how to put a graphic in to the cache in dinkedit
does any one know how to put in a graphic into the smart cache in dink edit? 
You need to edit the dink.ini file.
First place your graphic in the graphics folder and give it a name like <name of your graphic>-01 (and -02, and -03 and so on if you want multiple frames in one sequence)
First you find an empty spot to place them in. (A sequence which is not used, in a standard DMOD numbers between 850 and 999 are empty (+some other numbers in between)) (note: do NOT place the graphics between the different sequences of one monster)
Then you add a line in your dink.ini file, like:
load_sequence graphics\<name of your graphic>- 850 NOTANIM
//850 is the number of the sequence I took

IN THE DINK INI FILE, WHERE DO I EXACTLY PUT THAT LINE U TOLD ME TO ADD
Wherever you want.
I'd add it as low as possible, that way you can easily refind it.
Oh... and give your Caps Lock a break...

lolololol
...seriously, lay down the capslock use. It makes me laugh, but still. What exactly are you putting in the dink.ini??

In that case the name of the graphic should be: BEAR01-01 and not BEAR-01, keep that in mind.
hmm, assuming you named the graphic right I don't see anything wrong. Try
load_sequence_now graphics\BEAR01- 850
load_sequence_now graphics\BEAR01- 850
Then it's probably some dink pallette thingy.
When it doesn't work for me I try this: Look into your graphics folder for graphics that do work (the start button for example). Then copy it and give it the name BEAR01-01. Then go into MS paint and copy the contents of the original BEAR01-01 to the newly created BEAR01-01. That should ensure that you have the right pallette.
If that doesn't work either I don't have anymore ideas.

Don't you have to do something like load_sequence_now graphics\BEAR- 850 And what exactly is the directory name of your graphics maybe that's the problem.
