hello.
How do I import a tileset in Pixelorama?
There’s still not enough information about the TileMap layer, and there aren’t even any YouTube tutorials yet. I couldn’t understand it just from the page below.
Sorry for the late reply 🙏
The tilesets (if you already have one available in the form of Sprite sheet) can be imported through File>Import. After import is successful, tilesets will appear in Project menu>Project properties.
When making a new TileMap layer, a dialog will appear, in this dialog, you will be given an option of
- Either using the tileset you imported.
- Making a new one from scratch.
If you want to use a different tileset later, then that can happen as well. (You can switch between which tileset is used by the layer at any time)
After creating the Tilemap Layer, a new panel will be visible
From here on you can check this tutorial, it's for Aseprite but pixelorama does the exact same thing, the exact same way😁.
Hope this helps 😄
No, multiple tilemap layers can share the same tileset. (Think of tileset as a kind of Palette). You can change the tilesets used by a layer at any time through layer properties (right click layer button to see layer menu and select properties)
"File > Open file" does all the importing. You don't need a separate option. After you open the image file, a dialog appears, it is here that you tell pixelorama what kind of import you want
