Question friends. What program/website do you use to make/edit sprites?

What do you all use to 3x your image and canvas? I'm spriting on Procreate (i know i know, but i have a pixel brush and it isn't THAT bad), but resizing is a nightmare, it won't work. Is there perhaps even an online site that some use to resize without messing up the image?

ancient ferry
#

Can you resize by numbers? Set the project from 96×96 to 288×288

fickle tree
#

^ nice, only criticism is that i'd personally like more colored lineart on the left foot rather than black, everything else great

#

That's what I tried haha, on Procreate you have to go to settings, canvas, crop and resize, then settings there and you can "resample canvas." this sizes up the image as well as changing canvas ratio.

#

But when it is resized it is fried into blurry oblivion. The original size of my canvas is 96, and I did try resizing to 288

ancient ferry
#

Interesting

#

You'll have to ask someone who knows how to use procreate

#

well, i dont have to use it to resize if there is a program that I can export the png file to

For the life of me I cannot resize my sprite. Even on one of the sprite guidelines programs, Piskel, it does not work. The canvas is 96x96. I try to change it to 288x288 and it is blurry. It actually says 3.09x in the corner of piskel which, I dont understand how is possible since 96 x 3 is 288 lol

#

That is my sprite

Did you turn off the smoothing when you resize it?

#

Praise be praise be angler!

Glad I could help 👍

ripe summit
#

Pretty sure smooth resize is turned off by default

#

So you must have turned it on

fickle tree
#

It was not :,)

#

It was on by default.

#

Okay now I think I send it to sprite work and hopefully if there is anything wrong/something that can be better people can tell me

ashen schooner
#

So I was just wondering, the base Primeape sprite I used for this fusion is from the pokemon fangame Pokemon Infinity. Is it alright if I post the fusion while crediting where the base sprite originated from?

Ahh okay I see. Yeah will do

#

I'm kinda confused though, since that sprite didn't show up when I looked at the sprite database website

#

Oh yeah it had that sprite listed below with the generations.

#

I should keep that in mind, I didn't think to scroll down to see the rest of the database sprites

Yeah, that top view only shows the sprite from 1 game each

Hey @coral bobcat! Are you trying to add more custom sprites to your game? You can find the most up to date sprite pack containing all custom sprites in #downloads! To add them to your game, simply copy all the files into your game's CustomBattlers folder. The pack also contains alts and things such as joke sprites and regional variants, which you can also add to your game if you wish.

You can swap between alts of a given fusion in-game, using the Pokédex!

You mean make a whole new sprite for a fusion? You don't need anyone's permission to do that

The idea of being a spriter for IF is that you are helping to reach the end goal of every fusion being complete, if you only make 2 then never make any more what’s the point of the role

So I have a question, in the guidelines they suggest that you sprite in 96x96 and then scale it up to 288x288. Are there any people here who sprite directly in 288x288?

light isle
#

I tried to. Its doable albeit annoying. It really is best to work in 96x96 then scale it up to 288x288 with the "nearest neighbour" setting

graceful sandal
#

I don't think that some Spriters sprite directly in 288x288, you make too many mistakes when you do it

atomic veldt
#

But working in 288x288 would result in 'higher' detailed sprites yes?

light isle
#

OOh i see what you mean now. Yes it would but you wont see that detail in game.

#

The pixels are sized that way for it to function properly

atomic veldt
#

So it wouldn't make it difference in the end?

light isle
#

The sprites in game get scaled up and down depending on the battle scene and how big the screen is people play in. You'd lose all detail in a "detailed" 288x288 pic

#

I could be wrong somewhere.. check the guidelines

shut prawn
atomic veldt
shut prawn
#

No need to apologise! 🙂

#

It's possible for sure, the sprites won't be incompatible if you sprite at 288x288. They'll be inconsistent with every other sprite in the game and resize weirdly in comparison as well, so it's a preventative measure more than anything else. 😄

@fierce vale
Had a quick attempt at Togepi/Ralts. I think i need to reduce the size of the eggshell, maybe show a bit more face. Was considering adding in the head blades? one red one blue too but unsure. What do you think. Might also move the arms out forward as if its feeling its way around because... blind x3

@light isle I think showing a bit more face would be a good idea, love the general idea. Maybe make the head blades break through the egg yea but love the concept.

Aye this was a massively rushed attempt xD, I'll have a "crack" ;D ... at putting the blades in through the eggshell

Hey guys, this might get asked a lot but how do I install the sprite pack 1-83 on top of my existing game file?

wide flowerBOT
#

Hey @dusky birch! Are you trying to add more custom sprites to your game? You can find the most up to date sprite pack containing all custom sprites in #downloads! To add them to your game, simply copy all the files into your game's CustomBattlers folder. The pack also contains alts and things such as joke sprites and regional variants, which you can also add to your game if you wish.

You can swap between alts of a given fusion in-game, using the Pokédex!

#

When you unzip it, open it up till you see the Alts folder, Other folder and all the sprites. Ctrl A it to select all, copy and paste into the CustomBattler Folder in the game files

So I'm curious, how exactly does one go about starting this. Cause I've been contemplating making a fusion.

I did read the guidelines, I just have anxiety about this sort of stuff and fear everything always all the time so double checking helps me ease some of that

#

But that sounds like a plan, thank you kindly ;w;

the worst thing that'll happen after putting it in the spritework is that someone will point out issues with it and suggest tweaks

until you have actual spriter role, there is no real expectations, so dont worry too much

Find the fusion in the pokedex and swap the alt, or manually rename the files so the one you want doesn't have a letter

working on a custom character sprite its simple so far but thats how i like it may work on making others but curious if others think it looks good so far or not

It doesn't fit the pixel size of the original sprite, so it will look rather awkward in game

does it have to match pixel size? ive only slightly shrunk it to make it more the shape i wanted @ripe summit

Start your sprites as 96x96. They need to then be upscaled to 288x288 (using nearest neighbour setting) as that's what the game works with.

Half-pixels are wrongly-sized pixels, usually created when working with sprites that are resized to a 3x scale.

Since all sprites used in IF are sized up from 96x96, every pixel is technically a block of 3x3 pixels. If you now work in 288x288 or any other size that isn't 96, it is possible to create pixels that are not 3x3 blocks. Having these in a sprite will make them look extremely janky and distorted. Those are half pixels. Avoid these at all costs.

If you resize the body part of a Pokémon to make it fit the base, even if working at 96x96, you will get double-sized pixels or larger. Those also count as half-pixels and should be avoided by polishing/redrawing the lines.

Resizing to a scale that isn't a multiple of the original image's size will also result in half-pixel, e.g., if you start with a 80x80 canvas and resize to 288x288. This can be avoided by making sure you're on a 96x96 canvas, or failing that, always resizing to a number that's exactly 3x your canvas size.
