Code: entLevel = ent_create("tree1.pcx", &vecTemp, NULL); ent_clone(entLevel); ent_setskin(entLevel, psBmap, 1); No matter what I try... when doing this in a loop, always ALL entities which were created as tree1.pcx will change their skin. This kind of defeats the purpose of ent_setskin for sprites...

Manual ALSO says: Quote: ent_setskin(ent_create(SHADOW_DDS,NULL,NULL),bmap,1) läßt sich zum Erstellen eines Sprites aus einer Bitmap verwenden. A7.70 ...which makes not really sense if sprites cannot be cloned. But ok, I'll repost it in Future instead.
