Yes, we should improve spritesheet import options, but up until now there has never been a need to do so. We will add it to the backlog and at some point in the future fix it.

Best way to use sprite sheets for animation Am I missing something or is it only possible to have the sprites in order from 1, 2, 3, etc…for the animations in spritesheets? For example, use Kenny’s latest platformer enemies spritesheet. notic...

No. The asset pack is great. The individual sprites are perfect as always. I was merely wondering why the order in the pre-made spritesheet had changed. I am not trying to give you a hard time. I was only asking a question since one of our users asked: forum.defold.com/t/best-way-t...

Sure, I get that. But perhaps the software has an option to support left to right?

Atlas manual This manual explains how Atlas resources work in Defold.

A developer can however still use your individual images to create flipbook animations using a texture atlas and define animations that way. This is of course a perfectly valid solution too.

defold.com/manuals/atlas/

Your "old" content had animations arranged left to right which made them very easy to use in Defold. Your new spritesheet(s) with animations from top to bottom actually become unusable as-is.

Defold tile source manual This describes how to use and create a tile source.

Automatically generated how?

In Defold a spritesheet (called tilesource in Defold terms) expects sequential images from left to right (starting at the top) when defining flipbook animations within a spritesheet.

defold.com/manuals/tile...

Thank you for the updated asset pack! It looks great! May I ask why you changed the animation order in spritesheets from left->right to top->bottom? This makes the spritesheet unusable in Defold at least.

Skull Horde is using my two Defold native extensions (daabbcc and A*), and I’m very proud of that.

Also the fact that the social injustice is evident at every street corner. It is really sad. And from a political perspective I would have preferred to stay home. I will need to have a hard think if I want to make the trip again next year.

Reinvigorated? No. Exhausted? Yes! Was it worth it? Maybe? I had a lot of good meetings, but a majority of the meetings were in hotel lobbies nearby, not at the actual venue. The talks I attended were decent, but paying for GDC Vault access would probably have made more sense.

For all of your 3D packs please please make sure any glTF exports are error and warning free!

I'm becoming absolutely fed up with #Unity. Building a moderately complex UI-only game for WebGL (Release, optimized for Disk Size, no LTO, on 6000.0.29f1) is taking upwards of 30 minutes on an M1 Max. A game of similar complexity made in #Defold builds for WebGL in less than 30 seconds. #gamedev

I was about to do the same actually!

Is the macOS version notarized?
