Universal LPC Spritesheet Character Generator

Based on Universal LPC Spritesheet.

Try it out here.

The project you are looking now is an expansion on the above mentioned projects. I try to include all LPC created art up to now.

The Liberated Pixel Effort is a collaborative effort from a number of different great artists who helped produce sprites for the project. If you wish to use LPC sprites in your project, you will need to credit everyone who helped contribute to the LPC sprites you are using. See below for how to do this.

Licensing and Attribution (Credits)

All art distributed with this project (all images in the spritesheets subdirectory) is licensed under the GNU GPL 3.0 (text) and/or Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 (text) license(s). Some art may be available under other licenses too.

The file CREDITS.csv lists the authors, license(s), and links to the original URL(s), for each image in spritesheets. If you generate a sprite using this tool, you must credit all the authors. You can do this one of two ways:

• Distribute the entire CREDITS.csv file along with your project.
• Based on the layers you use, copy the appropriate rows from CREDITS.csv into a new file and distribute that file with your project.

Either way, make sure this credits file is accessible from within your game or app and can be reasonably discovered by users (for instance, show the information on the "Credits" screen directly, or provide a visible link). If you don't want to show the entire credits file directly, should include a statement like this on your credits screen:

We are working on allowing the generator to build a customized credits file for you.

Contributing

Important: all art submitted to this project must be available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 and/or the GNU GPL 3.0 licenses.

• By contributing original work to this project, you agree to license any orginal contributions made by you under both of these licenses.
• If you are submitting art that was made by (or derived from work made by) someone else, please be sure that you have the rights to distribute that art under one of the two licenses.

When adding files to the project, please add a row to CREDITS.csv for each file you add. Note the entire list of authors for that image, a URL for each piece of art from which this image is derived, and a list of licenses under which the art is available.

To add sheets to an existing category, add the sheets to the correct folder(s) in spritesheets/. In addition, locate the correct sheet_definition in sheet_definitions/, and add the name of your added sheet to the variants array.

To add a new category, add the sheets to the correct folder(s) in spritesheets/. In addition, create a json file in sheet_definitions/, and define the required properties. For example, you have created at this point:

body_robot.json

A category can exist of n-layers. For each layer, define the z-position the sheet needs to be drawn at. For an example of a multi-layered definition, refer here here.

Finally, in index.html, add your new category at the desired position by adding a div like this:

<div id="sheet_body_robot"></div>

Make sure the id starts with sheet_, and match the postfix with the name of your json, in this case body_robot.

Run

To run this project, just clone the repo and open index.html in your browser of choice.
