I swear I've tried everything in PSP7 to edit kit icons. No matter what I do, saving the file results in the Plugin generating a General Protection Fault (and thus no save occurs). Of course, it works fine for editing / saving any other RSB files, such as map textures or splash screens.
After many hours of experimenting with alpha channels and masks and layers, I finally resorted to saving my work as a BMP file and then using RSBEditor to convert the file to RSB format. Once in RSB format, I edit it again to enable Alpha Blending, like the other kit icons have, and everything seems to work and look okay -- except when I get into GR, there's just a light blue square where the icon should be.
The tutorial on kit icons only mentions how to do them in Photoshop. I've done searches on Google as well as on this forum on kit icon editing, but there's just nothing out there for Paint Shop Pro.
Any help? Or am I stuck having to buy Photoshop just to edit some stupid kit icons?
