Hey everyone, here's my skinny.

I want to make use of the Toadsworth sprite to act as Toad NPCs in my hack. Only problem is I can only have one color of Toad, which lead me into wondering, since sprite editing is still very much a work in progress.

Would it be easy to copy the Toadsworth sprite (model, behavior, etc.) and and replace one of the blank unused sprites so I can retexture it and have an assortment of different colored Toads standing around in my hack? If so, where do I start?

That would require massive investigathon in how the game reads the spritedata tho. A while ago I tried something simillar, but it faild because of my lack of ASM knowledge (so the IDA database was a huge maze for me ). _________________________ GitHub - Kuribo64 - YouTube

I guess I'll start by seeing how I can go about adding extra textures to kinoji.nsbmd.
