Proper way to create new skin parts ?

RemDust

Hi guys, >😃
I was wondering which method we should prefer to create new skin parts once the skeleton is already "ready to play".
I mean, some pieces of gear could be larger than the original ones etc.

FYI : The first images have been exported from photoshop via the json plugin.

Now, the road we want to take for customization/skinning is the SpriteAttacher, as it would let us create individual images (attachements) and load them from Resources folder (and the folder can be updated anytime) into Sprite lists.

So how should we proceed for our new sprites to be aligned/sized with the skeleton ?
Maybe if we starts from the exported png (the initial images used in Spine editor) we would have the same "pivot point" ?

I gotta admit I'm not too familiar with how Spine deals with the png finally exported as an atlas (so far, I've got 2 atlas/materials for our default skin) :tmi:

Hi Shiu, thanks for this link it was indeed useful, even if my question may be unclear :
I was not so much asking about how to import/set it in Spine, but more about actually creating the asset, photoshop side of things.

How can I be sure that the new images will be "in place".
Let's say I go from the psd file and change the hat and make a new bigger hat. Where do we go from here ? Export a JSON again ? I feel like this new bigger image woudln't have the same "center" than the previous hat and wouldn't really fit !

(I don't really want to import them and replace them manually in Spine Editor as I need a workflow to create individual sprites in Unity and attach'em runtime)

Export the new set of images as PNG, you can use the script for this or export manually. To place the new image with the same center as an old image, do the following.

select the image under the images node.
press Set Parent or hotkey P.
select the image already placed.

Hope it helps 🙂
