Thank you so much! We're super excited for the Battle update and we're still working through some of the technical hurdles with the extension of the animation list and how it's managed through multiple sheets now but we're hoping to get it released sometime next month in June!

We have thought about a Patreon or something similar but honestly we weren't sure how best to go about it. We decided to make a Kofi page in the meantime to keep it as simple as possible if you're interested! Thanks for the suggestion and the overwhelming support!

That’s so cool! Super excited to see the Steam page!

Thanks for letting us know! And yes anything to do with the head bug please report if you’re able to replicate and I’ll try as well!

Hi! Someone in the community recommended this tool to restructure the sheets: 

https://github.com/quxios/QSpriteEditor

I will also research this to see if we can add something specific for paper RPG maker in the future

We don't have a way right now to import the whole creator into a game, but it's something we've thought about as a Godot plugin or something down the road! If you buy the creator it does come with all the raw assets so if you wanted to you could use those assets to make your own creator. Otherwise the tool export sprite sheets you can export to put into a game 

Thanks for the comment! I'll add this suggestion to our backlog for the creator to see if we can find a good solution. In the meantime I would recommend opening the sprite sheets in a program like Aseprite and editing them to the frame configuration you need

We tried for months to make the process entirely internal to the program and in the end it honestly made it more complicated and harder to use. This solution currently is a hybrid approach that I think still gets at the heart of the previous sentiment. The manifest file that gets created is entirely optional and is pre-scaffolded. There also is no additional coding or logic the user needs to worry about. Right now the only purpose of this JSON file is to include custom labels to the new sprites. That being said I want feedback to be a big part of this process and we will iterate as needed!

Do you have any demos of projects using the Memao characters in Construct3? I'd love to see and make some videos about to promote the tool!

This is really cool!! Thanks for posting about it!

Love to see it! Game looks great!

Gotcha! So next to the lock icon for each sprite part there’s an eye for toggle visibility, in your screenshot it’s currently toggled to be hidden. We might need to revisit the design here to make it more apparent

Thanks! Do you mind showing an example?

Yes it should work for MV

Thanks! The best way is to use this Plugin that was made for our sprite exports!

Could you also provide some additional details about your windows laptop specs?

Sorry to hear you're having trouble! When you open the exe files does anything happen? Any command line windows, etc? We recently uploaded 32-bit version of the creator for windows, would you mind downloading that one and giving it a try?

We're actively working on it and we hope for it be ready to start using very soon! Right now I'm shooting for Jan 5th after the Itch.io Winter Sale!

Thanks for pointing this out! I think we have a solution for you. I uploaded a build called MemaoSpriteCreator-Windows-v1.1.6-32bit.zip that you can download. I believe the 32-bit version of the export won't require SSE4.2 and will hopefully work for you!

This is a great suggestion! The folder organization is currently planned but I’ll add the bulk export to our list as well

We’re actively working on this functionality now! We’re aiming for it to be done in a few weeks!

Yes you can export layers of the sprite separately 😁

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll add this now before our next update

The sprites themselves are 16x32 but each frame size is 48x48 to properly show assets (like tools, tall/wide hair, cloaks, etc).

The art is so cute!

Neat rotating effect!!

I really liked the cat meows and music :3

Nice job! I really like the camera work

What may work for you is using the eye toggle icon for each part you want hidden, that carries over to the export since you can chose what layers are shown

The Galv Plugin export is still available in the latest version :D

In my experience the MZ plugins work in MV as well

The update is released!

Yes thanks for pointing this out, it was definitely an oversight. I'm working on it now!

I think the issue is Memao Animator MZ is meant to work with the normal spritesheet export, not the RPG Galv Plugin Export. Try exporting your character with the default sprite sheet when using Memao Animator MZ

Hi! Which plugin are you using?

The tools are included!

The tool is built in Godot 4.5 using the Compatibility renderer, which is designed to support macOS 10.13 and later, including 10.13.6. I haven’t personally tested the tool on that exact version, so I can’t make a 100% guarantee, but we haven’t included any features that should break compatibility. The tool doesn’t rely on advanced shaders or GPU-heavy effects, so it should run fine as long as your system supports basic OpenGL 3.3. That said, if you try it and run into any issues on 10.13.6, Itch.io can provide a refund through their support system, no problem.

It works great on MacOS! 

That would be awesome!

Someone in the community made a plugin that supports our full spritesheets you can use in RPG Maker https://cloudthewolf.itch.io/memao-animator-mz 

Check out the tool and support them!
