Announcement: New Krita export plugin for Spine

Masterio

Krita 4.2.1 has an error: ... Not enough arguments...

Fix:

Add the import in file SpineExport.py

from krita import InfoObject

next change the method parameters:

from:

child.save(layer_file_name, 96, 96)

to:

child.save(layer_file_name, 96, 96, InfoObject())

Really looking forward to progress in this plugin as this would simplify my work flow by cutting out the photoshop middle man :bigeye:

Tried copy the folder and .desktop to the pykrita folder and but the export option does not show up in the menu.
Does the script not work in the latest Krita version

It's a great plugin but I'm having a problem. krita v4.4.8 is giving me an error and not exporting.

Is there anything I can read from the error message?

Hello,
Is there any chance that the plugin will support skins soon ?

Thank you very much ! 🙂

Savidiy

Hi. I have just started using Spine. But this plugin doesn't work with Krita 5.2.2, so I made a fix. I didn't delve into the results, so please let me know if you have any problems. I used the version DanStout/KritaToSpine which can work with [Skin] tag. I open a pull request, but now the patched version can be downloaded from my repository Savidiy/KritaToSpinetree/master.

Savidiy Hi. Your repo seems to be private. Or at the very least, the link leads to 404.

Hello Savidiy

I'm glad to see that people still need to use this feature 🙂
I don't have so much time to try it, but thank you for the upload. I'll give a feedback when I use it

have a nice day 🙂

Savidiy

T.Fly() sorry, I think there is extra dot in the link above. Try this Savidiy/KritaToSpinetree/master

T.Fly()

Savidiy It's working now and thank you for getting it up to date. Skin and merge support is pretty big. I wasn't aware it's available somewhere else other than Photoshop.

Savidiy

I've added a few improvements for exporting:

The selected width and height is saved.

When merging the pass-through checkbox is unchecked (in my case it fix black exported image)

The layer blending is passed to spine for Normal, Additive, Multiply and Screen variants.

T.Fly()

Savidiy Would you be interested to do a pull request for spine scripts repo? EsotericSoftware/spine-scripts

More people should know they are not forced into the Adobe ecosystem to get all the relevant parts of the PhotoshopToSpine script functionality since no other script on there supports those features.

Savidiy

Sorry, but I'm not ready to take on the responsibility of maintaining the plugin in the official repository. Especially if they make support for PSD files it may become irrelevant.

Nate

BTW, we are working on having the Spine editor process a PSD file itself. Most image editing software can write the PSD format, so this will break us free from the nasty Adobe products. We already have this working but it isn't finished. It will be in 4.3 for sure, but maybe it can make it into 4.2.

Fabiano

Just wanted to say I'm using this at the moment because it's true Spine is now able to import PSD directly, but it will take time before all projects and runtime in the world catch up with the newer versions.
For example, I'm working on a Pixi project that forces us to stay with 4.1.

This Krita tool works well and just lacks a few things here and there to be simply perfect.
Namely:

support all remaining tags like [scale:...]
letting user decide the name of the json
basically all the features missing compared to the PS to Spine script.

Excellent job nonetheless 💝

BharathiKannan

Hey everyone,

I've been working on integrating Krita with Spine and wanted to share a modification I made to the script to ensure compatibility with newer versions of Krita. I've added a couple of import statements for the 'json' and 're' modules that were missing in the original script. These changes help the script run smoothly on the latest Krita versions.

Feel free to use and adapt the code as needed for your projects!

Happy animating! 🎨✨
