Image Formats

danthat

Before I charge in and start saving everything out as .pngs, am I right in thinking Spine won't import .psd as an image format? Any plany to support .psd? It's nice and handy to be able to edit the image direct without having a psd master with a png copy...

Possibly in the future, but for now it's just PNG. There's only one of me! :p

Hey there,

I 'm bumping this thread. It would be absolutely amazing to have a basic PSD support, just reading the flattened file with alpha. Just like what Unity or Maya does.This really helps with not having twice the exact same files living in different folders, one being the psd, the other being the exported png.
It really helps with the workflow in general > Edit PSD file, save, done.

Does that sound doable in the near future ?

Thanks !

I think this is months away if ever.

Can't speak for Nate though.

There is a thread around somewhere with a Photoshop to Spine Exporter that Nate wrote, that may help in the meantime?

Hey 🙂

Thanks for that, I do use that amazing script already.

But I'd really like to see that basic PSD support in Spine some day....
(not what this script does, btw, something much simpler)

Thanks !

We've talked about openraster support a bit, no idea when we would be able to implement it yet I'm afraid. Unlikely to be soon.

Thanks for the update anyway 🙂

Thanks Pharan - my friend turned up halfway through posting so didn't have time to search and add the link.

If PSD import is added I would seriously consider Spine since it would match my workflow. Basically just import a PSD with the layers in their same positions they have in the PSD so I can edit the PSD and have everything automagically just work. Otherwise it kills tons of time exporting and importing all those layers into a rig and setting them up if you have hundreds of images.

Not sure if this will help but if you want a pro sale, implement this and you'll have my money:

I saw your Reddit post first, so we might as well continue discussion there:
