Unreal World Redrawn

Description

Hey guys  , over the past week I've had a bit of a creative streak and decided to get back into drawing sprites for UW. I'm pretty happy with how these have come out, it's taken alot of trial and error to find colours that I felt were realistic while keeping true to the vibrant art style of the vanilla game. Since the release of Spirited Sprites by Krutzelpuntz I decided to take a step back and enjoy his amazing contribution to the modding scene. Truth be told it was that graphics pack which has heavily inspired this one, and I have included some of Krutzelpuntz's sprites in this mod (most importantly the beautiful pines + animals).

Included are some images of Redrawn so you can really zoom in to see those crisp pixels .

I've got plenty of images on the Unreal World discord for people who want to see my progress and future updates to the mod.

So far my goal with this mod is to eventually redraw all of the plants and building sprites, basically anything that isn't an npc, animal or item. I honestly think Spirited Sprites has reached the pinnacle of how detailed you could redraw animal sprites in this game, so I focused my attention to more lacking areas of the modding scene such as the landscape.

Currently the only thing left to work on is redrawing the elevation, herbs/mushrooms/crops, and perhaps the log buildings.

Everyone has my permission to change or use this mod in any way they see fit as long as those changes and uses are for the purpose of modding Unreal World.

Mod Releases / Remastered Animal Sprites

« on: December 11, 2021, 10:38:49 PM »

Hey, this is a compilation of several animal sprites I've been working on, in a style similar to Galgana's creature sprites while still keeping to a similar colour scheme to the vanilla game. These sprites currently fill the gaps in Galgana's sprites so I recommend using this alongside their mod.

I'll continue to work on this mod, I hope to cover all of the animals throughout 2022. I may even resprite other areas of the game such as the vegetation/groundcover once this mod is fully released (I've already started fiddling with the rain and snow sprites).

At the moment I have the badger, bear, beaver, glutton, and polecat sprites completed (finished in 3-4 days). If people leave feedback on the sprites I'll most likely alter anything that needs changing.

Simply download and open the zip file, and drag the truetile folder into the UW directory.

Modding / I'm currently working on an animal sprite overhaul, what do you guys think?

« on: December 06, 2021, 11:57:24 AM »

Hey guys, I've been working on a couple of animal sprites recently.

I've been a fan of Galgana's creature sprites (incredible, especially when compared to the vanilla sprites) for a long while and I thought I might as well try my hand at making sprites reminiscent of their work. These are still obviously my own creations (thanks MSPaint), but I wanted to create something that could be used in tandem with their mod, to fill the gaps more or less. Who knows, I may even create my own overhaul that covers all of the animals. If any of you have any suggestions on where I can improve or where I've f**ked up feel free to let me know. I've also dabbled with the rain and snow, it's always bugged me that you lose so much visibility in these weather conditions, but that's for another topic.

Here are the sprites, a humble badger, and beaver (already done the full sprites, these are just teasers).

EDIT: I modified the badger/beaver sprites and created two more, the glutton (wolverine) and polecat

General Discussion / Losing Braincells While Trying to Find Camouflaged Reindeer

« on: December 02, 2021, 02:02:36 AM »

Recently I was feeling confident ingame after a few successful hunts and quests so I accepted the "Animal in Forest Cover" quest. You probably already know where this is going.

I spent 2-3hrs irl searching in a spruce mire, aimlessly wandering trying to find the tracks of the demon stag. Long story short I've just quit the game and registered this account, specifically to ask why this godforsaken quest is in the game, if not to burn the image of thousands of spruce trees into my retina.

P.S please for the love of people's sanity significantly decrease the search circle if you read this Sami.
