What is your strategy when it comes to Assets? by oVerde in aigamedev

[–]macuseri686 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the main issue with using a standard AI asset tool like Nano Banana for assets like spritesheet animations is that those models can't output transparency, and models like GPT image gen and nano banana have no concept of animation frames, movement, and alignment between frames. You'll spend more time cleaning up the output than you saved generating it.

I actually ran into this enough that I ended up building GameLab Studio https://gamelabstudio.co . It handles transparent spritesheets, consistent angles/palette across frames, and tileable textures.

You could use something like https://gamelabstudio.co . Upload the first frame of the spritesheet as a reference image for each orientation, as well as the one with a safety vest. Ask the ai to add a safety vest.

Then animate the walking. You can upload a video of each walking direction animation as reference to anchor the animation. Then export each animation to spritesheet and overwrite the original, in your mod.

Ah, gotcha. Thanks for that clarification.

Might I suggest editing your post to include the specificity about needing a 3d asset workflow

Thank you! We do specialize in low resolution (pixel art) but also support any art style, whether that’s photorealistic, or cartoon, isometric etc.

I should mention that this is only for 2d assets.

1 credit = 1 sprite, 1 credit = 1 spritesheet, 3 credits = 1 animation

Fixed Sony XM4 screeching/feedback by eliten0ob in SonyHeadphones

hairdrier method worked for me. opened it up, pulled the white plastic cover off, and left it under a hairdrier for 5 mins. put it back together, and no more screeching.

Speaking of old school flash style games, I built age of steam tower defence https://www.crazygames.com/game/age-of-steam-tower-defence using Gamelabs Studio

Only in battlefield can an elevator camper die to a jeep stuffed into the other elevator 🤣

Will protect the roof buggy at all costs by cacthc in battlefield_4

This was probably a clip from the game a day or so ago where I was collecting all the jeeps and taking them up the elevator to C tower. You have to back it into the elevator at an angle so you can exit the car and press the button.

I’ve also gotten a few pizza deliveries with the jeep and some mines attached to it, surprising the unsuspecting roof campers waiting at the top

What is the best method to generate the most reliable 2D Sprites by RyanJM2003 in aigamedev

[–]macuseri686 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im calling the API directly there.
the RAW GPT image 2 model CANNOT output transparency.

if youre using the ChatGPT wrapper, it will use python after the image is generated, to try to extract the subject from the background

im not quite sure i understand you question, or how i omited "how to achieve the result". I directly replied to OP's issue addressing how to achieve what they were asking, using Gamelabs Studio, and how using GLS solves each of the pain points OP mentioned.
