[Solved] Default Sprite Size? (stoopid newbie question)

[Veniae]

I'm making a game with a default window size 800x600 pixels and I'm wondering about the size of the sprites. How big (in pixels) should they be to look normal in the game window? Or does RenPy automatically resize them to fit?

Thanks in advance, guys~ xD

It depends on how big your original sprite size is. You have to make sure that the actual size of the sprite is the size you need it to be in the game. There are ways to resize it in renpy, but I find it easier to make sure it's the right size in the first place.

yea, i was also curious about this question, I'm more used on drawing from feet to head so I do it in bigger sizes but i never really thought about how I'd crop and make it fit in the renpy screen O_O

I'd ask this question too when I was at the same level of new-ness XD.. and still .. we're at the same level XD...

anyway... it depends (also) on how many characters you'd fit into the screen... I remember.. argggh... link:

@choklitchan: Yeah, I supposed so. I want to resize them in PhotoShop before saving as .png and I have difficulties in determining what the "right size" is.

@OtomeWeekend: Whew, I'm glad I'm not the only one to wonder about that. And I understand you - it's the same as when you are used to drawing on a really big canvas (like thousands of pixels) and have to resize.

@curry nochi rice: Hahahah~ And thanks for the link. And I'm planning to fit maximum 3 characters on-screen at the same time... I wonder if 200x600 or something would be okay for a sprite size... Hmpf.

Seems like I managed to solve my problem. Thanks a bunch, guys~
