After Effects and Photoshop export script for Spine

Nimai

Thank you for the information about language settings! Maybe this will help others as well. And, ideally, the script would work in any language.

Regarding a tutorial, you are not the first person to ask for that. I'd hoped someone would make such a tutorial. For now, here's a start. I'll add to this as more users share their experiences here.

Hi,

Does he mean language of after effects or the language settings in the jsx file?
Either way, my after effects is Eng and so is the json file.

I've been meaning to post a step by step procedure of After Effects to Spine. I finally got around to compiling the steps here:

After Effects to Spine - Step by Step

Feel free to add helpful comments/additions. It's just a draft but hopefully a helpful start.

Hello,

I'm also having problems with the export script.

Running AE CC 2015 on a Win7 machine. Whenever I run the script, an error occurs: "Script can not be executed in line 1251. Undefined is is not an object."

Any suggestions, what's could be the cause?

I know of someone, who has successfully used the export script on AE CC 2014 and my AE composition exports fine on his WIN machine.

EDIT: Alright, I found the problem. The script runs fine, once you have switched your AE to english. Living in Germany, it automatically installed as german version. Been googling for how to switch language and that little bit helped.

It will not be able to run the ae_to_spine.jsx script with an error.
Please tell me the cause.

OS X Yosemite
Version 10.10.5

AfterEffects CC 2015 (13.7)

That's strange. The line it's stopped on is inside of a try-catch block...
I can help more if you are able to email me a zip of the After Effects project. I will private message you.

I have the same problem. But on one machine everything is OK, and the other does not work/ Not work on win10 ae13.7
If you know what the problem is, please let me know

It would also be cool if the script was like a validator. To output window with errors in the project, for example - "you are using in the layer number 10 tint effect, on export this is skiped"

I like that idea of listing everything that was found which is not supported! I will look into that.

For apcdytc's error, I believe this is the solution:
You are using the ExtendScript Toolkit.
Make sure you have Do Not Break on Guarded Exceptions checked!

ExtendScript Toolkit | Debug | ✓ Do Not Break on Guarded Exceptions

Hey Nimai!

Just wondered whether you found a solution?
Cause I would love to use it! But I keep getting that error (see attachment).

My operating system is OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 | Using script 46 | Adobe AE CC 2017.1

Thanks in advance!

Nimai

I see you too are running the script from the ExtendScript Toolkit. Did you already try what I wrote in the last post?

The GitHub repo seems to be gone, so I've recovered the code from Google's cache:
ae_to_spine.jsx
I wasn't able to find psd_to_spine.jsx, sorry.

Edit: this zip has both files:

Error: "Unable to execute at line 1966. Function Object.create is undefined"

Not sure what is causing it, could have something to do with me not having the original lib files; had to make them.

Where did you found the Version 46? In the gitHub repository you can only find the 44

This is the script link：
