Installation and Usage

1. Clone this repo to addons/godot-simplepsd in your project directory.
2. To make things work you have to build the C# source. If the Build button doesn't show up, please add another c# file somewhere, then press build.
3. Enable the plugin under Project->Project Settings->Plugin.
4. Any PSD files placed in the project folder should now be imported as images.
5. You can change the import settings for each file to disable Mip Maps and Premultiply Alpha.

Known limitations:

• Requires Mono build of Godot 4.
• Only supports 8-bits-per-channel.

Future improvements

• Support for higher bit depths.
