Help with skin [fixed]

[thunderheart396]

I'm working on a personal skin of one of my characters and I'm following the instructions, from my viewpoint, perfectly, but when I compile it and set it, the game crashes on me. I'm really confused since a custom skin i downloaded is working just fine.

^This is the error message I get.

Here are the four png files of what i've made of it so far and below these text lines is the pic of her. [I only have a pic from a crappy online dollmaker. OTL]

what is the exact filename of the primary skin? if it has a hyphen (-) in it maybe starmade doesn't like that? if the full filename is "izumi-png.4584.png" as it is showing when i downloaded to take a look, it probably doesn't recognize the file type because of the two periods. try renaming the file?

I have yet to work on the helmet...
Should have just not uploaded their files....
OTL.
I'm intending for the helmet to be her ribbon in the picture I'm basing this off of.....[DOUBLEPOST=1411340440,1411340318][/DOUBLEPOST]

Well, the files, respectively are Izumi_EM, Izumi, Izumihelm and Izumihelm_EM.

i tried genning a skin using your files after renaming them. i didn't get the error you did, but i did get the "i am star-made and i hate intel graphics cards" error. hmmm...

hmmm....
Might have something to do with the files and things... gonna try and download another instance and compile it with that...[DOUBLEPOST=1411341777,1411341257][/DOUBLEPOST]Not working.[DOUBLEPOST=1411341949][/DOUBLEPOST]Okay, it must have something to do with the images...
I compiled another skin from another set of PNGs from another thread and it's working with that....

File size?

i've continued to fiddle with this, (i'm using GIMP) the only difference between your file and the defaults that i can discern is that the color on yours is "indexed" and the color on the others is "RGB". i don't pretend to know exactly what that means or if it has to do with the problem.

What depth are they?
As in 24bit or 32bit depth.

Default is 32 I think. all images have to be the same bit depth.

Dude... the main files are 8 bit depth and the emissions are 24.
