Unity3d importer [beta]

Nate · 14 فبراير 2014

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!

Thanks for the update and video nicloay

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.

nicloay · 20 فبراير 2014

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

CYBR Labs · 20 فبراير 2014

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

SpineMultiatlasCreationException: provided file does not exists
UnitySpineImporter.SpineMultiatlas.deserializeFromFile (System.String multiatlasFilePath) (at Assets/UnitySpineImporter/Scripts/Editor/Model/Spine/Atlas/SpineMultialtas.cs:19)
UnitySpineImporter.SpineImporterWizard.OnWizardCreate () (at Assets/UnitySpineImporter/Scripts/Editor/SpineImporterWizard.cs:60)
UnityEngine.Debug:LogException(Exception)
UnitySpineImporter.SpineImporterWizardnWizardCreate() (at Assets/UnitySpineImporter/Scripts/Editor/SpineImporterWizard.cs:82)
UnityEditor.HostViewnGUI()

Im following the tutorial exactly but im still getting this message?

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.json skeleton.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.

PPaulMcG · 21 مايو 2014

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

nicloay · 22 مايو 2014

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.

PPaulMcG · 22 مايو 2014

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?

nicloay · 23 مايو 2014

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

Hi nicloay,
Using your latest version, I'm getting the following:

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

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.

Rrxmarcus · 7 يونيو 2014

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

Rrxmarcus · 8 يونيو 2014

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. =)
