Has anyone used or know a softwate which is capable of generating large scale sprite sheets?
I have been requested by a developer to make a controller ( Control knob ) 150 frames, and the PNG images, to be in 3 different dimensions:
500 px X 500 px
1000 px X 1000 px
1500px X 1500 pixels
I found online a after effects script plugin called Sheetah, has anyone used it? I'd like to keep within AE for my tasks, as Im more comfortable doing this. I know about adobe animate, but I dont know how to use it.
Even at 500 px a sprite sheet with 150 frames in it would be humungously large, let alone at the other sizes. That would be 25000 x 15000 px or more. I don't know any program that would create such files or work with them. If such large sprites or image planes are required, you typically create them inside the game engine by converting an image sequence into into a DDS package or a custom table and write the lookup code around it. If you just mean packing your little bullet point strip into an image then there's probably enough tools inside the game engines or free little utilities. I haven't done much gaming stuff, but xNormal and other such tools I vaguely remember used to do such things.
