Thanks to this tutorial i decided to make my own sprites and draw my entire game myself! I’m much happier working on it now
I'm so glad you are finding it useful! :D I'm editing another one now. The dust has settled from how busy I've been lately, so expect more. :D
I got a notification that someone asked a question on here, wondering about how to make rectangle selection sizes. I can't see the comment here, but will answer the question anyways. As long as you have a 3x4, or 12x8 arraignment it will select square or rectangle shapes. The engine divides your sprite sheet evenly by the number of rows and columns. It will divide a full sprite sheet by 12 columns and 8 rows, and a single sprite sheet (with a $ in the file name) by 3 columns and 4 rows evenly.
The ice gun was a cool idea. Also, the video was helpful, thanks.
omg I've been looking for EXACTLY THIS! Thank you sooo much for the tutorial and for the template
You're welcome :D

I still dont get it. How do I make a sprite larger than 48x48? You're not providing instructions, youre provdiing theory
Thank you!! This was amazingly helpful.
Liked and subbed
you're the only person i could find that talked about long sprites instead of tall ones. THANK YOU. I was just trying to make a 2 tile wide flame OTL
Update: my flame still isn't centering OTL
It still shows up as one tile
@@OmniverousLawnClippings What does OTL mean?
@Vanessa Walsh it's a thing based back in anime fandoms, meant to imitate someone on their hands and knees
@@OmniverousLawnClippings Over The Line?
@@VanNessy97 Google 'OTL anime' and you'll see what I mean. I'd link but yt don't like that
Thanks ! Have a good day.
I was asking about this a few weeks ago. I'm glad to see this request come true!
I'm glad you can use it! :D
this was very helpful thank you
Awesome work tea! -Nikorasu
Thank you!
Thanks man! I wanna do a pre-rendered 90s look aided by my Blender experience. I haven’t bought RPGM yet because I wanted to make sure I could achieve the look I want before dropping like $70 on one of them.
Hhhh thanks so much for this. One time I made a sprite for someone but ended up making the canvas the wrong size, so he had to fix it! Pff
thank you for this tutorial it very helpfull
i have other question how to do my own SV battler ?
(if i create big size character he will need big size SV )
Check it out, I covered that already :)

Thanks T it’s easy to understand your video.
I’ve achieved most of it already but I have had a few issues with alignment and clipping.
Is that just caused from exceeding the tile space and alignment variations within them ?.
Yeah, each section has to be exactly the same size and the images inside of those sections have to be aligned consistently down to the pixel or it won't look right.
@@teasjams6895 yep I’ve had that problem. But dealing with it is where you learn.
Thanks I’m onto my 3rd custom larger sprite now. 👍
Hey I know you haven't uploaded in a while but is there anyway you could do a full tutorial on making sprite sheets in gimp. Like importing the individual sprites and arranging them into the sheets? I can't find anything on RUclips or elsewhere showing a full guide. If not I completely understand! Thank you so much I hope your doing good ❤
Hey your tutorials sounds really simple , but my only program i used was Paint , this fast tutorial in a new program is very hard for me . I need to learn this option because in the "Svanimated" plugin dont works the normal main characters...
I'm not familiar with that plugin
What if I want to make a party but with various sizes? I've always wondered if that's possible, and also thank you for the tutorial!
Absolutely. Each sprite sheet can be different sizes, they just have to be arraigned properly.
Hi I've been trying to make a working Mario sprite but it keeps adding two extra Mario's on the side, do you know how i can fix this?
Make sure you evenly space your sprites on the sheets according to the arrangement sown in the vid, 3x4 for a single sprite sheet and 12x8 for a full sprites sheet. Also, make sure if you are using a single sprite sheet to preface the file name with !.
hi, thanks for this tutorial, its amazing!
I only wish to ask one thing. Do you can put the picture in the video to download? thanks one more time :)
I added a link in the description. It's not intended to be used as a template, but is only for reference.
Is it possible to use this for creating large monster sprites?
I've been wanting to make larger creature sprites that roam the overworld and are taller than the player character. Is this possible?
hi there,
I have a same question and I search for it.
I found a video talking about it,
and the answer is yes!

You are using gimp right?

Hi! I was wondering what exactly does the Inanimate formatting do to the spritesheet and how it appears in-game.
It shifts it up a few pixels, so when you're standing in front of an inanimate object it doesn't look like you're stepping on it.
@@teasjams6895 Thanks! I'll try it out in a mo'!
A very intricate and detailed video!! However I am not able to replace and in game Character sprite sheet by replacing it with another of the same name, why? if I extract a characters sprite from the game file, then edit it and import it back, when I play the game it still shows the old one...as if the memory of it were never cleared or something!!
Are you sure you're not putting it in a backup project? The engine won't save the png in a cache or anything like that, so it has to be something else.
how can I change the size of the single square 48X48.
I try to explain
if I want a npc that is twice taller than the normal size, how I have to configure the box? and how the grid?
If you are talking about a single character sprite sheet, to make a character taller you just multiply the single character height you want by 4, if you are making an entire sheets for multiple npcs, you would multiply the single character height by 8. (For example, a single sprite sheet with an npc twice as tall: 48x2 = 96(height of npc), 96x4= 384(times 4 directions; up, down, right and left). So the height of your sprite sheet would total 384, and the width would remain the same (48x3=144) You sprite sheet would be 144x384.)
@@teasjams6895 ehi, thank you, you've been super. kind. I think I did not understand because I started really recently, but you've been more precise and available possible thanks again, a new member, I'll keep you updated
@@teasjams6895 If the height of my character is 41 and the width is 21 would that make my single sprite sheet 63x164?
Yes @@BostonianJake :)
I was trying to make a item for my game like just a plain item you would pick up. After you make the sprite How do you add the file to rpg maker I couldnt find the folder that has items.
Items that you use on a sprite sheet are in the img/characters folder.
Hey I think your asking about img\system this is where you would find your icon sets and other stuff that you would use when creating items
How did you get that ice animation and the sound?
This tutorial explains the ice gun ruclips.net/video/vqe8VhLtS64/видео.html
Note I said terrian tag during the tutorial when I should have said region id.
yes
How do you upload it in rpg maker, mv turned mine into a sliced sprite?🤣🤣
What about mack size sprites in battle?
You can use any size. As long as you use the same number or evenly space sprites configured the way the reference shows.
Good stuff, how large can I make a character sprite?
You can make it very very big. Now should you do that? Prrrrobibly not :D I'm sure however big you want to make it will work, but you have to consider how your character is going to interact with it's environment(the tilesets and collision.
@@teasjams6895 Thanks, is it possible to only have the bottom tiles of a character have collision detection?
@@Korgi_Polymer Not sure tbh, if it is (I bet it is) it would be via plugin.
Excuse me, but does this also work for RPG Maker VX Ace? (Sorry, I'm new to using this game maker.)
I don't think so. The only engine I've used is MV.
@@teasjams6895 Oh, ok. Thank you anyway.
@@alexandriaflinn7050 its the same but the sprite size or grid boxes are different size
Can you show how to make frozen water like in this video?
I might do that. :)
Here you go :D ruclips.net/video/vqe8VhLtS64/видео.html
