Thanks for providing information without wasting any time. Seriously, most tutorials these days waste 5 minutes without actually showing anything, and they don't even explain stuff that clearly. (or sometimes way too clearly, which wastes even more time) We need more channels like this.
These videos are hidden gems. first one I have found on the subject on UA-cam with updated versions and that is crystal clear. these combined with the information from the older videos from the brackeys channel is all one could ask for. thanks!
I love this, thank you so much. This is the most concise, efficient, and intelligent explanation I've been able to find. Your voice is also very soothing, while your diction is articulate, so its very pleasing to listen to and understand as well.
I've watched so many videos trying to wrap my head around the basics and trying different things, but this is the best video I've ever watched! Thank you!
This was the most straightforward tutorial for Tilemaps that I have found. I have been looking for a little while tonight. Thank you for this. Thank you so much!
Fantastic Video, for some reason I always forget how to create the tile maps, in this case Im coming back to Ol'Unit from messing with godot for a year or two, and again... couldnt remember, glad I found this channel, clear instruction, not digressing into other areas, and explained in a way that makes sense, eg. Always check the Active tile map. I remember always screwing that up, in previous projects.
Really helpful and very well explained, no tangents, straight to the point, loud and clear Aside from that, you kinda sound as if you were about to cry, you ok buddy?
@@bellywash6684 Ha interesting. I don't know how it works in the background, so if it depends on the used tiles or rather if Unity might have changed something. But that's what comments are for, so I am glad you told us about and it surely will help someone else as well :)
Really good tutorial, i'm just getting back to unity after a few years break, and hear the tilemap function was good instead of the Tiled program, so i found you, you now have a new sub :D
Just needed to know where the Tilemaps went in the newest Unity version and this popped up on Google. Subbed :) Und schön auch Deutsche in der Szene zu sehen :)
Hello, thank you for this nice Tutorial. Just started again with Unity..and oh my gosh..unity changed so much in this years. Hast du geplant noch mehrere Tutorials zu machen ? Würde mich freuen darüber. Hab gerade im Video gesehen, es gibt nun eine Perfect Pixel Camera :o. Greets Van~
Haha, great to hear. Yeah, I also had a couple of years paused between using Unity, was very confusing. There will definitely be more videos, currently I just need a bit more time for making those. Danke dir ;)
It won't allow me to drag my sprite (or the sprites individually) into the Tile Palette. Any idea why that might be happening? I created a rectangular palette in Tile Palette, but it just doesn't allow me to drag and drop.
Thank you :) Yes, actually this is a great idea. I was planning on doing some more tutorials about tilemaps and already have some code lying around with this functionality. So this should come in one of the next episodes
@@VelvaryGames That's excellent! Thank you for considering it and for the quick response :) Do you have a Patreon or anywhere you can direct me to help support?
@@jimkincaidz Oh wow, that's really generous of you, nice to hear :) Currently not, but I was planning on doing a Patreon and a Discord Server. Seems like I should focus more on this :D
Thank you for your comment :) Yeah, rotating is possible when you have selected a tile and want to draw. Unfortunately I just know the key for my qwertz-keyboard, there it's the ß, the key to the right of zero. I think it should be somewhere near there for other layouts. I hope this somehow helps :)
Thank you very much for this video. I am encountering a problem that after watching this video and reading the comments as well as other videos on tilemaps I still can't find the fix for... When I click a tile from the palette on the right to draw in the scene, it instead draws a smaller version of the tile. Its around 30% smaller than what the actual tile size should be and shows the background all around it. It's as if I had set a gap between all the tiles to begin with, but that is not the case. The tiles within the tile palette (on the right of my screen) are accurately sized with the tiles/squares, but when I move any of them to the scene its like they shrink. edit: after more video searching and messing around, changing the tilesheet image "Pixels Per Unit" in 'Inspector' from 100 to 53 brought it as close as possible to properly filling up the square. However this feels like a terrible solution. The problem may root from the size of the character I'm using? I set the grid cell size to .3 by .3 so it would properly work with my player/character model. Fixed: Made sure any images were set to pixel per unit to 16. Manually scaled my character/player till it looked right (which ended up being .5 x .5 x 1).
i do have a question if I where to make a small 2d game if I used free tile maps from a website and built my game up of that but created the story and basically the characters dialogue and everything else would I get in trouble for using the tile maps made by somebody else and or maybe added a few more designs to it
good tutorial but it shows the same as all the others. I now know how to use a tilemap collider 2D for the usual purposes but what about when you build an island and can't fall into the water? I then have a tilemap collider that stops me a long way from the water because 2 tilemaps overlap and the collider for the water sticks out onto the island. How do you do something like that?
@@alopmemes1964 Yeah, it's simple but a great feature. Thank you for pointing out that a separate tutorial is a good idea, so people can find it easier :)
Hello, I have a tile animation, but I would like to place it in a tilemap, I would like to do all this in code. But tilemap has only one function which is SetTile() which asks me for a TileBase, so the question, how can I convert my TileAnimatorData to TileBase?
i have her a problem. i create a tilemap called ground and secand tilemap called "kisten" what is your "top". When i put a square on the tilemap "kisten" like you in a green area than i cant see the square anymore.... can you tell me what i am doing wrong? it should look like at 4:36 but it doesnt :/

This tutorial felt like a breath of fresh air. To the point and exactly what I was looking for. Du erklärst wirklich großartig. :)
That sounds great, danke :)
Thank you dear, unfortunately lots of unity official study guides are outdated, gladly this vid came out to be very useful
This is very helpful to me as an artist, now I know how make sheets easier for the programmer to use! Thank you!!

very well made tutorial. helping me with my university final year capstone project. thank you for your work!

Aside from that, you kinda sound as if you were about to cry, you ok buddy?
thank you so much. I can't believe you don't have more subscribers.
4:30 Quick tip for people where the different layers aren't working. Put the tilemap renderer mode to Individual instead of Chunk.
Oh thank you for pointing this out. I also stumbled across this lately on an isometric map. Did you have those problems on a rectangular tilemap?
@@VelvaryGames Ye on the regutangular, I was trying to work with different layers but the tiles just wouldn't show up.

If you keep painting over your palette check the unclick the edit button in the Tile Palette.
Hey I really like your way of explaining && was delighted to see you have more tutorials
keep going:)
Thank you, I will :)
Thank you very much!

Great tut! thank you so much!
hi, how are you scrolling the values in the inspector 0:56
This makes making levels a lot easier, viele danke
such a helpful tutorial! thank you!
It won't allow me to drag my sprite (or the sprites individually) into the Tile Palette. Any idea why that might be happening? I created a rectangular palette in Tile Palette, but it just doesn't allow me to drag and drop.
explained exactly how it should have been. keep up the good work
u save my life bro
True Gem Indeed
Thank you :)
thank you! so much! i now can make my game!
Amazing video!
your voice is great,fall in evol with your voice
Really helpful video.
This is a really well done tutorial.
Thank you, subscribed!
Would you be able to do one on an in-game tilemap editor, like a level editor?
Thank you :)
Yes, actually this is a great idea. I was planning on doing some more tutorials about tilemaps and already have some code lying around with this functionality. So this should come in one of the next episodes

3:00 how can I rotate for example the log to be vertical?
Amazing helpfull video btw! Easy thumbs up!

Thank you soo much, you helped me a lot!
Thank you for this :D
good one🍹
good tutorial
THANK YOU SO MUCH :D
god damn thats a good tutorial.
When I place tiles in the tile palette, the order is messed up. How can I place them in the tile palette in the right order at once?
NICE VIDEO! This helped me a lot! Thank you so much
thank you so mutch your very underated
Thank you very much for the great content, keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for these videos. Any chance you plan to go into possibly doing procedurally generated maps utilizing rule tiles?
Thank you very much for this video. I am encountering a problem that after watching this video and reading the comments as well as other videos on tilemaps I still can't find the fix for...

THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO : ) , i was really in doubt about something, now i'm not lol
I think that sounds like a good result, glad it helped :)
The Drop tile/sprite/sprite texture does not pop up for me AT ALL.
Thanks!

Preciate it
you are amazing
5:20 is not working for my character movement in the tutorial where we move the character oddly it will not collide with tiles, need help.
Can you also animate tiles in a tilemap?
Yes, check out my video about Auto Tiling, this explains the setup and has a short part of where I show how you can do this.
@@VelvaryGames Oh nice! Thank youuu :D Because i want to animate a floating river but i thought you cannot animate in tilemaps xD
@@alopmemes1964 Yeah, it's simple but a great feature. Thank you for pointing out that a separate tutorial is a good idea, so people can find it easier :)
it worked but the tiles are super small do you know how to fix this?
During the sprite editor part the image is not showing up
awesome
i cant find any tutorial that tells me how to add the actual package please can u help
Question, how do I make it so every single sprite has a colider properly?
Reply best tutorial 👌
Thanks, so I won't need to install some useless tool!
thanks bro
Hello, I have a tile animation, but I would like to place it in a tilemap, I would like to do all this in code.
But tilemap has only one function which is SetTile() which asks me for a TileBase, so the question, how can I convert my TileAnimatorData to TileBase?
It will not let me click the create folder button what do I do
thanks dear
i have her a problem. i create a tilemap called ground and secand tilemap called "kisten" what is your "top". When i put a square on the tilemap "kisten" like you in a green area than i cant see the square anymore.... can you tell me what i am doing wrong? it should look like at 4:36 but it doesnt :/
how did you get that lighting effect?
ty 🙂
so what do you do at 0:34 when the grid overlay for the tiles doesn't appear?
