on the game cuz ppl i know keep saying theyll draw some sprites, but then they dont (stan:"i was drawing a guy, but then he looked funny so i erased him and drew a pikachu w/ a trident isntead"), so i finally decided i would come here. I would like some original 16x16 map sprites, like a path, a house, some scenery(grass, trees, rocks, etc.), maybe some running water and a bridge, a chest, and other such things. I also need some 16x8(or 8x16 idk whichever one has it taller than it is wide) character sprites. I need 2 swordsman, a black mage, a white mage, a gunner, some npc's, and maybe a mime(see: Death to Adam contest). Anyone who has the talent and the free time to draw these earns my full thanks and, of course, a mention in the credits.

lol sorry, like i said before, terrible at sprites. You could try at maxcoderz or UTI. There are more pixal artists there than here (from what i've observed).
EDIT: you could also download Draw'n Map at Ticalc.org or here. It has some pretty good map editing abilities, not really a charactor sprite program though.

becaues those are in GS, and basic doesn't really support GS (even with xLIB).

It is not my game... Those sprites are from Athlor.
I haven't seen him around in a long, long time. :(
Regardless... you can always modify the sprites to how you want them -- i.e. convert them to black& white. Sometimes the hardest thing is just getting started.

EDIT: Another thing is that MS paint has a good b/w converter that I use all the time. Well its a pseudo converter cause you just save the file as a monochrome bitmap and it auto converts it and does a damn good job of it too
EDIT: I took the liberty of converting them so here are the comparisons
As you can see they still look good in b/w

haha, /sarcasm yes they look fine in b/w, yes. Especially because I cannot see the hands on the clock, some floor sprites are completely white, the bow looks crappy, and I cannnot read the text on the signs. :Oo:
/sarcasmIMO, those sprites can actually look good in b/w, but not when MS Paint converts them into b/w. They have to be converted by hand, only then will they look good in b/w <_<

but even though hes drawn other stuff well, he can't draw grass. Can someone make a good 16x16 grass tile? I'm afraid you're not getting a stripper for this one though. I'm planning to have a demo in March(maybe April) with a town, random battles, maybe a quest, and 3 characters(I'm not sure how many there'll be total but 3 is the max at any one time).
Post by: trevmeister66 on February 14, 2007, 02:03:00 pm
hmm... grass... I'm not good at 16x16, but i could give you an 8x8 in binary and you could just use it 4 times.

10100000

00001010

01010000
00000000
something like that, but there's many other ways you could do it.
