Sprite Frames Unity

Developer Utility for dynamically merging mod sprites into existing game textures.

How it works

This mod hooks into Cocos2D's CCSpriteFrameCache::addSpriteFramesWithFile to intercept when mods load their .plist files. When a mod tries to load sprites from a subdirectory (like mod_name/spritesheet.plist), it:

1. Detects the target texture - Looks for the base game texture that should receive new sprites
2. Creates a render canvas - Uses CCRenderTexture to composite the original texture with mod sprites
3. Merges textures in real-time - Combines sprites while preserving original layout and quality
4. Updates sprite frame coordinates - Recalculates UV coordinates for the merged texture
5. Replaces texture data - Swaps the original texture with the merged version

Technical Benefits

• No file replacement - Original game files remain untouched
• Multiple mod support - Multiple mods can add sprites to the same texture
• Preserves quality - Maintains texture parameters and formats

For Mod Developers

Perfect for mods that need to add content to existing spritesheets like:

• Custom game objects in GJ_GameSheet or GJ_GameSheet02
• Additional UI elements in GJ_GameSheet03 (yea, there is batchnoded stuff too)

Add to your mod.json the dependencies:

"dependencies": {
	"user95401.sprite-frames-unity": ">=v1.0.0"
}

Live usage example on dialog trigger mod.

Note: end users need mods that utilize this system to see changes.
