everything is 256 colors and .PCX, right?
maybe upload the .def file? or just copy and paste it?

look im trying to say is i want the background to appear behind the sprites not in front of them

the big background i put in is in front of the sprites but not the character why does that happen?

I'm still confused. 
are you trying to get something to appear in front of the characters? if that's it, use layerno=1
Or are you trying to get something to appear behind the other stage sprites? if that's it, they appear in the order they're in in the .def. file.

and how do i exactly put them in order i dont want the floor sprite or the space background to be infront of the sprites and its not in front of the characters either

like this:


;----------------------------------------[PCX IMAGE]
[BG night]
type  = normal
spriteno = 5,1
mask = 0
delta = .4,.4
;---------------------------------------
[BG middle2]
type  = normal
spriteno = 2,2
mask = 1
;---------------------------------------



now see, the "night" image appears behind the "middle" image.
