What do you think about me trying to put together more avatar sprites? For instance steampunk-related characters. Im a pretty good organizer and could see what i could do...

You are certainly welcome to do that!

What information do you need to get started?

Yep, what you need is in the lib/mods/net.lugdunon.world.clover.sprite.jar

Everything is organized into packages / directories, just like the music files are.

The framesets are defined in the Definition.json files for each of the sprite types (net.lugdunon.world.clover.sprite.human.female for instance) with the actual base sprite image being the base.png, and associated layers can be found in the equipment/* and hair/* packages.

I found a great artist to work on this for us. They will make some steampunk outfits for the human male and female sprites, and maybe some complete sprites for zombies or whatnot. What else should we get? I asked him to introduce himself so maybe he will say hi :D

Awesome!

This kind of think would be great for putting together a writeup on providing additional content via mods.

Hi, Cokbun wants to know if he can make the arms and legs not be so spread apart, but i told him i wasnt sure if that would mess up the placement of things like clothes, shirts, weapons in hands etc. what should i tell him?
