Tall Charset (Evil Mage from RTP)

[Omega Five]

I just want to know if out there is a "tall" version of the Evil Mage from the RTP (this) ----->


Like this --->


Does it exist? Searching on Google won't help

That example style is called 'Mack sprites'. Grandma Deb made a list of them:




I'm not sure that particular sprite exists in that style though.

You can use those^


OR


Just off the top of my head I'd say replicating the sprites on bottom would be fairly easy as long as the sprite you are using to make "tall" has lines for where their legs are separated. The example on top wouldn't work at all it basically looks like that sprite has no legs. 


Anyways you would simply select their legs in photoshop with the handy magnetic tool, copy it, drag your copy legs exactly over those legs. Free transform and drag down a pixel or two. Save, reopen picture and resize the entire sprite as needed as you might be over a pixel or two from making it "taller" and voila taller sprite.

Well I'm sorry o.o only thing someone can do further than explaining how to make it is to make for you which if you want that this needs to be in a different part of forums of course. In your case of the sprite not already having legs you would merely need to find a sprite that does and then do all the same step but just added to that sprite, spacing may be difficult as I'm not super familiar with vxa but it should work just the same.


Good luck.

First of all, this is the correct part of the forum for asking for something to be made. Second of all, it's not as easy as your edit - the OP was working from an Ace sprite, which is 32 pixels tall, to a Mack sprite which is 48 pixels tall and a fairly different style. You were working from an MV sprite which is already 48 pixels tall.


At any rate, since this was solved, I'm closing it.
