Character Sprite horizontal offset

[setsuna03]

Does anyone know exactly by how many pixels RMVXA offsets character sprites relative to the 32x32 grid? Seems to be around 4 or 5 pixels, but I can't tell for sure.

Check your help file, resource standards - it's 4 pixels.


However, if you've sprites where it's not wanted (door sprites for example), simply turn it off with ! (see the same part of the help file)

Huh. It's right there in the Help file... Thanks! It was a little difficult to find without knowing what I was looking for exactly.

Question resolved. Thanks again!

I'd like to chime in since this is not closed yet.

I have Gates/doors that are 64x64 and tiles that are 32x32. I have tried several different file sizes, both !, $ and !$ combined and nothing at all but these 64x64 doors/gates are still offset by 4 pixels.

How do I get these 64x64 doors to place center between a 32x32 wall tile inside a 64x64 gap/empty tile where the door should be placed:

[32x32] [64x64] [32x32] ?

My math isn't very good these days trying to determine the one-third and one-fourth adjustments to get the doors to place correctly.

you can't. The sprites are always centered, so for exact grid placement they need to be either one tile (32 pixel width) or three tiles (96 pixel width).


If you use a 64 pixel width, that sprite will always be half tile left and half tile right from the center position.
