Thank you for your replies. I think I might give it a shot just to see if it does the job. If not, I'll revert back to using the .spine files and exporting from them.
Just one thing I'm not sure about: how do I do this with the CLI? I've gone through the documentation but I'm not sure how to import first (with the older version) and export after (with the new version).
So, the importing would look something like this, from what I've gathered:
before_version=3.4.02
"$SPINE_EXE" \
-u $before_version ${@:2} -f \
-i ../Desktop/Lock/OldExport/skeleton_Lock.skel -o -r
I'm not sure how to locate the file the new .spine file that gets generated by running the above command. The documentation states that -o, --output Path to project file to import into. Created if nonexistent.
, so I assume it does get created somewhere but I'm not sure where.
I guess I would then run something like this:
after_version=4.1.00
"$SPINE_EXE" \
-u $after_version ${@:2} -f \
-i ../Desktop/Lock/newlyCreatedSpine.spine -o ../Desktop/Lock/NewExport -e binary
