I haven't used this new side image system yet, but looking at the documentation, I see that the side image is defined *after* the character. Try moving "image side lynette naki1 s1" after "define l"? Also, the documentation says this:
If no image can be found, or more than one image has the same number of attributes, an Null is shown instead.
A Null is nothing. I'm not sure what "same number of attributes" means, though ...
define l = Character('Lynette', color = "#ffffff", image="lynette")
image side lynette naki1 s1 = "img/lynette/naki1s1.png"
# The game starts here.
label start:
l naki1 s1 "....."
One more question, did you rewrite the "say" screen? Or are you using the default one?
No prob, glad to know it works.
Yes, you're not supposed to use show, if you want to show a normal image along with the side image (show both), you'll have to define another image:
define l = Character('Lynette', color = "#ffffff", image="lynette")
image lynette naki1 s1 = "normal.png" #this one's for the normal version
image side lynette naki1 s1 = "side.png"
# The game starts here.
label start:
show lynette naki1 s1
l "....." # Notice I don't have to type "naki1 s1" here, this is because it is already set in the previous "show" command
