stalker247 I recommend using the cc sdk as a way to boost the fun aspect of learning. Take your normal tutorials and books, or classes on c++. they are all over the web. cplusplus.com will be invaluable as you get further along. but after you've gotten the basics out of the way, also study the sdk, not to learn from the code that's there, but there's something very rewarding when learning a programming language to be able to make cool stuff happen. in between mundane and pedestrian dos prompt examples, you can be making construct objects fly around the screen, and such

canvas worked for me when I was working on it. for the next version, a memory leak in canvas is fixed, and distort maps have been added

...to make it crash....it would crash every time i went to add or move something...it would still crash a lot...es. stability seems to be the main complaint. here is a test exe for the new ui so far. please let me know if it works for you. once complete, the final 1.0 version of spriter will be built on this. so please test it out, and try to make it glitch up or crash, and tell me how you did it. press space bar to create a window, right click to add elements:

Hey Lucid, is the commercial version found at brashmonkey.com compatiable with this plugin for Construct Classic. we have a converter between the old and new format available. mike has the link. I'll get it from him and post it later.

o man, I totally didn't realize there was a second search button. also, I mentioned this a while back, but thought I might eventually get used to it, but it's kinda annoying that it's a fake search bar at the top complete with changing cursor, because the impulse is to start typing. if it can't be an actual functional editbox up there, i don't think it should be disguised as one either. just my 2 cents

I agree, but here's an easier way that involves less searching, reading, and writing

Yeah, don't rememeber the name of this studio, but I've always found their animation to be well entrenched in uncanny valley, and the movies to be mediocre. Also, I didn't grow up watching tintin, however I think the sub-title to this movie has the word 'unicorn' in it, which has me more interested than all the other factors

I am still trying to understand where these triangles are being formed.

object starting point is red

object ending point is pink

light grey lines are examples of nonrelative x and y offsets.

black are examples of directions of motion.

when you're trying to get the speed relative to an angle, you're trying to get the black part of the triangles.

So, i know that lucid are working on spriter...but...but...anyone trying to help develop CC?

ing is right

I was also working on cc, btw.

lucid is right, the new devs have been doing some work on a new release recently and we're going to try and put together an r2 release soon. We're just very busy at the moment, but I do want to get this done in the next couple of weeks.
