Weird SWF export from Anime Studio Pro 9.0

Post by TonyPolizzi »

Hi all,
I have a problem I am unable to solve by myself.
Every time I use characters from the Character Wizard, when I export to SWF, the seams of the different parts of the character are visible and the layers seems to be not in the correct Z-order. Any hints about that? Thank you.

A guess: the characte uses patches. Patches are not supported in Flash.
AS 9.5 MacPro Quadcore 3GHz 16GB OS 10.6.8 Quicktime 7.6.6
AS 11 MacPro 12core 3GHz 32GB OS 10.11 Quicktime 10.7.3

Thank you very much for you information, slowtiger.
I will try to avoid the use of patches whenever I need to export to SWF.

Check page 286 of the Users Manual for a detailed list about what can and can't be exported to Flash.

if you have ASP9, patches are no longer necessary - why don't you use smart bone actions?

Yes, you're all right. That's the main reason why I upgraded to ASP9.
But every time I need to use the characters from the Character Wizard, I have to modify the character itself by deleting the patches and modifying the segments, isn't it?

Anime Studio exports films to .swf, but without certain effects which are not part of the .swf file format. Just check the manual provided with the flash
