Made a post about a week ago but ended up getting no help. I'm trying to add custom characters but the game keeps crashing when the level loads.

Hold on

I think I saved that one as the wrong file type but I don't see how it could be related. I'll try re-saving it though, just in case

#

Don't rename file type and save. but open it and save it as png

That worked!! Thanks

#

Out of curiosity, what is 'expected magic?' Just info about the file?
