<p>Crafted initial page</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>A '''sprite''' is a graphic used in games. (This editor tends to think only things that move (characters) or repeat (trees), not large backdrop pictures or the like, but she might be mistaken.)<br /> <br /> While RPGMaker XP allows larger sprites, all previous RPGMaker versions had strict size restrictions:<br /> <br /> *Tile Sprites: 16 x 16 pixels<br /> *Character Sprites: 32 x 24 pixels<br /> *Face Sprites: 48 x 48 pixels<br /> *Battle Sprites: (someone please fill in)<br /> <br /> Sprites for previous RPGMaker versions come in sheets. Character sheets allow 8 characters; face sheets allow 16 faces. Tilesets (aka chipsets) combine five different types of tiles:<br /> <br /> #1 set of water, or other animated object, with two borders and a graduation-to-deep-water bit<br /> #3 animated background tiles<br /> #12 autotiles<br /> #144 background tiles (including 1 blank if desired)<br /> #144 foreground tiles (including 1 blank)<br /> <br /> Prior to XP, the color depth for a given sheet was extremely limited: 256 colors. Working with tiny sprites and a limited color depth requires a lot of fudging, which arguably makes for nicer graphics, a la impressionism. Also kinda fun.<br /> <br /> ''This article is a stub, so please improve it!''</div>
