I was wondering if I can get any advice on what needs to be done with these graphics OTHER than just resizing them, any and all advice and information would be great as I have searched high and low for more in depth info but haven't found any. I've never touched mode 9 or anything to do with manila editing other than images, but I'm wicked smaht so I feel like I can do it.
Manila porting does not involve re-sizing graphic files at all. It is all decompiling .lua code and change the position/size of graphics in the code. Then you re-compile it. It's not easy since you have to do a lot of manual decomiling from what I gather.
