For some reason I cannot get my head around it so far! Same here. It seems really interesting and I've downloaded it a couple of times, started looking at tutorials and then stopped because it seems too complicated. That's just my initial impression though. I might be totally wrong. Perhaps it's ab...

It looks great but why use step interpolation? Since it's all point motion wouldn't it look even better with smooth interpolation?

Just what I wanted! great! This cycle option should be include in AS. Let's animate zombie walks! :D Well it's thanks to you I was able to write this script. I read what you wrote elsewhere: I have seen that After Effects and other software like Cinema 4d have a cycle option very useful: loopout of...

Your post also reminded me to get back to my tool that automatically creates keys for new points based on keys for points either side of it, to help with the "stuck-pin" problem. I've already done that :P Well not exactly, I've modified the split curve script to work on the whole animatio...

Thanks for looking through the code Rudiger! There is a lot to be done for sure. I was having a bit of trouble with the transparency and the way I do it now, with a color as transparent, is especially not good when you turn on antialiasing since that color will shine through the antialiased pixels. ...

Bitmap drawing tool test

On Animators Forum I recently gained access to the VIP Scripting forum (around 50 posts needed) and in one of the threads Synthsin and Rudiger were talking about how you can use external .dll files to extend the scripting capabilities of Anime Studio. This sounded very interesting and I've been play...

Unfortunately AS has problems with complex scenes and/or high resolutions. Masks and aliasing also have tendencies to stop working: http://animestudioscripts.com/aliaserror/ In my experience AS can handle a bit more if you use it on a single core machnine, but you will still get errors eventually if...

I have problems with pasting in both After Effects and Photoshop. Restarting the application usually helps. It's really annoying when you copy an image in an external application and Photoshop keeps pasting the previous image from the clipboard while other applications paste the new image. I don't k...
