Cat Face set x2

[Shiverz_UK]

Hey there!

umm.. I hope I filled this in right ?

Resource Type: Face Sets

Maker Format: MV

Art Style: MV style?

Description: If at all possible I would like seperate face sets for two individual cats, and if possible a mixture of emotions too (they can't talk in-game so their facial expressions is their way of communication). The first cat is black and white (see reference image), I would like her to appear well groomed and neat. Where as the second cat is all black, and If possible I would like to look a little unkempt (not too much, maybe just a tuft or two).

Reference Images:

I know asking for two facesets with different emotions is asking a bit much, so if anyone could contribute I would be wholeheartedly greatful. Another thing to mention is that this is a game that I'm making for my partner, so the chances are low that it will ever be released to the public as it will be a very personal game for her. (You guessed it, those are our cats xD), though for what it's worth credits will be added with the individuals name regardless.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

i know the following link has no cat face, but since you use cats in your project you might like this link which i just found:
- CatCharSprites from pipoya
=> i found it here
(free assets list )

Thank you very much Dopan.

I have done my sprites already, which is a shame because I think that set would go well with my title rather well. I will be bookmarking that page for future refernce. Thank you very much for the suggestion.

You can use the emotion balloons to express different emotions over the sprites, that would save a lot of work on the faces.

This site has two cat busts you could cut into a MV face size and recolor one of them to fit Sparta's pattern (given that it has a black and white version of one of the cats you can pretty easily make the right pattern with a layer mask in gimp)

Thank you for the link. I'll definitely take a look at editing (I'm using GIMP and I don't understand half of it, so I'm in the process of self teaching lol layer mask to me doesn't mean much. Atm GIMP to me is just a very cool MS Paint. But I'll go YT it).

Different expressions would still be prefferable, Even though they wont be talking, the cats will still be a huge part of the game, though I will use the balloons for now. I'm just slightly worried it wont gel well, but only time will tell

though I will use the balloons for now.

another coincidence.. that this one is also from pipoya..
but it might make the ballon solution more attractive^^

Sorry for the late reply. Those emote balloons will definitely help with the interaction of the cats. Until I actually draw a cat face that resembles a cat that is lol.

Though I will admit, this is the frist title I've ever made... how exactly would one install the new balloons? I think I've been working on the title too much because I just can't find the right document in the core files XD

I'm guessing it's a c+p job when I know where it goes?

well i didnt tested that yet with pipoyas stuff, but here are 2 images i have(different projects) the left is not edited and the right is edited


Also i downloaded pipoyas file and there are 2 images next to a folder.
I think the one Image should work if its renamed into "Balloon"
( i only assume that, i didnt test anything )


if that doesnt work there should be a Tutorial on how to add balloons anywhere..

EDIT
probably you need a Yep Plugin..look @this thread for more info. Here.#4
