Hello ! I would like to show you an idea i had today, inspired by the 3d software "creature creator". I'll try to do a similar program but for 2d colored and animated sprites. This is a screenshot : Sorry if the alien i've made is not enought beautiful, but i'm not a pixel artist. I'm searching for a graphist interested by the project. I'll program all, i've a clear idea in my head of what to do, and i don't need money, so, if someone is interested to work with me, the software will be him's when it will be finished. It can be a shareware, a freeware... the only thing that i want is to program it. It can be a usefull tool for "2d beat them all" games if there is a lot of creatures limbs/animations. I very hope this project will be created :-) |

OK so it will do all the bodypart moves by itself? But I don't thin kit will handle torso turning left and right let's say when you are slaying a dragon with a big sword... :P Tough call doing a good and efficient tool for this. Also, you could have movement of the eyes, or head turning... |

There will be those animations : static idle walking running crouch jump protect hands attack (kick with hands) leg attack simple gun attack (like a sword or axe) firegun (one arm) firegun (two arms) power 1 (a sangoku like attack) power 2 (a shinobi like attack) power 3 (undefined at this time) get a hit die For each bodypart, they will be those animations. The sprites movements will be inspired by the games "altered beast", "barbarian 2" and "rastan saga" |

This is a simple creature combo screenshot : |

Um, I think they did something like this on the Commodore 64 in 1982 or something. Cant remember who the publisher was.(Maybe Commodore?) Perhaps you should get hold of that and have a look? Maybe someone here can remember the name of the game??! |

The sprites movements will be inspired by the games "altered beast", "barbarian 2" and "rastan saga" Rastan Saga!!!!!!!!!!!! :P~~~~ OK, so when do you think this will be ready? :D |

I know "5th axe" on amstrad cpc, where monsters where bodyparts randomely used together. Is it the game you say, mrbombermillzy ? |
| ||
the program will be quickly made but sprites for sprites, it's another thing... :-) |
| ||
Hi, It could be a very useful tool. But I don't uderstand what you expect from an 2D artist now... |
| ||
Hi R�no, I need a 2d artist to draw better that i can do ! :-) The best i can do is here : , but i've not enought knowledge on pixel art to make all animations alone. |

Attends, mais tu es fran�ais !!! Ecris-moi sur : information@... Explique moi en quoi consisterait ta demande ( dessiner un personnage en entier, ou alors faire une t�te, un bras, etc par fichier ). Peut-�tre que je peux t'aider ;) a+ |
| ||
Salut R�no :-) Je viens de t'envoyer un email avec le logiciel et quelques explications, dis moi ce que tu en penses. @+ |

@Vignoli >J'ai bien re�u ton message. Je regarde tout �a demain ;) |
| ||
Oki R�no. :-) |
| ||
R�no, I have a problem with your e-mail. twice the message comes back... |
| ||
how are the animations put together? |
| ||
Hi, they will be for each bodypart 5 sprites by animation. (but they are no animation for the static position) Each animation has a ".txt" file containing how the limbs are joined together, for each animation. |
