How can I reuse characters?

Post by ruibjr »

I have been trying to reuse achar acter that I have created.
As far as I understand, the way to reuse characters is to IMPORT ASP OBJECT.
But, when I do that, I get all the bones on the screen.
I wish AS would encapsulate the character as a single layer, which I could then resuse in multiple projects.
Is there a way to do it?
Maybe there is no way to do it, other than including the charcter into the project and having to deal with all of its bones and layers.]


--------------------------

OK. I got it.
I am sorry for asking so many stupid questions, but It's taking me some time to get used to the interface and the workflow.
Thanks for your time and understanding.

P.S.: I hope next versin inlcudes scene management and character library interfaces well.

Anime Studio has very good re-use functionality, if u ask me. You can easily create library along wid complete action such as turns, hand position etc and reuse them in any project best way to get good use out of this feature is to create a library along with action of ur character

Search the forum for a scene selector program that one of the users on here made. It's really helpful for managing your scenes and stuff and helps you create a sort of library of your content
