I just had a nice email back and forth with a guy named Scott. He was asking me about automatic atlas generation.

In my chapter for Advanced iPhone Projects, I include a small atlas of particles that I built using my atlas building tool. Along with the atlas image I also included a small .plist file that was autogenerated by my tool.

I didnt really have the time or page space to discuss the atlas builder in any detail and it was not really relevant to the discussion about particles, which is why there was no real mention of it in the chapter. However, Scott is the most recent in a long line of people who have asked me about my texture atlases and how to make them quickly and easily, so I will try and get my act together and clean up the atlas tool code and do a post about it before the end of the year.

Mostly I just wanted to say thanks to Scott for giving my chapter such high praise on his blog.

Cheers!
