Character Generator dev here! does the warning appear specifically on the Character Generator 2.0? Not any of the other folders? Also what does the warning say?
A question for RPG maker, how do I create characters? I tried making it in photoshop however the size gets all messed up when importing it. Any guide for it?
When I use the character spritesheets ( Character_Generator > Bodies > 48x48) in Godot, they don't line up exactly. I found out that there are extra spaces to the right and bottom of the images. I had to crop the character body images in an image editing software to in order to align them correctly.
My 48x48 resized image is 2688px X 1920px
2688px (width) : 48px * 56 Hframes
1920px (height): (30px vertical padding on top of characer's head+ 66 px height) * 20 Vframes.
I only cropped from the right side of the image, I also made it so the bottom of the image is touching the feet of the character body. After that they work perfectly fine with Godot.
It is just a bit annoying to do but easy enough with GIMP. Anyway they are so so cute and the included animations are so detailed too. The folder is massive. I really love and enjoy them and please keep up the good work!
there are so many files in this asset pack that every time i open the folder within my computer fan starts making a noise like it is single-handedly responsible for providing enough cool air to stave off the heat death of the universe. 10/10
How did you get the character sheets to work? They are not formatting correctly for me when I use hFrames and vFrames. they will either animate correctly but have artifacts (like shown) or they won't animate correctly at all.
If you did any kind of re-sizing could you please let me know what kind of edits were necessary?
Not sure what you mean with tested, but I’m using them in Godot and works fine. Just the individuel tileset (not the big one because that becomes slow)
Hi I was wondering regarding the user_interface_elements if there was a description of what some of the included UI emotes are supposed to be, I didn't see a description file included unless I missed it.
Such as this one? is this a biker perhaps? I have no idea, I am wildly guessing haha
That one in particular is a guard/cop as shown in the museum theme, tho sadly none of the emotes have any descriptions for what they actually are, you'll just have to guess
I'm wondering if there is a pickaxe/pickaxe animation somewhere that I'm just not seeing. I'm sorry--you probably get a million questions like this lol. I also know you are working on the farm update to Modern Exteriors, so maybe a pickaxe animation could be cool in that context? Just a thought. Keep up the great work!
Hello, Did any one notice that animated sprout 16x16 tileset missing? Or I just misplaced it? Can anyone suggest how to make 16x16 tile series out of 48x48? Like any special app that will resize those and put in correct order?
Hello, I've tried using the character generator after purchasing, but if I wear a big head on the character, it overlaps with the pixel character motion right next to me, so it's a little frustrating that the pixel doesn't cut properly. To prevent this, could you modify it so that pixels can be stored a little more spaced apart?
What do you mean by "Big head"? There's only one head size, bodies, eyes, and outfits don't change the size of the character at all, hairstyles may often make the character slightly bigger and some accessories may add some extra to the character but it should always fit a 16x32 cell size.
Edit: By big head I'm guessing you meant hat, correct? if so then I see what you're saying, some hairstyles don't go well together with hats, but I'm afraid if you want it fixed you'll have to edit them yourself as they're not being worked on anymore.
Hi Original! Some Hairstyles can't go well with some accessories, I'm sorry! To fix that I should have added a version of each hairstyle with each accessory, but it'd would have been madness both time-wise and efficiency-wise, because there would have been waaaay more files to save and manage
What I want is I need to use all pixel assets except the generator in my unity project, which assets do I need to download? I found several generators in the links, but I don't know which I need to use.
I'm not sure I fully understand, for most use cases you can just download the main Modern Interiors folder which contains everything in the Modern Interiors pack.
If you're using RPG Maker there's a separate folder there for you which has been modified to work with that engine specifically.
The Character Generator is a tool (Created by me) which makes creating characters easier, in the main Modern Interiors folder there are characters but they are all split into different parts which you need to manually combine together, the Character Generator is simply a software to help you create characters without having to go through that process.
Hope I understood your question correctly and was able to answer it, let me know if I miss understood the question.
For anyone having troubles importing larger sprite sheets into Unity, here is what worked for me for pixel perfect results.
Of course, when you import the image, you should select "Point (no filter)" for your "Filter Mode" and "None" for "Compression". But some of these files exceed the "Max Size" limit, which means the tiles still get compressed and you get some funny pixel behaviour where some of the pixels extend beyond the expected boundaries of your grid.
When importing, take note of the file's actual pixel dimension in the preview window. For me, I was working with one that is 1152x2640 but was showing 894x2048 in the preview window (maxxed out one side to 2048 which is the "Max Size" limit).
Here is the preview window in the inspector when you have the image selected:
I increased the Max Size to 4096 and the dimensions then matched the expected dimensions after I hit "apply".
When using this image in the pallette, everything is perfect (don't forget to slice it if you have not already).
Here is an example of before and after:
Notice the spilling over of pixels above? With max size too low, this means the actual individual tiles have been compressed to 37x37, and then expanded up to 48x48 causing the mess around the edges.
With the Max Size increased to 4096, the individual tiles are now the expected 48x48 so no messed up edges or artifacts. If you increase the size to 4096 and it's still broken, double check the dimensions of your source file and the preview to see if they match, and if they don't, increase your size again. Or in other words, ensure you Max Size is greater than the largest side of your source image.
By the way, you can change this setting on the fly too, so if you have already laid out your map, and have these artifacts, you don't need to lay out your map again. Just change the Max Size of your source image and the result will flow through to your output.
Has anyone found out a good way to slice the spritesheets in unity? I have tried grid by cell size 16x16, I have tried to slice it automatically but no matter what I do most sprites end up capturing a piece of the next sprite or catch some blank space. Can anyone assist? I love the tileset but this has been driving me nuts for weeks
Hi edmek! If you are trying to import the tilesets, I suggest you to use the single files, that way you won't have to slice things up! Anyways, there are a bunch of Unity devs who managed to do it in our Discord Server, if you need further help!
Thanks for the reply. It doesnt appear the roombuilder has singles files and that is what I need the most Id say. I don't have a discord unfortunately, any chance you could provide one of the solutions that have worked so far? Sorry for the hassle! I am having this trouble with both interior and exteriors but I am in a point in development where I really need to start building some environments to test how everything works
I just love your work. The simplistic yet very much alive assets are so cool! I'm planning to use all of your "Modern" packs in my next project (bought them all). Thanks for making this, I'm looking forward to anything new!
Thanks for the kind words fairlight! <3 Consider joining the discord server if you haven't already, this way you can show us your awesome project and ask for a feedback if needed!
Hello! I am making self-introduction homepage in a top-down rpg format using your assets. How can I give you a credit for your assets? Is it okay to include your itch.io profile link in html file via comment?

I want hospital map in RPG Maker MZ How?
Will these work in GameMaker or Godot? I keep seeing references to RPG maker files
I’m using them in a Godot file. I treat them like any other RPG tileset.
How did you get the character sheets to work? They are not formatting correctly for me when I use hFrames and vFrames. they will either animate correctly but have artifacts (like shown) or they won't animate correctly at all.
If you did any kind of re-sizing could you please let me know what kind of edits were necessary?
Hi Dr_Forth
I’m using the 32x32 player set. I see you have 58 Hframes, I have 56 Hframe.
Which file are you using?
Regards, Rick
I believe you might be using the raw body tiles. I’m using the character generator. Those sizes are a bit different.
Correct, I was using the 16x16 body files. I wanted to experiment with interchangeable hair/skin color, etc. in-game.
I guess the raw body sheets don't all align correctly? I'll give the character generator a try.
Thank you for the reply!
Has this been tested in any way for Godot?
Not sure what you mean with tested, but I’m using them in Godot and works fine. Just the individuel tileset (not the big one because that becomes slow)

I would like to get the package with the museum tileset, how do I get it?
Once you purchase the complete pack (Paying $1.50 or more) you get full access to every single theme including the Museum.
Amazing pack! thank you very much! Would love to see in up future updates bar/restaurants/arcade
I just bought it, is it possible to get just the sprites of the body, clothes, accesories, etc seperate.
Edit
Nvm found it
Hi, RPG maker MV is not recognizing the walls, am I missing something?

GIMP did the tick for me with resize.

Hi, I just bought four libs from you Modern interiors - RPG Tileset [16X16]
Modern exteriors - RPG Tileset [16X16] Modern User Interface - RPG asset pack [16x16] Modern Office - Revamped - RPG Tileset [16x16]
What I want is I need to use all pixel assets except the generator in my unity project, which assets do I need to download? I found several generators in the links, but I don't know which I need to use.

Ok this is pretty cool I have to admit ahahah
HI can i use youre Tilesets and stuff for my game if i put your'e name in the credits or do i need to buy a license?
Once you purchase the pack on Itch.io all you need is to give credit to LimeZu by attaching a link to his itch.io page
No License need to be bought if you paid for the full version of the assets (at least 1.5$ in this case)
Someone decided to stole your pack...
I have reported it, make sure you do too. There is a link at the bottom of their page.
Thanks for taking action guys <3
Look like it's been taken down!
anyone know where i to find this wall?? i cant find it
You can create that wall this way!

This was my problem hours ago! You have my thanks.
This is great info for anyone to know, thanks for sharing.
thank you very much
Amazing work I love all of this and huge inspiration for my work! Take care
Thanks a lot Peter! <3
Hi! I really love your content! Can I use it to make nsfw games?
Haven't heard that question here before lol
Yes you are allowed to!

I am having this trouble with both interior and exteriors but I am in a point in development where I really need to start building some environments to test how everything works
I just decided to stop being a baby and made a discord. So far so good. Thank you!
Hey Edmek, when importing characters you need to use the following settings.
Grid by Cell Size (in the drop down)
Pixel Size - X:16 Y:24
Offset - X:0 Y:8
Padding - X:0 Y:8
For the building items the following appears to work.
Grid by Cell Size (in the drop down)
Pixel Size - X:16 Y:16
I need to do some testing as I only downloaded this 5 minutes ago
I just love your work. The simplistic yet very much alive assets are so cool! I'm planning to use all of your "Modern" packs in my next project (bought them all). Thanks for making this, I'm looking forward to anything new!
Thanks for the kind words fairlight! <3
Consider joining the discord server if you haven't already, this way you can show us your awesome project and ask for a feedback if needed!
Already did, thanks (#600)!
Yeah once I've got the basics up I'll share my progress. Framework comes before GFX though :D.
ohhh you are the 600th!!
Great, looking forward to it! <3
This is a godsend and I feel terrible having not paid for it. Your work is awesome and really helped me out!
Are you using the free version?
Thanks Cloud!
Indeed, in case you are using the free version, it contains like 1% of the whole asset, so you know what to do next ;)
Hello! I am making self-introduction homepage in a top-down rpg format using your assets. How can I give you a credit for your assets? Is it okay to include your itch.io profile link in html file via comment?
Sure, just write somewhere accessible my itch.io link and you are super fine!
I've played a game where it looks like it's using your assets for everything. Your assets have a cute artstyle
Uh, Which game it was?
I can't use mine in RPG Maker MZ unfortunately
How come? There's a custom folder dedicated to that game engine for compatibility
Tell me more and I'll try to help you!
where are these created?
LimeZu uses a tool called Aseprite, it's a paid art software for creating pixel art https://www.aseprite.org/, it's also on steam BTW
All Aseprite yep!
will more character parts be implemented in the character generator ? Is it possible to create custom parts ? For import into the generator ?
More parts and animations will be added through future packs!
