for the first question, you copy by pressing CTRL+C to copy or CTRL+X to cut. Then, press CTRL+V to paste.
as for the second question you need to set a defalt maptile... you know, just read the FAQ. _________________ Eat a beaver, save the trees! |

What I usually do for maptiles catfish, is make a spreadsheet of tiles that are exactly as big as one on the OHR. An easy way to do this is follow my simple step by step instructions *has seen Trogdor too many times*
1. Open up the OHR and go to edit maptiles
2. Make a maptile filled with a solid color other than black
3. Press {ALT + PrintScreen}, if the screen flashes then you did it right.
4. Now open a paint document in .BMP format
5. Right click, select Paste and there you go.
6. Zoom in big and using the dotted line tool, trace over the solid colored tile and then copy it. Paste it in exact corners of the thing (CHECKERED)
And there you go. Assuming you did this right you should have one big checkered file and save it, so you can reuse it. From there draw your graphics in paint so they are detailed and don't look like hell. Using printscreen helps a lot in the OHR I'd say. _________________ ---------------Projects----

This is an old thread. His question had already been answered but the rest of the thread was moved cause it became a debate about the merits/flaws of FF10-2. _________________ Locked
