ZOMG iron giant

[SentinalBlade]

BTW

I think there should be some research done on DAMI.SPR

It appears Arch managed to get the static image to appear on a bugged out sprite.

I was trying ot explain earlier that the DAMI.SPR(the sprite file this new iron giant was found in) is basically a 'placeholder' for various sprite issues.

The image at the top happens when setting the wrong sprite, such as using 5D with a stand alone job, as zozma said.

But the static right before the iron giant images start is what displays when a unit bugs out when theres more than 9. Arch just tried it on zirekale falls and agrias bugged out using the static.


The difference between DAMI.SPR and sprite posted is the pallete. thats not the original pallete. it is much more...messed up, and i think its over the 16 color limit. it shows the static, but in color.

i meant ot prove this a few months ago, but for some reason i couldnt get the static to re appear so i could prove it...

thanks Arch, for being able to testify!

[Zozma]

dami might have its own sound file as well, kind of like how altima's attacks or worker 8.

[SentinalBlade]

yeap yep. i think i should shove this down melons throat.

maybe if we can replace it with a regular sprite file, we could use it as a 10th sprite in some maps?

[Cheetah]

That is a very interesting idea Sentinal Blade.

So it has been 5 years, and I decided to try to add in his great cleaver:

I plan on either having the unarmed hit be the default, and the great cleaver be secondary (skill usage?) -- or making a slightly different cleave one for an area atack (like the minotaur)

note: This is a WIP -- I'm not done, yet.

[Kagebunji]

Hah, that's cool. I was eager to clean up the Iron Giant once, since he is quite messy beneath his armor. But it was such a pixel soup that I decided not to, Twinees agreed .

It's fun to see the cleaver though, kinda a trademark of his.

[Luiakyn]

He -is- a pixel mess I've been cleaning him up a bit:

[Kagebunji]

That's awesome. New Cleaver frames look neat. I always liked this sprite, and you wouldn't believe how happy I am to see it gets some justice

[3lric]

If this is cleaned up enough I know were we can use it in Jot5

I had been wantingto fix him up for a while. I've been modding "Terraria" (I created "Omnir's Modpack") and I feel like I can tackle this, now.

Also trying for an Ogre sprite.

If this is cleaned up enough I know were we can use it in Jot5

I need to test it some, and maybe add in some, but hes otherwise good

I'll be cleaning him up as I notice issues

When I saw you had replied, I was thinking "oh crap, -- I'm sure  he has some criticism" XD
I'm glad you're liking the progress >: D

Small update: So the new sword thrust downward animations had to be rearranged, and the best animation sort is the Lucavi (Ruka) -- The Sword thrust is for charging up.

I'm feeling something is off with the sword animation, so I'm working on that, too.

Lastly, and off topic, here is the currently terrible concept sprite for the Ogre(FFI+) I want to work on:

Very nice to see someone doing something with the Iron Giant.

If you continue with this one, can you do a palette to match this?

[Choto]

<3 those ogres. I tried making a concept for one awhile ago, yours looks much better than mine though. 3 cheers for big monsters =)

[Jumza]

3 cheers for big monsters =)

This is some seriously awesome stuff

XD Yes. I created the Ogre for my mod for Terraria -- So I have something for a palette to start with.*

Do you have a link? I might be able to see what you did better than me and fix some issues.

This is some seriously awesome stuff

Also did the concept for the Hill Giant(Gigas)

Also small update on the Iron Giant. I've got to fix his attack

[3lric]

Dem Ogres.... fucking awesome

Damn teasers

[Seushiro]

Very nice concepts and hope you figure out what you want with the attack frames that seems hard. I thought for the pose with the sword stabbed to the groud that the cleaver be facing up as opposed to down as the attack animations like slashing, punching and dragoon jump all come from above going below. The giant would get his hands cut off if that was a defend pose But that is just my opinion

[Celdia]

Dem Ogres.... fucking awesome

Eloquently said and I agree wholeheartedly.

[Lijj]

Hell yeah the pink ogre... can you make one of the palettes of the green sort as well?

A little off topic but;
for some reason the pose of the original Final Fantasy's troll enemy has always stuck with me (makes me laugh):

"I'm going mad because you tiny little sprites keep irritating me!" it seems to say.
