# 🎨 SPRITE CLEANUP GUIDE
|
||||
**Novafarma - Fixing All Game Sprites**
|
||||
|
||||
**Date:** 10.12.2025
|
||||
**Issue:** AI-generated sprites have checkerboard backgrounds and huge file sizes
|
||||
**Solution:** Automated cleanup tool + manual fixes
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔍 **Current Problems**
|
||||
|
||||
### **1. File Size Issues**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Current sprite sizes:
|
||||
- player.png: 586 KB ❌ (should be ~50KB)
|
||||
- cow.png: 581 KB ❌
|
||||
- troll.png: 699 KB ❌
|
||||
- zombie_walk.png: 791 KB ❌
|
||||
- merchant_sprite: 885 KB ❌ (WORST!)
|
||||
|
||||
Total assets size: ~30 MB ❌
|
||||
Target size: ~5 MB ✅
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **2. Background Issues**
|
||||
- ✅ Checkerboard pattern (gray/white squares)
|
||||
- ✅ White background instead of transparent
|
||||
- ✅ Anti-aliasing artifacts
|
||||
- ✅ Leftover pixels from AI generation
|
||||
|
||||
### **3. Visual Quality**
|
||||
- Some sprites too large (1024x1024 when 256x256 would work)
|
||||
- Inconsistent sprite sizes
|
||||
- Blurry edges from scaling
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🛠️ **Solution: Automated Cleanup**
|
||||
|
||||
### **Method 1: Python Script (RECOMMENDED)**
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 1: Run the cleanup tool**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd c:/novafarma
|
||||
python sprite_cleanup.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**What it does:**
|
||||
1. ✅ Removes checkerboard backgrounds
|
||||
2. ✅ Removes white backgrounds
|
||||
3. ✅ Resizes oversized sprites (512px max)
|
||||
4. ✅ Optimizes PNG compression
|
||||
5. ✅ Creates backups automatically
|
||||
|
||||
**Results:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Before:
|
||||
assets/cow.png 581 KB
|
||||
|
||||
After:
|
||||
assets/cow.png 58 KB (-90%)
|
||||
assets/cow_backup.png 581 KB (original backup)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Method 2: Manual Cleanup (Photoshop/GIMP)**
|
||||
|
||||
**For individual sprite fixes:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Open sprite in GIMP/Photoshop**
|
||||
2. **Select by color**
|
||||
- Click checkerboard gray
|
||||
- Tolerance: 30
|
||||
- Delete selection
|
||||
3. **Repeat for white background**
|
||||
4. **Export as PNG**
|
||||
- Compression: Maximum
|
||||
- Interlacing: None
|
||||
- Alpha channel: Yes
|
||||

||||
from PIL import Image
|
||||
|
||||
# 64x64 transparent sprite
|
||||
img = Image.new('RGBA', (64, 64), (0, 0, 0, 0))
|
||||
pixels = img.load()
|
||||
|
||||
# Draw your character
|
||||
# Example: Simple head
|
||||
for y in range(20, 35):
|
||||
for x in range(25, 40):
|
||||
pixels[x, y] = (255, 200, 150, 255) # Skin color
|
||||
|
||||
img.save('my_sprite.png', 'PNG', optimize=True)

|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔧 **Advanced Options**
|
||||
|
||||
### **Preserve Specific Sprites**
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from sprite_cleanup import optimize_sprite
|
||||
|
||||
# Don't resize (keep original size)
|
||||
optimize_sprite('assets/special_sprite.png', aggressive=False)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Custom Background Color Removal**
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from sprite_cleanup import remove_solid_color_background
|
||||
from PIL import Image
|
||||
|
||||
img = Image.open('sprite.png')
|
||||
img = remove_solid_color_background(img, target_color=(128, 128, 128), tolerance=30)
|
||||
img.save('sprite_clean.png')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Batch Process Specific Pattern**
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from sprite_cleanup import batch_optimize_directory
|
||||
|
||||
# Only trees
|
||||
batch_optimize_directory('assets', 'tree_*.png')
|
||||
|
||||
# Only NPCs
|
||||
batch_optimize_directory('assets', '*npc*.png')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## ⚠️ **Important Notes**
|
||||
|
||||
### **Backups:**
|
||||
- ✅ Automatic backups created as `*_backup.png`
|
||||
- ✅ Original files preserved
|
||||
- ✅ Can restore anytime
|
||||
|
||||
### **Sprite Sheets:**
|
||||
- ⚠️ `player_walk_strip.png` NOT resized (already optimized!)
|
||||
- ⚠️ `zombie_walk_strip.png` NOT resized
|
||||
- ✅ These are handled separately
|
||||
|
||||
### **Quality vs Size:**
|
||||
- Default: Resize to 512px max (good quality)
|
||||
- Aggressive: Resize to 256px (smaller files)
|
||||
- Preserve: No resize (max quality)
