Japanese site sprites

[ChronosAragami]

I found some interesting sprites on a Japanese website that a forum member gave me, and I decided to post here.

[ChronosAragami]

I think they may provide support to create new sprite or a thing like that.

Hm... The Red mage is fairly nice, maybe too much red. We already have one that I like anyway xD

Yuffie, recognized her almost right off... not enough detail on the sprite for my liking and the portrait looks too adult and less asian-like than you would expect for yuffie.

Minwu is okay, but isn't complete... The portrait kinda looks like they may have just taken it straight from Origins.
It still has a nose, unacceptable!

EDIT: Also, there is some japanese site, I think it was that one, that is notorious for taking our sprites. Their Barret sprite is our sprite except that they made a different horrible portrait for it.

[ChronosAragami]

But if you want you can fix it or just make another sprite based on it.

[Zalge]

You wanna make us hypocrites? We do our own work... well I guess it wouldn't be bad if we credited them, unlike them who do not credit us in the least and say they made it themselves. They're probably going to do that with Seu's works. Reno, Genesis, Squall, all thems is gunna be pirated by the japanese... My portrait! oh noes!

But really, there is a japanese site out there, I don't know which it is, Zozma never provided me a link, that steals our sprites and claims them as their own. We have the evidence that its ours. Besides the fact that its a free source and anyone can use it, but you should at least give credit where credit is due and not pass it off as your own work.

[ChronosAragami]

Yes, you're right! But they steal the sprites of the site to say it is them!?
Now that's bad, but if they steal our sprites is for envy, because they can not develop them, who does not guarantee that it was they who created these sprites?

I think so.
Since we made the Minwu sprite.
Actually, the Minwu sprite is completed.

Check out the Mercenaries forum for info.

Also, our site has a Red mage sprite which is way better than the sprite posted above.

[ChronosAragami]

Then you say that Minwu is from our site?

I don't know, since I didn't made the minwu sprite from our site.
But we finished it here, plus a better looking portrait, so..
I think.. it's ours now.

[ChronosAragami]

Do you think I could use the sprites of them, but not modify it and were already saying that they did and not me?

If you're suggesting putting them on our site under their name, yes, I don't see a problem with that. Give credit where credit is due and you can't go wrong.

[ChronosAragami]

And use them in FFT?

[Zalge]

I don't see why not, thats why we make these sprites, don't we?

[ChronosAragami]

Sorry I wrote wrong ^_^

[Xifanie]

What thief website are you talking about? Got the address?

[mav]

For reference's sake here is Miroshi Beshima's Minwu sprite, and here is Minwu's sprite adapted for Mercenaries (i.e. it includes a custom portrait, seven other palettes, the SPR file, the BMP file, etc).

I'll say that the Red Mage sprite is pretty good, but it kinda looks like Elmdor colored red with a hat...Is it Elmdor with a red hat?! Anyhow, I love seeing custom sprites and portraits, so this was a nice treasure; thanks for the post, Chronos.

[ChronosAragami]

I do not have the site that say stealing the sprites, sorry Zodiac, mav I also really like to see different sprites too ^_^

[RolyTunedIn]

we all already seen these sprites, they're on one of the older topics. Link: http://www.ffhacktics.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=668

It is kind of funny that you guys are rediscovering this stuff. We have known about it for a long while. The thief japanese site and this one are one and the same. There are alot more sprites on that site then what you have right there. I think the main victim is Zozma's Barret sprite, just took him and gave him a horrible AC portrait.

[ChronosAragami]

Yes, I saw that sprite! in the Japanese site.
