This will be the Shaded Legends Gani hiring thread.
For now:
It is finally time that Shaded Legends hired a good Gani artist. However, this is not an easy position to obtain, unless you are only in temporarily then that is fine too. I have a small job in position for the person applying.
Please, do not waste my time if you only know how to make a Gani in a single direction, or do not know how to add images. You should also know how to use attributes for images.
What will need to be done.
Walk
Idle (One or Two Depending if the player can equip and unequip)
Swords
Attack1 (Left to middle left hand)
Attack2 (Right to middle right hand)
Attack3 (Middle stab left hand)
Attack4 (Middle stab right hand)
Possibly 5 and 6 if they go from left to right if they only have one...
Broadsword
Attack1 (Broadswords left to right hit one hand)
Attack2 (Broadswords right to left hit one hand)
Attack3 (Broadswords also Katanas stabbing)
Katana
Attack 1 (Finished)
Attack 2 (Could be broadswords stab)
I've already created ganis for the broadsword positioning attack 1 and 2.
(However, it is via text, so a gani editor won't allow you to see them.
They would have to be assigned to an attribute or just the .png file.)
Katana is already basically finished. It is basically making one handed weapons and repositioning them for the other hand. Or doing like I did for the weapon and swapping the sprite numbers and positions of the four directions.
Video for a better description:
First, I'd like to see your own complicated gani work. And if it is good, I'll notify Cujo in hiring you. If you haven't come up with any ganis at the end of a week or two being hired, be advised you most likely will be fired.
The Ganis are needed, and will be used.
If you'd like to continue being our gani artist, you would probably find yourself doing weapons and riding things like our cow gani and things such as the ladder gani that I've created. M!ke created the cow riding, and getting on and off gani. However, he went MIA.
Examples of the Cow:
Examples of Ladder:
ZeroG wanted me to show the rest of the ladder. o.O
Applications will be checked and graded in two weeks time. [email protected]
I am unsure what you mean Elk, they are done by templates, and they are both unique, due to myself making them. I've posted an image of one that I am using.. They use left and right sides, however I've seen someone do a format that I feel is better...
Most circle type formats are a waste of space, however I've seen one where the sides go insides and the diagonals go on the corners... This could be more efficient..

I can't say Zodiacs systems are as in depth as to what we need, which is double a 'not an option' statement.
Note:
Broadsword created by Jester Lapse for use on Shaded Legends.
The extra 'padding' is in case there is a bigger sword, or for more looks.
Elk:
I'm not sure if this is what you meant, but basically each sword can the same template, however the weapon system I've created depends on class and height in pixels.
Weapons would depend on ganis which use the same template in different ways.
Of course we only are using 45 degrees... which it would be nice to change in the future.. before we have too many weapons. I don't know how to get photoshop to not be blurry or I'd do it myself. Due to using a Mac I can't use imagerot.exe.
I know you are also an artist, do you have any suggestions on the image rotation thing?
