hello all, over the course of the next few days/weeks im going to be modding terraria with hd pngs and creating my own texture and loading them in game with terraria png loader and hopefully at the end i will have a complete hd terraria.
cannot wait see u guys soon.

ok so first of all the pngloader which you can download here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/24414601/Terraria/TerrariaPngLoader/TerrariaPngLoader.zip

once you download it you must extract its contents to the main terraria directory which should be C:/windows/programfiles(86x)/steam/steamapps/common/terraria
depending on where you have steam installed
scaled.php

once you have done that you wil need to create a folder inside the custom content folder that you have just installed, name that folder suitable for what images you will be putting in there, for example sprites. then inside that folder create another one called images, this is where you pngs are going to be.
scaled.php

after you have done that, load the pngloader check the tick box's and save and quit then add it to your steam profile :P and launch from steam
scaled.php

i will be adding to this with new textures and downloads.

now i shall show you how to make your own textures.
first download the xnb to png program http://localhostr.com/download/ucxr1ZD/XNB To PNG Converter.zip
then go to your terraria directory, then content/images and copy the whole contents of the folder and paste it in the input folder which you have just extracted.
run the program and then you should have png's in the output folder and should be good to edit

scaled.php


i am no artist and this is my first attempt at pixel work, but i think its going well.

now just need to work out how to change the blue stuff coming from it :P

next thing i want to do now is a complete rework of the ivy whip
 
ran into a bit of a hickup, i have edited the diving helmet and also downloaded someone else's chest but they are not changing, however their icons have.

maybe i am editing the wrong files? but this is strange because when i edited the sword it changed both the icon and when im using it

update

managed to sort it, i was editing the icon file doh, well theres a lot more to edit than i thought.
new and improved diving helmet

if anyone wants the helmet.
scaled.php
<- rename to Armor_Head_27
scaled.php
<<-- seperate image. (rename to Item_268)

the mana bar was someone else's and for the health i replaced the normal one with a health crystal and changed the colours abit and also tryed to get rid of the pixelyness :P

if anyone wants to use the heart
scaled.php
<-- rename to heart first

The health bar is nice not sure about the mana circles tho, not that stars are much better

i was thinking the same tbh, gonna give it a shot at making my own before i go bed

edit:
there you go plain and simple, cuz thats how i like it :P
scaled.php

might change the colour of it tho, and i need to make it so when you use your mana the blocks dont overlap so it looks like one big mana bar

edit 2: also kalvindeane's attempt at doing goku (he wouldn't post so i did :P)
e4727f6cfc9b4b0299aa7ae249cd521f

if your using layers and then flattening the image that will likeyly be the problem :P
blue mana bar
scaled.php

tried to give it a gold outline like it usually has in games but it disappears as the mana does cuz i havn't figured out if i can even do a floating texture yet to put around it, if you want to use rename to mana.png

im not to sure if the gravestone will work but it should do, i am yet to edit the item image for all of these anyway so can not test them yet, but it easy enough i can just copy and paste these onto the item one
