using image sheets in Corona SDK

carmandale

Hello,
I would like to use image sheets in Corona SDK with spine. Specifically, I would like to use the @2x and @4x feature. I have my image sheets working fine, and I have spine working fine, but I can't seem to figure out the syntax in Corona SDK to get image sheets working with Spine. Are there any working examples that I can dissect?

thanks,
Dale

Corona does not make it easy to use image sheets, but you should be able to do it. Use an "image sheet" in the attachment resolver and pass an "image group" to Skeleton.new. Then in the AttachmentResolver, do what you need to do to get the image from the image sheet. I think Corona only has index numbers to look up a region in an image sheet, so you might need to name your images "something-123" and then strip off the "something-".

I was able to get the image sheet working by using this updated spine.lua found here:

I added this to it and it seems to be working fine.
spine.AnimationStateData = require "spine-lua.AnimationStateData"
spine.AnimationState = require "spine-lua.AnimationState"

Oh nice, I had not seen that thread yet. I'll be sure to pull in the improvements from there. 🙂

was this done Nate? i.e. does Spine support this directly, or should I follow the code changes someone posted? (Was going to get to trying to get the Corona dynamic image selection working for my spine character shortly...)

It hasn't been done yet.
