All good. I love what you’re doing. I need this. We all need this. You’re literally carrying Christmas on your back. If you need a further pep talk, memes for motivation or a voucher for McNuggets, I got you.
Best wishes for the holidays.

Hey! Is there any rough date in mind as to when flipbooks will go live, or into public beta?

Dude, I’ve had this in my head for like 2 years now.

Excited for this, any news on when it might be enabled?

Yep, flipbooks are spritesheet particles, sadly when they tried implementing them it caused an issue with beams visibility, but that was months ago, and hopefully it is released soon.

Will they add flipbooks for meshes as well? Will definitely be helpful.

How about the maximum decal size problem, wouldn’t that affect spritesheet’s quality?
1 Like
It would, but there’s nothing we can do about it since the decal size needs to stay consistent. Your only options would probably just be choosing to use smaller frame count sheets, like 2x2s or 4x4s
Good morning / Good evening @JaapSuter,

Here is the Recommended section for this topic:
And here’s a more appropriate title :
Sharing My Particle Emitters
Hoping to have helped you.

Roblox is slowly becoming unity. Oh No
Jokes aside, that is REALLY cool and brings so much possibilities!
Also, any context on how this will work? I’m kinda curious, will it be like the StudsPerTile property for textures but pixels?
Makes sense, thank you for letting me know.

Community Resources is not as appropriate, as nothing is being released in this case; only ‘teased’. #help-and-feedback:creations-feedback would be most relevant.

Hey, any update on this? Apparently the 510 update was skipped.

It just went live… Particle Flipbook Demo - Roblox
There’ll be an official announcement after the weekend; with more details, a tutorial, and most importantly; some background information on the 2x2, 4x4, 8x8 limitations, and the 1024x1024 texture-size constraint (which I’m sure many creators will be slightly disappointed by).
But I figure I’d share this news here today, since I really appreciate all the patience you’ve had so far, and I still feel bad for screwing up over Christmas and letting the release date slip because of a silly bug.
My hope is that, despite the limitations of flipbooks in their current form, most creators will agree that this still gets us 80% of the flipbook bang-for-buck, and that we’ll see some cool new use-cases for particle emitters.
Feel free to PM me with any questions, I’ll monitor this thread as well. But like I said, the official announcement and documentation is coming next week.
Cheers,
Jaap Suter
