Little edit of SotN Trevor.

If anyone wants to use this or make the rest of the standing frames feel free to do so.

I like it a little better than the default Richter standing sprite.

The palette on the left is the original Richter palette. The one on the right is custom; it blends in better with more drab background colors.

It really just looks like there is less color to me. Which is a good thing but I dont see any difference other than that.

New Richter > Old, would look better in the game, the old one is too loud.

You don't see a difference because you've never inserted it into a game that doesn't use bright Rondo tiles LOL.

It uses the same amount of color, just a slightly different coloration.

The outfit may be a little bit more faithful to the Rondo coverart, too.

I've never put a sprite into any game, >.> But other than changing the color, (still seeems like its just less color) did you redraw or anything? cuz I really can't find much difference.

Just to clarify, other than the palette there's not supposed to be a difference. The Richter on the right (in the first picture) is simply a palette mod to another, alternative Richter sprite I made using SotN Trevor as a base.

I made one using the original Rondo palette and realized Rondo's colors are a little too "loud", so I duplicated it, altering the color so that it blends in better with darker backgrounds.

So, you honestly can't tell a difference in palettes here (official Richter vs. custom edit-job):

Hehehe thanks. Hard work -- it took 3 minutes to make. :P

I think I will make a complete set now. I'd like to redo every single Richter frame. I may change his wristbands and other details to be more faithful to the Rondo cover art.

WOAH, I had no idea you made running frames for that old Simon spriteset. Those are impressive. You should have got in touch with me when I was making the homebrew... I would have put you to work haha.

Do you have anymore spritework or animations you care to share?

Title: Re: Richter stance edit
Post by: Long John Silver on December 07, 2007, 05:04:57 PM
Not yet, sadly. The main character's code seems to be almost finished though, with some debugging left, and it's the worst part of the code since it'll then have to be copied to each and every area and room, thus once the area coding begins there'll be no more way to fix any future bugs.

So once that part's done it should go much faster.

btw.

i hoping the sotn hack will be able to use edited sprite ;D
they said they can use edit tile backgrounds and change the map so they might.
this sprite set would be very cool in sotn
be cool

Wow the WORK you put into someone else's starting sprite set is impressive. And they don't look bad to me, but then I'm no sprite riper so maybe I just don't see the flaws easily (if there are any).

Seriously all this stuff looks good, and yeah the second Richter is more faitfhul to the box art.

Wouldn't it be easier to just work off Richter's sprites. I mean Trevor's sprites are derived from Richters anyway. Well, most of them.
Title: Re: Richter stance edit
Post by: Kojjiro! on July 05, 2008, 10:47:29 AM
There is actually a massive difference between Trevor's SOTN sprites and Richters DraculaX sprites. Not only do they have better shading placement, they are also 'stylistically' different. Richters sprites are more reminiscent of the classic Castlevania's, Trevor's arent.

I've made some pretty good progress with the sprites. As an example I'd show you a GIF of the throwing animation, but I'm lost as to how I can get the GIF on this post. I tried the 'insert image' button, but I didn't get how to get the image on the page from that. So, if anyone could by any chance tell me how to put a GIF file on this page, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Those are some awsome sprites mgfcortez! I especially like the Sonia spritesheet. If your saying that it's bad then my fellow sprite artist there is only two things that you need to change before she shines in all her glory.

1. She's just a tad too tall.

2. Her upper thighs need to be thicker like a woman's and the breast area needs to be more pronounced.

Other then that, It's a killer sheet so DON'T STOP SPRITING!! :D

I can definitly see this version of Richter being used in a more darker toned CV game. Like what we got with SCV4. Deep, rich colors that set the mood for the game and an equally deep, rich colored Simon too.

Reduce the palette to 15 colors+transparency and it'll be the definitive Richter sprite sheet.

For transparency is generally intended a hidden color that is however included in the palette (unless it's done through alpha channels in true color). I wasn't talking about Castlevanian Ghostbusters. :p

Just an update. Progress is going great, working on the walking animation now... Once I'm finished with this animation I'd imagine that progress will speed up since many other animations take parts from the walking animation  ;).

And to anyone interested in using this sheet for homebrews or something just let me know and chances are I'll let you.
