your key is inventory.txt that will change the actual sizes of the slots.. but not the appearanceto change the appearence of small slots you will need to edit the dc6 files data\global\ui\panel (i think) one of the files in there should have the inventory in it.

You'll need DC6Maker for this I'm afriad, DC6Con only works for titlescreens and items.Also: data\global\ui\panel\invchar6Tab.dc6 data\global\ui\panel\inv_ring_amulet.dc6 data\global\ui\panel\inv_armor.dc6 data\global\ui\panel\inv_belt.dc6 data\global\ui\panel\NpcInv.dc6 data\global\ui\panel\buysell.dc6 invchar6Tab are the graphics for your alternative weapon slot. Inv_ring_amulet, inv_armor, and inv_belt explain themselves... (the little pictures that appear in those slots when you have nothing equipped) NpcInv is the Mercenary screen. buysell is the merchant screen. Also, you may want to change skltree_(a/b/d/i/n/p/s)_back.dc6 - the skilltree backgrounds. ------------------ 54x.

that just what I want: my titlescreen is screwed up. I've heard that you could get the titlescreen in .dc6 format, without screwing the animation. Something with -transcol... plz explain me detailed how to use it.------------------ Give me fuel, give me fire, give me all that I desire the Harry Potter mod site

Does your background have black in it ? That may be the problem. In any case, with dc6con, never user -transcol when you're making a full and therefore non-transparent bitmap.Hint with the index 0 (black) d2 palette . Load an image having the palette of diablo2 in paint shop pro (for exemple, a pcx item that dc6con gave, from a dc6 item). Edit the palette. make the index 0 bright-pink (red=255, green=0, blue=255, or if you prefer the html code : #FF00FF). Then save this palette somewhere on your disk. Because the game use the index 0 as a code to say a pixel is transparent, it is never draw, therefore, making it black or bright-pink have no effect. Now, load in psp the bitmap you want to become a background. Apply/load the precedently saved palette (with bright-pink). Since your background contains NO bright-pink at all, psp won't map the black pixels to index 0, so you are sure you won't have transparent part in your background. If that don't solve your problem, I don't know what it is. Maybe the width / height ? As for the 8 frames in the dc6 this wide image will produce with dc6con... just normal. In dc6s, the images can't be more than 256*256 pixels, so, for a bigger ones (say title screen 800*600), it needs to be split in sub-bitmap. dc6con do it automatically. In this case, the frames in the dc6 are to be considered not part of some animations, but part of a big image. You'll noticed that these frames won't have x and y offsets too.

Thanks, Paul, that explains something else I was curious about. DC6Maker always splits the large images up into frames, and exports each frame as a separate .pcx file. But DC6Con exports one big .pcx file, so I use that for title screens. I didn't know about the size limit.------------------ "Welcome to Kurast, traveler.
