Fort Apocalypse Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 (edited) I was having a hard time trying to figure out how to rotate my player definition 22.5 degrees and found this page that describes a decent way to rotate "pixel art" (in this case, player sprite definitions): http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/Rotate_Pixel_A...ithout_Blurring Basically the idea is to do the following (I used Paint Shop Pro, but other apps probably work just as well or better): 1 ) Create a canvas of the size of the player 2 ) Zoom in a lot 3 ) Use a 1 pixel paint brush to create the image (and make sure your foreground and background are right color before rotate) 4 ) Increase the size a lot (1000%) 5 ) Rotate it 6 ) Crop it (doesn't have to be same proportional, just crop it as tight as you can) 7 ) Resize it back to the original size (and zoom in) 8 ) Look at the picture and make the player sprite definition look like it This wasn't perfect, but was close enough. Note that playerpal 2 has 90 degree rotation ability already. It just doesn't have 22.5 and 45 degree rotation.

kisrael Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Heh, someone was asking if I could add something like this to my PlayerPal tool... it's tough w/ 8 pixels across, that's the main thing :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
