W:A Forum style

[Alien King]

ok. i'm working on replacing the sprites in W:A with custom ones i made. i have decided to do it based on forum members worm characters.

eg. the dragonball worm sprite will be changed into akuryou

the neutral worm sprite will not be changed!

here is the list of the characters that i have put together (nowhere near finished)

i intend to replace all of the weapon worm sprites, and some of the utility worm sprites

my knowledge on worm characters is very limited, so i need to know them and a suggestion in the weapon used

the attached list will be edited a lot (sorry it's a word document text document now attached too)

edit: this list only contains people's places which are very unlikly to be changed

Work so far has been UPLOADED! : http://www.blamethepixel.com/file.php?id=0059

edit: Attached Palette file if anyone who want to help needs it.

[Preasure]

Looks like a good idea. T17 would never do it, but it looks good all the same. Could you put me in? maybe use my Extendable Toasting Fork as the Prod or Baseball Bat?

Also, before Trax gets in here:

MORE SPRITES??? *@^X$&!!!!

[Alien King]

T17 would never do it

which is why i am

fork for prod? hmmm, i'll see

[Swed Simon]

It will take a heck of a time to hack the game so much. Btw, isn't the sprites somewhere in the D:\ ?

[Alien King]

no. the main sprite directory is data\graphics\gfx.dir

this contains the data for all the sprites (took me ages to work this out)

so (hopefully) all i have to do, is edit all the .bmp's that will come out of that (thx to the sprite editor)

[X-Worm]

It will take a heck of a time to hack the game so much. Btw, isn't the sprites somewhere in the D:\ ?

It depends on where you installed W:A... :rolleyes:

[Alien King]

It depends on where you installed W:A... :rolleyes:

somehow i don't think it does

soooooooo...

is anyone gonna actually help me out here?

[Cyclaws]

Ooh, thanks for using me for rope :)

By the way, when you have finished, could you post it here? I might use it...

[wccSplintr]

Nice idea, could be interesting...
Could you se me for invisibility? Since I'm kinda Splinter Cell...

[beaver2009]

Can I be in for mole(beaver?)bomb

[Alien King]

Ooh, thanks for using me for rope :)

By the way, when you have finished, could you post it here? I might use it...

your welcome, i saw your status on the bwa forum as a rope lover, and i know u love the rope (and are quite good with it) and i didn't know who else

and of course i'll post it here (why wouldn't i?) however it will take bloody ages to make

Nice idea, could be interesting...
Could you se me for invisibility? Since I'm kinda Splinter Cell...

mabye. however, invisibilty doesn't require a sprite (i think)

i'll see

Can I be in for mole(beaver?)bomb

i'll see, i was thinking of using oldskoolcrazy for the mole weapon thrower (as he is a mole worm)

i'll try to make u the weapon (the actual mole)

[Swed Simon]

Wow... So this really is serious? Could you then make my sig worm the uh... Greande? No..hmmm. Uh, jetpack? freeze?

O-oyeah Freeze! It got a hat and everything!

[Alien King]

Wow... So this really is serious?

yes u.....

FOOL!

i ain't that stupid to create a thread for no reason (well, not anymore (i hope))

u want to be a freeze sprite? why? i thought u would be a grenade thrower

[Swed Simon]

yes u.....

FOOL!

i ain't that stupid to create a thread for no reason (well, not anymore (i hope))

u want to be a freeze sprite? why? i thought u would be a grenade thrower
I thought you didn't need any greanade thrower... But yeah if possable I much rather be a nader! :D

[Alien King]

I thought you didn't need any greanade thrower... But yeah if possable I much rather be a nader! :D

ok. i'll update the list tomorrow

i'll be working on this over the weekend (hopefully sooner, depending on the homework situation)

[wccSplintr]

If there isn't, is it possible to make one?
(invisibility sprite)

[Bucket]

Uh ... I actually can't open the file (it says there's an error with a program or whatever)

Do I appear in anything of it? ... if not , I'd like to be in the ... um , well ... let's say , Grenade? Yea! I could launch a bucket and it explode! (couldn't find anything better)

I also hope that this will be compatible with wwp ...

[Glenn]

Well, if you want it for anything, here's my sig worm (baseball bat? I dunno.).

Edit: Okay, for some reason it just doesn't want to display right (that white border shouldn't be there)...

[bonz]

then i wanna be the 'surrender' worm!
maybe with 'bonz' on the white flag...

[asylumjim]

You can use me as a suicide bomber if you dont have anyone else in mind.

[Sn!perWorm]

Woo!I'm in!:)(BTW,you forgot "!" ;) )

I have an idea for Bucket-Bazooka!

[anders339]

Me in? No talk about it!! I KNOW , A Mario Worm that instead of throwing an grenade, it's an FIREBALL!!!

[Alien King]

Me in? No talk about it!! I KNOW , A Mario Worm that instead of throwing an grenade, it's an FIREBALL!!!

nope, you can be the petrol bomb thrower (mabye)

u need a special program to look at it

grenade is taken by swed

plz don't ask to be anything that's taken up (like the grenade)

it would help a lot if your sig worm had something in common to the weapon it will use

[SargeMcCluck]

I'd suggest making me use the handgun but that'd make your life difficult;

http://www.wormiverse.com/images/staffsigs/SargeMcCluck.gif

:P

[Sn!perWorm]

That ":P" is put DEFINATELY right. :rolleyes:

Wow,I never saw someone shooting a handgun behind and the shots to go in the front...

...or is it only an example and he doesn't always shoot behind?

[SargeMcCluck]

He shoots infront, the smoke is coming out because he's already shot and is now holding the gun up.

The problem I was thinking of was the whole "yellow, feathered and has a beak" thing.

[Alien King]

The problem I was thinking of was the whole "yellow, feathered and has a beak" thing.

the colours can be easily replaced with the programs i have

(it's the beack and red bits on a chicken that will be hard (u *******))

handgun is know taken

[wccSplintr]

This is going to be sooooo confusing to people who play online but don't know the forum :p or would it not work online?

Maybe deadcode could add an option in next update to have "Team17 Forum SigWoms" enablable? Dunno really...

people who don't have this or are not using it, will not be able to see it. as it is replacing the normal sprite directory (make a backup of this)

when u make a move, it is telling the other players to load a certain sprite. so if u replace this sprite with something else (with the same name) u will change how it looks (to u only)

remember, this will take ages (and i mean bloody ages) to make and get working correctly


on a lighter note:

WORK HAS BEGUN!

i have succeeded in changing 3 sprites (the dball, the dball boom and the kamikaze star trail thing (to suit the look of akuryou))

unfortunatly, the colours have turned out wrong. the dark red loads, but the other colours are replaced with black (this looks really bad on the dball and the boom)

here are some screenies

edit: list updated

[Cyclaws]

:eek: Thats very nicely done. Congratulations.

[Alien King]

:eek: Thats very nicely done. Congratulations.

thx

does any1 have any idea why the black is there?

(yes, the colours are at 256)

Only people who use the custom gfx.dir will see them - If you have it and I don't, you'll see the new ones and I'll see the old ones.

[wccSplintr]

This is sooo cool!

I just thought of an idea that you HAVE to do, plssssss... Could you make me the parachute? Then I could always rope around as me!

[Alien King]

This is sooo cool!

I just thought of an idea that you HAVE to do, plssssss... Could you make me the parachute? Then I could always rope around as me!

um, the chute and rope are taken

(check the list for ideas that are not taken)

[wccSplintr]

No it isn't? Who has chute?

[Bucket]

I have an idea for Bucket-Bazooka!

Well if nade is taken well how about what Sn!per said? I could launch bazooka from a bucket! Yea!

I would've taken the dragon ball but as aku already has it ...

[Sn!perWorm]

Well,if you ask me,I really like the colors which are now.

BTW,where I can get the sprite editor?;)

[Alien King]

No it isn't? Who has chute?

pilot u fool

i think the colours suk, but i'll keep em if u like em (i'm worried that's these will have an effect on the other sprites when i edit those)

[Cyclaws]

I like em, and the black makes it look for powerful.

[Sn!perWorm]

pilot u fool

i think the colours suk, but i'll keep em if u like em (i'm worried that's these will have an effect on the other sprites when i edit those)
I like them,dunno about others...

[Alien King]

yeah well.

i have hit a large barrier on the road to progress

i have now edited the kamikaze sprites (to suit akuryou) only part of the background flame (which is red) shows. the rest is black (apart from the teeth and eyes i think) (this is when i only play the game)

i have know started again (for the 5th time) and have started experimenting to see if i can fix this

list edited

[Cyclaws]

I wonder if Deadcode could help you with this. Maybe you could ask.

[RastaMahata]

actually a long time ago roadmaster and I tried to do this, but we got tired because it required a lot of time. but then again, we wanted to make new sprites from scratch (ninja teddy bears, psycho chefs, etc)... when we made the first animation (walking), it looked like crap (palette problem), and I didnt had the knowledge to fix the problem at that time. If I only had the time to try again now... :(

[bloopy]

Perhaps it would be helpful to use the existing palette or decide on a new one to use? Although Deadcode is planning to do away with the palette thing completely.

My worm is in my avatar, it's a sort of an alien. Maybe I could be teleport? I'll have a go at doing a teleport animation of Bloopy worm if I find the time.

[Sn!perWorm]

I've got an idea for pilot-what do you think about making him to call air strikes?

[Alien King]

Perhaps it would be helpful to use the existing palette or decide on a new one to use?

um, how do i do that?

and, sure u can do teleport (can't be 2 hard)

and pilot's already got enough to do

[Sn!perWorm]

I was just asking.:)

BTW,one note-I use SCOPED SHOTGUN,not sniper rifle!

I accidentally typed "i" instead of "o" in the shotgun now:D

[Alien King]

I was just asking.:)

yeah well. u used a scoped SNIPER rifle now

[Sn!perWorm]

Definately not now.Long time ago.:pJust look at my av...

[Alien King]

oh fine

i still think u should use a sniper rifle. but hey, a scoped shotgun is easier (that way i don't have to change any sound files (shame i've already done that))

so, final choice, sniper rifle, or scoped shotgun?

edit: work has been delayed due to this colour problem. help on it would be great

double post edit:

a small success

i have succeeded in changing the colour of a crosshair (from blue to red) by changing the colours in the palette

however! when i tried to do the same thing to the dball, kamikaze star thing, and dball boom. the same problem has before occured

[anders339]

WTF????
Petrol Bomb = Paul.Power????
Shouldn't I be the Petrol dude?

[Alien King]

...Neither had I...

AK, could you update the list of who's doing what, that way people might stop asking for things that have already been taken.

i will when i got some more definate people

edit: i need to be definate about this. but, will the sprite editor, work properly with the updates (i know the fiddler won't, and the sprite editor was made by the same person. so...)

double post edit:

Well, if you want it for anything, here's my sig worm (baseball bat? I dunno.).

alright. i was thinking u could be the firepunch sprite (i can get this to work (assuming i can fix this colour problem))

Scoped shotgun.:)BTW,sniper rifle just wouldn't fit into WA shotgun,because you can't stick laser sight into the shotgun all the game...(I mean,the sight to be integral with the shotgun)OK,enough of this gun talking...:p

[Alien King]

i can make the shotgun look like the sniper rifle, but it won't have the laser sight (but i will draw a scope)

scoped shotgun it is then

oh, and my 1st success

(i know it ain't much, it was just a test)

[Bucket]

*Reminder* ...

Well if nade is taken well how about what Sn!per said? I could launch bazooka from a bucket! Yea!

I would've taken the dragon ball but as aku already has it ...

Forgot about that already?

[Alien King]

*Reminder* ...



Forgot about that already?

no, but there is a slight problem. the mortar is taken by philby. but the mortar uses the same gun sprite as the zook

so... u'll have to do something else (no i havn't forgot about u)

[Bucket]

Can you just post the list? I can't see the folder!

So , i might AGAIN take a weapon that someone else is in (well , you get the thing)

[Alien King]

I know the lis is there but i can't dl it or anything! I get an error ... am i missing a program or what?

Lemme see the list first

[Alien King]

u need microsoft word

i'll post it here as a .txt document (1st post)

[Bucket]

Go for freeze then

[Alien King]

ok

here is the 1st sprite for the thing

IGUANA AS THE FLAMETHROWER! (even though the flames come out a little way from his mouth, and he don't move much. he still looks good)

note: the flames come out closer to the mouth than in the pic. there he's just stopped fireing)

[Bucket]

That's nice! :)

Hope that this project will eventually be completly finished

[SuperBlob]

That's cool Alien King. I would've asked to be suicide because in the game the worms head grows and then explodes, and you could've made the worms stomach grow then explode. Although my avatar hasn't been made yet, the worm is supposed to be incredibly fat. Understand? 'Cause I'm not sure I do!

[Alien King]

That's nice! :)

Hope that this project will eventually be completly finished

thx

this thing will eventually be completed (i'm going on holiday soon, so u won't see me here and i won't be able to work on it soon (i'm gone for 2 weeks after thursday))

Alien King, after you have finished this BIG project, do you think you could set up a service for the same sort of thing:

[Alien King]

actually, all it means is that i'll have to patch my computer (the one where the work is being done) and get the iguana sprites back (not too hard (shame that the network is down (damn floppy's are 2 small (back to burning again))))

work might continue tomorrow (depending on homework)

[Preasure]

Duuuude, I thought you said I was the Prod? It won't exactly be hard to make, I've done the Preasure sprite myself, in my av.

ok, i've checked the gfx.dir file. the new mortar sprite isn't in it. it's appears to be in one of the new gfx files (gfx0.dir and gfx1.dir) thus, i cannot edit it (besides, i don't think they're used in MP online anyway)

so, there can only be one person for the zook and motar (sry) (no, i can't seem to edit the new gfx files either) (i've tried)

when i used the mortar online, it didn't use the new barrel

Maybe it wasn't using the latest update because someone hadn't updated?

What's your name online?

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooo
I won't be able to have them, because The game now uses GFX0.die and GFX1.dir so if you can't edit them, i won't be able to do it...

work on this stuff won't continue until i recover from jet-lag

[wccSplintr]

Welcome back AK


I think I have something with a sprite this time :) Blow-dart (long-bow)

[anders339]

I now have checked the list and I thought i could have the Napalm Strike with Fireballs.

Sorry about me asking for stuff here all the time but I MUST BE IN!!

[SuperBlob]

I could be concrete donkey! An absolutely huge, fat worm fall from the sky!

[wccSplintr]

Now THAT Is A GREAT Idea!!!

[Alien King]

I now have checked the list and I thought i could have the Napalm Strike with Fireballs.

Sorry about me asking for stuff here all the time but I MUST BE IN!!

the napalm strike doesn't use unique sprites. so, um... sry

and splintr, wigwam is the longbow. CHECK THE LIST, AND DO NOT USE WEAPONS LISTED!

thank you

[Sn!perWorm]

Hi back AK.

Splintr,you make me think more and more your sig carries a weapon factory.:p

IIRC Fire Punch is free,isn't it?If yes,maybe make it a knife?If not,I have no idea.:p

[wccSplintr]

IIRC Fire Punch is free,isn't it?If yes,maybe make it a knife?If not,I have no idea.:p
Fire punch is taken, Glenn's sword

How about... DAMN! I'll try and think of something if your not ignoring me yet :)

[Alien King]

IIRC Fire Punch is free,isn't it?If yes,maybe make it a knife?If not,I have no idea.:p

fire punch is taken by glenn

oh, and what does IIRC mean?

i can't make the concrete donkey into a fat worm for severeal reasons

1. i can't make a worm fat and make it look good
2. i can't enlarge a worm to that size
3. i would have to replace a lot of sounds
4. what the hell would that do to the holy wisdom of the donkey
5. i just don't want to replace the donkey like that


after having a look at these new sprite directory files, i have a theory. the new patch will work with a true colour pallete. (this has yet to be tested)

[wccSplintr]

IIRC - If I Recall Correctly

1. No one can.
2. Obviously.
3. Fair enough.
4. WHAT THE HELL!!!
5. Too true.

after having a look at these new sprite directory files, i have a theory. the new patch will work with a true colour pallete. (this has yet to be tested)
What difference will that make? (idiot terms please :p)

[Alien King]

What difference will that make? (idiot terms please :p)


previously, as everyone knows, the game only runs properly using 256 colour pallete

this gave me a lot of problems, as i can only change 1 colour on the pallete per sprite (dunno why)

if my theory is correct, when i update my comp, all my probs will be solved (hopefully)

[anders339]

the napalm strike doesn't use unique sprites. so, um... sry

Here's my suggestion. It would be a neat idea if you put me as the mine user, and replace the mine with a Crash Bomb with the pointy side pointing down. By the way, here (http://megaman.retrofaction.com/art/pics/270.jpg) is a picture of MM using the Crash Bomb for the curious. :)

Here's my suggestion. It would be a neat idea if you put me as the mine user, and replace the mine with a Crash Bomb with the pointy side pointing down. By the way, here (http://megaman.retrofaction.com/art/pics/270.jpg) is a picture of MM using the Crash Bomb for the curious. :)

Edit: Link fixed. :o

who the hell is MM?

and what's that got to do with your name anyway?

[SuperBlob]

who the hell is MM?

1) MegaMan!
2) I haven't got a clue!:rolleyes:

[wccSplintr]

I think he is wearing a MegaMan helmet?

[Alien King]

after looking around on this computer, in the sprite directory file, and after some testing, i have discoverd:

that the normal file doesn't seem to be used, and the 2 new ones don't seem to contain proper sprites (after i extract them, the .bmp's there are 0 bytes (and when i load them, there is no pic))

if i try to change these sprites, i get problems. (same as the 1st problems i had)

i'll let u know if i have any breakthroughs

any help on this matter would be nice

Now, who created the sprite editor?... :D

ah, i was wrong

he is here (or, at least, some1 with the same name is here)

http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=7021

he hasn't posted for a year though

double post edit:

a success (at last)

i have changed the ninja rope sprite and made it cyclaws

i did this by removing the 2 new sprite files, so the original file would be used


Notes

Due to its larger size, this release is distributed as a self-extracting executable. With 7zip it can acheive a higher compression ratio than that of which the ZIP format is capable.

Due to the changes regarding colours, a pair of new sprite archives have been included in this release. These files are approximately 12 MB each, and are not internally compressed because this allows the distributed package to compress much better (for a quicker download).

If you are not going to use the colour deficiency option, you may safely delete Gfx1.dir, freeing 12 MB of hard disk space. Similarly, if you are only going to use it, you may delete Gfx0.dir. Deleting them both will still allow W:A to run, but will disable the new colour features.

The original Gfx.dir is still used for compatibility purposes. Do not delete it.

Due to the larger sprite archive, W:A now requires 8 MB more RAM than before. If this is a problem for you, please post in the support forum (see section 5.0).

As an upshot, W:A may run be slightly faster in-game since it will not need to decompress sprites on the fly.

there we go.

(the blue lines on the cape are there for editing reasons only (they will not be removed either))

What happened to Aku's Dragon ball and Kamikazi?

[Cyclaws]

I've just had a little play with it, and I must say it is brilliant! Although I only noticed 2 that were working (roping and flameflower), there were no bugs that I could see, and it looked great. Nice job!

[Alien King]

the only ones that are working and that r included r the 2 cyclaws mentiond.

the dball and kamikaze were removed as they where bugged.

cyclaws, is the ninja rope cape pure black, or black with a blue outline for you? (in the game)

strange...

i made it with a blue background (on this computer), and it worked

when i added the iguana sprite to this computer, it changed 2 white. on the other computer, when i added the cyclaws sprite, it was a completely black cape with no outline, the iguana sprite remained unchanged.

OK,sounds nice.May you send them to me too?I'll send you my e-mail via PM...

[wormy99]

ok. i'm working on replacing the sprites in W:A with custom ones i made. i have decided to do it based on forum members worm characters.

eg. the dragonball worm sprite will be changed into akuryou

the neutral worm sprite will not be changed!

here is the list of the characters that i have put together (nowhere near finished)

i intend to replace all of the weapon worm sprites, and some of the utility worm sprites

my knowledge on worm characters is very limited, so i need to know them and a suggestion in the weapon used

the attached list will be edited a lot (sry it's a word document)

edit: this list only contains people's places which are very unlikly to be changed

Is the place for bazooka taken? if not put me a that one for my sig worm look at my signiture ;)

Well then you'll have to change the respective one under:

Everyone support me here! Set your grave as whichever one he uses for my flag! If you want I might even be able to give you the .spr file and the .spd file. I know exactly how to get it according to the worms palette.

that's not the answer i was looking for.

i wanted to know what u actually did

[XxDangerxX]

I forgot what I did exactly, but I used paint shop pro with all it's palette importing/exporting features, animtion shop with it's custom palette importing in the compression wizard, Worms Armageddon\Graphics\weaponspalette.pal, and most important of all, James Heather's Sprite Editor.

ok. is the James Heather's Sprite Editor the same as fudgeboy's?

and why did u use anishop?

[XxDangerxX]

James Heather IS Fudge Boy!

I used animation shop because of the way it can export .gifs with a custom palette, even if it's just a single frame .gif

EDIT: 5 posts 'til I'm a senior!

ok. so u saved the .bmp as a .gif

optimized it in ani shop

opened it up in psp

saved it as a .bmp

is that right?

[XxDangerxX]

No I was talking about the .spr files. For the BITMAPS, I got the .gif, copied the first frame, pasted it into paint shop pro, raised the colours to 24-bit, resized it to fit the 24 pixel width (the 32 pixel height is not an issue), lowered it to 8-bit according to weaponspalette.pal, and saved it as a bitmap. The initial was a .gif, not a .bmp; there was NO initial .bmp.

[Alien King]

i'm confused

from the start

i open the sprite editor

i find the sprite i want

i click on extract and convert

i now have a .bmp file and a .spd file ([name of sprite].spr.bmp and [name of sprite].spr.spd)

what do u do next?

[XxDangerxX]

Oh I get it. No, I don't extract and convert the sprite.I just used the extract, convert, log button. I then made the bitmap from the waving flag gif by copying each frame one by one with all the right palettes and such, replace grave#.bmp, edit grave#.spd accordingly, and reconstruct from log. Then there's a nice little perfectly created sprite of my waving flag under grave#.spr. I then extract it and put it into a zip file.

Questions?

here's what i know

when i load up the sprite file after i've converted it into a .bmp, it's got it's own little pallete. i can change one colour in this pallete, and one colour on the image. anymore, and things start going wrong. so if i load into the image, the weapon pallete taken from the pallete directory, it all goes to hell

any ideas why?

[Akuryou13]

just so you know, AK. I've done the entire DragonBall animation with my sigworm in it already. if you want the file I can easily post it (my dragonball avatar).

unless there's a color problem with the way I did it, it should work fine.

in animation shop or whatever, u have a transparant background. it's not a problem. but .bmps don't support that, so the background is black

it can occasionaly look good

and i do hope that u have every frame of the dragon ball animation. that would be so useful

actually...it works now....but it is white....i guess because of the colour palette...I could need some help with that...because I am totally noob with that

Black on black...

You do realise that black means transparent? If you don't want a see-through bandanna, I suggest you change the black on the bandanna to the darkest grey in the palette

EDIT: I'm going off to try implementing my grave into the actual game now.

EDIT2: You're right. It doesn't work. The best palette match is with grave5. I have the working grave sprite with it's respective bitmap (For the create team screen). Extract to your Team17 folder. Do NOT extract it to your Worms Armageddon folder as you usually would, as it will create some unwanted folders. Click "Yes" to "Do you want to replace such and such". If you want to restore the old gravestone5.bmp, just delete the new one and just take off the .saf at the end of gravestone5.bmp.saf. Do as well with grave5.spd/.bmp/.spr.saf

[Alien King]

Black on black...

You do realise that black means transparent? If you don't want a see-through bandanna, I suggest you change the black on the bandanna to the darkest grey in the palette

actually, pallete index 1 (or possibly 0) is transparant

this just so happens to be black. part of the eyes of the worm are black, but not transparant, cyclaws' cape is black, but not transparant

[XxDangerxX]

Oh, really? Well, you might want to take a look at a screenshot I took from WWP's mission editor.

[Alien King]

Oh, really? Well, you might want to take a look at a screenshot I took from WWP's mission editor.

the terrains are made differently. they just take black as the transparant background

if i gave u the sprite directory i made, u would see that cyclaws' cape is pure black.

here ya go

look at them in order, and pay attention to the colours

don't u think it would be a bit pointless argueing to me about blacks? the worms pupils, eyebrows, the mad cows, they all have black in them

[SargeMcCluck]

He's right btw. I always set the first palette entry to be bright pink for my graves so that the background is easier to sort out.

FINALLY!

I HAVE DONE A BLOOPY SPRITE

i have also fixed the small colour problem on cyclaws, and hopefully, i've sorted out the colour problem altogether (though i doubt it)

here are some nice little pics of bloopy

i've got more testing to do

pics are up

this is the 5th time i've had to write this msg

double post edit

ok

after some testing, i have learnt that i can add more than 1 colour, but i'm limited to this palette if i do

[Alien King]

and another achievement

danger is now a grave stone

he's grave 5

double post edit

the list is now updated (a bit)

I HAVE DONE A BLOOPY SPRITEincorrectly! :p

bloopy has antennae (sp) on the top of his head. he's not just a blue worm. also, is it possible to edit the brownish around the worm to be blueish? the brown looks kinda dumb on a blue worm.

i have not done it incorrectly

the sprite i have edited, is the transition between the normal worm, and the bloopy worm

i'll put it into an animation shall i, and i'll also post up the last frame

(the bloopy worm is an alien worm as far as i know)

and yes, it's an alien worm, it's a blue alien worm with antennae.

here u go

after quickly doing it, here is the animation with extended frame time on the last frame

(obviously it's much faster in the game)

oh, and i've also managed to get the grave icon for danger to work in create team menu

[Evil Bunny]

oww, looks cool, need up and down-hill images tough. The doc file in the beginning says a couple of 'm are already done, where can i get them to put in worms?

i'll e-mail u the work so far if u wish

the up and down files are going to have different transition effetcs each

2 reasons why.

1. that one was a pain to do

2. it will add variation

then i'll have to do the teleportation effects, which will also have up and down ones

anyway........

i'll email u the stuff so far and a readme file (it's all to big to post here)

[Evil Bunny]

that'd be cool, thanks, if u want, i can arrange some space on my clan's server, so i can put stuff on when it's finished.

[Muzer]

if U haven't already, can U keep e-mailing me when U get a new version?
I've PMed you my address

that would be useful

only when i've finished though

and i'm emailing it to u 2 now

email done

[Muzer]

OMG! The new grave ROCKS!
What happened to the bloopy teleport?

[Alien King]

isn't it there?

u have to be on a flat surface, and u'll see the transitition effect, then it'll go back to normal

double post edit

ok

that's a third of all the bloopy sprites

i've done all of the transition effect (where i've replaced the worm getting out the teleport)

Could you give us a detailed explanation how you manage to change sprites, so that we can eventually help editing sprites?

um........ mabye later

i'm trying to edit the teleporting effect to use with bloopy. that's 48 frames of manuel editing (i actually only have to go up to 30 though, the rest will be plain empty (and i'm 18))

[bloopy]

What you've done there looks great I think! :cool:
