  • Skeleton missing images when sharing project

Hello!

We're having a little issue here regarding missing images when we share a .spine project. We're a small team, and we use dropbox. Whenever anyone else but me opens the .spine file, the images for the skeleton are missing.

We've tried to manually assign the images path to the correct folder, and we have also put the project file in the same folder as the images.

The issue is that on my personal computer, it works like a charm, but on my animator's computer, it seems impossible to get those images working correctly.

Is this a bug, or is it because he has the trial version?

Images names are paths relative to the images folder. Click the Images node in the tree to set the images folder. You can click browse and set an absolute path, but each person likely has a different absolute path. Instead, you can type a relative path. It will be relative to the project file. Eg, "images" would be a folder called "images" next to the project file.

Thanks for the reply, got it to work now with defining absolute path. But out of curiousity - how do i set a relative path? Couldnt get it to work.

just type in the relative path. Example "/folderName/folderNameB" or "../folderName"

Tried that, but doesnt seem to work. Then i just get "missing images" again. Weird..

You must be typing in the wrong relative path then

Note the image names are relative to your images path. Eg if you have your project:
c:/stuff/project.spine
And you have your images path:
images
And you have an image named:
green/monster
Then it will look for your image at:
c:/stuff/images/green/monster.png

Thanks for the insight. Was not initially that user friendly, but its all good now 🙂

Sorry did not mean to sound "short". Was just busy fiddling with getting the new Ghosting feature up and running together with Nate.

Oh no problem. Looking forward to future features, keep it up 🙂
