Re: SVG import

Maestral is entirely correct. Unfortunately, SVG import in AS is severely flawed, and is unsuitable for serious work in my opinion, so I avoid it. I'll give a very simple example that demonstrates some of the issues involved. Original: http://i61.tinypic.com/30vj2qc.png Result in AS: http://i59.tiny...

Re: SVG import

You can import SVG fine in Anime Studio, at least in v10, here is an imported SVG file! http://www.mediafire.com/download/8brq4w6ktsqa7cq/Heckert_GNU_white.zip What program was the image drawn in? Dale Since that is as GNU, I would hazard a guess, and say it was drawn in an open source application....

Primarily done in Blender, with a touch of Flash.

No grease pencil, but still worth a mention here.

Re: 2d grease pencil animation in Blender

How come it's never as easy as these videos make it look when I try it? I could say the same for the Anime Studio tutorials as well... :? :( Well, that is the nature of the beast: animation is hard to do well - it takes a lot of time and effort, no matter what tool is used. Tools like Anime Studio,...

Re: 2d grease pencil animation in Blender

I just heard that the latest 2.73 blender 2D animation is broke?!?!? That is a very vague statement. Who told you, where did you hear or read that? And do you mean grease pencil animation in Blender, or a different type of 2d animation in Blender? Please be more explicit and clear, and we can verif...

Re: 2d grease pencil animation in Blender

The official 2.73 release of Blender with the grease pencil animation is now out. Of special interest is also the new Freestyle SVG output option for non-realistic cartoon rendering! This could be extremely valuable for Anime Studio characters: even animation is supported, so in theory we should be ...

Re: Sketchbook Pro

Nowadays I use Krita for my concept work: open source, and the functionality is impressive. The developers are working on animation support as well. Great painting tools, an open, receptive, community, and no subscription model in sight: what more do you need? https://krita.org/ And it even received...

Re: Importing AI file

New version of Photoline v18.53 is out!

New version of Photoline is out. Some really nice improvements (and if you already registered for v18, a;; free!) Most of you may never have heard of Photoline before. In a nutshell, it is up to par to Photoshop without the 3d and video fluff (not unlike Photoshop minus the "extended" part...
