Spirited Sprites - Graphics pack with 8-directional NPCs and animals
Spoiler: Original Post: • show

Hey y'all, I've been drawing sprites for this game for years, but never really released anything myself.
I contributed to Wickham's Graphical Enhancement Project back in the day, and have a few sprites in the base game now, and did all the sprites for Night's Character Designer. Still working on that one, once in a while.

Anyways, I decided to share some of what I have made up to now, currently I'm working on making animals and NPCs in 8 directional sprites, and I'm interested in what you guys think.

Also, I noticed "Galgana's creature sprites" has a few animals with w after the name, does that enable winter version sprites?

I will update when I have more to share, I hope to have a complete graphics pack one day. Enjoy!






Description:
Spirited Sprites is purely a graphical mod with focus on realism and esthetics.
A large portion of the pack is adding 8 directional sprites to the game, both NPCs and animals.
All animals are completely remade with 3d references, while NPCs are based on the original game sprites.

Installation and Use:
Unpack in truetile folder and overwrite all.
Alternatively unpack somewhere else, and copy over the files you want.
Copy over wanted files from Spirited Sprites Optional folder. Note the truegfx images need to be copied to the right folder.

Use "a-SS-summer.bat" and "a-SS-winter.bat" to change back and forth from snowcovered graphics.
Press F9 in game to update graphics.

8-Directional Blacksmiths for Spirited Sprites Krutzelpuntz's Spirited Sprites is a must-have in my game, but it came out before blacksmiths were added, so it doesn't have 8-directional blacksmith sprites.

Until now!

Here are blacksmith sprites for all three cultural variants (east, north, and west). I based them on the existing default blacksmiths and Spirited Sprites craftsmen for their respective cultures, and added a leather smock like the one the default blacksmith sprites wear. I thought about making it more of an apron, shorter in the back, and I might still rework them, but for now I decided the smock makes them easier to distinguish even when they're facing away from you.

Just drop these three png files into your truetile folder and let them overwrite. If you see room for improvement, let me know, but I'll probably keep fine-tuning them as the mood strikes.

There is a zip file attached but here are the individual png files for you to look at below (and here's an imgur gallery):

Northern


Western
