Texture dimensions error (spritesheet)

[CaptKiwi]

Hi Guys,

Could someone elaborate on what the following error message means :

 

"Texture Error: frame does not fit inside the base Texture dimensions [object Object]".

 

It happens when trying to use a spritesheet creator (like texturepacker) which uses default dimentions. If I manually make my own sheet, making sure the width and height dimensions fit the sprites, I don't get this error.

 

I'm using the following loader code : 

 

game.load.spritesheet('target', 'http://xxxxx/games/assets/popper/bullets/bulletsheet.png' 67, 67, 5);

 

Cheers!

If you're using Texture Packer you should really be using game.load.atlas and giving it the image + json data that TP generates. When you export from TP make sure you pick "json (hash)" format.

Thank you rich, I was successfully able to utilise game.load.atlas

Hi rich,

Did you mean to use "game.load.atlasJSONHash" for "json (hash) format" and "game.load.atlas" for "json (array) format"? I also looked at the examples and confirmed their use.

Yeah it's that way around, sorry.. that's what happens when you work all night, sleep for a few hours then work all day

Hi,

 

I've just encountered this error, but my TexturePacker stuff was all right, and the loading in Phaser was correct.

 

Turned out to be a cache problem. Make sure you clear your browser's cache before wasting more time checking your code.

 

 

or, as I do from now on, on my development version, add a random query to the url of all your resources:

var randomurl= '?r='+(Math.floor(Math.random()*999999));game.load.image('img', 'assets/image.png'+randomurl);game.load.spritesheet('sheet', 'assets/spritesheet.png'+randomurl, 64, 64);//etc..

cheers!

Use Chrome, open the dev tools window, click the settings cog, check "Disable cache (while DevTools is open)".

 

Then never worry about it ever again and F5 to your hearts content.
