CUPASH Step 2: Lucas is too big

[OniTheWolf]

I have never head this problem in CUPASh before (Just started using it yesterday, and everything was coming out fine :O)

I made a custom CSP in Photoshop CS3 and ran it in Step 2. I get: Lucas is too big, you should try reducing the amount of color you use in your custom CSP.

This is the first error I have had with CUPASH since I am a newbie to it, help

This happened to me and I still don't know what was wrong. I ended up having to remake all the Lucas files.

You need to use fewer colors, index it to 72 colors (with one being magenta)

i did that too ,(after the video how to told me too use saved colors from the original pic???, whats up with that?),

i went down to 70 even but none of the (ff00ff) magenta is transparent, always pink on screen ...

any know why i cant get transparent csp's with cupash.

i use cs3, save all pics as tga(all 3 types so far 8-32p) thanx in advance

Why does everybody still use ASH? I'm pretty sure SmashBox covers all of this, since it's what I use. SmashBox is also simple, so you shouldn't have to many problems.

for magenta both 255, works perfectly with me.
And reduce the amout of colors. Check out your templates folder in cupash. search the one that your replacing. For Example: Marth1_big.tga check out his colors. It would be something like 226. So also use 226 for ur CSP. But with some chars it won't work. Then I just use a little less and even if that won't work go to 72. I also had some not working with 72 so I made them 32 and worked perfectly.

btw, can someone give me an explaination on how to make _small.tga cause I can't get those correctly and can't find any tutorials...
