oh, then just try to sprite swap KFM's stage first. I suggest you use kfm.sff as a base for making stages until you completely understand stage making. :) You need to make the sprite 256 colors first btw.

so you don't save as pcx but you convert it to 256 colours then you save it as a pcx

I really don't know what to tell you then. Make sure that when you're adding the sprite its not grouped as:

Group 0 Image 0

Try to avoid that at all costs. If anything you could try group 0 image 1. That should do it.

here is an hint.

group no.0 is your background.

make an sprite group no 1 will let it be in front of the background.
