BrashMonkey Spriter Support

[trigdog]

It would be awesome if gsap supported BrashMonkey Spriter scml files.  Spriter is a great new animation program for storing 2d animation information.  There is already a plug-in for as3 / Starling, and I believe there are some javascript plug-ins started also.  The createjs team may already be working on support for this since they are the ones that created the Starling plug-in for use in their game over at TreeFortress.

 

Check the forum for the most recent builds and plug-ins. 

 

Oh, and thanks for all your hard work gsap is great!

Looks like a pretty cool tool for game developers. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not quite sure how it would fit with GSAP, though - what exactly did you have in mind? Did you want us to add a custom parser that loads and reads a SCML file and then puts things into divs or draws them to a canvas element or something? Generally GSAP is for animating properties/values - it's not really a rendering engine or sprite sheet parser. Maybe I'm missing something obvious, though. Wouldn't this be a better fit for a canvas drawing/rendering tool like EaselJS or KineticJS? And then you could use GSAP to animate the actual sprites around?
