Re: Failed to Parse File (Need Help Please!)

the .anime file is, in fact, a .zip file that has a project.amineproj file in it - this is a plain text file in JSON format - so if you feel comfortable getting into that with a text editor you might be able to sort out what's wrong - or at least get something back.. failing that - care to upload th...

Re: Convert Vector-layer to Bitmap-layer

easiest way, IMO, is to make that vector layer the only one visible and render it - If it's not animated - File / Preview then Save As bitmap (or save to clipboard and then in Photoshop File / new from clipboard) or if you need a bitmap sequence, File / Export Animation - then format = image sequenc...

Re: Accuracy: strange circles

camera settings and scale compensation?? warped vinyl: as the spinning disk is meant to be horizontal (?), lift the camera in y and tilt it down; and put the disk at 90 degrees around the x axis? you might try shifting the camera back to (say) z=5 and changing the zoom to maintain visual size. stran...

Re: Crashing when reloading scripts/tools

a few good ways to crash AS: - have a layer script that has a runtime fatal error - have a script with an infinite loop - have two incompatible versions of the same menu or tool script - update a script in such a way as to have incompatible values in Global variables as left over from the previous r...

Re: ASP 3D capabilities

It's likely to be to do with layer origin and vectors in the layer that have, when rotated in 3d, a large z depth - large enough so that when the "front" of a shape is in front of the origin and the "back" behind it there will be other layers with z position somewhere between its...

Re: Looking for a script that really would speedup the workf

it's clearly possible to write a script that looks for "ends" and then tries to pair them up and link them with a curve that (tries to) follow the overall path shape ... but - take a look at some of your gaps.. the human eye is a much better judge of what the path *should* look like. Progr...

Re: Looking for a script that really would speedup the workf

have you considered to possibility of manually adding edges (either zero width or hidden) across the "gaps" in your first figure in order to create a single closed path that can be filled?

that way you get everything you want on one layer without the need for a script.

Re: Reading documentation

@ernpchan - yeah - the documentation from SM on scripting is pretty limited. IMO they're missing a trick by putting scripting out of reach of many by keeping things, ...er... less than clear. IMO, with this approach they're shutting off a stream of free tech support / enhancement work whose value, a...

Re: reload scripts without exiting AS

yeah - the OP was for AS9(.5)?? A whole lot has changed since then.. including needing to be able to make that 4-key combo ... I'm thinking that it might have been set up as a practice exercise for aspiring concert pianists :roll:

Re: Guard---

very nice indeed ... I really like the "smoke/mist/steam" effects - such as in the title sequence up to about 0:11 and on the sword at around 1:40. (and elsewhere). Is that custom brush on an animated stroke in particles? animated in AS11 - but were effects such as the multiple image at ab...

Re: Shadow layer + masking

this should work -- assuming you're on AS11.. copy by reference the mouth layer remove the layer shadow from the copy then... mouth Group - hide all > teeth - mask this layer > tongue - mask this layer > mouth copy - add to mask and keep invisible > mouth - don't mask animate the mouth, and the copy...
