# Sprite Sheet Filenames

About sprite sheet formatting, and the prefixes

Sometimes some sprite sheet have special character associated in the file name, which changes it's function.

Sprites are set by the **top-left corner** of the sprite. Meaning larger sprites will overlap to the bottom-right tiles.

## Table Summary

<table><thead><tr><th width="96">Char</th><th width="162">Example</th><th width="339">Description</th><th>Omori Use Case</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td></td><td>name.png</td><td><p>Standard regular sprite sheet.

## Examples

Here's some example sprite used in actual game, with context.

<div><figure><img src="https://1531178822-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FwI4drJ7siZz9jLJbyGwT%2Fuploads%2F3rJl6KyKN20yjM2Cp1oN%2F%5BSF%5DSW_Hole.png?alt=media&amp;token=8dfcf891-a040-43ec-ad23-61a060a0a734" alt="" width="176"><figcaption><p>[SF]SW_Hole.png<br>This hole is a single large sprite<br>Appears in Sweetheart Castle.</p></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="https://1531178822-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FwI4drJ7siZz9jLJbyGwT%2Fuploads%2FYxCWTdKu9uxyxQaNePuN%2F!objects_fa_doors.png?alt=media&amp;token=58896412-b338-4553-a5cc-01f6f922a580" alt="" width="192"><figcaption><p>!objects_fa_doors.png<br>! removes the offset, good for doors.<br>Note that the doors are 2 tiles tall as well,<br>as it is slightly taller than 1 tile.</p></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="https://1531178822-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FwI4drJ7siZz9jLJbyGwT%2Fuploads%2FboUPUOPkFXEbbJ3g9QjI%2F%24FA_OMORI_RUN%25(8).png?alt=media&amp;token=a096638f-b2aa-47f1-b1f8-167ba6beeb37" alt=""><figcaption><p>$FA_OMORI_RUN%(8).png<br>This is a running sprite, $ sign tells it's single character,<br>%(8) tells there are 8 frame horizontal.</p></figcaption></figure></div>

{% hint style="info" %}
In some sprite you might notice some have a combination of multiple things in the same area. This is likely that the frames are still or hard set to specific frames, being set in RPGMV. By default RPGMV will go by 3x4 set treating like characters.
