can i request player sprites ?

wide flowerBOT
#

Hey @oak hedge! Do you want to request a sprite? You can do so in #sprite-requests with the following command (don't include the [ ]; write "none" if you don't have anything specific in mind):

request [head/body, or other title] from: [requested user] [additional notes]
For example:
request Bellsprout/Stunfisk alt from: @Kiwi#4199 Make it super derpy
request Ditto/Muk from: none
Please read the pinned message in #sprite-requests before requesting anything!

@swift junco , you need to take down your Mantine/Treeckos. They have the wrong file names. You need to use the Pokemon IF dex numbers.

#

Dex Mantine/Treecko

Mantine/Treecko's IF Pokédex number is 116146! Its sprite would be named 226.276.png!

how does gifs work in the custom sprites?

wide flowerBOT
#

Hey @steel pecan! 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!

any tips on scratching without using reference sprites?

#

I see a lot of fantastic work here that doesn't see like it's from in-game sprites

swift pebble
#

honestly what im doing rn is drawing it outside of pixel stuff? but im more used to drawing with regular digital tools, im doing that for my next sprite

#

i think its more of a good understanding of the way pokemon move and are shaped, but i focus a lot on shapes...

wheat isle
#

question
if there already is a custom for the sprite I am making, say nnn.nnm.png
if I name my sprite nnn.nnm.png I will trigger a vote
if I name my sprite nnn.nnma.png I will not trigger a vote
correct? (posted this question in spriter-general earlier but it probably is more suited for this channel)

vivid crystal
swift pebble
#

haha, yeah- though some folks here are really experienced w concepts, posing, AND spriting which is a lot of skills that take a while- though i think even breaking down a pokemon into its most basic shapes can help with posing- think like those "how to draw x" books and how they usually insist on drawing shapes first

Thank for the tips

Hi, I've made my own sprite for two of my favourite Pokemon, Starmie and Ponyta, but when I try to put it in the game, it's appearing as tiny in game. I'd say it's about 1/4th the size of a normal sprite. Does anyone know the solution? Is it something simple and I'm missing something?

wheat isle
#

ingame sprites are 288x288, you are probably editing a 96x96 canvas

marsh chasm
#

It is 288x288 in size as well

Maybe i put the wrong file in.

Okay, so now that I made and posted 5 sprites (Rotom/Doduo, Rotom/Dodrio, Spinarak/Ferroseed, Ariados/Ferroseed, & Ariados/Ferrothorn), do I apply for the spriter role so I can get them into the game?

#

To apply for the spriter role, you need to make 3 Pokémon fusion sprites and apply for the role in #1073793514229485638

You need the spriter role to post your fusions in sprite-gallery and for some contests.

This isn't really a question, but I did want to say this; since joining this server, it has been very interesting seeing all the potential new custom sprites going into this game.

how do you make custom sprites

wide flowerBOT
#

Hey @warm crater! 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!

how long does it usually take to make a fusion sprite?

entirely dependent on a plethora of things

15 mins to 6 hours

soft adder
#

My longest took me a week to really polish

#

But that was mostly thinking

jaunty vessel
#

For a relatively basic head swap and recolor, maybe a few hours for me (as a newbie to pixel art). For more ambitious sprites, several times that. Even for a basic one I work on it over multiple days, often sleeping on it helps to see things that need fixing.

worldly crater
#

yeah. many many answers to that question, the only person that can properly answer it is yourself

warm crater
#

yikes is there any pixel art tools to help?

soft adder
#

Yeah, most of it breaks down to how much free-hand you want to do

#

How much is just taking assets and pasting them versus drawing them yourself, how complex the prite is, etc

soft adder
warm crater
#

like im looking to mix in features of pokemon

#

Well, if they're facing the same way, you can use a selection tool and copy/paste if you're using Photoshop or maybe Gimp (I forget what tools Gimp has)

you just make fusions in any art software

Piskel: Beginner-friendly, easy to use, doesn't require a download. To resize cleanly, either export at a 3.0x scale using the slider, or click resize and set the width/height to 288x288 with "Resize canvas content" toggled. Link: piskelapp.com

Paint.Net: Intuitive and free, requires a download. To resize cleanly, go to Image > Resize, and turn Resampling to "Nearest Neighbour". Link: getpaint.net

MS Paint: Very simple to use, already installed on most PCs, doesn't support transparency so will need a second program to remove the background. Doesn't have layers. To resize cleanly, click the small option with two squares near the Select tool and resize via percentage to 300%. To downsize cleanly, use the pixels option.

GIMP: Free Photoshop alt, requires a download. Not very beginner-friendly, but useful once learned. To resize cleanly, go to Image > Scale Image, and turn Interpolation to "None" Link: gimp.org

Aseprite: Costs money and requires a download. Has certain advantages, but there is probably no need to pay for this when you are just starting out. Link: aseprite.org

PixelStudio: Fully featured mobile app, useful if you want to sprite from your phone.

Graphics gale is a great program, its pretty beginner friendly and I still use it for the text tool

worldly crater
#

graphicsgale breaks the bot every time i see someone use it

#

and it also exports images with this weird faux transparency where it has white backgrounds on some devices and transparent on others

tacit sparrow
#

It shouldn't do

#

If people need to move it around they should use the portable version so their settings remain the same all the time across devices

Yo quick question when posting a new version of a sprite do I just make a new thread in the spritework channel or post it in the same one?

tacit sparrow
#

Same thread usually

#

People do want to change the entry image sometimes but you can change that at any point

#

If you just post an image as the first post you can delete the embed and replace it with an image link from a post later in the thread

celest wigeon
#

Cool thanks!

You can also close the existing thread and make a new one

  2. should I do anything to change the bottom of torterra's body?
  3. should I do anything to torterra's tail
    cause other than potentially having places to improve on those 3 bits, I'm extremely proud of and happy with it

Which base is best for working on umbreon? Emerald (1), DP (2), Pt (3), HGSS (4)

i think it depends on what you're going for, but they have to use the colors of the gen 5 sprite

I like HGSS the most

its the friendliest looking

#

DP has the most aggressive stance though

#

if you want it to be alert and reacting to something'

abstract briar
#

@swift junco Do you happen to have a Mantine/Sceptile in the works based on the surfing thing you have going for Mantine/Grovyle? Because that'd be really cool (I know that Mantine/Sceptile already has a custom sprite going off of the calculator, but a surfing motif would definitely be neat regardless).

swift junco
#

ill still make a surfing alt

manic frigate
abstract briar
#

I checked to make sure, but I'd still like to see the surfing motif go all the way.

swift junco
#

i probably should have checked if someone did it before i started making the line

abstract briar
#

... Disregard the reactions; this is just me showing a custom sprite that's already from the calculator.

wide flowerBOT
#

Hey @abstract briar! 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!

abstract briar
#

... Bot, not now.

loud tundra
abstract briar
#

In any case, I definitely would like for the surfing motif for Mantine/Sceptile to be the main custom.

swift junco
#

i dont think its possible to replace an already in game sprite, but ill just upload the surfing varients as alts that you can switch to in the pokedex

celest wigeon
#

Hey so when it comes to posting new custom sprites into the sprite gallery instead of the spritework channel, do I just slap my stuff in there on my own and change the status for my entry or do I have to wait for approval from someone?

wide flowerBOT
#

Hey @celest wigeon! Sprite packs come out at the beginning of each month! There is no exact date, sometimes it can take up to a week for a all the sprites to be sorted and propped for release. Please go harrass Kiwi if she takes longer than that. :)

ivory haven

abstract briar
#

... About that, that actually leads to a question of mine: I'm currently using the version that doesn't have the custom sprites preloaded, but instead have them loaded during the game via internet. Is it even possible to switch between sprites in that case? I'm assume not since I don't think a certain Aegislash/Machamp custom sprite is in the folder and I got a different one than I was expecting.

oh, the way you phrased it, i thoguht you were asking which area to post in

@warm crater also to add certain things like horns and stuff there are a couple options. You can pull the entire original sprite and erase all the stuff you dont want to keep, you can pull from something in #assets-gallery or you can just redraw it yourself. when working with specific parts (like those Meganium antennae for example) i like to put them on a separate layer so i can move them around before committing to a design

Is there a way too see which fusions don't have any custom sprites yet? I'm guessing not because everything is happening all the time but asking anyway.

Actually, if my Gardevoir/Shuppet gets into the game, it'll fully complete the Ralts/Shuppet line since both Ralts/Banette and Kirlia/Banette also have custom sprites. Gardevoir/Shuppet was literally the only fusion of that half of the line to not have a custom sprite.
