When creating the engine to our point and click game I hit a point where the fps dropped due to the images being rendered. Their size was large and mostly transparent pixels. TexturePacker was the tool that helped greatly reduce this problem. It trims whitespace for you and packs all the sprites into one image to load. What you end up with is just pure efficiency @CodeAndWeb

Just bought TexturePacker today and my god it's amazing! Found out it has native support for normal map packing as well.
So it places the normal maps in the same location and then auto creates a canvas texture in godot!
This will legit save weeks during development
Our first tutorial for Axmol Game Engine - a clone of cocos2-x V4: codeandweb.com/texturepacker…
Created a new tutorial about PNG compression. Works
great with @PixiJS and @phaser_
Convers lossy and lossless compression methods.

II found my ApplePen again after 2 days - in the oven. It had magnetically attached itself to the grill grate when I had put it down on the table... Fortunately, I had noticed before the ApplePen was cooked.

Bought @CodeAndWeb's Sprite Illuminator ages ago and finally tried it! Cool tool!
Tried automatic, then semi-auto (see quoted), then manual. Think I prefer manual (this one). Thoughts?
For @MindFeastGames #IndieDev #art
Lighting magic! 💡 Today Rupert tried an experiment of applying "normal maps" to one of our 2d characters. This is a proof-of-concept showing how moving a light source around can affect different parts of the image in different ways. Pretty cool..!

Since I know how much some positive Feedback can mean, I just had to share this: I just bought BabelEdit from @CodeAndWeb after using the 7 day trial for like 30 minutes because I immediately fell in love with it. It's just EXACTLY what I was looking for and works perfectly 😍

Sprite atlas of our english units, packed with TexturePacker by @CodeAndWeb . A very nice tool❗️

Found a super cool tool for #kitbashing 3D models😃
With TexturePacker3D from @codeandweb I reduced 11 texture sets (left) to a single 4k atlas (right), 85% reduction! 😍

I don't really understand #apple... I am completely against child pornography - but the CSAM scanning, what is it good for?
I don't see how this would have any use in reducing child porn. The scum switches to Android... and Apple monitors the innocent rest?

2. BabelEdit:
I used this app which is a paid solution, you pay once and get access to the app. They have a trial which I used to try the app. It is so cool and rich of features and exporting options.
Try it with the trial and see if you enjoy it

Updated our flutter translation tutorial to cover the newest release of Flutter and the intl package.
The tutorial also covers BabelEdit which makes it easy to work with ARB files.
Thanks to @gamua! @FlutterDev #flutterdev

shoutout to past me who was crazy enough to attempt a normal map with Live2D... [inspired by Denchi's tests with it] I still think its super cool but so much work holy hell.
Funny... I thought that the moai game engine @getmoai was dead. But it still seems to be maintained. Last change is from 2020...
Submitting another bug report for @gatsbyjs .... man this is frustrating. The update to v3 has become a real pain. It feels like nobody is doing regression tests...
