Question:

[ETD]

ok, I've known this problem was there, but I guess I kinda ignored it, hoping that a command would be added, to be able to use a custum sprite set...

Well, anyways, on my server (End of Ages), we have our own tileset... but it doesn't work with the classic sprites
:/
so we have 2 choices... either people can download our custum sprites, and then re-name them, and use them.... or we can make every pot, and bush an NPC, and then re-tile some levels, and then take out all our ice tiles (in other words, re-make everything, to go along with the classic one) which may add another 2 months to our development time...


please vote in the poll, and comment... I know this was stupid of us, but if I could go back and do things over again, there would have been a lot of things I would have done differently now that I know better... but what's done is done, so please vote:

Either:

1. Make it so players can download the sprites, and use them
2. re-do everything to make it work with the classic sprites (2+ more months of work)

All you would have to do is remake the ganis -_- and alls you will probably have to do is swap images, should'nt take more then a week or so.

the sprites don't use ganis...

would be nice if putnpc2 worked with updatelevel2, then you could just write a script to warp to everylevel, check your tiles, replace them and put the corresponding npc there

I dunno, I don't like the idea of replacing sprites, for the simple fact that hardly anyone will only play on your server. but, I like the idea of custom sprites, so um yeah, er actually you can write a program to run through the actual level files (since Stefan was so kind to make them text readable) and replace tiles that way, along with adding npcs, that'd quicken things up, but I'm not sure how easy it is to get someone to make a program like that for you

if not, it would take 15 minutes to do so.So it still is'nt a month Addition.

15 mins if we had a staff member who knew how to do this...
which we do not
:/
as I said, with the 1 scripter we have, it would take at least a month or 2
