how to split/get images from spritesheet with non-uniform sprite dimensions

I want to split images from spritesheet with non-uniform sprite dimensions. What is the best way to split images this?

Here’s an example of non-uniform sprite dimensions.

Thanks.

You have to identify them before you go to code, manually. I’d try with this format.


//ObjectName x,  y,   width, height
Turt1        0   0   12        10
Turt2        60  0   12        16

Then write your code to get the appropriate regions.

You’ll probably want an x & y origin for each frame too.

Many open source tools exist for handling sprite sheets.
Try not to reinvent the wheel.

I just use my own packer

Then load the sprite via a loader I made.
Loader is in the /src folder.

create a method called getsprite(int x, int y , int bound x, int boundy); then have it use for loops like so for(int xx = 0;xx < boundx;xx++){for(int yy = 0; yy < boundy;yy++){ pix[xx][yy] = imagepix[xx+x][yy+y];}}
