Small update on my part!
Good news: I figured out a way to convert the bmps to SVGs with them being near-identical in appearance. We're talking completely resizable vector textures, that look just like their bmp counterparts, albeit smoother! Huzzah!
Bad news: I'm going to have to go back and re-do all the ones I'd already finished. Sucks, but I'd rather have them all done with this new method, which will actually save me the trouble of redrawing many of them in the long run.
It was as simple as upscaling the bmps before I ran them through Illustrator (and I'm honestly kicking myself for not thinking of this in the first place
). After I convert them to vectors, I just scale them back down to their original sizes, and they're good to go!
Other than that, I figured out a similar method of ripping graphics from screen shots that makes them look pretty damn good! Have been playing around with this idea in Shadow Tower for the last few days, and will post the results - along with the updated SVGs - soonish, maybe in a day or so!
