Re: [Adonthell-devel] Mapedit plans

[James Nash]

Sounds good!

I have to confess that I haven't really tried mapedit yet (I started it up once 
to verify that it works though). I wanted to make a few more sprites/mapobjects 
before I delve into it.

I've been preparing some graphics for the stairs. Currently they are single PNG 
images:

Back:

Front:

Side:

For the models, I was going to add a block shape for each step.

I guess I'll need to break up the "Back" one into separate PNGs for each step 
so that the engine can draw individual steps in front of the character as they 
walk down. Is that correct?

Would this be necessary for the other stairs too or can they remain as a single 
PNG?
