(Credit to Sacraicross if you use this)Īll in all if you follow those guidelines you should have a pretty easy time of getting sprites to work properly. Requires an "!" and a "$" (Example !$Morgairth) This only requires one character but must be 3 squares by 4 squares and so If your character is 48 pixels wide and 64 pixels tall then your sprite sheet needs to be 144 x 256 (3 in width across 4 in height). (Credit to Mack aka Looseleaf & Tharis if you use these) Requires an "!" to be at the front of the sprite sheet to designate that it is a different size of sprite but also requires room for 8 (even if all 8 spots are not used). Requires no Tagging just 8 character spots (Default sprite sheets).

It might help to look at the default sprite sheets to understand exactly how that works if you aren't familiar with them.īasically, just arrange the different frames of the sprite in the way which the engine expects to find them, and they'll work fine, regardless of their size.What they mean by 8 sprites is that there needs to be room for as many as 8 Unless you have a Large creature which will change the tagging method. It is also possible to use the "$" and "!" special characters together.

This is primarily used for objects found in the map such as doors and treasure chests. Including a "!" at the beginning of the file name will prevent the image from being shifted 6 pixels and will no longer appear half transparent by bush elements. It is possible treat 1 character as 1 file by including "$" at the beginning of the file name. Moreover, characters will be shown 6 pixels above tile so that they appear more natural when on top of buildings.

The size of the character will be calculated using 1/12 of the width and 1/8 of the height of this file. Custom sprite sheet sizing and formatting In this tutorial, youll learn how to size your own custom sprite sheet to work with RPG Maker MV engine. A file for 1 character will be arranged into 2 rows and 4 columns equaling 8 images. The size for a character image can be changed freely (normally 48x48), and consist of 4 directions (down, left, right, up) and 3 patterns for a total of 12 patterns that will be arranged in the provided order.
