    I didn't explore the route of rendering all opaques first and then transparents
  • b
    And Ceramic also support using multiple textures in a single batch
  • b
    (which can really improve performances in some situations, like when using 2 textures in alternance, which would generate a lot of draw calls otherwise)
  • m
    Yeah im struggling with that myself
  • b
    Stress testing bin packing a bit, it seems to work great
  • b
    😄

    End of the WE project: reading 
    .aseprite
    files so that they are usable in Ceramic ✅
  • b
    Testing hot reload of aseprite projects within Ceramic. The atlas shared for multiple aseprite files is updated on reload and the displayed sprites as well
  • g
    I might switch to libresprite just for this (or just buy aseprite 😉)
  • b
    Oh I didn’t even know libresprite was a thing
  • g
    haha
  • b
    What are you using now?
  • g
    Pixelorama for pixel art, krita for normal art
  • g
    Actually there might be a plugin for pixelorama that exports to aseprite files
  • b
    Ceramic also supports the json format exported by aseprite, probably easier to generate that (although at the moment I didn’t implement the shared atlas packing on the fly feature for the json format, as it’s already an atlas itself)
  • e
    you can also just compile aseprite from source to use it for free
  • g
    true but isn't that against the license or no
  • e
    nope

    > The only restriction in Aseprite EULA is that you cannot redistribute Aseprite to third parties.
  • b
    To be frank, Aseprite is worth every penny. If you can afford it I'd suggest to just buy it
  • e
    i do agree, but it is cool that if you know how to use a terminal you can get it for free in a way that they have no issues with
  • b
    Sure, same spirit with LDtk, which is free but you can pay to give support

    Hey how is that ceramic editor of yours?
  • b
    what do you mean?
  • a
    You know that editor that works like adobe animate that you have online
  • a
    What is it’s current completion status?
  • b
    It's currently paused because I have higher priority things to do first
  • b
    That editor has bugs that need a substantial rewrite to be fixed.
  • b
    I'd like to make a simpler editor later, but can't say when
