If a friend was going to make you a sprite, and had never played Dominions before, what information would he/she need?

Just the pixel height, width, and resolution?

Say I wanted(i do not) a dinosaur sprite.

And I told my friend 64 x 64 pixels, 32 bit color, 2pixels space from feet to bottom of image, and to put it in a tga.file, and the image must be uncompressed or REL(whatever that is) is that enough information?

You could give them a couple of pics from other mods that you like and that look right ingame. That should tell them what they need to know.

Be careful how much material you get from other companies.
We might have to require that companies permission for the mod.

Are you serious? Has there been a video game mod law passed recently, because that would shut down 90% of the modding community.
