How do I make a roster icon? I still don't have a good idea how it works.
The easiest way probably is to use the make an icon tool in the roster maker app, either press f2 or click file then create an icon to bring up the feature,

then click choose image and find an image you saved on your computer (a lot of wikis have decent quality pictures with transparent backgrounds that work really good)

after that resize the window if the bottom details are being cut off, you will then need to select the portion of the image to use for the icon, just click and drag a square around the images face,

finally click okay then name your icon and character and then click create icon, your icon will now be selected and you can click on character info to add that if you want


Some tips

try to keep the length and width as even as possible or else the icon may turn out weird, the area you are selecting is white by default but will turn purple when length and width are even, also checking the bottom numbers for length and width helps

it may take you a couple tries to get that perfect square and also find out just how zoomed in you want your icon, using the preview button on the bottom can help with this

if you messed up your icon just click select image again to start over, be careful to not select this by accident though but if you do just click cancel and you should be good



hope this helps, feel free to let me know if you have any question on this method of creating icons

Sorry for all the requests recently but these should be the last of them for a while:

Archanea Era is done, probably going to take a break to play lots of ultimate in the coming weeks but hope to finish up the final planned fire emblem set (Elibe Era) by the end of the year while keeping up on heroes and three houses.

Me again.

I did it! It was actually pretty simple to do. Here's what I made:


Can't believe I failed to notice that option, and it seems I can't include the "&" sign to it. Still, thanks for helping me out.

...I don't see the image I made. What happened? I did pretty much insert it in.
You can't directly put the & sign to an icon name (unless you create the corresponding character in the "letters" folder), but usually, I simply use "+" instead.

Did you create an icon for an existing character or for a new one that wasn't in the Roster Maker database? If you create an icon for an already existing character, you must right-click on it in the list to cycle through all of his icons.

I've already dealt with that problem. I was referring to inserting the icon in my comments here.

scoobymcsnack scoobymcsnack Do you mind fulfilling my Impa request? You do great work here.

I wish I could find the full render of her to help you out, but that's proving quite difficult.

Think we might have a classification for all of the spirits, once we learn them all? would make for some unique rosters to be shown.
