Uploading new characters

So i uploaded some new characters into the game. Well, the form that shows all their actions, at least. How can I make that into an actual character I can use, like walk around as and such? Im assuming it has something to do with the script, but what?
Also, I'm really new to the whole script thing, so if anyone has a link to a Step by step how to on how to edit the script, please pm me the link, thanks :)

Awesome Bro

So you've imported the graphics etc. ?

If so, all you need to do, is go into the database, and on the Actor tab, make a new character or use an existing one, and where it shows the characters sprite (Character), just double click it, and a list will appear with all of the resources that you've imported... find the one you've just imported, click it, and there you go.
 
Well the only thing i've imported is this.

You can't use that in the program. You're using RMXP, yes? The processor can ONLY handle spritesheets that are 4x4 tiles. You'll need to trim that down into useable parts.

But besides that, I assume you uploaded it into Characters, yes? Then, if you're making it into a hero character, go to the database, go to Actors, and click Character Graphic. No scripting needed - unless you want to find a script that will allow you to use that huge sprite sheet (I don't know of any.)
