Any way to interpolate between different styles?

Just completing a hand rig and I'm using a switch layer with interpolation for the different hand shapes. Depending on the position of the fingers they have different skin tones, and I'm currently using styles to allow these colours to be easily updated, making the hands very flexible. Is there a wa...

can you create new bodies for the character wizard?

I like the idea of using the character wizard to setup a library of characters but the folders appear to only allow you to create new facial features, hands and feet. Is there a way to create new body parts that can be mixed and matched in the same way? I'm not a huge fan of the existing body shapes...

I've rendered 7 minutes of full hd animation in AS 6 and Windows 7 64 bit without issues, although I use quicktime almost exclusively.

Unfortunately this didn't fix it. I wasn't going to swap versions half way through a project but I'll test version 7 before I start the next project.

ASPro 6 - HD Rendering artifacts

I'm outputting a project in HD and getting some small white rendering artifacts- white dots and small white lines. Is this common, and/or does ASPro 7.1 fix it? The project has a lot of large bitmaps, but the artifacts are occurring over vector objects.
An y ideas?

Tech Support comes through...first time I've ever used them :) Even though there were no bones in the test scene, you still need to uncheck the warp using bones box on each of the image layers. I've since added bones to the scene and used bind layer on the switch layer and it works perfectly. Very c...

I just reread the options and switch layers are not mentioned. Image layers are ok as long as they are not warped by a bone layer. Since a switch layer doesn't warp the images is this a bug?
Images bound to a bone work perfectly in a flash file, they just can't be distorted.

nope....no bones in the test file, just dropped the image layers onto a single switch layer.

switch layer images don't export to swf

Hi I'm working out a new workflow for a project and slowly getting different things into place. My current stumbling block is that on a test export of a switch layer (using image layers), the images didn't appear in the swf export. I've been through the manual and it doesn't list this as one of the ...

Genius... Drag and drop from Explorer works in Windows.
Photo montage is a stylistic choice, I don't have to be too worried about compression. Maybe the next project I'll go vector.
And I have Flash, I just like Anime Studio more.
Thanks heaps

import multiple images in one go

Hi, I use Anime studio for cutout animation....and I don't use photoshop much. Because I'm often asked for swf output, I crop all of my images, and optimise as much as possible. So the first step of any animation is importing images one by one by one by one.....you get the idea :) Is there anyway to...

As pro software I would really prefer to see Anime Studio Pro maintain a focus on it's two d capabilities while extending the essential 2.5 /3d components. multiplane camera should have full control over focal length. motion blur needs to be improved even it is a simple brute force multi pass option...

Script Request scale key frames for motionblur

Is it possible to write a script to create multipass motion blur similar to that in many 3d programs? And is anyone interested in doing so? I've been experimenting and I can create the equivalent of 100% motion blur with 4 passes per frame by animating at 100 fps and then slowing the rate to 25fp in...

How do I animate a stroke along a path?

Is there an easy way to animate @ brush stroke along a path /spline in Anime Studio Pro?
I know t can do it by animating the points manually, but I'm hoping there's a way to do it automatically.
Thanks for any assistance.
