This is my first time posting in this forum, so if this is the wrong place, I apologize in advance. I bought Ace the other day during the Steam sale, and I'm still learning to use it before I start any projects. My question is: how do you make sprites? Not import them - there's enough threads/tutorials answering that, but actually make them. Do you hand-draw them, or is there some program that you use (e.g. Photoshop)?
While I'm at it, I might as well ask some other questions (rather than create separate threads).
- I know it's possible to use taller/larger sprites, but how big can they get. For example, a really large monster.
- Can you jump while in a map? If not, is there a script that allows you to do so?
- To what extent can you change the graphics? I know this is a software created to mimic older games, but I personally would like some variety between each game I make.
- Are mounts and vehicles possible?
- (Last question, I promise) While in a battle, is it possible for two characters to merge their attacks into one? For example, both party members have an energy cannon-type attack and it mixes into one big cannon when they use it at the same time.
Sorry for all of the questions, and thanks in advance.
