Alright, I'm interested in using custom portraits for a screen pack that uses 'em, and I'm having issues with indexing pictures.


I'm using photoshop to create these pics, but the issue is when I save them as png or bmp after indexing them.

It comes out looking like this, which the background is not supposed to be there.



I sought some help from yt videos, and I just get told so many different things and things that I don't understand, I just get confused because of it.

change sff for mugen 1.1

The error is caused by the transparency color in the wrong palette index something common from photoshop or similar tools.
the solution if you are in 1.1 is simple use the 32 bit color image without change and that would be it save as 1.1 sff and call it a day, now if you are on 1.0 or using ikemen go then is kinda difficult and would need more editing along checking the transparency color on photoshop normally would be the first color at top left and change it to another color (normally i use the bright green) and then you can see which colors are affected by transparency so you edit more.
