Thank you! I think we would prefer to be using one mesh, I just had some issues when I tried to bake my skin at runtime. I probably need to take another look at that.

Thank you. I sent it to the new address. I also added sorting groups, and it worked. Thank you, Pharan!

I'm sure this is clear, but just in case: sorting groups fixed the orthographic camera issue. Tangents are still wrong in animation.

What does it say when you try to access? Make sure at the top right of your Google drive page that you are accessing as unity@esotericsoftware.com ... Or if that's an alias, please give me the email address you are using.

Pharan, you should have just received a Google Drive link from me to share a sample project. Let me know your thoughts, or if you have any questions about my process.

One small additional bug: if you make the camera orthographic (ortho size 7) in that scene, the z-sort order of the slots gets all messed up.

Updated. Same issue currently. I may be willing to make a simple example scene to send your way, if you're interested.

No problem! Let me know what I can share with you to help this go smoothly!

I believe 3.6. The runtime in unity says "This runtime works with data exported from Spine Editor version: 3.6.xx" ... can't find any other versioning info. Should we attempt an upgrade?

I'm having an issue with Solve Tangents. Your example scene is working fine, but when I apply Solve Tangents to my own sprite I have issues. If I override the sprite's motion with SkeletonUtility, the tangents appear to solve. But if I run an animation, the tangents appear static.

See the following image for details. I am debugging worldNormals to show the issue. The attached issue is in my homebrewed shader, but the same issue appears if I try to apply your out-of-the-box shaders.

Ok thank you for the help. But what about repacking skins at runtime to save draw calls / texture memory?

hey peeps! I'm new around here. Been working on a project in Unity, and I'm wondering if anyone has any sage advice. I'm creating a custom skin by duplicating the currently equipped skin, and setting (or removing) attachments as necessary.

For instance, for the head, I am setting the Head, Main_Hair, Side_Hair, and Mask attachments. In this particular example, I'm trying to set the Head attachment, and remove Main_Hair, Side_Hair and Mask.

For some reason, the result is that the Head attachment changes, and the Hair slots stay the same. I've even debugged, and the hair slots should be getting removed.

customSkin = customSkin.GetClone();

// set or remove slots as necessary for the new custom skin
foreach (var skinSlot in skinSlots)
{
    var newAttachment = skin.GetAttachment(skinSlot.slot, skinSlot.key, skeleton);

if (newAttachment != null)
{
    customSkin.SetAttachment(skinSlot.slot, skinSlot.key, newAttachment, skeleton);
}
else
{
    customSkin.RemoveAttachment(skinSlot.slot, skinSlot.key, skeleton);
}
}

// if I check the customSkin here before setting, it appears to be correct. the hair attachments do not appear in the collection
skeleton.SetSkin(customSkin);

I was expectig that if newAttachment returned null, I would just remove any attachment from the customSkin, and that this slot would just be empty. Not sure what's actually happening.

I seem to have figured out a solution, but it required a slight change to the SDK code.

if (slot.Attachment == entry.Value) {
    Attachment attachment = GetAttachment(slotIndex, entry.Key.name);
    if (attachment != null) slot.Attachment = attachment;
}

the

if (attachment != null)

line makes it such that applying a skin with less attachments will skip any attachments that are not provided. I think this is so you can supply a "skin" that contains only the clothing, and the other sprites won't change. So if I pass in a skin with a helmet (no hair), the hair just stays there.
I think I follow the reasoning there, it's just not quite what I wanted to do with my code.

I don't know how dirty this is, but I suggest an overload. skipNullAttachments (default = true to follow current convention)

// in Skin.cs
internal void AttachAll (Skeleton skeleton, Skin oldSkin, bool skipNullAttachments = true) {
    foreach (KeyValuePair<AttachmentKeyTuple, Attachment> entry in oldSkin.attachments) {
        int slotIndex = entry.Key.slotIndex;
        Slot slot = skeleton.slots.Items[slotIndex];
        if (slot.Attachment == entry.Value) {
            Attachment attachment = GetAttachment(slotIndex, entry.Key.name);

        if (skipNullAttachments && attachment == null)
            continue;

        slot.Attachment = attachment;
    }
}
}

and

// in Skeleton.cs
public void SetSkin (Skin newSkin, bool skipNullAttachments = true) {
    if (newSkin != null) {
        if (skin != null)
            newSkin.AttachAll(this, skin, skipNullAttachments);
        else {
            ExposedList<Slot> slots = this.slots;
            for (int i = 0, n = slots.Count; i < n; i++) {
                Slot slot = slots.Items[i];
                string name = slot.data.attachmentName;
                if (name != null) {
                    Attachment attachment = newSkin.GetAttachment(i, name);

                if (skipNullAttachments && attachment == null)
                    continue;

                slot.Attachment = attachment;
            }
        }
    }
}
skin = newSkin;
}

No problem. Thanks for your reply. Love your work!

Do you by chance know of anyone who you would recommend for Spine freelance / contract? Studios? Anything?

Appreciate any feedback.

Matt
