COF files aren't images, they just control animation speed and trigger frames; however if you want to build animations from multipart monsters/players, use MergeDCC

thanks you for your answer @Necrolis.

Im starting to know the program, i downloaded alegro, mmm i changed the cofs, and i extracted images

Code: Select all

=========================================================
COF file               = #BA1HTH
# directions           = 8
# frames per direction = 6
# layers               = 1
Layers list            = TR
box = (-500, -550) - (100, 20) = 601 * 571 pixels

Mmmm for now im converting the psx in online web to jpg, but im getting a full gray image, im thinking if my box is so small?
i changed it from 100-160 to 600 - 500 and still having gray image i will still trying changing this values.

Thanks you !
