Spriter and Texture Packer problem (Mac) [Resolved]

[Mod619]

hello everybody,

i have a problem exporting my animations from Spriter using a Texture Packer template, when i try to export the animations i select Texture Packer options and select the template, but Spriter error pop up asking me to locate "TexturePacker.EXE" location on my mac book though mac machines doesn't run ".EXE" files it runs ".app" then i select the Texture Packer app and ended up with and error and a ".tps" file with no sprite sheet.

keep in mind that i own Texture Packer pro license and its installed on my machine.

i have these screen shots if you didn't understand my problem.

Hi Mod619,

Sorry about the delayed response. Edgar is tied up in a crunch to release the next build of Spriter asap, but will look into this as soon as he can.

Thanks very much for taking the time to report the issue in such detail. that's a massive help.

cheers,

I found a solution and it works

when it asks you for "Texturepacker.EXE" in your mac go to this directory "/Applications/TexturePacker.app/Contents/MacOS" and select "TexturePacker"

i added the file to the side bar favourites in Finder so i can select it easily without searching.

of course this is a temporary solution because every time you want to use Texturepacker spritesheet you'll select it again.

I'll look into this Mod619. It's supposed to save the location the first time you set it.

In addition, it'd be good if it didn't require travelling into the app bundle to locate the executable. Just ask for the app and let the software figure the rest out (i.e. add the /Contents/MacOS/TexturePacker bit).
