That looks good! Does it help to hide the tile seam issue?

Moved topic to General Discussion. Nope, thankfully the only mods that potentially disable achievements are most of the mods for FF VII, since you have to downgrade the game to the 1997 version.

So just a heads up, After multiple attempts of creating concept art for the game that wouldn't look creepy/ out of place, I've decided to repaint the sprites while changing certain aspects giving it a more darker feel. I am however completely changing as of now zero's sprite sheet I will be changing a few sprite sheets in the future, and If i decide to again change the sprites completely I will upload both the new sprites + the "reskin" characters for your preference. As of now though I will be focusing on the reskins.

Awesome. Let me know if you need help along the way :)

Hi guys. Just a quick update. I'm still working on the project, but was sick for a few weeks off and on and with the day job it wasn't easy lately.

I'll try and get a bunch done this weekend though. I'm just as excited as you guys are to see the finished product.

My idea is to finish up all of the sprites, and then will do a Beta run, where I would need people to play the game with the sprites and compare it to SNES footage on youtube, to help with alignment issues. As you can tell even from the video, certain characters have sprites that are a few pixels off. That would be a great help when the time comes.

I'll be sure to keep you guys up to date! Thanks for all of the support. Also, I highly recommend anyone to give modding FFVI or FFV a shot. This is my first time, and it definitely was easier than expected once I got the hang of it.

Is there a way to alter it? I want to add atleast 1 head higher to add more detail, if not I'll look for ways to use the grid to my advantage. thanks

Nope the sprite sheets are static at the moment. Be sure to post your progress. Good luck!

Edit: Here are the steps I perform when replacing an entire sprite sheet from another sprite sheet. Be sure to read them in case you haven't worked with indexed mode or color pallettes.

Basically, there's an invisible grid around each character. You have a bit of padding for the height and width, but not much. I'd test it out to see how big the invisible square is, by adding pixels and seeing where the cut off is.

Oh, certain sprites like Umaru and Mog, have different sprite sheets for all of the status effects, while the other chracter sprites' border color, including the rest of the colors that have the #101010 color code, will change dynamically in-game to the respective status effect color. So in this case some characters only have one sprite sheet, and others have multiple.

Which sprite sheets (i.e. filenames)? I can take a look and see what you mean.

Moving thread to FFVIII subforum :)

It's definitely possible via a method such as Tonberry[forums.qhimm.com]. I hope the team over at Qhimm add support for it.
