The Middle sprite is used for event standing still. Walking/stepping animations go like this: Middle -> Right -> Middle -> Left -> Middle. There are exactly twelve Sprites in a Character: four rows (directions) and three columns (frames of animation). Refers to the entire set of sprites that makes up a single character. If you are using sprites that protrude in a certain direction, you need to pad ALL the sprites with transparent pixels so they will line up properly. Notice the size difference with these two sprites. The final size of the sheet is based on the size of a sprite. It is important to note that any transparent pixels will count towards the sprite's size. They can be any size (N pixels x M pixels), but keep in mind that the standard map tile size is 32px x 32px in VX Ace and 48px x 48px in MV/MZ. (Disclaimer: These are my own terminology, used for this tutorial, and may not be the same as other people's!) Sprite Anatomy of a SpritesheetĮach spritesheet can be divided into three components. This tutorial uses sprites from the VX Ace RTP, but the principles are the same in MV and MZ. Eight directional / diagonal sprites are not covered. This tutorial only focuses on the default behavior of the program(s), without the use of any external plugins or scripts. This tutorial aims to clear up any confusion or misconceptions surrounding sprites. They face issues like sprites cutting off or the editor only displaying a tiny piece of their sprite. Many new makers, often artists, have difficulty making their custom artwork function properly in Ace/MV/MZ.
Engine: RPG Maker VX Ace, MV, and MZ Difficulty: Easy Introduction Google is your friend when it comes to finding tutorials of doing this.An explanation on how character/spritesheets work in RPG Maker VX Ace, MV, and MZ. Then RPGmaker should take care of the rest. Find your file and make sure your transparency color is set to the background color.
Go back to the resource manager and click import. Make sure you save it as a png and have the background of your sprites saved as a color you don't use (bright neon pink is my favorite). So making the sprites wider than 32 pixels will result in strange collisions. Also, RPGmaker follows the 32x32 pixel rule for each square. However, you must have the sheet follow that pattern of 12 images for each sprite. Now you can change the size of your sprites. Your custom sprites should follow this formula. You will notice that each sprite sheet has 8 differnt sprites. But is a nice alternative as you can use layers and stuff.Įxport a spritesheet (doesn't matter which one) from rpgmaker in the resource manager from RPGmaker. You could use ms paint if you really wanted to. Get yourself a paint program of some kind.
