GRAPHICS: Sprites rotations of objects and creatures from 5 to 8! #3638

Going for it! :-) Given the amazing things that have been done so far. Things I didn't think possible in DKFX, I am asking if it is possible to increase the rotations from the current 5 to 8. To recover the old creatures and items would just need a Batch to copy R6 --> R8 with mirroring of existing ones.

It's not feasible at the moment without a complete rewrite, especially given the current limitations with custom sprites. Adding new rotations for every standard creature would be extremely tedious, and you'd also need to create custom sprites for all of them, which isn't something I see happening anytime soon.

Ok

I guess, support for R6 to R8 could be added to the JSON for custom sprites and if it's not present, the mirroring function can handle it instead. 🤔

Wow! A Dream!!! So you think it is possible?
