New main character

[Chkn Boy]

Is there anyway to make a new main character instead of playing as link?

Yep, you must either draw it or rip it.
There are some quest that don't feature Link as the main character, such as Mega Man: DWR, Mario Nintendo crisis and Mario in the castle of doom.

Draw or rip them... then what? How do I set it up? Please help...

If you get a BS-Zelda Tileset, you get 2 extra characters to choose from when selecting your main character. Normally, it's Link, but it can also be a girl, or a boy with a baseball cap.

You can use tile editor to make the person you want, then use that tile to edit the animations with, and that tile is your new character. But to do this, you need every tile to be the same pose for your character that Link is in for your character (e.g. you need a holding, walking, side/back/front, swimming, etc. tile). You can also edit enemy tiles to change the enemies, but that new enemy's characteristics are derived from the one you replaced (e.g. replace octorok, the new one will spit rocks).

Yeah, but it'd be REALLY funny if you changed an Octorock to look like a Cukeman. Then he'd be bouncing around shooting electrified blobs at you. :laughing:

I created one frame of the character I wanted...lol. It's hard work.
