Simple: the sprites are mapped onto planes that are rigged to make those movements in 3D space, while the sprites themselves animate with texture/material animations. Technically the characters are 3D models made of planes in every game, even PM64 (you can easily see it when a character is electrocuted on emulators since a glitch causes the electric effect to not take into account the transparency of the sprite). TTYD, SPM, and SS simply are rigs comprised of many planes rather than a single plane with a full body sprite mapped onto it.

Y'know I've been curious about and and hoping someone could shed some light on how the flat paper characters have been animated in this game and Origami King, since they're apparently just sprites like in 64 yet they can bend and contort like models.

@Random Talking Bush: Thanks a bunch!

ACYosh Feb 18, 2021 6:22 PM

@ACYosh: They're in the Graphics/Panel folder. "panel_tex_high" are for the large images, and there's a separate file for each language.

@DogToon64: I want to see where they're stored in the game's files. Sorry if the previous comment sounded rude.

ACYosh Feb 10, 2021 7:26 AM

@ACYosh: In the "Battle Cards" section?
What specifically are you looking for?

DogToon64 Feb 8, 2021 6:30 PM

Where the heck are the battle cards stored in the game's files

ACYosh Feb 8, 2021 6:24 PM

Also I noticed that this game isn't on the models resource. How come?

McBragginsGamingYT Nov 3, 2020 10:38 PM

What's the difference between the sprites and models of the paper mario games? Or just any game.

McBragginsGamingYT Nov 3, 2020 10:36 PM

same smh

@Luigifan1115 It's my favorite Paper Mario game too.

DogToon64 Aug 26, 2020 8:39 PM

Ah, yes. My favorite Paper Mario.
So far, that is. I haven't played ToK yet because I'm putting it off 'til I finish this game.

Luigifan1115 Jul 24, 2020 4:28 PM

True, but still for the new sprites as much as I can’t wait to see them, Ik that things take time, so I rather wait for RTB to get the sprites as soon as he can, not when people want them. Like I said before things take time.

Some sprites of the splash color are recycled into the origami king.

JosueCr4ft Jul 18, 2020 10:18 PM

Let's hope people will be patient this time around for the Origami King Sprites.

NMarioMaster7 Jul 18, 2020 4:20 AM

Someone know about the dust effect??

ZuxGame Jun 5, 2020 12:41 PM

Any chance to get this game's model and sfx? Because like, the new Paper Mario is on the edge of corner now so it would be nice to get some more stuff from this game..

Naffy zacky May 29, 2020 2:18 PM

so... many... TOADS!

Sonic the Sketchhog May 25, 2020 1:19 AM

Needs more origami.

I really like this game, and with the simple colors and choppier sprite feels more like paper since it just gives the feel of it being paper.
