1. Is the definition of a "spritemod" one that is compatible with vanilla?
I had an idea for a spritemod where I would draw up a ton of different spy stab animations (Pulls out a sword, Shoryuken, TF2 spy taunt, Falcon Punch, etc.), and then have a random animation appear every time a spy stabs. Naturally, this would require some coding outside of simply replacing the sprites. Would the mod still be just a "spritemod"?

2. Anybody here willing to cooperate with me and handle the coding?
If making an "animation loadout" (a menu where one can customize which animations the spy will/will not randomly exhibit) is within your power, please post here.

Yeah, spritemod has to be compatible with current official build.
Anything that isn't counts as non-sprite mod.

As for cooperation, try making "Official Haxxy Cooperation Thread" or something in General Chatter or General GG2 discussion.

I'm also curious if something like KZ's Sci-fi mod would count as a pure spritemod.  Clearly there is coding done outside the normal Vanilla game (ie Gordon's suit talks), but it's still compatible, so...is it technically a spritemod or "real" mod?

In fact, he DID answer my question

Good point, actually. I'd say sprite mod, as it doesn't really add any features that alter the gameplay.
