INTRODUCTION

+

+ asëprite is an open source program to create animated + sprites. Sprites are little images that can be used in your website + or in a video game. You can draw characters with movement, intros, + textures, patterns, backgrounds, logos, color palettes, isometric + levels, etc. +

+

+ What makes asëprite different? It focuses on pixel editing, to do + pixel-art. Indeed, it isn't a photo retouching tool or a vector + graphics editor. Mainly it is a tool to create tiny animations + pixel-by-pixel. +

+ +

FEATURES

+

+ The biggest features of asëprite are: +

+

+

    +
  • + Sprites are composed by layers and frames. These two concept are separated. + You have layers in one side and frames on the other side. You can imagine this as a + matrix, where each row is a layer and each column is a frame. +
    • +
  • + Supported color modes: RGBA, Grayscale and Indexed images (palettes up to 256 colors). +
    • +
  • + Supported image formats (load/save): PNG, GIF, JPG, FLC, FLI, BMP, PCX, TGA, and ASE (special format). +
    • +
  • + Load and save animations in a sequence of bitmaps (e.g. frame1.png, frame2.png, etc.). +
    • +
  • + Tiled drawing mode, useful to draw patterns and textures. +
    • +
  • + Undo/Redo for every operation. +
    • +
  • + Special tools like Blur, Jumble, Convolution Matrices. +
    • +
  • + Multiple editors support. You can split an editor horizontally or vertically multiple times + to edit and view the same sprite with different zooms, or different sprites. +
    • +
  • + Onion skinning. +
    • +
+

+ +

CONFIGURATION FILES

+

+ In Windows 98/2K/XP/Vista the main configuration file is + aseprite.cfg which is saved in the same folder of + aseprite.exe + executable file (in this way asëprite is a portable + application, i.e. you can transport a copy of the program + in your USB drive). +

+

+ The following is a list of all configuration files that you could + modify (it is not recommended to do so, but is useful if you want to + super-customize asëprite): +

+

+ 

aseprite.cfg          Program configuration
+data/gui.xml          Menus, shortcuts, and tools
+data/convmatr.def     Convolutions matrices
+data/fonts/*.pcx      Fonts to be used in the GUI
+data/jids/*.jid       XML files with dialogs
+data/skins/*.*        asëprite skins
+

+

+ In GNU/Linux, the configuration file is ~/.asepriterc, and + the data/ files are searched in these locations (in priority + order): +

+

+ 

$HOME/.aseprite/
+/usr/local/share/aseprite/
+data/
+

+ +

DEVELOPERS

+

COMPILATION

+

+ Before compile, you have to configure how to compile asëprite, what + libraries are available, release-debug-profile mode, etc. You can + run the "fix.sh" script, answer some questions and done: the main + makefile is created, just do +

+

+ 

make
+

+

+ Or you could edit the "makefile.cfg", uncomment CONFIGURED=1 and + uncomment the necessary options, and then run +

+

+ 

makefile -f makefile.lnx
+

+

+ + For MinGW, edit the "makefile.cfg" file, and then +

+

+ 

makefile -f makefile.mgw
+

+ +

INSTALLATION

+

+ After compilation, you have two options: +

+

+

    +
  1. +

    + Running asëprite from its source directory. +

    +
    2. +
  2. +

    + Install asëprite in the directory that you specified in the "fix.sh" question: + "Where do you want install ASE by default?" (generally "/usr/local") + (in the "makefile.cfg", it's the DEFAULT_PREFIX variable) +

    +

    + Run "make install" (it only works in Unix like systems) +

    +
    3. +
+

+

UNINSTALLATION

+

+ Run "make uninstall". +

+

SUBVERSION

+

+ If you downloaded asëprite from the Subversion repository, after + updating I recommend you to do: +

+

+ 

~/ase-trunk/$ make clean
+~/ase-trunk/$ ./fix.sh
+~/ase-trunk/$ make
+

+

+ Also, you can make dependencies of the files (if you are trying to + hack the asëprite source code): +

+

+ 

~/ase-trunk/$ sh misc/deps.sh
+

+ +
