Visible Images question

Post by MugoUrth »

Hey, me again. Got another question.

I recently dusted off my old Anime Studio program to recreate a scene from a video-game, using different characters, and I used Image files for this. Upon completion, I converted it to flash and uploaded it to Deviant Art. ...But when I did... Nothing, it was completely blank. You could hear music in the background, but that's it. Is there a way to fix this?

Also, this forum seems so... different than I remember.

If you warp images, nothing of that exports to SWF since that format doesn't understand this. As long as you do simple scalings, translations and rotations (no 3D), images will appear in SWF.

I warped everything to full screen. I'm assuming in order to UN-warp, I have to start over.

Open the image layer tab and un-check "warp", this keeps you on the safe side for a start. Use layer scaling instead of warping with bones to enlarge stuff.

...Bones? I didn't use bones at all. Actually, that's what I used was the Layer Scaling tool.

In that case it should work. You must be very careful to NOT use any shear or rotate x/y tools.
