Hey, guys I love this program, I just have one question about something that I had no intention on doing until I used this program. The game I am working on uses pixel art and this program does a really great job animating it. I happen to have switched one of my animations to the smooth sampling and the animation looks so smooth I am willing to convert all my battler sprites into this style. The only thing is that the first frame does not save in this style. Is there a way this program can save the entire pixel animation to smooth sampling from beginning to end even if its a single image?

Hey guys what if spriter would have rotating algorithm like this software? http://info.sonicretro.org/RotSprite Do you think it could be done? It preserves shapes perfectly, maybe if you would contact developer then he would share how he did it and it could be implemented in spriter so pixel art animating would be even better. Just look at examples: This is other program SolarStrings rotater which also rotates sprites preserving details and shapes + whats most important - source code is available for lookup and maybe create something similar http://wayofthepixel.net/index.php?topic=13052.0 In my opinion having something like solarstrings rotater as option to rotate sprites would be great, even if its not used in realtime during opengl preview but only when exporting.

Hi! I want to buy the PRO version but the gui looks pretty bad and complicated work with the program. the other problem is that the final version works very slow and also tried b11 version. the b9 version works well graphically but all have the problem gui. i've a macbook pro retina display Yosemite 10.10 I hope you can help me because I am very interested in the program

Post bugs for Spriter r2 here.

I have a character that I animated with bones that floats up and down. Midway, I want it to fade into a blurrier version of the sprites. So I was planning to overlap the character with the blurry sprites, attach them to the existing bones, and then animate the opacity to make them fade in/out. However, whenever I put in one of these new blurry sprites and keyframe it, it throws off the bezier curve for the entire project. Am I doing this incorrectly? I can provide my Spriter file if needed.

Hello! Love Spriter. I have a quick design/C2 question. Right now I have all my sprites/animations in one SCML file. That one file has my character, items, and backgrounds as different entities. If my sprite count gets very big though, does it matter if I'm still only using one SCML file for everything? Or is it better to create multiple SCML files and separate categories of sprites into them (like one for characters, one for items, etc.) and just create each when needed? I'm just wondering how it works from workflow/computer resources put of view. Thanks :)

Happy New Year! This was a big year as we released Spriter 1.0 and are now on Steam. We also released two new Art Packs, a new promo video, and a new site and forums. Now that the foundation is set, 2015 will be an exciting year for Spriter Pro owners. We already have some amazing unannounced features in the works that we can't wait to share once they're ready to be unveiled. I'm currently focused on creating a working, fully featured and well documented reference implementation. Once finished, this should make creating full Spriter support for any particular authoring system trivial. And we'll be focusing resources and efforts into helping developers port this to as many languages and authoring systems as possible. Originally we were going to make this a barebones implementation with support for all Spriter Pro features, but we've decided to take a bit longer and include several implementation and playback features that most developers will want in their arsenal. Sorry for our slow response times on the forums and tech support during the holidays. Don't worry, you haven't been forgotten, and we will respond and help you resolve your issues as soon as we can. We also realize there are a few open bugs with Spriter R2, and we'll do our best to fix them as soon as this implementation is complete. On a final note, the Steam Sale ends on January 2nd, so there are only two days left to get Spriter Pro for 50% off. Also on BrashMonkey.com Spriter Pro and all of our Art Packs and bundles are also 50% until January 2nd using the coupon code HAPPYHOLIDAYS. Thank you everyone for a great year, and we look forward to making 2015 an awesome year for Spriter users.

If I download the linux builds, I still get a Spriter B11 directory, is this still the old version?

Just wanted to link to this on the main forum for anyone who's been waiting on this: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=12569

Very excited about this program guys!! Posting these as suggestions, but maybe there's already a way to do this... Ability to cancel mid-operation (position,rotation,scale) For example, I've selected a set of parts and in the middle of rotating I realize I started rotating the wrong parts, or maybe I'm just playing around and want to preview how the rotation would look. If I hit 'Esc' while I'm rotating these parts, it could cancel out of the operation without needing to undo. Simplistic paint I'd like to hack some really simple shapes together, or sketch out some ideas without having to jump to my workhorse image editor (Photoshop). These would basically be placeholder art that I'd reskin later.
