what do you mean by the sprites are encrypted? can't you use something to edit the sprites like you can with GB and GBC games? GBA sprite edits are a thing so maybe following those leads can bring some fruit.

 

Let me rephrase it. There is a way to edit the GBC Shantae game because the sprite tile editors work on that game. Of the four sprite editors that I tried with the GBA Shantae game none of them picked up any graphics, only RGB static. I read on a few threads that if the tile editors don't find any tiles, it's because the game was encrypted with in-house encryption software used to package the game for distribution. Some modders develop specific tile editors to work with specific games in order to do graphics hacks, which is what we would need to mod this particular GBA game, unless someone finds a tile editor that does pick up this game's graphics.

It looks good for pixel art and that's all that matters. No one who plays these retro-style games are going to expect the sprites to be well detailed.

The sprite may not look good when scaled up alone but when playing the game, it'll look natural when you can see the pixelated world around her.

 

This is only an edited screenshot, a mockup, not an actual mod

 

Like I mentioned in the other thread, the Deluxe DLC provides skimpy costumes that would make for a good base to start on.

It's also been deduced that the Unity version is only using the engine as an emulation layer so you'll still have to hack the ROM to have nude sprites.

Though we could still edit the high-res art from the Unity version to be nudified.

Yeah but I suppose the GBA rom dont have a complexe system of sprite since its not as powerful as the last episode 

At least I Hope

Hope the sprite can be easily edited

[Obligitury]

well someone named thekitboi on steam made some spanky joe animations, so whenever the game gets cracked and sprite mods are able to be done, we will have an easy head start with the outfits at the very least.

I'm not gonna sugar coat it. These sprites are so small it might not end up looking very good. You're going to be getting sprites that look like this.

 

I even added a second one a little later that goes off-refence just so it looks better (it's a between frame but still)

 

it will look far better than the previous episode

I decided to use RuntimeUnityEditor on a whim to see what I could find. I'm not sure if this helps, all I can tell is that game assets - baring HD portraits, HD HUD, HD UI, and HD menus - aren't exactly part of the game. I think it's being emulated through the GameScreen. If anyone has any idea on what I should check, I'll be happy to help.

Wait so you need to edit the sprite of the GBA rom for pc version, the hd UI is on another layer 

If I correctly understand, isn't it ?

so, then are like, all of the alt outfit sprites in the rom too? those should be on another layer, right? or is it kind of a special rom?

thinking about it, if the rom/gba version was all the backers got, i can't imagine they're too pleased that there's more content in the non GBA versions they didn't get.

I think they're just happy to have it physically.

would this mean that said HD portraits would be more accessible for nude editing?

Yeah, they are.

since the sprites sounds hard to do, i guess the best solution for a porn mod would be to start with those

So what's the progress on the game so far?

If I understand, the base game is the GBA rom and the PC version just add a layout in front of the scene 

they search a pixel artist

I've been editing the rom, but got distracted by other stuff. I just prefer working with polygons over pixels. But if you guys really want it, I'll put more focus on it.

[x hunter]

[x hunter]

Me ? I dont know but maybe @Manguers@Rosefan64@ClosetOfDoomor @msriowill be able to give you some tips to implement your sprite into the game 

 

PS: sorry for the disturb to all we search for someone who can help in the sprite substitution process 

[BadAnG3LB0Y]

I'm afraid I'm only an artist and editor, and know practically nothing about modding games that aren't that open-source.
