Title: Celestia 1 site
Post by: Tiara on April 05, 2003, 06:59:57 am: I just got something done for the site of my RPG :eek2:

Clickityclick! (http://members.lycos.nl/axxxewielder/Celestia.swf)

I know it isn't much but its SOMETHING :p

FULL SCREEN (press F11) = better quality

:thepimp:

Ow and those with lower than 1028x768 resolution... well... they can try with full screen (by pressing F11) but I doubt they will be able to read the text. Still need to make a page for that :)

yeah, a template might be nice ( only sprites I've ever made were for red alert, I had a cool Alien replacing a soldier :D ), and tell me what you would want, too ;)

Probably copy/paste agin :ick

I need a Soldier. Kinda like the one in the top left corner but different as I'm already using this one. Needs to have a bit of blue in it.

Make it a bit the same genre so they don't look very different in game :p Also use this pic as it already has its transparent BG set and you can just place you sprites over the existing ones. (If they are placed wrong they will also look stronge in game :p)

EDIT- This isn't classified info or anything so you can just post stuff here :p

so, if I had, say horns to his helmet, the horns won't show because it goes out of the mask?

edit: if the mask is just a black pic with the sprite masks as white, it's easy for me to do one.

No:

Just visualize these grids. Don't go beyong them. though keep the main body the same size as the other charas else I'd have BIG soldiers and small people.
