Don't worry, your English is fine. 🙂 You dropped the F bomb at just the right time. 😉

There is defintely some benefit to doing things the way Unity users are used to, that's for sure. It's unfortunate if the flow chart stuff can't be used to control code, it seems like a missed opportunity for Unity. I wish I had time to dig into it. I will when I get a chance!

Honestly the way of making things work in Unity is awkward for me. I am sure how spine-unity is used can be made more friendly, even if the flow chart stuff can't be used. A spine-unity controller should be similar to how you had to write code for your controller. Once done it should be relatively easy to customize or reuse.

Spine can do meshes, though I haven't updated the Unity runtimes yet.

I'm not knocking your runtime, it is quite neat. 🙂 Probably the biggest advantages are that everything is a GameObject, so you can attach things without using BoneComponent, and that Unity users may already be used to using the Animation tools. It's good to have options!

Glad to see continued work on this! :yes:

EDIT: Does image swapping work? I seem to have an issue with all the images moving off the body erratically.

Do you mean slot order animation? no currently it doesn't work

Yes, that is what I mean. I shall await for it to one day work. 🙂

Is this project still in development? Hoping it isn't dead, going to give it a try tonight!

I didn't work on this importer for the last month. But if you have any critical bugs, (not a feature like FFD) i'm ready to fix them.

Hi Nicloay,
Just found your Run time today and it looks really good i have run into a slight problem though. When i hit generate to make my Prefabs, i get this

Hi PaulMcG,
Could you share xml and json files, and I will check why it doesn't work.
And please note that you don't need to rename spine generated files, xml,json and png.
Аs I remember xml and json should have the same names, like
AABB.json AABB.xml.

Also you can check your xxxx.atlas file, it hase a name of png file inside, like

Kevin.png
format: RGBA8888
filter: Linear,Linear
repeat: none
Leg_L/foot_l
...

which mean that Kevin.png should be located in the same folder.
This file can have several links to images, just searh by "format" keyword, and png file will be above that row.

Hi Nicloay,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, Files are attached.

Hope its something simpleskeleton.jsonskeleton.atlas.txt

try to rename skeleton.atlas.txt to skeleton.atlas at first.
My importer take json name and trying to search atlas file with the same name and *.atlas extension. unlike of original spine runtime, this importer doesn't use input files and generate prefabs, so it's not needed to make assets with that data.

No that didn't help got the same Error.
Ive attached the Spite sheet below see if you get the same error i do

PaulMcG, i found several issues.
1 - atlas file has a new property, so the problem was to correct parse input data. [fixed, release it soon]
2 - Problem on unity side: it's not possible to add curve with one keyframe [working on it]

upd1: you can take latest version here (currently it's 0.3.1)
Don't forget to rename txt extension from .atlas file. Also you will see many errors because of your animation has just one frame, don't worry about them pose should be fine.
I asked about that on unity forum. If i will find how to fix that, I'll do that. problem is that this error comes from unity c++ side.

HI NicLoay,
Thanks for doing the changes so quickly, im getting half way but still not working 100 percent. I Have two walk cycles a forward and a backwards in my spine project, but only a single frame appears and no animation or animator files?

Im using spine version 1.8.35 profeshional and Unity3D 4.3.2f1 could their be a clash of versions?

I could email you my Spine project and you could see exactly what should be coming out the other side?

With Paul project found one more bug (no slot attachments gave an error)
fixed in v0.3.2 version

It still creates the skeleton, but the heirarchy of bones on the skeleton appear to be in the wrong order. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Running version 1.8.41 of Spine.

Thanks,
Marc

Hi Marc,
Could you show your .json and .atlas file.

Sure, sorry should have posted before, here you go.

Hi Marc,
Thanks for files, found the issue quite fast. The reason of null pointer is that you don't have any animation.
Fixed that in new version v0.3.3, you can grab it here

Thanks for the quick fix. Yea that one doesn't have animations because I actually import him and create a ragdoll object with him to spawn during deaths in our game. =)

Hey @nicloay... just wanted to say thanks for the importer, works great so far! I'm not doing anything too tricky, but it all came in fantastic. If you name your animations correctly in Spine the mechanim clips link up perfectly to the 2D platform controller - pretty cool to see it all work so seamlessly.

un mese dopo

Just fixed one more bug faced by Vinson.

  • NPE with null attachments at slot animation.
    I hope that it won't breake existing slot animation functionality =).
    take the latest build here

new release is here
v0.4:

  • draw order animation
  • spine events in unity

All features has been done by abraksil
I'm very happy to see new developers at this project on github
Thanks for your job man, I'm sure these features will be useful for many people here.

p.s.
if you want to develop this plugin, don't hesitate, just send me pull request and I'll merge your changes to the master.

When I import the animation into Unity...
and then , I update my Spine project, I need to re-import into Unity.
some way to update all changes in Unity project quickly ?

Hi..
I have Question
My Project Have "Mesh"

And I've put in unity3d using this version "unitySpineImporter v0.4 (beta)"
Did, came to this state.

My Setting is

What was wrong
What should I do?

Atlas And Json
skeleton.7z

Hi mogamun
Unfortunately mesh animation is not supported here (unity doesn't have any API to work with mesh animation right now)
You can work with it just using native spine runtime

Right now you can use just manual reimport.

I'm sorry but I think mesh animation is actually supported by Unity.
However in order to do that, you have to uncheck "Strip whitespace X" and "Strip whitespace Y" in the texture packer settings.
More infos in this official video : http://youtu.be/-V84OIvZdQc?t=1m33s

Hope it will help you. Nice sprite by the way 😉

      Sorry for unclearing this up. As Nicolay said, Nicolay's importer does not support Mesh Animation. Unity does not have the ability to directly modify meshes using its Animator or Animation components.

      This video is using the official Spine runtimes which do not use Nicolay's importer which generates Unity Animations, not native Spine animations.

        I'm a little confused here. Ok here's what I'm trying to do: I have used mesh and weighted the character's leg so that it deforms more organically when animating using IK. So basically, there is no animation (or keys) on the mesh or the vertices. The mesh just bends or deforms based on the movement of the bones it's attached to. Will I be able to see it in Unity? Or any texture with "Mesh" applied on won't show up in Unity whether or not it has animation on it?

        Thanks a lot for your time.

        There are two Spine Unity runtimes: 1) spine-unity which is the official runtime and Mitch's brainchild, and 2) Nicolay's runtime. spine-unity supports all Spine features, so yes, your mesh will appear in Unity and deform as it does in Spine.

          Hello Nate,

          You probably already know this since this was 1 year ago.

          Unity's Mecanim ("flow chart stuff") can indeed control code. For all I know, you can select a given animation and have it call a function at a specific point in that animation.

          Cheers
