This trope is used in part to create Copy and Paste Environments, Ditto Fighter, and Underground Monkeys. See also Colour-Coded for Your Convenience. For a similar time-saving technique, see Ambidextrous Sprite. Color-Coded Armies may also show up in 2D games. When the head (or any other body part) is changed as well, then it's more accurately a Head Swap. Individual characters may also have a choice of several different colors or costumes (or both).Ĭolor-Coded Multiplayer is a Sub-Trope, applied to player characters. Some fans of fighting games use the term to refer to characters that use the same animations and move sets, even if the characters look very different. Sometimes even bosses are simply re-textured and huge versions of weaker monsters. Palette Swap to the rescue! By changing the size and textures used on the same model, the designers can make many types of monsters from only a few basic meshes. Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Games MMORPGs are often set in a very large world that must be populated by monsters. Not even modern games are entirely immune to this primarily 2D game pitfall, however. However, this was not new to 3D: On the SNES, some RPGs were able to use the foreground and background layers to put something in front of the tiles, changing the appearance of the original monster "sprite", making this aversion Older Than They Think.

Clever code can even allow you to use differently sized characters with the same animations. Because animation is no longer tied directly to models, it is much easier to create new models and textures for a character while still using the same animation set. In 3D game development, however, changing only the colors has mostly died off, but there are similar variations. (The most famous group of these are probably the Slimes, topped by the powerful Metal Slime, of Dragon Quest fame.) Palette Swapping was used to create a large variety of different enemies, often using different colors for various power levels. In the 8- and 16-bit era RPGs, it was pervasive: because of console limitations, disk and screen space were serious concerns. In fighting games, this is commonly used to differentiate players using the same character, but it is also employed to create "new" characters. This is seen in some platformers, but it most often appears in Role Playing Games and Fighting Games. One cost-effective method for increasing the variety of game characters is to reuse the same sprite, but using a different color palette. In 2D game development, the creation of sprites is a labor-intensive task moreso if the sprites are animated. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples.Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted.Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so.
