

[GambleMountain]

This engine really doesn't want me to use custom art huh?

 I cannot select the whole image for my event. How would I go about fixing this problem?

See my sprite formatting video in my sig. It's for Ace, but MV works the same way.

use $ at the start of the character, not !

if you plan to use the iconset, remember than the characters are always divided in sets of 8, with each in 4 directions and 3 frames

So the total is:

horizontal tiles = 3 (frames) * 4 (characters) = 12

vertical tiles     = 4 (directions) * 2 (characters) = 8

So there are 96 possible icons on one character, in a grid of 12 columns x 8 rows

If you put $ at the start, it is made as:

3 (frames) * 1 (character)   = 3

4 (directions * 1 (character) = 4

so that means a grid of 12 icons in 3 columns x 4 rows.
