The Carnivorous Plant Uruk Crusher The Weretiger The Air Giant Troll Uruk Soldier The Hell Warden Skeletal Shambler! Undead Dragon Wyvern Dire Wolf Red Dragon Peeker The Apex Hunter The Apex Predator The Apex Stalker Daemon Hound Overview: This new set of graphics is focused around offering resources that allow for greater visual depth and detail than what can usually be found. A great deal of emphasis is placed on modularity to allow for maximum flexibility and creativity, both for the tiles themselves as well as for the characters. The majority of these resource are hand-drawn, with some being rendered from 3D models (the characters primarily, and a handful of the objects). What are these?! 2.5D is a very general term used to describe a 2D perspective that represents a 3D projection or space. This is NOT 3D, it is merely a 2D perspective (in fact, you can't actually recreate this perspective in 3D at all!). In this specific case, the perspective is at a 45 degree rotation. 2.5D graphics are wonderful because they can add much-needed depth and dimension to your game maps. How do you use them? These tiles were designed to be used a lot like Lego building blocks. They are modular in nature and will snap together easily on a 32x32 grid in spite of the fact that they are larger than 32x32 pixels. Due to their basic structure and modularity, this allows you to make an infinite number of structures, rooms, etc. Decals! While these tiles will snap together on 32x32 pixel grid, these resources also include "decals" which are tiles with blended and faded edges. This allows them to be placed almost anywhere and they will fit in. These are fantastic for covering seams, breaking up patterns, or just adding variety! Their uses are virtually endless. Build Your Own Characters In keeping with the concept of modularity, this new generation of character building resources includes TONS of customization of your characters. A variety of base templates can be freely mixed and matched with different outfit pieces such as tops, bottoms, hats, shields, weapons, helmets, hair, facial hair, etc. Each piece of equipment, clothing, hair, etc supports over 70(!!!) animations, all of which are in 8 directional facings. On top of that, there are 24 high-resolution face expressions, 24 high-resolution bust images, and 24 high-resolution paperdoll figures. Each of the 24 showcase different emotions and poses. Speaking of Animations... As of right now there are over 70 animations, each one a…

Some new character pieces all whipped up and ready. Based on a request, here are some witch hunter pieces for the female base (male version to follow later).

Also, if you haven't checked it out, you can grab the Infernus tileset, completely free!

Where can buy this editor? :) All resources would be added manually or it auto gathers them from the server when new stuff comes?

Hi,

I am looking to use the 2.5D graphics with QSprite.

The issue is the sprites come as four separate images.

I've seen them used in videos and such so I am wondering how they went about it.

Edit: I found the answer; they change actor graphic between poses.

And I'd like to share my progress.

Just finished up some new character pieces, for a male Rogue.

@Yossa - It is not currently available, but is being worked on. Even so, it won't be released here. You can PM me if you want more details.

@Amy Pond - I am glad you got it working! It looks great so far! Wonderful work :)

Working on interior cavern tiles; so far they are coming along nicely. This is the second draft of them.

The actual cave walls are beautiful and very modular. Gonna have a lot of fun with these.

I like the brigandine on the rogue, will be very versatile.

I have a question regarding weapons. Would it be okay using weapons from the female template for males? Like using the valkyrie spear for a male character. I've been doing it and think it looks okay but wanted to see what you think.

I haven't come across any issues so far doing that. Same with some select pieces of armour that would realistically look the same worn on either gender. For stuff like dresses and tight fitting leather it's different though.

Curious what's the best way to recolor the cloth parts of armored pieces.

#175 Apr 15, 2020, 07:54 PM Source

@HasdrubalBarca - The pieces weren't really meant to be mixed around like that in terms of swapping male and female parts since they are both build onto different shapes. With that said, it is a gradual process to make the outfits for both genders, something I am playing catch-up on right now. I just now did the female version of the Beastmaster:

@BloodletterQ - If you are just trying to recolor a small portion of the image and not the whole thing, then open it up in GIMP or Photoshop, create a new layer, set that layer to color, then paint over the section of the image you want to change colors.

Haven't added any updates in a bit! Got a bunch of new tiles whipped up (all manners of cavern pieces, rocks, new flora, and more) and new character pieces. Some new software is being whipped up by Martin to handle all the character-making needs, and additional map-making software. He's amazing!

A bunch of new demonic creatures are being wrapped up for release! Some of them are remasters of old monsters of yore, others are new to the stage.

Just finished up some new Orc character pieces! The Orc base can be mixed and matched with the human bases and can use all of the same equipment (and human characters can use this dark-themed armor as well!)

And to go along with the male Orc character pieces... now there is a female version!

Whew - Due to buying a new house, moving, renovating, etc, we were without internet for about two months. In the meantime, I have been working on a slew of new WW2-themed assets. They mix well with the Mythos-era stuff, but a lot of pieces could easily be used in a fantasy or more modern setting as well - brick and wood building ruins are pretty universal that way!
