TexturePacker

TexturePacker is a super handy sprite sheet generation tool. It’s lightweight but still packs a punch! The user interface is easy to use, and there’s even a command line option that helps you batch process your images and create projects quickly.

Create High-Resolution Images

With TexturePacker, making high-resolution images is a breeze. You can also scale up existing ones to get your sprites ready for all kinds of devices. It really helps you keep everything looking sharp!

Manage Your Assets Easily

This app lets you throw in entire asset folders, and it will automatically sort your sprites into folders based on how you've set them up. You can even group animations and make Flash animations look like they’re in folders too!

Keep Your Folder Structure Intact

What’s cool is that while keeping the folder structure, TexturePacker uses sub-folder names in the final sprite names. Plus, it keeps an eye on changes in your asset folder and will rebuild the sprite sheets if anything changes.

Distribute Sprites Across Multiple Sheets

You can spread your sprites across several sheets when they won’t all fit into one texture. This feature gives you more flexibility when working with large projects.

Supports Many File Formats

The software supports tons of file formats! You can import PSD, SWF, PNG, TGA, JPG, BMP, and TIFF images easily. And when you’re done working on your project, exporting to formats like PNG, PVR, JPG, BMP, TGA, TIFF, PKM, WebP and PPM is just as simple.

Improve Rendering Time

A neat trick about TexturePacker is how it trims the borders of your sprites to get rid of those pesky transparent pixels. This helps improve rendering time and reduces texture size—what's not to love?

Command Line Utility for Updates

If you're a fan of command line tools (or need them for some reason), you're in luck! Once it's installed, you can edit your TPS files via the GUI or command line and let TexturePacker update all the sprite sheets during compile time.

Simplifying Sprite Sheet Creation

In short, this utility was built from scratch to make creating sprite sheets faster—and it does just that! With its solid features and smooth integration into your development workflow through built-in command-line support, TexturePacker really shines as a tool!
