[CocoonJS won't work with Spriter]

Yay!

[CocoonJS won't work with Spriter]

Just got an email back from Ludei asking if they'll ever have CocoonJS able to work with Spriter and C2, the reply I got is below. This is a setback for me, and likely for others, and I wanted to share it with you.

Hi Chris

Not at this moment, we support skeltal animations trought CAAT as you can see here:

http://hyperandroid.github.io/CAAT/docu ... index.html

But this is based on Esoteric software (http://esotericsoftware.com/) and not on Brashmonkey's Spriter.

There is no plans to add support for this in the future because is something that you can do with javascript...

Sorry for any inconvenience,

Carlos

[Please suggest animations for the basic Platformer art pack!]

Here's a few that might be useful

Player:

Casting spell

Double Jump

Swimming

Taunt

Talking

[Construct 2 plugin]

I'm also wondering how it'll interact with CocoonJS, since I plan on using it with Spriter as well. Are there any updates on that front?

Thanks

[Is it possible to have the sprite animate based on input?]

Say, you have a knight in your mouse-driven game. Will it be possible to make the knight's sword point at your mouse, and have the bones of his arm and body react accordingly? How would it be possible to do this in Construct 2?

Thanks for your help!

[Please post feature suggestions here.]

The things I would like are

Tooltips, ease of use things, clear labels : I had to watch the video to figure out how to do things. Messaging to communicate how to do things would be very helpful.

True IK that adjusts all bones necessary, not just one bone back

On that note, the ability to set acceptable angles for bones to bend, so shoulders automatically don't pop out of sockets

Skew/stretch, just a really important animation thing. Check out #1 on this list for details. http://art-eater.com/2010/07/test-1-darkstalkers/

Good product so far, needs a bit more to be great though!
