Backgrounds

Backgrounds are 320x256 pixels in size. Larger files will be accepted but will have their edges cropped to fit.

Speaker

A speaker’s portrait is 48x48 pixels in size. Spritesheets for a speaker should be multiples of 48 pixels to a side to ensure Chatty can sample frames properly.

Frames are counted in 48x48 pixel squares, starting from the top left and moving right and down the image. An example of frame numbering for a 144x144 pixel image is shown below.

Ui Atlas

The ui atlas contains all of the textures responsible for the speech box, choice event options, and other relevant ui. Overriding this texture lets you provide custom ui for speakers, for instance, to use the visuals of a different game for a character originating from said game.

The current Ui Atlas looks like this. It’s recommended you download and edit this file when creating your own atlas.
