Terraria Fat NPC Resource Pack

Yeah. Current plans are to include support for every female NPC (minus the Princess, obviously) and a couple male NPCs. After I get that out of the way, if I still feel like doing more things I’ll branch out into other things. At the moment I’m taking a bit of a break but I’ll come back to this eventually.

What does monumental do exactly? I tried putting it in the townnpcs folder and it changed the nurse back to normal.

Monumental isn’t quite ready yet, but when I get around to it it’s gonna be an extra weight level above massive. Would seem as if I wasn’t quite thorough with cleaning up the pack of WIPs and for that I apologize.

No need to apologize. I’d also have to wonder, would monumental work? With the spritesheet limitations in place, I don’t see how they could get much bigger.

That’s a valid concern I had at the time, but I decided to give it a try anyway and the sheets ended up being a little more spacious than I remembered. With the base sprites I have there’s only about 1-3 pixels of working room so that’s gonna be as big as it gets, but between this and massive there will be a pretty noticieable difference.

If you do a size above monumental, would you try naming he next ambitious size colossal?

with tmodloader you can simply increase the sheet width so i suppose there really isn’t a limit! unless you don’t wanna use tmodloader incase you want to play on like, a vanilla server with friends or something

This was actually one of my ideas for monumental. The reason I settled on the current name is so it shows after “massive” on the file explorer if it’s set to follow an alphabetical order (which I assume is the case for 99% of people here), and while that means I have to come up with increasingly esoteric names for an arbitrary number of future weights I think the convenience of having everything in a neat ascending order of weight is worth using any weird terms down the line, and for that reason I probably won’t use “colossal” but any suggestions that fit the current order (or perhaps a completely new naming scheme so there’s more working room for newer weights) I’m willing to consider.

That’s something I could consider in the future, I suppose. That said, using tmodloader solely for the sake of getting bigger sheets seems like a bit of a waste to me, for now I think keeping it to a plain vanilla resource pack format is enough.

Has the mod been temporarily disabled? Tried to make it work and followed the steps, but it won’t activate

Edit; I managed to get the game to recognize the resource pack, but it won’t recognize me making the NPCs fat like the Guide.

Is this still being worked on?

Hopefully we get an update soon, this was a fantastic pack
