Oab's Workshop Animal People

Description
Overview:

Full replacement of all Animal People related sprite sheets for all biomes, including subterranean types. This does not include Animal People statues.



I am considering this a WIP as I will eventually improve the quality on the older sprites, and there is always the potential to add equipment layers in the future as well.

In addition this also fixes some errors in the vanilla files regarding animal people graphics. There are no duplicated or shared sprites designations; every animal person has its own unique sprite.

Compatibility:

Only works on the Steam version of the game..

This will replace all vanilla animal people image files located in data/vanilla/vanilla_creature_graphics/graphics/images. All mods that replace these will be incompatible.

Installation:

For Existing Saves: (Recommended)

1. Subscribe on steam
2. Load up the game, the files will now appear in Dwarf Fortress>Mods
3. Locate the mod folder in Dwarf Fortress>Mods the folder name is the same as the numbers at the end of the URL on this page. 2928438714
4. Copy the image files provided in the Dwarf Fortress>Mods folder into the Dwarf Fortress/data/vanilla/vanilla_creature_graphics/graphics/images. Replace existing files when prompted. (Backup the files being replaced, Seeing how small the game is I suggest copying the entire DF folder to a new location and using that, Updates may replace my graphics using this method so use this method again if it does)

Official install instructions:

1. Subscribe on steam
2. Load up the game, the files will now appear in Dwarf Fortress>Mods
3. During new world creation select the “Mods” button on the bottom right select this mod on the list and move it to the list on the right using the right arrow.
4. I haven’t tested this approach to confirm it works. If it does not use the instructions above. (Edit: This method seems to be having issues)
5. This will not work on existing saved games.


Possible Issues:

If anything isn’t showing as the correct sprite please let me know so I can correct it.

The steam version allows images to use multiple tiles. Thanks!

If you are using larger than 32x32 files does it not crop the image ingame? can you post some image textures? unable to test rn. Either way, great art!
