So recently I downloaded the "Alien Hybrid Soldiers" mod, alongside a couple other mods to sort off add-in what could be seen as cut content for UFO (Men in Black, Alien Reproduction, Waspite Alien, etc).
While I really enjoyed all the stuff in those other mods and the extra content they brought in, I wasn't a huge fan of the sprite-work in the Hybrid mod. So, for fun, I decided to try to make my own that would be satisfactory for what I envisioned. Primarily by taking the Hybrid sprite used in X-Piratez and the armor the default X-COM soldiers wear, and mix-and-matching the stuff until I got something I thought looked good.
After that, I made a new game and went into debug to see how it looked before going any further-- but rather than the sprite I cobbled together, I received a mess of pixels that I myself cannot really explain. I will say that I have no experience with modding, and the only thing I changed from the original mod was the replacement of this sprite.
If anyone has any idea as to where/what I messed up and a possible solution, I'd appreciate the help.
(Something worth noting-- this is just for personal use at the moment, since I'm just changing something inside someone else's mod. If I decide to try something more ambitious and put the finished product up for download, I'll definitely be giving out the proper credits to both the original mod author and the one who created the original Hybrid sprite from X-Piratez that I used for this.)
