Character template for You, love Eric

[MrColossal]

Hello,

I made these the other day for the AGS community

It's a template of a character that you can paint over or get inspiration from for walk cycles















He has no hands really, just tentacles. I suggest addings hands if you use it.

I'm especially happy with the down walk cycle. I'd give out my photoshop files but they're a mess and not in any way organized that another human besides myself could understand them.

Also, as it appears in a post Zor made, some people might not know how to use a sprite sheet. What you do is when you want to import this into AGS you choose this image and then make a selection that takes up the first image inside the green boarders for frame 1. Then do it again but for frame 2. This way you don't have a folder full of "Walkup1.bmp Walkup2.bmp etc..."

I'm not too happy with the walking up animation so if anyone feels they can edit it to make it [or any of them] better then feel free.

Either way, enjoy!

Eric

awesome! good job eric

Great stuff, especially the down walkcycle, I can see why you're happy with it.  The side, and the character itself, are very nice as well.  Something does seem off with the legs on the up walkcycle, can't really tell at the moment because of the speed.

I'm sure everyone will really appreciate these.  Nice work.

Excellent job eric, I bet people (including me) will have lots of use for it.

[Chicky]

brilliant, although down does look a little like he hopping. would do an edit, but its just to damn good

[Moox]

Yay, no floppy hands!

[Mr_Frisby]

Great work - although you do realize you have just created and upsugence of AGS games about nude, greyskinned unichs.
(which is good, it's about time there were games about me)

Dammit Eric. You always have to make everything so easy. Now I have to start tracing your art all over again! Why dont you think about yourself for once!

...

Aww, I wuz juz joking Ehwick. I wuv you!

[Phemar]

Yes, don't we all love Eric...

Great Art as always...The animations themselves are smooth, and that's the way I like it.

The up animation is smooth, but weird. All I see is a bunch of pixels being thrown all over the place.

About the sprite sheet thing...I never realised this because all my games were done in 256 color. Only hi-color games have then option to import from clip-board.

Buy yeah, brilliant work!

Awesome!Ã,  Thank you very much.

These will come in awefully handy so I can fix up my walkcycles some.

But never the less, awesome work.Ã,  Thank you.

zor: What? This has nothing to do with bit depth or anything


Choose the sprite sheet [after resaving as a bmp or pcx]


Zoom in if you want and select everything inside the green boxes


click the mouse button and you've snagged the image, repeat from the top until you have them all.

Wow, brilliant job, Eric! I really like these.

[Nacho]

Thanks! Nice resource, I was missing good north and south animations.

* Farlander thumbs up!

[Phemar]

Oh...dang. If I had known this before it would have made my life all the easier...

Well...Thanks, hehe (I'm such a dumbass, I never figuered out I had to right click...)

Whooo! FIRST USAGE IS MINE!

[DeathWing]

Hey Ensalada, wouldn't you be able to see that guys long coat between the legs?  Otherwise great use of that template.

[Dart]

Second usage is mine.



I know my paintover has errors in it, but I'll get rid of those as soon as possible.

Thank you, Eric.

[MrColossal]

No worries, I hope it gets used and no one steals credit for it

[Andail]

Nice template.
The down-animation makes him a bit bow-legged, or like he's taking really long strides. That's basically my only c&c.
They are over all perfectly smooth and nice.

[sedriss]

Awesome. Awesome to the max!
