Continuing the discussion from PlayCanvas Editor Feedback:

Hi, welcome to PlayCanvas!

I’m with you on Spine support, we’d love to have good support for it, and it’s great they have generic runtime for javascript.

It is all a question of time. If someone was to start work on an open-source script to support Spine we’d definitely be involved and support it. If not, we will get to it, but I’m not sure when unfortunately.

Hi! First of all this is my first post and I’m excited with PlayCanvas. I’d say the environment is very nicely flexible.

Just want to request for Esoteric Software’s Spine component feature (which I believe already asked half a year ago).
They have provided the generic runtime for JavaScript here.

I really need the FFD and the image swapping for 2D animation, and of course the 2D skeletal animation. The asset data size is also small as well so it’s great in every way.

Someone has posted a sample video (Quick Spine test with muramasa assets - YouTube) of what can be achieved from the tool (it doesn’t show what can be done with the character on the right, but also please have a look on the scarf on how important that image swapping is), and I think this is a good feature to think over.
