Hey guys,
I installed on 2.8.0 (current stable, not beta anymore), after renaming-zipping the folder but I don't get the 3 icons (Fill, Paint, Build) in the toolbar, it starts at "Flip"

Good news! I've finished porting all features to blender 2.8, except decal layers, and since it has become usable now, I've uploaded a beta release here:
https://github.com/ologon/Sprytile/releases
To install the beta, grab the zip file from that page and install it from the preferences -> addons panel as usual.
Here's what changed in the blender 2.8 version:
The sprytile panel is now located in the new panel section, which is hidden by default.
To show it click on the small arrow in the top left corner of the 3D view:

Then select "Sprytile"

Blender 2.8 default viewport settings are not optimal for pixel art, specifically you may notice texture jittering when moving the camera. (This is caused by eevee's temporal anti-aliasing filter) Moreover, blender viewport employs filmic color correction by default, which will cause your unlit tiles to appear slightly brighter than the original image. To fix this issues, select the newly added "Sprytile Utilities" -> "Setup Pixel Viewport". I recommend doing this once before starting to work with sprytile.

Sprytile tools are now located in the toolbar on the right. They will show up once you enter edit mode:

You can use the snap tool by holding "S" while the build tool is active as usual, and the tile picker by holding left Alt while any sprytile tool is active.
The normal tool is not a separate icon , instead it can now be used by holding "N" while the build tool is active.
Everything else is pretty much the same as it was in 2.7.
The beta hasn't been tested throughly, so crashes/errors may occur while using it. Let me know if you encounter any problem, and be sure to save often just in case :)
First thank you very much for porting this to blender 2.8
Next, I tried to use but it crashs so quickly and randomly I can't tell you what is going wrong :/
Do you have a version with some try/catch everywhere writing the errors into a file or at least in the console ?
Or tell me how can I help you to make this version more stable, I would like to help.
Hi LuDK,
Thanks! I've been using it for a while and it appears to work just fine in my case. Are you using the latest beta? (Beta6)
If you are already using the latest beta, open the windows command prompt and start blender from there (by typing for example "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender\blender.exe" then enter) . When sprytile/blender crashes the error causing the crash should remain in the command prompt. Can you tell me what you are getting? (Also knowing when it happens would be helpful)
Wow crashed again when I tried to Ctrl + Z:

Hi LuDK!
As in 2.7, to delete a tileset you have to first delete its material. Find the tileset material in the material panel and press the "X" button while holding shift, then save your blend file and reopen it:

Blender will delete the material and it should show up as "Invalid Data" in the tileset list. Sprytile will eventually delete it for you when you add new tilesets, but to delete it right away click on the down arrow icon and choose "Validate Grids":

Regarding the view not showing, it usually means you are working on an object which currently has a different tileset than the one selected.
Hope that helps! :)
All seems good, no more crash, nice job !!!

Made a couple changes to Ologon's 2.8 port of Sprytile. Was experiencing some issues with holding 'S' and 'N' while using my laptop and trackpad. The shortcut for snapping the cursor is "Left Alt + left click", and the shortcut for selecting an off-axis work plane is "ctrl+alt left click."
Also rebound tile rotation and flipping to 1,2,3,4

You can also remove the whitening effect when in edit mode, but going under the Preferences > Themes > 3D View > Face, and change the second color alpha to 0
Has anyone tried this on version 2.81 of blender? I get a few errors every time I try to load a tileset.

The 2.8 port is compatible with the latest blender version (2.81a).
Judging from the error log, it looks like you are using a different version from the latest beta. Uninstall any old sprytile from the plugins menu (make also sure there's no sprytile folder left in C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\2.81\scripts\addons) and try installing the latest zip from this page: https://github.com/ologon/Sprytile/releases ( currently sprytile_2.8_beta8.zip)
I've been asked this quite a bit so I thought I would leave a little guide here:
Sprytile displays all the tilesets you currently have added, even those the object you are working on doesn't have a material for. If that is the case, the tile selection UI will not show up (In 2.7 it would just show a blank image). To bring it back you can either:
1) Add the tileset again to the selected object with "Add Tileset" as usual (This will create a duplicate)
2) To reuse the existing tileset, go to the material panel with your object selected, add a new material and set it to the tileset you are trying to use:
(Here for example I'm adding terrain_tileset to the object)

When you reselect the tileset, the tile selection UI will show up.
For those having problems. It looks like the last error message means you are on 2.82. Just go download blender 2.80 (like the heading says!) and this release works fine. You don't need 2.82 now if your workflow is only this. Chill and let the team work on maintaining this plugin through the updates.
Download 2.80 from blender's archive here: https://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.80/
Install per the instructions at the beginning of this thread.
Works just fine!
I've tried using the latest blender version (2.82a) but did not encounter any issue. Make sure you are using the latest version of the plugin (currently: https://github.com/ologon/Sprytile/releases/download/2.8-beta9/sprytile_2.8_beta...)
Hey there quick question, I was wondering if you can still use the scroll wheel to interact with the snap tool like in the older versions. I just tested it out myself and it doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure if theres maybe a new hotkey for moving the snap tool using the scroll wheel like in older versions.
