'''Sprite Editing''' is a form of modding which consists of gfx and xml sprite editing. The following article will help you understand more about this topic.
==
'''Gfx editing''' is a type of sprite editing that allows you to modify the art assets of anything in the game. This section will list all of the steps to gfx editing.
''See [[File Locations]].''
'''Premultiplied alpha''' is a technique used in computer graphics to improve the quality of images with transparent or semi-transparent areas. Across all of the gfx files in the game, all gfx files are premultiplied. To properly edit gfx files, you must first unpremultiply the image. While there are many ways to do so, the most common way to do so across modders is to use a [https://www.getpaint.net/ paint.net] plugin called [https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/113378-premultiply-alpha/ PreMultiply Alpha] and unpremultiply the image. After doing so, the image will no longer be premultiplied, and you are free to edit it. After you're done with editing, you will have to premultiply the image again, or else the modified sprites will have a crust around them in-game.
'''Xml editing''' is a type of sprite editing that allows you to change each sprite's coordinates, allowing for extended sprite borders, as well as being able to change if a sprite goes up, down, left, or right, and how much it goes in that direction.
