Hello, I want to make sure why the unit I just finished designing and adding to starcraft was failing, but I think I know why that is.
I read somewhere that the max number of images for an unit (for example zealot) is 255, is this true? because I'm using like 400.
Thanks
None.
The limit on frames should be 65535. The width and height are limited to 255, but frame count should not be an issue (for example, unit\zerg\zlurker.grp has 595 frames).
If you would like, you could post or PM the GRP and maybe the iscript you are using and I or someone could take a look at it to see what could be the issue.

Thanks farty, I picked the grp and found that, for some reason, the grp converter just grabbed just 223 frames.
So, that was the issue!
None.
Sorry, it keeps failing.
The problem appears in ZealotWalking, this is the code:

im also adding the grp

Have you updated pzeShad.grp? Since it now has far fewer frames than zealot.grp, it could be what is crashing. Try removing or commenting out the imgul under ZealotInit and see if that makes it no longer crash.

In images.dat, change the entry for the zealot shadow to reference the zealot grp. It'll create an accurate shadow of your grp.
Yes, that too. And I'm not sure how familiar you are with iscript, but be sure to change the imgul to have a y offset so you can see the shadow in that case. Something like imgul 152 0 7 (based on probe's and vulture's shadow).

Great effect, I thought I had to also draw all the shadows!!

I know programming languages, so I understand iscript.
Thanks for the clarification, it was definitely a problem with shadows!!!
None.
