Why we like it

PSSG earns its place in the Superhive library by keeping the sprite sheet step inside Blender, covering both direct rendering and compiling pre-rendered image sequences.

What is Pro Sprite Sheet Generator?

Pro Sprite Sheet Generator (PSSG) is a Blender add-on for 2D game development that automates the process of turning animation frames into a sprite sheet. Rather than exporting each frame and stitching them together in another program, PSSG handles rendering and assembly inside Blender, integrating directly into the workflow.

The add-on offers two modes. Render Scene goes from a finished 3D animation to a completed sprite sheet in a single operation, handling both the rendering and the assembly without managing intermediate files. Image Sequence points PSSG at a folder of already-rendered frames and compiles those individual images into a single sprite sheet, ready to be imported into a game engine.

Recent updates added support for Blender 5, faster sprite sheet generation, a realtime progress bar and a cancel process button. The add-on works with the Cycles and Eevee render engines and is released under the GPL license. Documentation is included, and a demo video is available.

Who is Pro Sprite Sheet Generator best for?

Pro Sprite Sheet Generator is best for 2D game developers using Blender who need to turn character animations into sprite sheets.

How much does Pro Sprite Sheet Generator cost?

Pro Sprite Sheet Generator is completely free to download and use.

Frequently asked questions

What Blender versions does Pro Sprite Sheet Generator support?

Pro Sprite Sheet Generator supports Blender versions 4.0 through 5.0. A recent update added support for Blender 5 specifically, so the add-on covers the range across those releases. It works with the Cycles and Eevee render engines, so your sprite sheet output can come from either. If you are on a version within that range, the two modes—Render Scene and Image Sequence—are both available. For confirmation on the exact build you are running, check the developer's page.

How does the Render Scene mode differ from the Image Sequence mode in PSSG?

Pro Sprite Sheet Generator provides two modes for different starting points. Render Scene is the direct path: it takes a finished 3D animation and produces a completed sprite sheet in a single operation, handling both the rendering and the assembly without leaving intermediate files to manage. Image Sequence is for frames you already rendered—you point PSSG at the folder containing the image sequence, and it compiles those individual images into one organized sprite sheet ready to import into a game engine. Both modes are built into the add-on.

Is Pro Sprite Sheet Generator free to use?

Pro Sprite Sheet Generator is listed as free in this catalog and is released under the GPL license. Licensing terms can change, so for the most current details on pricing and distribution it is best to check the developer's page directly. The add-on also ships with documentation to help you get started, and a demo video is available if you want to see more before installing it into your Blender setup.
