Sprite map builder?

[paul_nicholls]

I'm playing around with SDL and sprites and I'm going to make a sprite map of all my sprites. Instead of figuring out the optimal placement of sprites on the sprite map manually, does anybody know of a program (preferably free!) that can do it for me? Googling turned up a program called Sprite Builder, but none of the many links actually lead to a working download site.

Hi
Are you talking about trying to fit all sprites into a larger rectangle?

If so, you can try my image packer program I wrote:

http://www.pascalgamedevelopment.com...p?topic=4974.0

It allows you to import and pack multiple smaller images into one big image which you can then export as a single image.

You can also save as xml or ini, the locations in the larger rectangle of all the smaller sprites for easy access later on

cheers,
Paul
