    • Fixed a bug that prevented the plugin from working when exported for Wii-U

  • Thank you everyone for the continued bug reports and suggestions. I'll be looking into everything, including the lagging one frame behind issue.

    Practically I am asking to get rid of the green box sprite helper and use directly the Spriter object for detecting collisions and use of image points. When the character is down, the collision box becomes smaller, example: from 64x128px when the character is standing -> change to 64x64px when the character is down, the scale of the animation remains the same).

    No ETA on this, but it is a planned feature.

    Taking the opportunity what is the better way to update a .scml file in C2, after changed it in Spriter?

    It should just be a matter of dragging the scml file back into C2 after it's been changed. Making sure the scon has been resaved as well. Here's a more detailed explanation:

  • The old file I mentioned is diferent, it has a "sprite element" for each body part option

    That means in the old file you were probably using a separate sprite object on each frame in Spriter, instead of switching images on one sprite. The way you're doing it now is the right way for most cases, since you want your sprite to be able to tween in Spriter, and in C2, you can use one set of events for the head, rather than separate events for each animation frame.

    The latest version of the plugin and importer require the files to be saved with two save options set in Spriter. This setting will be saved, so you only have to set it once. If you resave both files and import into C2, it will work as expected. This also makes it so C2 gives the sprites a more useful initial position:

  • Hi lucid

    I sent you a PM with my data.

    It's not showing up in my PMs - at least not yet.

    You can also send it to

  • lucid, I build a spriter character which has some options for faces, arms, torso, etc and I made some animation in which I changed the body parts, selecting it and right mouse click the other option in object menu, but when I put it in C2 it only go with the basic body parts! It is a missing feature on C2 plugin or maybe I am doing something wrong?

    Yes. I think your missing the prior posts Lucid has mentioned that Ashley needs to update C2 for the plugin to fully work.

    NRABrazil, if you mean that Character Maps aren't working, then jayderyu is correct. If you just mean just regular image switching in an animation, then it should be working normally. Make sure that both the scml and scon files were saved with the C2 options on upon import. If it's still not working after this, the best way for me to troubleshoot is if you can send me your Spriter project folder (scml/scon and images) in a zip, and I'll take a look.

    EDIT:

    [quote:1ey2ld79]I have an old spriter file

    If the file was saved with a much older version of Spriter, please try to resaving and reimporting the file.

  • lucid

    It is working now. Thank you very much.

    Excellent. Glad it's working now.

  • any updates on char maps working in construct 2?

    No status update yet. Ashley and I last spoke a couple of weeks ago about the importer, and we were working out specifics of how the importer and plugin should work with the latest features. Unfortunately, when I completed my part (getting the current pro featureset finished in the plugin), he was already in the middle of several other C2 things which he expected could take a few weeks. I will reply back here when I have a clearer estimate.

    I can't understand why that particular image won't appear.

    Do you have any idea why this is happening?

    It's the 'ç' character in 'cabeçaGato'.

    If you rename that object to 'cabecaGato' in Spriter and save the scml and scon again it will work when you import it into C2.

    For now I would just use this workaround, but at some point I will take a look into whether there's a way I can enable the plugin to handle the expanded character set.

    Nice cat, btw.
