Anatomy of a SpritesheetĮach spritesheet can be divided into three components. This tutorial uses sprites from the VX Ace RTP, but the principles are the same in MV and MZ. Eight directional / diagonal sprites are not covered. This tutorial only focuses on the default behavior of the program(s), without the use of any external plugins or scripts. This tutorial aims to clear up any confusion or misconceptions surrounding sprites. They face issues like sprites cutting off or the editor only displaying a tiny piece of their sprite. Many new makers, often artists, have difficulty making their custom artwork function properly in Ace/MV/MZ. Engine: RPG Maker VX Ace, MV, and MZ Difficulty: Easy Introduction If you really want something robust where you can have 5+ walking frames and potentially even different frame counts based on the object in question (7 frames for walking, 3 for vehicles, 5 for ships) then you may want another engineĪs far as animations for a cutscene, where I'm assuming you're going to have animation not normally seen under player control, then it's no real different than any other sprite based system where you tell it to play these particular frames in this particular sequence.An explanation on how character/spritesheets work in RPG Maker VX Ace, MV, and MZ. It's a feature to have those decisions made for you. Simplified animation means Alice and Bob, who have the artistic skills of a particularly talented rock, stand a greater chance of actually creating custom art for their game, especially as they don't have to worry about tweaking how animation works or worrying if they should use 3 or 4 frames and if it should be a 123123 or 12321 pattern or. Searching terms like "RPGMaker MV animation frames increase" or "RPGMaker MV Walking animation frames" will give you plugins to add more framesīut - again - the three frame limit is not a bug - it's a feature. If you want to use more than three frames on a 12321 pattern, you'll need a plugin to adjust them. How am I supposed to deal with these shortcomings?įirst and foremost, RPGMaker is designed to be an entry level engine, which means the vast majority of the decisions are made for you - decisions like how animation frames work.
