Hi everybody, I'm looking for a tool which can cut (very) large images into small square tiles of a specific size. The tool should: be able to open large .png files (12Mb, 8192x2048 pixels) with transparency be able to cut these files into tiles sized 64x64 pixels be able to keep the transparency be able to name these tiles in a sensible fashion (ex. filename-column-row.png or similar) be free or open source software So far, I've been cutting sample tiles by hand in Paint Shop Pro, but I'm not going to cut more than a few tiles by hand, of course ImageSplitter (http://imagesplitter.net/) looked very cool initially, but it can't handle cutting more than 32x32 tiles. If anyone knows of such a tool, I'd really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks! Marlon
Right, you could do all these by creating ACTIONS in Photoshop but you need to crop the image manually to make it as square shape. so it will take a speed of click but then you need to save is as transparent manually again. Please let me know if you need help with this..
Hi Gregory, Thank you for your help! I've actually used the image splitter I linked to in my original post. After looking at the .png format on the internet, I realised that it was a lossless format. Basically I needed to end up with 128x32 tiles, so I cut the original file in 4 files, uploaded and cut these, after which I wrote a quick Delphi program to rename these files. Marlon
