The “sheet” file is an image of all the icons/ui elements, everything here can be recolored or completely redrawn to your heart’s content! Then lastly the “theme” file is what you use to adjust colors, sizes, fonts, size of icons/ui elements, the location of icons/ui elements on the “sheet” file and their names, and I’m sure a lot more. The “sheet.aseprite-data” file is a file that aseprite generates you don’t need to mess with this at all I believe. The “package” file is sorta like project info about your theme.
The files are as follows: the “LICENSE” file is a text file that you don’t really need to mess with unless you’re planning on like, distributing/selling your theme probably. There you will make your own folder you can name it anything you wish tho I recommend adhering to the naming scheme that aseprite seems to have (“nameoftheme-theme”). The easiest way to do this is navigating to the Themes menu (Edit->Preferences->Themes), then you select “default” and click Open Folder.Ĭopy all the files then navigate to someplace accessible like documents/downloads/pictures. I am a dummy at any sort of coding so this is mostly just a “replace this number with a different number for this effect” sort of tutorial nothing too whacky.Īnyways, first to make your own theme we will simply make a copy of the default aseprite theme. You will need a program like Winrar to make Zip files. Themes don’t affect the colors used on the canvas such as the checkerboard indicating the transparent background and grid those can be adjusted in their own sections in the Preferences menu. In Aseprite Themes determine the look of the program using this tutorial you will be able to personalize aseprite for your style.
