Where's the Boo Snake's trail graphic? (PAL Beta)

[Lithobraker]

I can't seem to find it. I believe I've combed through every effect and NPC image, but not one of the images I've found actually changes the look of the Boo Snake's trail.
Ghostly images I've replaced:
effect-92
effect-218
effect-243
npc-38
npc-294e
npc-298
npc-298e
npc-469
npc-469e
npc-586

Oh, also, hello! I'm quite new here.

npc-298 is the Boo Snake and npc-469 is the Boo Circle. if it has an `e` in the name, that means it is an editor only graphic. the actual culprit is how the npc itself is coded which should be fixed by the next version. (This is what I was told when I asked anyway about a month or two ago.)

Yeah, seems like I can't reskin it. I HAVE replaced both the editor and ingame graphics- and the boo snake does have the correct sprite at the front, but it seems I can't change the trail.

On builds more recent than beta 3, the boo snake's trail is drawn like this:

Code: Select all

		for l,w in ipairs(data.tail) do
			Graphics.drawImageToSceneWP(
				Graphics.sprites.npc[settings.boosnake.id].img,
				w.x,
				w.y,
				0,
				math.floor((w.offset + (w.frame+1)*boo_frames + (math.floor((w.direction+1)*0.5))*(boo_frames*4))*booheight),
				boowidth,
				booheight,
				-55
			)
		end

The texture is Graphics.sprites.npc[settings.boosnake.id].img, which is npc-298.png.
The frame selected is calculated to be one of the 3 sets of frames below the first set for each direction.
A quick sprite replacement reveals this:

Considering the npc-298e file didn't exist in Beta 3, you seem to already have a more recent build, so replacing the sprite should be no problem for you.

This isn't quite true. This NPC has a bug in the PAL release that makes them impossible to use sprite replacements with. This has been fixed on the repo, but sadly isn't in the PAL build.

Ah, my bad.
