so... what is this used for? i do paintings and pixelart, and i can see a dither brush in aseprite (that doesn't require pen pressure) useful, but what is the point in this?
Dither brush did not exist before in asesprite, in fact the creator of asesprite commented about this project when it was released, and it was probably the reason he added the dither brush. Also not everyone uses asesprite, and not all pixel apps have something similar.
i get that (and people wanted dither in aseprite day one cause graphics gale had it). but i'm asking what can your tool do? like it just makes little squares of gradients right? how does one use that to do anything?
It requires a bit of creativity, you generate a dither pattern here, then export it as separate layer to Photoshop or whatever, and delete the parts you don't need.
ok. thank you. just trying to figure that part out. it would be nice if aseprite had a dither brush that did not need pressure sensitivity to work. hint hint, nudge nudge, maybe think about making an aseprite plugin? ha ha.
