ABS Templates (PA)

[legacyblade]

Hey everyone, it's LB. I've just finished my first drafts of the ABS templates, their based on the sprites found in XAS Hero Edition. I still have more that I need to make, and all of these probably still need some work. But, might as well put them on the web, eh? Hope people can get some use out of them.

Here is a basic character set template. This is the one that came with Character Maker XP, I just made it fit the XAS size.

The following is a "waiting" charset. This is based on the Hero_ANI sprite that comes with XAS Hero Edition.

Now for the more interesting ones. This is the "hit" pose. I based this on Hero_HIT from XAS Hero Edition.

Finally, to the attacking ones. The one just below is the charset for sword attacks. I admit, the sideview looks odd, but when you make a sprite on top of it, it looks much better. This is based on all the mele weapon charsets from XAS Hero Edition.

And now the bow charset. This one is for the creation of bow attacks (As the name implies). It's based on the bow attack charset from XAS Hero Edition. Yes I know parts of it are gone (like the foot is chopped off, but zoom into the bow attack charset from XAS, and you'll see the same thing.

I just made a punch template, credit to Derek (I just recolored it to normal skin) on the front pose.

I also made a few skill templates, it's based on a pose I found in a resource pack, and I'm not sure the author of that pose.


Here's a calm(ish) one

And a more tense one.

And finally, I configured one for my game's man character, it is the above with slightly open eyes.

I hope these can be of some use to people, and more will be added in the future. Happy spriting

I've never used this "XAS" that you speak of but it sounds cool, your work makes we wanna check it out, good job!

 

[legacyblade]

Thanks. You should try XAS, particularly the "Hero Edition". Plus the version 2 of it is out, so check it out in this post.

Me and a couple other guys are the unofficial support team for XAS Hero Edition, so just post any questions you have in that thread, but please read through it to see if someone else has asked it. It's only 4 pages.

Again, thanks for complimenting the resources.

Nice!

You should convert some of these into the standard template for their use in the NeoABS. If not, then I will eventually, and give credit to you, fine sir.

 

[legacyblade]

Thanks everyone, and I'm "fine sir" now, ^_^. I actually made a post in the request thread for the NeoABS sprite thread, but no reply. And these would work in game, since they're laid out like a normal charset. The reason they have to be that big, however, is because the weapon takes up more space. That's why I dislike the ones that use the normal charset size, they look stiff, and unrealistic. If you guys can get the creator of the NeoABS to contact me, I'd be willing to work something out with him graphic wise.

And again, thanks for the compliments.

Looking hot! I like all the templates.

Edit: i got a question.. How do this work if you want the sprite to
hold a weapon like Zidane is holding while attack.
For example instead of a sword but a weapon like this

I know it don't make sense because im not good at explaining sorry.

 

[legacyblade]

You mean make him attack with that sort of double bladed sword? To be honest, that's what I've been working on right now. I'm having trouble, particularly with the front view. When I get it done, Ill post the template.

 

[Dark-Kyo]

Yeah thats it because thats the weapon that my main character will be using.
The one your spriting now lol

 

[adelaidechoc]

Wow! Very useful! It makes the job a lot more easier :D

 

[legacyblade]

@Kyo, me too. The reason I want that template done is I need it for my own main character, XD

@adelaidechoc, Yes it does. I originally just made them for my own use, but I thought some others might get use out of them. Glad you think so too ^_^

 

[Dark-Kyo]

cool! Im sure the character is unique.

 

[legacyblade]

Both graphic-wise and (for the most part) personality wise.

 

[Dark-Kyo]

Lol Yup!

 

[bojjenclon]

I like that XAS, maybe I'll start using it with your templates at hand. Its amazingly non laggish for all thats in it

 

[legacyblade]

I fully suggest using XAS, or at least the BlizzABS. Those are the two greatest ABSes I've seen.

 

[legacyblade]

added more templates ^_^

 

[Dark-Kyo]

Nice template!

 

[Star]

F*ing saved!!!  :thumb:  Great job on making these dood!  That's totally cool, even tho I've already had a character that's punching, I still would of loved to have this at the time.  But I can use the bow one for sure!

 

[legacyblade]

Thanks! I'm really glad people can use these. Always happy to help others with their spriting.
