How can I export an animation (lets say it's 24 frames long) to PNG images (to be used in a game) however only exporting every X images? So say for example export every 2nd frame only, so I would have 12 PNG images exported.

Or is there a work around to get the same thing somehow?

Background - Using for a Corona game so don't really want heaps of images to bring into the sprite sheet. Current I export the frames then have to go in an manually delete every 2nd PNG image before importing to my SpriteHelper2.

will setting the FPS to 12 not have the same effect?

ok, see what you mean (sorry I'm a newbie for sure)

So I would just have to "shrink" down the keyframes then to compensate right? That is if I change the frame rate to 6 frames per sec the animation slows down, i.e. for exiting animations I have. Is there an automated way to shrink/scale down the keyframe point on an Action timeline? Can't see to see one. May have to move them manually?

When you render just click on the 'render at half frames rate.'

it may get complicated if you have lots of layers - but if you select all frames you can alt drag the last one to compress them down - if you're going from 24 to 12, just make sure you're compressing exactly in half...

in future, if you want to export 12 fps - set your project to 12
