EDIT: okay, so i figured it out. but, is it possible to manipulate animated bgs?
so, right now, i'm trying to edit background 8, and the flag tiles are animated, but some of my normal tiles are being replaced with the animated flag tile. i know i could just adjust the castle, but my tiles would still be animated. anybody know how to remove the tile animations so they'll just show the tiles i put there? here are some supporting images.
