Yes indeed, animated (and automatic) brush changing is on the list for the next update of Ben's Brush already! 😀

Oh, hmm i thought itch let videos be embedded but looks like it is just images dang!
Okay so the reason it's only drawing on the one frame is because by default loop draw is looping over all the frames in the timeline. Because you've only got the one it's painting all your pixels there.
You can either add in some more blank frames, I belive the hotkey in Aseprite is Ctrl B, and then it should loop though the cels / frames when is looping is on. This is where you toggle is drawing and just move (not clicking) on the canvas 😀
The other option is in the adv settings called Append Last Frame. This will keep adding frames to the end of the timeline (after the last frame) instead of looping around.
Again sorry for any confusion on this. I hope I can some how find a work around in the future for using the mouse click instead of the toggle but yeah its tricky stuff!
Let me know if this helps though!! 😀
Aye thank you for your support on these!! Sorry for any confusion!
Hmm it should be placing pixels when is drawing is toggled on, though maybe it needs to also have is looping on first. There might be some toggling in the background getting mixed up but would you be able to post a video showing what youve got set up? Would love to take a look!
Oh also not sure that it matters but the 1,2,3 I have set were on the number pad, not sure if the normal numbers conflict with something but worth noting I guess haha
:( I do remember you had mentioned this previously. It seems like there is something on the back end preventing some countries from buying on here, I'm not sure if there is anything I can do on my end currently though I am in the process of setting up a pateron which might be a way to give access to the tools at some point?
Sorry for all the hassle :( I wonder if itch support would be able to do anything even too?
Aye! Thank you for your kind words 😀 So awesome that you found my tools though that video! Honestly I was just so honored to be featured, the tool is very fun to play with!
That is the goal, to make more tools. I've got a board full of them actually 😆 They just take time and energy which is tough these days but I'm out here trying atleast hahaha
Awesome! Welcome in to the pixel art and game dev btw! It's super fun to create and see projects come to life 😀 Looking forward to seeing what you create!
Looking in to this further, from what i can tell, itch accpets payments via creditcard/debit and paypal.
As mentioned in Titan's comment above im loooking in to some other options that will hopefully help with this. Though it would def be nice to keep everything in one place somehow cus itch is pretty great for sure!
If you might have a card I would try that first and see if it let's you buy but if not reach out on Twitter dm an I can try and figure something out for you as well :)
It's quite unfortunate that it blocks like this so hopefully we figure something out! Sorry for all the troubles though!
Oh no, this is no good! I belive itch accepts credit/debit cards and paypal transactions. If you have a card try that because I've heard that paypal has a some blacklist or something unfortunately 😞
I am looking in to some other options, one of which would be an application on Steam with each tool as a dlc. Hopping this will help get around the country payment issues in the future as this has happened a few times already.
If your able to send me a dm on Twitter I can see if there is anything else I could do on my end even temporarily 😀 Sorry for all the troubles!
Hello there, thank you for reaching out and thank you for your kind words! I would love to help on this but currently i don't think i could take this one on.
Ive look in to this a bit and it does seem there is an psd exporter script available, however it does not import psd to aseprite.
When looking over the script and it looks really quite complicated and they seem to be creating a binary file from scratch. Basicly this process would need to go the other way looking at a binary file and taking it apart which might be doable but I'm not sure how long it would take to make sure it's working correctly.
Here is a link to the script I found that exports to psd though! Just for reference.
https://github.com/Tsukina-7mochi/aseprite-scripts/tree/0ccb70e8cbf8e42545c41b12...
This might be something that eventually gets added to aseprite though again it's really quite complicated to get it working correctly. Espcially if Adobe changes anything in their file format. Something to look at in the future for sure though!
The detail in this scene between the layers is so amazing! Putting together a little parallax scrolling example and this is perfect! I didn't notice any license on this, hopefully you don't mind me using in an example gif / video showing off some new features of my parallax tool. Credit where credit is due of course! I'll be sure to point people your way for these amazing sprites :)
Oh I think i might have just responded to your comment on youtube xD Ill repost here though just incase its seen first haha
Thank you thank you!
In regards to the issue you've mentioned, there might be a couple of things at play here.
Not sure if youtube allows links in comments but if there was any way you might be able to screen record you scene set up I can try and help!
If you are able to post an issue here with details that would be amazing:
https://github.com/CarbsCode/CarbsAsepriteExtensions/issues
The modify exsisting button generally is used if you've got some sort of animated set of cels, or even cels with data already in them. (Showing the dot filled in).
That being said how it should be working is it doesn't modify the first or last selected cel as those are considered keyframes in the tool. It only modifies the cels between them so that the your to and from cels stay put.
When you say second frame doesn't change do you mean the last cel or is it more so like you've got 5 cels selected with data and cel number 2 of the 5 isn't moving? Actually I might have run in to this while making the video when showing the tween interpolation the first 2 cels or frames were the same so this might be a bug that existed before the update even 😆
Something I need to look in to I guess haha
Ah yeah v1.1.4 has the color mode issue. I've already got the fix for this implemented for the next release though! :D
More info on the bug tracker here:
https://github.com/CarbsCode/CarbsAsepriteExtensions/issues/7
And yeee thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you were able to find this :D
Good Morning! You may be able to do this using The Tween Machine by doing a scale and position tween on each door, they would have to be on their own layers to do this but then could be merged down together again :)
Also you may need to scale down (start with the doors closed and then scale them down to look open) this way the tool has more pixels to work with.
It's a bit hard to describe in text actually 😆 and I'm not sure if it would look excatly how this looks but it would give you a basic animation to start refining! 😀
Yeee excellent! The team over at aseprite is already on top of this as well as of a few hours ago so we might even see a patch soon that fixes the source of this issue. I truly appreciate all that they do! As I said in a response they are doing gods work and we are blessed to have such an amazing program 😀
I just found out that 1.3.3 is where this is happening.
I'm guessing your on aseprite 1.3.3 that just updated a few days ago D:
It seems there is some major issues with transactions in 1.3.3, I've reached out directly to Aseprite this morning to see if there was an unnoted change.
TO FIX FOR NOW:
https://gyazo.com/3d09d01bd54afaa358e3c330e5d08d80
Simply revert to 1.3.2 like so and everything will work again!
Sorry about this! Sometimes things are out of my control and it's inside aseprite itself. I'll be digging deeper in to this if there is something I need to change for 1.3.3 but so far nothing on the docs says there was a change :(
SOLVED: Aseprite 1.3.4 patched in the fix for this :D
Oh your all good, honestly thank you for the heads up on this!
Did some digging in to this and unfortunately, atleast from what ive seen, You'll have to revert to 1.3.2 temporarily it seems transactions might be a bit bugged right now in the newest aseprite! It's pretty easy to go back a version see here!
https://gyazo.com/3d09d01bd54afaa358e3c330e5d08d80
I've reached out to aseprite to see if its something that changed or something might have been bugged. Will also be sifting though everything to see what I can find as well. Hopefully can get it fixed right away!
I have just released my 8th Aseprite extension!! Introducing....
An undockable / floating color palette! Ready to be placed wherever you might need it :D
Huge shoutouts to Fazziesan for the idea and request on this one, be sure to check out her awesome live streams and pixel arts!
The tool is currently on sale though the remainder of September :D

Hope you enjoy this tool and it helps out,
Much Love!

Ayeeee thank you so much for your kind words 🥰
I'm glad you are finding it useful! 😀 and I very much appreciate your support!
One day I shall push the update that I currently have, it will clean up everything and put them in these nice tabs :) Much easier to look at when you don't have to look at everything lol
Would also like to convert to an extension for easier updates and installing too! Something to look forward to in the future :D
Oh, interesting! When i double click on the extension from my downloads folder it opens up aseprite and jumps right to the little extention menu. I wonder if its not able to open your aseprite automaficly for some reason?
Regardless though I'm glad that you got it working! :D Sorry for any confusion! 😆
Let me know how it works for ya! Hopefully quite helpful 😀
Yes indeed! Its all packaged together for this one and can even be installed by simply double clicking the extension once you download it :) It will put all the files where they need to go. Its actually really nice!
I still need to update my other tools to extensions to do the same, it helps so much when I update to just double click the extension and it overwrites the files it needs to! So much better :D
Im not excatly sure how it works on the back end either but I sent you over a key which should allow you to claim the tool and add to your library 😀
Thank you so much for your kind words and gratitude! The tools take a lot of work to make so it's quite nice to see and hear they are being so useful!
I do have atleast a few tools in the works which I hope to release soon enough! So def be on the look out for those 😀
Appreciate all your support and hopefully this works for you!
