The SolutionĪ sprite editor streamlines the process by allowing you to import the graphics from your designer and have the tool automatically trim, re-size and optimise the sprites for you to create the smallest possible sprite sheet. If the designer makes any changes to the graphics, it can quickly get tedious repeating the process over and over. Then you need to fine tune those animations until they look just right. Then you need to turn those sprites into animations, which requires creating definition files for the game engine or framework of your choice.
Then you need to combine those sprites into a sprite sheet so that you get all the speed and size benefits that it provides. First your graphics designer gives you a set of awesome sprites that he has created in individual files. The problem is that the process of getting the sprites into your game can be fiddly and time consuming. If this question is not posted properly, appologies, and please let me know how to solve my problem.ĭusty22 wrote:I just found the most amazing tool for cutting up sprite sheets! It's free and it works so awesomely! It's called Spricer, it traces the sprites for you when you open a sprite sheet in some image format, then you can export a whole sheet in seconds! Here's the link: So far I'd been using Gimp or Macromedia Fireworks at my school but this is even better! Pretty sure no viruses or anything in the download.As a game developer you use sprites extensively in your games to create characters, backgrounds and other items. I mean, even if I make sprite-figures by cutting on the shapes properly on Photoshop, after saving with jpeg or something, when I put on the stage, my making sprites always with white background squares… Does the Spricer help this phenomenon? I am only a beginner and English is not my native language.
I would like to cut off extra parts around the sprites that I made by my own, because needless white backgrounds are always behind my making sprites. Is there still the “Spricer”? The link was expired already.
