    Mike at BrashMonkey got a reaction from rainbox in Quick questions - Guides and Sounds   
    Hi rainbox,
     
    1) Just left click and drag them back to the ruler.
     
     
    2) They will automatically attempt to import along with the images. One event must be manually added to your event sheet for the sounds to play in your game, BUT there is currently a bug in the Spriter plug-in preventing the sounds playback from working. This will hopefully be fixed within the next week or two, so I suggest you work without sound for now and once the bug is fixed you'll just have to add one event and then all the sounds in your animation will appear.  I'll make a quick tutorial video showing how to make this sound triggering event in C2 for Spriter animations once this bug is fixed.

    Hi, LukeLanFaust,
     
    Pretty much everything you've requested/suggested is planned. We just can't say exactly how soon each specific feature will appear. The reference implementation will definitely come first, though. Thanks again, everyone, for your patience.
     
    Cheers,

    Mike at BrashMonkey got a reaction from SymboliC in Turning and Perspective animations?   
    No, any actual perspective, or any change that would require "new visual data" needs new art by the artist.  Something that any time something moves in a way where we are now seeing a new part of it, or new side of it, you'd need to use the image swap feature.  If you are working on a game that requires a log of animations in perspective, I highly recommend you create your characters first in 3d, animate them in 3d, then export the frames.  At hat point you can decide to either import them as sequential image animations ore take the time to break up each animation into parts for each frame that requires perspective, then reassemble all the frames in Spriter, reusing parts is much as possible.
     
    There's no getting around it, once perspective is involved, a LOT more work and expertise is required.

    There's barebones support for this, but I don't think this feature is supported yet in any of the current Spriter implementations/plug-ins.

    Hi Everyone,
     
    As you might have noticed, we've upgraded to a totally new forums system.  The migration seems to have gone off without a hitch, but there's the possibility that if you posted during the 30 minute window in which we were migrating that your post ended up in the old forums and didn't make it over here. 
     
    For anyone with a missing post, for a limited time you can actually access the old forum by going here: http://www.brashmonkey.com/forumOLD and copy the text from your post so you can easily repost it into the new forum.  If this is required I apologize for the inconvenience.

    Hi again ridjam,
     
    Here is a fast tutorial I made. Sorry its not the highest quality, between a cold, fatigue, no time to script, or edit, and the requirement to not speak at full volume because my children are asleep nearby, its not the best..but hopefully it will explain the features and how to use then adequately.

    Mike at BrashMonkey got a reaction from jokderdeus in How to edit several keyframes ?   
    We love honest feedback and realize the great value of it.  What we want to hear about most is when anything can complicate, prolong or frustrate any aspect of workflow or creativity.  The worst thing would be if out of the sake of politeness any member of our community undersold how important their feature-request could be.
     
    In this case, I understand and completely this is a very important feature and we know we should get it in Spriter as quickly as possible. Especially due the the low time cost (to implement) VS very high reward (much better workflow for many users) nature of this specific feature request.

    linear is the standard, it tweens evenly and smoothly from one key frame to the next. Instant keeps one keyframe static on the screen until the next keyframe, like page-flipping traditional animation. Custom allows you to add speed curves, to ease in or out the tweening.
     
    I suggest you play with them to get a better understanding.
     
    It seems you're right about there not being a tutorial video yet for this topic. I'll put in on my to-do list...but it might take a while, so don't wait for the video..experiment yourself after reading my description above.

    Hi Everyone,
     
    I found the system setting to allow animated GIFs for avatars etc and have switched it on.  If your avatar isn't animating as it should, just choose to change the image in your user control panel and then re-upload it and it should then be animating as expected.

    Mike at BrashMonkey got a reaction from RunnerPack in Nomenclature question   
    An animated character is not necessarily a Sprite... in fact, typically a sprite represents a single image at a time being moved around by a game.  We used the term object in the generic sense within the spriter properties title because it can mean a sprite (image) OR a bone, both of these objects have properties than can be edited in the "object" properties palette.
     
    So, a fully animated Spriter animation playing on screen is not a sprite, and depending on the context you  an call it a Spriter object, a Spriter entity, or a Spriter animation.
     
    A sprite is simply an image being controlled and moved around in a game.
     
    Most Spriter animations involve multiple sprites being moved, rotated etc to create an animated object or character.
     
    That's about as clear as such a convoluted topic can be I think. ;)
