|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<b>ASEPRITE</b> 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.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
What makes ASEPRITE 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.

<a name="configuration_files"></a><h1>CONFIGURATION FILES</h1>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In Windows XP/Vista/7 the main configuration file is
|
||||
<em>aseprite.ini</em> which is saved in the same folder of
|
||||
<em>aseprite.exe</em>
|
||||
executable file (in this way ASEPRITE is a portable
|
||||
application, i.e. you can transport a copy of the program
|
||||
in your USB drive).
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
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
|
||||
<em>super</em>-customize ASEPRITE):
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<pre>aseprite.ini Program configuration
|
||||
data/gui.xml Menus, shortcuts, and tools
|
||||
data/convmatr.def Convolutions matrices
|
||||
data/skins/*.* ASEPRITE skins
|
||||
data/widgets/*.xml XML files with dialogs</pre>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In GNU/Linux, the configuration file is ~/.asepriterc, and
|
||||
the data/ files are searched in these locations (in priority
|
||||
order):
|
||||
</p>
|
||||

## Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
**ASEPRITE** 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 ASEPRITE 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 main features of ASEPRITE are:
|
||||
|
||||
* Sprites are composed by **layers** & **frames**.
|
||||
* Supported color modes: **RGBA**, **Indexed** (palettes up to 256
|
||||
colors), and Grayscale.
|
||||
* 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.
|
||||
* **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.
|
||||
* Import/Export **Sprite Sheets**.
|
||||
* Pixel art specific tools like filled **Contour** & **Polygon**.
|
||||
* **Onion skinning**
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration files
|
||||
|
||||
In Windows XP/Vista/7 the main configuration file is `aseprite.ini`
|
||||
which is saved in the same folder of `aseprite.exe` executable file
|
||||
(in this way ASEPRITE 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

|
||||
|

data/convmatr.def Convolutions matrices
|
||||
data/skins/*.* ASEPRITE skins
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
In GNU/Linux, the configuration file is ~/.asepriterc, and the data/
