Back to work - new features and future plans.


Hello!

I’ve returned to work on AutoTiler to add some features that will make it more flexible, universal and good looking (I know that it’s not the prettiest piece of software but I’m doing my best :) ).

First new feature is ability to disable sprites used in tileset. In example you can disable ground texture so you can use only walls to build your level.

I’ve also changed Image menu:


Now it is more clear and easier to use because you can see all images used in your tileset. As you can see in short instruction below the window, you just have to right click to hide given image on your tileset.

Second small but important addition is options menu where you can change preview background (because not everybody has to like defaut blue one :D ). Right now you will have four preinstalled backgrounds to choose.

That’s it for upcoming additions, let’s talk about the future of AutoTiler.

AutoTiler will soon be splitted in two editions: Basic and Pro edition.

Basic edition will contain features that it has right now: ability to load four images that are automatically assembled into tileset, saving and loading projects and so on. And it will always be free to use.

Pro edition on the other hand will be more expanded version. Here are some of the planned features that will be added:

  • enhanced tileset editing with ability to change all walls separately
  • new preview options to see how tileset will look like if used on level design
  • ability to load any image to use as preview background
  • more tileset options (transparency, color change)

First version of Pro edition will cost around 10$ and it will be on launch sale for some time.


If you want to support this software right now, you can make a donation through itch.io and you should do so if you are interested in Pro edition because every donator who will donate 5$ or more before release will receive free copy of AutoTiler Pro!

Both versions will be available in few weeks as I want to do some more tweaks and testing. I am also working on other projects so please be patient :)

See you soon!
