The axis for these rips is 320,384.

These sprites were originally ripped by aokmaniac13 (from: https://www.justnopoint.com/lbends/Sprites/CVS2/ ). The file structure (names and organization) are identical to those rips, with one exception: the non-Kyo effect sprites have been removed.

A note about the burning Kyo sprites: these are all (with two exceptions, described below, that just seem like minor errors) exactly identical to their non-burning sprite counterparts, they merely use a different palette.

The credits for the new sprites are as follows:
	- 412 Shiki: Hikigane (both LK and HK versions) and KOF99 winpose/123 Shiki: Shaku En sprites by MotorRoach.
	- KOF2001+ style 125 Shiki: Nanase sprites by SeanAltly.
	- 182 Shiki sprites by Byakko, with edits to startup by Izumo.
	- 910 Shiki: Nue Tsumi sprites by Troy, with edits by MotorRoach.
	- KOF98 intro vs Shingo sprites by Troy.
	- 1999 Shiki: Kiri Homura sprites by VioFitz, with edits by Izumo and TMasta; Kiri Homura intro sprites by Troy.
	- 524 Shiki: Kamukura, KOF style intro startup, KOF96-98 winpose, KOFXI intro vs. Ash Crimson, and Kusanagi intro by VioFitz.
	- Close heavy punch sprite edits by Lurker.
	- KOF XIII taunt sprite edits by Speedster.
Anything not mentioned in this list was a (very basic, simplistic edit) made by me.

Whenever I do color separations, I strive to avoid making any modification to the sprites that could not be "reset" back to the original CvS2 set if the original palette was applied; however, there were a few unavoidable instances where I felt the need to make minor edits to the sprites. These are documented below:
