textures rework

[anfauglir]

Would we be able to change the textures/sprites ingame or everything will be compressed and using inhouse image format.

Not initially, maybe later.

And for the party heads, same thing we can't change them ? Would be nice to have my own ones .

We are considering adding support for custom portraits in a game update.

Thanks for the answer and glad to hear that.

Yes, about character portraits:

in what resolution should someone, who is inclined to do so, paint those?

I saw that initially, you guys used some pretty big resolutions (665x1000 or so).
But that might have been due to an early stage in development.

So, which res. would you recommend?

it's in this previous thread,

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=35

But basically,

Portraits are 128x128 pixels

I'd really enjoy custom portraits.

I'd love to see the devs add portraits of the original characters from FTL's original DM in their updated artistic style for download.

Thanks for the quick reply!

128x128 sure is small, but will make things a lot easier.
