Files
One word before .tres says what a file is. Exports are plain PNG, WAV and Aseprite, or Godot's own SpriteFrames, TileSet and FontFile with a PNG beside them. None carry a mark.
| What it is | Ends in |
|---|---|
| A sprite, with its layers, frames and tags | .jcsprite |
| A tileset | .tiles.tres |
| A font | .font.tres |
| A sound | .sfx.tres |
| A song | .music.tres |
| A colour palette | .jcpalette |
| An instrument palette | .instruments.tres |
| The SpriteFrames written beside an exported sheet | .frames.tres |
| The TileSet written beside an exported tile sheet | .tileset.tres |
| The FontFile written beside a font's exported atlas | .fontfile.tres |
Limits
Where the Pixel tab warns, and where it refuses. The cel budget is what actually limits a document; the layer and frame caps only stop absurd shapes.
| Limit | Value |
|---|---|
| Pixels in one canvas before it warns | 262,144 |
| Longest side of a canvas | 16,384 |
| Layers in one document | 64 |
| Frames in one document | 512 |
| Decoded cel memory in one document, bytes | 67,108,864 |
| Colours in an imported GIMP palette | 1,024 |
