whtdragon's animals and running horses- now with more dragons!

whtdragon · 2015-12-23T09:26:35+0900

Christmas comes early this year and I've got one doozy of a present for everyone here. I noticed when looking at the default resources in MV that there was an unusually small amount of animals--a smaller amount then most of the other RPG makers, and that will simply not do. I took a look at every other RPG maker's animals and I decided to remake them all for MV. I then also added some new animals that I felt like should be givens for any typical game. I tried to keep them faithful to the MV style, and there are a few I'm not completely satisfied with, and I will try and fix when I can. Current count of unique animal sprites: 50+ (s-so many!)I was also given a suggestion by Skysurfer about running horses. I was not going to do that at first but then I said "challange excepted" and well now we have running horses. (again trying to keep to the MV style) DISCLAIMER: the running horse animation IS 4 frames, so you will either need a plugin for extra frames or you will need to use some other method of using 4 frames in your animations, but it should be usable. Apologies that I could not bring it down to the default three frames, I really did try! But it just was not working like I wanted it to. Alternatively, they can be used in RPG maker XP. For the sake of information, the frames are 64x57, slightly bigger then the original sprite. Terms: As these are (mostly) edits of MV's sprites, you will need a legal copy of RPG maker MV, otherwise~~ Credit is appreciated, but not required. They are free to use for commercial or non commercial. You are free to edit, change, recolor, re-edit, remix, maim, mangle, add on, divide, and conquer to your heart's content. I don't even mind if you re-upload them elsewhere as it would only mean more people get access to them and that is A-OK in my books Link to all the animals: ALL animals: http://wht.paril.ca/RPG maker MV sprites/uploads/whtdragons_MVanimals_ALL_4-1-2025.zip dragons only: http://wht.paril.ca/RPG maker MV sprites/uploads/whtdragons_MV_dragons and wyverns.rar New Pet Sprites: These are small add ons to the default dog and cat sprites now with new dog breeds and cat breeds as well as various animals with carry bags. Spoiler resting sprites recolored dogs: Bandana Dogs: Pomeranians Corgis: Saint Bernards: Scottish Terrier: Recolored cats with new patterns, stripes and spots Fluffy cat/Maine coon: Sphinx Cats: Extra animal carriers: Horses, Donkeys and Camels Add on saddles for walking AND running horses as well as an official release of my donkey sprites. Now with ponies! Camels now have sitting animations. Spoiler Saddle horses with small side bags Running horses, one without anything, one with my saddle, one with the saddlebags, and one decorated from another post of mine found here under "general festival things" sample of the decorated horse animation: For the sake of completion, Here's an extra bonus sprite of a knight riding a running horse Donkeys black and white horses both walking and running ponies: so many horse recolors they had to have their own spoiler, both walking and running: Spoiler solid color/plain horses: alt recolors of the default: alt horse patterns and types painted horses: Camels, both with one and two humps~! Complete with saddles-now with sitting! and various colors Farm animals Consists of the cow, bull, pig, goat, sheep, giant chickens, and baby chicks Spoiler Cows: Bulls Pigs: goats: sheep: Giant Chickens: These guys where made because I needed a large chicken sprite for the cockatrice sprite, and decided to just roll with these as their own sprites: baby chickens/chicks Wild Animals Contains a large cat, tiger, lion, raccoon, fox, bunnies, bears, bear cubs, pandas, buffalo/bison, wild pig/boar musk ox, wolf/dog, jackals/wild dogs, badger, armadillo, hippos, goose, swimming geese, duck, loons, baby ducks, seagull, ostrich, giraffe, moose, reindeer, yak, mountain goats, beavers, penguins, monkeys, and snow monkeys. Spoiler Large Cats/panthers/cougars: Tigers: Lions: Lioness: Raccoons Foxes bunnies: Bears: bear cubs: larger cubs with pandas! Bison/buffalo boars/wild pigs Musk ox Wolf/large dog; these aren't "wolfy" enough for me, but they could be used for wolves wild dogs/jackals; for those that want wild dogs that are less bulky Badgers: Armadillo: Hippos: against my better judgment I went ahead and made a full character sheet Geese both walking and swimming : Ducks both walking,swimming and flying: Baby ducks: Loons: Seagull: this is for overhead view, no proper seagull sprites yet! sorry! Ostrich: Giraffe: Moose: Reindeer: yak: saddled yak: mountain goats: I wanted wild goats, and the regular farmy ones wheren't cutting it.

hi, for the knight riding a horse, do we have to put a $ or a !? Neither of them seems to give a great result
it is a 4 frame animation which will require a plugin or script. By default, RPG maker MV/MZ uses only 3 frames so it wouldn't work without a plugin. Unfortunately, I can't really recommend a plugin since they can be pretty specific to one's needs, but they are out there!

just making sure, this is what you're referring to, yes?

I don't know if it's still maintained or works with current updates, but assuming it does, it should be fine. I haven't been keeping up with the goings ons with plugins in awhile so I'm not a great person to be asking, but that's the kind of plugin that would be used for the rider, yes, as well as any of the horse sprites since they are all 4 frame animations.

in the event you can't get it working through, or you really really want those defaulted 3 frames, you can edit the sprites down to have just 3 frames- there's been a few people who have done that, I just personally don't think it'd be as smooth or clean of an animation.
