@drawcall/flipbook

Use @drawcall/flipbook for lightweight Three.js billboard effects loaded from KTX2 sprite sheets. Get ready-to-use flipbook assets from @drawcall/market.

A pre-rendered sprite sheet is the right choice for art-directed effects — explosions, flames, magic, impacts — where it looks far better than code-built particles and costs almost nothing at runtime. For procedural, parametric bursts instead (sparks thrown along a surface normal, physics debris, a count/direction that varies per event), use the pooled particles. The two compose: a flipbook explosion plus a procedural debris burst reads better than either alone.

Install

pnpm add @drawcall/flipbook three

three is a peer dependency.
