Voliol: the former
mko: oops, will look into that!

Not sure is it going to be possible to fit it into such small pixel art, but it would be great to try! This is kind of an extreme detail, unlikely to be noticed by most. But DF is all about such details, right?

[Meph]

voliol: We haven't worked that out yet. It could just be in the same file, but with multiple 32x32 tiles assigned to the creature, like the 96x96 workshops are done atm.

Has Toady provided you with a WIP build of the graphics version yet or are you still working in the dark?

[Putnam]

I'm not even sure work's gone far enough on the graphics version to have anything workable...

[Mike Mayday]

I'm not sure I'm authorised to comment on that

I think there's ~0 work on graphics until Villians updates are finished.

[Inarius]

Which would be perfectly normal, considering that working on a new thing while you haven't finished your current work is not a good practice in general

[PatrikLundell]

I think there's ~0 work on graphics until Villians updates are finished.

My understanding was that Villains IS finished for now with 0.47.04, and that gears would be switched to graphics until the artists have enough to move forward. We'll probably know soon enough, though, as it's about time for a development update.

Might wanna check the devlog there.

Last thing he said about graphic work is that it would start in a few weeks. There's lots of devlog content. Which part do you want me to check?

[Meph]

Coding on graphics back-end has started

Well, Meph already confirmed, but the last post on the devlog said Villains was finished for now and work on Steam was to start. Now we're waiting for the first update on that (which is late, but he said this month would start slowly too because he has things to do which aren't GDC - whatever those might be).

Villains is over until after Steam. Even says so on the development page now.

No, he said "this will be the final bug-fix release before we get the code work started on the graphical version." This directly contradicts your "~0 work on graphics until Villians updates are finished." statement, or rather, agrees with it completely but misses the fact that the Villains updates are finished.

[Bumber]

[...] the Villains updates are finished.

They're set to resume after the Steam version. There's a number of things Toady didn't manage to complete.

Yes. We all know this. Finished for now. No more work right now. Steam has started. It's not waiting for more Villains work.
