If you use GIMP you may have found that there are some tedious tasks when working with RPG Maker Tiles and pictures.
This script aims to automatise some of them

How to install GIMP scripts: (remember to unzip the file first)

Features:
Auto select grid size: It is hard to remember the size of the tiles on each different image map, so the plugin changes the grid size to the specified one. Right now it supports:
fixed sizes: Faces, Icons, Tilesets
and dynamic sizes: file of 1 character and file of 8 characters.

I'm not using other image maps, but it is easy to add other sizes and formats

Character mirroring:
Working on small changes on a character then means you need to copy paste each different change on their mirrored counterparts for frames and directions, this script automatises cleaning and copy/past of those frames
Important: For this script you need to click on the canvas once to see the results

This is awesome.

I find that often when using GIMP - my shadows and transparencies will export much too dark. Anyone else run into this and know of a workaround? Im sure it's just a setting or something that I am overlooking?

Time for the next chance for y'all to affect my advent calendar! Where should Day 7's sprite come from: land, sea, or demon realm? :rwink:
Throné's final boss is weird. He is a guy holding a baby while fighting off attackers. I think his name was Santos. I might be thinking of someone else.
I think I've just about finished fighting the fight with the tileset I was most intimidated by for game jam. No pictures yet, the map isn't presentable, but I think the tileset will work! I'm very relieved XD
Twitch! At it again with more gamedev for a couple hours, followed by some Valheim with my friend. Feel free to drop by~
these 80+ gb updates on several years old games are the absolute worst. I just want to play for an hour or so before bed to unwind. Sorry, gotta spend that time downloading an update. Then my mods will be broken so I'll have to start over or wait for those to be updated to. Is a complete game within three years of the pay to be a beta tester period really to much to ask?
