Custom character mod will not work

[CAdaverOusPRophet]

I am using the Extended sample character mod.

But when I draw my sprites I get this error when trying to compile the animation

I am someone else who experienced this issue. I tracked down Cadvaerous and the solution is as infuriating as the problem. When saving the .png files for your characters in Paint.NET choose 32-bit in the pop up screen.

 

32-bit Good, Auto detect bad.

 

I don't mean to bump old threads or however forums work. Its that this thread is the first result when searching this issue and now wayward modders have an answer.
