Liquify Brush and a bug report

ozlemyildirim

Hello, I would like to share both a suggestion and a bug report. Since the latest update, whenever I paste keys between animations, the program freezes. After the keys are pasted, unrelated bones become distorted and warped.

I use the program for around 10 hours a day on average, and I desperately need a liquify brush feature similar to the one in Live2D. Adding an update like this would take the software to a much higher level.

I am turning my character into a 2.5D full-body anime girl, and currently I have to manually adjust every single vertex one by one (or as a group of vertex), which is an extremely difficult and time-consuming process.

Thank you.

ozlemyildirim We apologize for the inconvenience. We would like to reproduce the bug you reported. If possible, could you please provide us with the steps to reproduce it using an official sample skeleton, such as Spineboy? If the issue only occurs with a specific skeleton you have, we would appreciate it if you could email us the relevant Spine project file: contact@esotericsoftware.com

Brush-based mesh deformation is also available in Spine. Open the Mesh Tools view and check the Soft selection box to enable the Feather option, allowing you to use a brush whose influence tapers off from the center to the edges.

oh my god! I wish I had written this sooner. The brush tool really saved me!! about the bug, i checked the spineboy file and there is no mesh deform keys but when i copy some mesh deform keys from a animation and paste it to another one, spine freezes for a second and then unrelated bones become distorted but this is not a common problem for me it happens rarely but when it happens, it breaks all animations . i will ask my company if i can share the file with you.

ozlemyildirim I'm glad the information about the Mesh tool was helpful to you!

Regarding the bug, since it seemed to be related to the deform key, I spent some time testing it, but I was unable to reproduce the situation you described—where the editor freezes and bones unrelated to the issue are affected. When sharing your Spine project file, it’s perfectly fine to use placeholder images or remove most of the skeleton, as long as the issue can be reproduced. We would greatly appreciate your help in providing a project that reproduces the problem.
