Using this Repo

When pulling down the repo, develop is the latest branch, master is stable. If you're using in conjunction with poScene, make sure you're on poScene v2. If you're on poScene v1, you can check out the v1.0 tag. If you're on an old project with Cinder 0.8.6, you can checkout the v0.8.6 tag.

Using the Block

The block consists of two classes:

• Spritesheet: parses and keeps track of the frame data
• SpritesheetAnimation: provides control for frame playback

Tested on OS X Yosemite and Windows 8.

Features

• Supports spritesheets created with TexturePacker
• JSON (Array), XML (generic) data formats from within TexturePacker
• Multipacked textures
• Play, pause, stop, loop, reverse animation
• Set animation frame rate
• Get signal when animation has finished playing

Currently doesn't support rotated sprites.

Samples

• SpritesheetFrame: draws a spritesheet frame based on mouse position
• SpritesheetAnimation: animates spritesheet frames across the app window

Getting started

To draw a specific frame from the spritesheet:

gl::TextureRef texture = gl::Texture::create(loadImage(loadAsset("goblin.png")));
JsonTree json = JsonTree(loadAsset("goblin.json"));
	
mSpritesheet = po::Spritesheet::create(texture, json);

//	draw frame by number
mSpritesheet->drawFrame(6);

// frame by source filename
mSpritesheet->drawFrame("0031.png");

To animate the spritesheet:

gl::TextureRef texture = gl::Texture::create(loadImage(loadAsset("charge.png")));
JsonTree json = JsonTree(loadAsset("charge.json"));
	
mSpritesheet = po::Spritesheet::create(texture, json);
mSpritesheetAnimation = po::SpritesheetAnimation::create(mSpritesheet);
mSpritesheetAnimation->play();
