[Hereiti]

Hello,
I wanted to share with you a software that I made for manipulating icon set & tilesets.

As a lazy person, I wanted to make it easier to do some basics images manipulation.

I wish I could add more to that post!

Years ago I wrote something like this for Ace, but it was set to 32x32 tiles and didn't handle icons (and didn't have the Rotate option). I dearly wanted to rewrite it after MV came out, but I lost the original source and just never had the drive to start over.

This will be a huge time saver! Thank you for sharing.

I'm impressed with what you've done. If only I could be as lazy as you sometimes...

Added this to my itch recommendations, a lot faster to do than I expected. I had a folder of 617 icons that I've done and almost instantly it produced them into a sheet and in order.

Thanks for your messages, I'm will try to improve this to make it the most effective and easy to use.

Here an small update I did to it today that allows drag & droping directly from the explorer.
Also prompt for a name when saving separately.

Update to 1.1.0:

This update provide a bit more basic image manipulation directly within the app.
The major part of this update was more about cleaning my mess of a code but this was necessary as I saw some atrocities .
This also allows me to prepare for some planned features such as "Mass Selection" or "Custom Grid".

Spoiler: Changelog

New Features:

• HSV manipulation
• RGB manipulation
• Animation for Characters / SV Actor
• Add a "report bug" button under "help"
• Support for Faces / SV Actors / Sprites
• Added a config.ini creation time checker
• Clickable edits buttons on the right menu
• Added a progress bar to actions performed
• Ability to flip horizontally or vertically

Changes:

• Resized the main view to get align with the left buttons
• Rearrange the view menu by adding subcategories
• Did a lot of cleanup of the previous code
• Renamed some configuration parameters

Fixes:

• Fixed a bug about drop being loaded out of bounds.
• Fixed a bug that prevents the loading of some images (such as default rtp)
• Fixed a bug from the "drag" method that could cause an issue if click too quickly at the limit of the cell
• Fixed a bug about undo/redo which didn't properly removed items from the scene before adding back the previous image

Update to 1.1.1:
- This minor update bring some visual enhancement as well as some code improvement.
- Some presets have been added such as balloons and states (with animation).
- Custom Grid is now also supported, you can customize cell width, height, grid's columns and rows.

- The main part of this update was to bring some compatibility with some creators content.

So as my first collaboration I've got the pleasure to work with Holder.
This software now contains presets for Holder's SV Actor (192x160 and 160x160). It also allows you to convert back characters to three frame animations sheet. This also grants you the ability to attach weapons to characters animation sheet or simply preview.


As usual, this software won't include any resources outside of those needed within it.

I get the following error anytime I try to save, confirmed version 1.1.1:
Uncaught Exception:
You might need to restart the application.
Consider reporting this issue so I can correct it
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "modules\misc.py", line 33, in
File "modules\files.py", line 181, in save_all_together
TypeError: 'tuple' object is not callable

Nevermind, I redownloaded from itch.io and no longer get any errors.

 

[Hereiti]

I apologize. There were typing errors for two of the most important functions: (save_all & report_issue). I've uploaded a new version yesterday that solved both.

I've include an update checker for the next release. It should be more helpful to users instead of having to check itch.io, github or here.

This is just so cool... many thanks!

 

[Hereiti]

So I've notice the following issue while working on the next release.

Depending on save options (and software), images can have different color spaces.
My software can have encounter an issue with some images such as RTP ones.
Images can load but it will add extra "images" (as shown below).

Just to inform that I won't correct it as it doesn't prevent the use of the program.
