Hey, me and my friend are currently enjoying making an mmorpg. We of course realize we are in over our heads, but we enjoy it Im a bit of an artist myself and am looking into getting a graphics tablet to draw some sprites. My question is, how does the game lineage 1 make their characters? is it simply a guy drawing them 30 different times in a much larger form, and then shrinking them for the game? or is it much different then that? I just wanna make quality sprites, and need to know how to go about doing that. Thanks!
I took at look at some screenshots from Lineage 1, and I bet you that's exactly what they're doing. Someone does some really nice pixel art, blows it up to do the details, and makes a sprite sheet of the character (with different images for every direction and action), then it's put into the game through the programmer.
Yea thats what i thought.. my friend was saying maybe its 3d re-rendered? He says they make it in a 3d modeling program, then take a screen shot of the model in every which direction, and do it like that.
How lineage 1 sprites are madE?
