I seem to recall it being possible to use XP sized sprites in VX. I know the One Night series did so, somehow. Is it possible to do the same in VXA?
The most important lesson I learned from AD&D is this: Trolls are best killed with fire.

Given the similarities between the two, the code should be nearly the same. Within Sprite_Character, XP divides a character sprite into a 4x4 set of sprites where both VX and VXAce divides it into 3x4 (if you have the appropriate $ symbol)
XP:
Code:
@cw = bitmap.width / 4
@ch = bitmap.height / 4
VX(ACE):
Code:
@cw = bitmap.width / 3
@ch = bitmap.height / 4
And then its a case of handling the pattern so the resting/standing pose is on the 1st frame of the sprites's animation and not the 2nd.
