Documentation on custom berry (maddie's helping hand)

[drowsy terrace]

hey,
trying to replace a vanilla berry with a custom sprite for a homie
is there any documentation on how to use the custom berry properly? i haven't found anything and i assume replacing the sprite path isn't enough because it just crashes rn

[slender nacelle]

it uses a sprite, as in the name of a Sprites.xml entry

so you create a copy of the vanilla berry entry with a unique name in your map's Sprites.xml and make that entry point at your custom images

[drowsy terrace]

oh god
mind linking me to the page that teaches how to do that?

xmls still scare me no matter how many times i look at them

[slender nacelle]

in this case you'd change the sprite name as well but otherwise this should be accurate https://github.com/EverestAPI/Resources/wiki/Reskinning-Entities#reskinning-entities-through-spritesxml

[drowsy terrace]

Still crashes, does this look correct?

I know you should post logs but that might include leaks so it's a last resort

[slender nacelle]

you have to enter the name of the sprite (so Mouseberry in this case)

also if you use the same sprite for normal and ghost, berries you've already collected will look the same

and also please include username and modname in your path instead of putting stuff directly in collectables

[drowsy terrace]

yea this is just for testing, a ghost sprite is being made
still crashes, what did i miss

[whole barn]

what crash is it again

[drowsy terrace]

Logs will have to be provided in private as a last resort sorry
This is the crash in question

i'm like very convinced it's an error on my end

[slender nacelle]

oh your names and paths and stuff don't match up

[drowsy terrace]

where i just mistyped something or didn't do something correctly

[slender nacelle]

the path in the header of the sprite should be the folder the images are in

[drowsy terrace]

oh not the sprite itself?

gotcha

[slender nacelle]

so .../mouseB/

[whole barn]

but that wouldn't postcard

thatd just missing texture

[slender nacelle]

and then the path attributes on the animations need to be the name of the actual images

[drowsy terrace]

OH

[slender nacelle]

so rn they say normal even though the images are actually called mouseberr

[drowsy terrace]

i knew that part was not right

[slender nacelle]

idk I'm working with the information I have

[drowsy terrace]

if that won't work i'll just omit leaks from the log

yea ok log it is

aight

[whole barn]

System.Exception: Missing animation name in SpriteData: 'mouseberr'!

so

what you did right there is tell "the files are in the folder collectables/tg90/mouseB/mouseberr"

and the folder mouseberr doesn't exist

the path in Anim/Loop is the image name

cus right now you're saying the animation is in collectables/tg90/mouseB/mouseberr/normal##.png, where ## is a number

[drowsy terrace]

right

[whole barn]

which obviously is not where the files are

[drowsy terrace]

so every row with anim is the filename and the rest is folder name?

[whole barn]

so the path where your cursor is should be collectables/tg90/mouseB
then in the Anim paths put mouseberr

[drowsy terrace]

oh and the rest of the rows?

[whole barn]

yea same thing

[whole barn]

i think you need a slash at the end after mouseB

i don't remember

[whole barn]

you can delete the log now if you want

[drowsy terrace]

it's cool i've uninstalled leaks

check please

still happens with/without the slash at the end

[slender nacelle]

so rn you're telling it that e.g. the idle sprite can be found at collectables/tg90/mouseB/collectables/tg90/mouseB

[drowsy terrace]

🅰️

sorry this is super confusing what should i put where

[ionic kernel]

mouseberr and mouseberry?

[slender nacelle]

at the top of the sprite, you should have the folder that the images are in

in the individual Anim and Loop entries, you have the name of the images within that folder

it will combine those two paths to look for the images

[ionic kernel]

I can see the log says mouseberr is missing, and It actually is mouseberry in xml

[drowsy terrace]

so essentially this

[slender nacelle]

yes

[drowsy terrace]

mouseberr is the file name, mouseberry is the xml sprite name hope that makes sense

[ionic kernel]

I hope you kown what is Missing animation name in SpriteData: 'mouseberr'!

[slender nacelle]

ok yeah now that the xml is correct, make sure you've actually saved the map file

[drowsy terrace]

That was the issue i didn't save the edit from mouseberr to mouseberry

Thanks all it works now

[ionic kernel]

👍🎉

[drowsy terrace]

well, at least this specific part does
