Icon Generator – Animation Posing

Icon Generator - Animation Posing

Generate high-quality 2D icons from your 3D models and prefabs including Animation Poses in seconds!

Stop wasting hours manually setting up scenes, cameras and lights just to create inventory icons in T-Pose. This Icon Generator is a powerful, all-in-one editor tool designed to automate and perfect your Icons.

Whether you need a single perfectly lit weapon icon or want to batch generate an entire folder of 100+ animated characters as icons, this tool handles it effortlessly, all without leaving the Unity Editor.

STANDOUT FEATURES

• Animation Pose Extraction

Want a dynamic action pose instead of a boring T-Pose? Assign an Animation Clip (works with Humanoid & Generic rigs) and adjust the timeline slider to freeze the perfect frame for your icon.

• Built-In Image Effects (No Photoshop Needed)

Add Outlines (with adjustable color and pixel thickness) and Drop Shadows (with custom offsets and opacity) directly through our built-in post-processing. Works seamlessly on transparent backgrounds.

• Interactive Live Preview

Click, drag, and scroll directly inside the live preview window to intuitively rotate and zoom your icon object. See every lighting tweak and effect update in real-time.

• Precision Framing & Transforms

Manually fine-tune the exact X/Y/Z rotation, object scale, and camera positional offset. Easily frame off-center weapons or specifically scale down oversized models to fit your UI slots perfectly.

• Custom Dual-Light Studio

You get full, independent control over a Main Directional Light and a Fill Light. Tweak their colors, intensities, and 3D rotations directly in the tool to make your assets look their absolute best.

• Smart Batch Processing & Auto-Padding

Add entire folders of models with one click. The "Auto-Padding" feature automatically calculates the perfect margins for each item, ensuring consistent framing across all your batch-rendered icons, regardless of their original 3D scale.

• Profile Management System

Need a dark, moody lighting setup for weapons, but a bright, orthographic setup for potions? Save your complete camera, lighting, and effect settings as a .json profile and switch between styles instantly.

FULL FEATURE LIST

• Batch Processing System: Import individual prefabs/models or entire folders and render them sequentially with a single click.
• Interactive Editor GUI: Live preview window (drag to rotate, scroll wheel to zoom).
• Animation Frame Extraction: Freeze and capture specific frames of an .anim clip. Fully compatible with both Humanoid and Generic rigs.
• Dynamic Auto-Padding: Ensure objects are perfectly centered and never clip the image edges.

• Advanced Camera Controls: Supports both Orthographic and Perspective projection modes with adjustable Field of View (FOV) and positional offsets.
• Custom Studio Lighting: Independent controls for Main Directional Light and Fill Light (Color, Intensity, 3D Rotation).
• Profile Serialization: Save and load complete tool configurations (transforms, lighting, post-processing, export settings) as .json files via JsonUtility.
• Automated Asset Import: Automatically triggers the TextureImporter to configure the saved .png files as 2D Sprites with correct transparency and user-defined Filter Modes (Point, Bilinear, Trilinear).
• Resolution Support: Generates ARGB32 PNGs in customizable square resolutions ranging from 64x64 up to 2048x2048 pixels.
