AtlasTextureJSON

AtlasTexture JSON Icon

About

Custom class for the Godot Engine based on AtlasTexture. This class uses the .json files that are created when exporting sprite sheets to compile Symbols / Tags and their respective frames to create a sprite.

Currently supported sprite sheet formats:

  • Aseprite
  • Adobe Animate / Flash

Features
  • Automatic loading of a .json file when the texture is loaded.
  • Support for both Hash and Array-based .json formats.
  • Aseprite's Tags and Adobe Animate / Flash's Symbols seperated in sections through the symbol property.
  • Texture scaling through a scale property within the AtlasTextureJSON.
    • Customisable scale interpolation via scale_behaviour property.
  • Customisable frame looping behaviour via frame_behaviour property.

Planned

  • Aseprite custom formatting options.

Tentative

  • Custom offsets on symbols.

  • Automatic Atlas creation with presets via the Import tab.

  • A completely independent class TextureJSON (without inheriting AtlasTexture.).

    • Instructions

    1. Download the plugin (from AssetLib, or through cloning this repository).
    2. No enabling required, this "plugin" is really just a script that adds a new class to your project.
    3. Create a new resource instance of AtlasTextureJSON on any Texture2D-based property.
    4. Load your source image into the texture property of the resource.
    5. Select the sprite and frame you want via the symbol and frame properties.

    Exporting

    [!IMPORTANT] When Exporting from Aseprite, The Item Filename format must be:

    {tag}{tagframe0000}

    [!IMPORTANT] The .json file must have the same base name as your texture image.

    ✅ YES:

    📁Sprites
  ├─ 🎨 sprite.png
  └─ 📃 sprite.json

    ❌ NO:

    📁Sprites
  ├─ 🎨 sprite_image.png
  └─ 📃 sprite_json_data.json

    Issues

    • JSON file is not updated automatically (#2)
