SpritesheetVisualizer 1.0 - Easy gifs for your games!

[Jumpathy (tyler)]

Introduction

I needed to make a gif and I was too stubborn to guess the image offsets and stuff so I made this plugin to do that for me with all of my future gif needs. It does require a bit of setup for the spritesheets but that’s really about it. Let’s get straight into it!

How does it work?

1. Insert a spritesheet and select it in studio, and then open the plugin

2. Hit the ‘select’ button on the plugin and wait for it to load the spritesheet
   2A. Allow access to http requests (for it to fetch the image size) if it’s your first time doing this
3. Count the rows on the x and y axis and input them into their respective boxes

4. Hit ‘Import’ to import the selected frame and a script that lets you go to the frame itself or hit ‘Import Player’ to import a player that will automatically play the animation with a script it inserts (change the ‘FPS’ variable in the script if needed)
   4A. Turn on ability to manage scripts if this is your first time importing it

Note: I made this look really complicated but it took less than 30 seconds to make that actually work.

How do I get spritesheets?

• Turn gif into sprite sheet

Too lazy to do that and just want to see how it works?

• Use the image: ‘rbxassetid://6120777545’ with 11y and 10x

Feature request / bugs?

I wrote this in like 3 hours so it’s probably going to have some bugs so please let me know! Also let me know if there’s any features you’d like to have.

Interesting. So with this plugin, we can put gifs into Studio for our games?

Yes, it was possible before with modules such as:

SpriteClip Sprite Sheet Animation Module

Introduction Sprite sheets can be very useful for bypassing Roblox’s limits regarding detailed GUI animations, but most creators tend to avoid them due to them being hard to set up. This module is my attempt to bypass this issue by packing this feature into a single easily manipulable class. The module itself only contains a single .new function which returns a SpriteClip object, to which any Instance with an “Image” property can be assigned. There is no limit to how many sprite sheets can be…

SimpleSprite | Create spritesheets for UIs easily!

This is still experimental and I have no idea how well it would work outside of localscripts, which is why I recommend you not to use them inside scripts. If you find any bugs, please either contact me immediately or post a report in this thread so I can give a public ETA over the bugs. This module allows you to handle spreadsheets easier than if you’d manually change the ImageRectOffset by yourself. Features in this handler: Allows you to add ‘names’ to images for easier access. Automatical…

I just made this module so you can get the image offsets easily and insert them to already be animated.

It’s not on sale lol, mind fixing it or is something wrong with it?

[Jumpathy (tyler)]

Fixed! I swear I had put it on sale.

so i can now make a whole movie into a spritesheet? (if i am able to make into a gif)

[Jumpathy (tyler)]

Uh, you’d probably have to split it. Roblox downscales large images to like 1024x1024 iirc.

Recently saw this post and thought I might give my input (I know it is old, but still). I have made a working clip of a movie. 2 actually. One is a 2 minute clip of Avengers Endgame which required 10K images. The other I did was one of Walt Disney’s original films which required around 2K images. The mass uploading of images for one is probably against the TOS and I am sure that the concept probably infringes on copyright laws so I do not recommend you do it. This does not exactly work anymore as ROBLOX purged most audio’s as they violate copyright. I had all these images uploaded to ROBLOX and sorted them through a giant table that would display the image on a decal. Didn’t hurt performance, would be buggy a little bit depending on WIFI strength. Here is the clip of one of the short movies I was able to produce within studio: Short Movie

my honest reaction bro. 10K images for 2 minutes, daym
