A character sprite I created in Photoshop using a template available at the Legasista NipponIchi website and imported into the game. =D

Legasista is available on PS3 digitally on PSN.

How to:
---READ THIS before anything!!!---
*Play the game until the Edit function is unlocked (not far in the game, it teaches you the basics then it unlocks features as you go)
*Create a Character. It doesn't matter the skin you choose right now. You can change it later. Pick voices, create dialogue, build the character as you see fit.
*If you're making a character with retro look and big pixels, select "sharp" on it's skin type or "smooth" if you're gonna make an high-def skin.

---Now for the good stuff---
-Download the Character Creation Kit: http://www.nisamerica.com/games/leg...../news/kit.html
-Edit the template in your drawing program of choice.
-Save the file as TRANSPARENT PNG <--important!!!
-Create a folder in an usb flash drive "PS3/Photo" and put your image in there. (if you're having trouble, save an image/take a screenshot and copy it to a usb flash drive and it will create the folder)
-Copy the image to your PS3.
-Launch the game.
-Go to Edit.
-Select a Character previously created.
-Go to Import Character.
-Select your Edit image.
-Save the changes!
-Play your heart out!

Important note for advanced editing:
-The grid can be hidden or kept that the game will ignore the grid's pixels. They're clearly for boundaries sake as the game engine recognizes each sector for a certain area of the sprite. (the template file has a dummy representing what each sector is)
-When in doubt what a sector is, check the pre-created character file.
-You can animate the hair and weapons layers for up to 3 frames. They are the 2nd 3rd and 4th collumn from the left. From left to right: frame 1, 2 and 3. The game recognizes the frame order as follows [2],[3],[1]. The weapon areas work the same way. Be mindful of this when you intend to animate hair and/or weapons. An example is that I used this knowledge to make a crystal on a character's scepter flicker.
-The game engine accepts opacity, so if you wanna draw glasses or transparent items, you can make them by changing opacity on them at the PNG.

Good luck n_n
