Bevy Texture Atlas Tools

Collection of tools for working with Bevy Texture Atlases.

Version 0.5

• Supports Bevy 0.8
• Added an example for TextureAtlasPaddedBuilder.

Version 0.4

• Supports Bevy 0.7

Version 0.3 Updates

• The heterogeneous texture atlas loader has been split into its own crate https://crates.io/crates/bevyheterogeneoustextureatlasloader
• Sprite merging now implemented with an extension trait MergeSpritesExt on TextureAtlas.
• versions <0.4 support Bevy 0.6

Features

• Merge sprites within an atlas.
• Merge multiple TextureAtlas s into a single larger TextureAtlas.
• Alternative TextureAtlasBuilder, TextureAtlasPaddedBuilder that automatically adds border padding to sprites.

Usage

To use this crate, add this line to the [dependencies] section of your project's Cargo.toml file: toml bevy_texture_atlas_tools = "0.5" #

Examples

Minimal example that builds a texture atlas with 8 x 8 padding around each sprite, run with:

cargo run --example padded_atlas

Notes

• Nothing seems to have changed wrt TextureAtlas in the Bevy 0.8 update, BTAT 0.5 just raises the Bevy version to 0.8. Added a TextureAtlasPaddedBuilder example as a sanity check and it all seems to work.

• For working with homogeneous tilesets, you should look at these crates:

  https://github.com/MrGVSV/bevy_tileset

  https://github.com/StarArawn/bevyecstilemap

  which are both really good with lots features.

• I'm not certain that there is a neeed for padding to fix texture bleeding issues any more.

  MSAA isn't required for most 2D games and turning it off fixes most issues. Do that by adding the following to your Bevy App:

  rust app.insert_resource(MSAA { samples: 1 }); You can also look into using texture arrays instead of atlases.

• If you do need help or have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me. I'm almost always available on the Bevy discord channel
