Two new tools are available for AGK. They are also ideal for DB Pro, Dark GDK and any other package where you want to use sprites.

The first package is called SpriteMe. More details here: http://www.thegamecreators.com/?m=view_product&id=2301

The second package is called Model-2-Sprite. More details here: http://www.thegamecreators.com/?m=view_product&id=2302

Both of them achieve the same objective, but go about things in a different way and offer different features. If you're interested in both you can obtain a 25% discount (listed on both product pages).

Nice looking products there Mike

Well done hockeykid and matty! These will be very useful tools.

The site for SpriteMe has not description of the features.

For an example, which 3D file formats does it support?

just bought it - Great Tools, I was just thinking i needed something like this and wow there they are...

Thankyou again TGC

I just bought both of them yesterday I will be giving them a work out today. Verry Good Idea.

Is this better than SpriteWorks?

@Soul Reaper: Which file formats does SpriteMe imports?

spriteme loads .x and .dbo files.

Thanks for the info Rich.

Hmmm... So... if It can import .dbo files... Can it read map files from FPSC with light maps and so and make sprites from it? Would it be possible? Anyone've tried it?

Thanks

You can extract the universe.dbo file from a compiled FPSC game.

Where can I get more animation (.fpe) files for these products?

It is better than 3d max???

It is better than 3d max???

It's nothing at all like 3ds max. It loads 3D models and creates 'sprite-sheets' from the animation that is in the model.

Look up "Spritesheet" in google...
