The gold mage now with the female graphics also

for the shadow problem, we are just talking about a simple recoloring of only the shadows right?

This is pretty late but in the portrait and the sprite the horns are to small and look to me like a young goats horns when i think they should look more like they did originaly. Also both dragon sprites could be used (if remade in the pixel art style) in mainline as different dragons, Eternals a rou...

I will work on it, it shouldn't be too hard, what units are already done?

The shadow side of an object is generally always illuminated by a secondary light source. I know it sounds unintuitive, but it's true. If it wasn't, it'd be jet black. If you can see it, there's some light illuminating it. I get it, I'v notice that effect before. Is there a specific thread for tuni...

i thought it looked a bit odd for gold but either way it's still pretty good.

I'm not sure if i got this right though are the shadows or shading on sprites in need of tuning up?

is it only me or does the gold armor have blue in the dark shadows?


The first is my fixed up one the second is the "old" one.

Because both main factions Rebels and Loyalists have mages so it is still balanced between those factions. Also mages are meant to be powerful and take a while to level up.

works pretty well for static units. animations are still tough though.

All the links to the plugins for making terrain with gimp seem to be broken. how do i go about getting the plugins? do they still exist?

The attack of the elder mage can easily be changed.

Collapsing is much harder than erasing parts of the sprite. So I won't suppose SomeOneNamedMe is able to do such a difficult animation. For example, I can do recolours, but I'm not able to work on difficult animations. Exactly right. If I tried to make a physical death animation it would come out h...

Here is my try at a death animation.
What happens is when the mage disappears since his clothing is infused with magic it starts to disintegrate into nothing.

It's better than no animation... Kind of

Comments?

there is already a mage after the great mage. You just have to tweak one thing in the games files, the elder mage is an existing unit but was only used for Delfador so you could use that instead of making a new unit. Besides, the lightning attack is pretty cool.

the teleport looks like the silver mages teleport with a slightly yellow tint.

I will try to make a death animation.
