First off thanks for posting the screenshot, helped me to see what went wrong!
I can see what happened here, you clicked Write Images to Disk before you clicked the Slice button. It's the fault of the UI, the write button should be disabled until slice is clicked. I'll update the software to prevent this - or maybe if you click the write before without clicking slice it will automatically slice first? - anyhow, for now, just be sure to click Slice before Write images to disk.
Hi, it's not immediately obvious in the software but if you select a few sprites, e.g. the idle sprites, you can type 'idle' in the file name prefix field and the app will assign that prefix to those sprites when it writes them out. You can do this for any one or more of the sprites in the sheet, so for example all the left facing characters you can select and set the prefix to 'left' and the output will be left_0.png, left_1.png, left_2.png etc. Does that cover what you are referring to?
I've updated the software to include the following:
- Bug fix for large sprite sheet reported by Girkov Apra
- Now accepts image files via drag and drop
- Whilst the application is slicing sprites, displays progress in a status message plus a cancel button
- Displays a grid over the image to serve as a slicing guide
8 bit Invasion is a first person shooter where you take on the invading 8 bit aliens. As you destroy each alien the pixels will drop to the ground, creating an ever growing mass of blocks. Almost everything in the map can and will be destroyed, either by you or by the aliens. Shoot the swoopers for added fun, dodge the falling bombs and lasers to stay alive and keep an eye on the mini map for nearby ammo packs and medic packs.
