Sprites

Where's Waldo?

I'll eventually need (someone) to make original sprites. For now though I will use the originals. This way I can get a headstart on programming the enemies. I think that if I get a nice playable demo to show to people it will be a lot easier to find interested artists.

You can find most of the Doom sprites online. Unfortunately they usually suck. They'll have no transparancy or the positioning information will be missing.

So I had to man up and find out how to rip them out of the wad file. Luckily this isn't exactly treading new ground and the Doom wiki was again able to help me out nicely.

I've now got a whole list of sprites complete with the pixel offsets for properly aligning them. Next step is to compile those into fancy spreadsheets. We've got a nice tool for that at work, maybe I'll steal it ;)

Wanted: artist to draw +/- 1000 sprites for Doom clone :(
