Quick trivia, Final Fantasy Legend (1989) has chainsaws, and Soul Calibur's Talim uses bladed tonfas.
And the Saw is literally the BEST WEAPON in SaGa 1/FFL because it bypasses Death immunity~ <3
Been slaving away at the database because I seem not to want to move on till I've got EVERYTHING done in it and then I can just not worry about it while I'm mapping/storying. I've got four more characters to do stats for, as well as finishing up the stats for armor/helmets. After that, it's doing a full set of monsters, then adjusting them 11 times for all the sets I need for that, then skills... Too bad I'm going home this weekend or else I'd work on it there. =P
Oh, and cleaning up the intro. Because it's still too messy for my tastes. ><

Trying to "blaze" through Xenosaga 1 as best I can. I'm in the second half of the game at about 20 hours at least... Though I'm hoping to trivialize as much of the combat as I can when I can, which will probably be right before the final dungeon...

Yeah, I did have to index it.
At first I thought it was TOO complex, but then I went and put one of the sprites in RGB mode, then indexed it with exact colors (as opposed to 256, which RM2k* needs) and... the enemy sprite has 56 colors; the party sprite has 55 colors. So... I guess my eyes are just silly.
Thank you, though. I'll definitely take a close look at the shading to see if I can apply it to other sprites. ^^

Band...ing? o.o
Dammit Jim, I'm a writer, not a spriter. ^^;
I'll PM you a link from my locker.
Also, I assume you mean FSM sprites. I'll look through my folder, see if I have something with a decent amount of purple and stick it in my locker.

This is what I've done so far with it. Like I said, as nice as they are, it's easier to increase detail on 200 sprites as opposed to decreasing detail on 1800. Pretty sure the only other thing I'd have to do is... change the shading? Gotta figure out where the extra shading would go, though.
The glaring flaw I noticed actually WAS the eye = black line thing. First thing I did after posting was go into iDraw and fix that.

Grinding is the lazy way to overcome 'em.
Devising a strategy to avoid getting hit is the better way though.
I dunno. Maybe Oath is different, but like Ys 1 for example... The bat boss was basically impossible if you didn't have a high enough level because it was a) difficult to dodge in general and b) you could barely damage it without a decent level.
But again, like I said, maybe Oath is different. I've heard Oath and Seven are vastly different in battle mechanics from Ys 1-3, so...

There's more colours on the other sprites, and the enemy graphic has a black outline rather than a coloured one.
I definitely see the outline thing you're talking about... That's easily remedied at least. It'll be easier to just modify the monster sprites so they have colored, rather than black, outlines, because if I did the characters, then every single thing, from the charasets to the bcharas would have to be changed. And I'm only willing to fix one thing, if you know what I mean. Either way will bring the two more in-sync.
Still can't see there being more colors on the party, though, other than the fact that their outfits are more interesting and have more parts to them...

author=calunioHow so? Perhaps my eyes aren't exactly trained for that, but the only thing I could possibly think is different is that the enemy sprites MIGHT be flatter in color, but looking between the two, I can't tell any difference in color depth. :x
I really really really like the style of the enemy sprite. It's such a shame the character sprites don't follow that and crash terribly.

Very nice, trance. Seems like it'd be an epic battle.
Considering it's an end-of-chapter fight, I would hope so. :P

Yes, I know I just posted this on my game page, if only because it's an update to an image I've already got there to better reflect what the ACTUAL game is like, rather than, you know... what there was four years ago. :P
... and as if on cue, right as I look at it for more than five minutes, I realize one GLARING flaw. Which has been rectified. (see if you can guess what I'm thinking of)
