HELPPP WHERE'S PART 4 😭This is the best tutorial I've seen out there... it's so well explained and PRETTYY I love how you illustrated it...

[@iNdVudSudHGa]

so true! the best spine tutorial

[@rufogaray9380]

OMG i desperately need a Part 4 :,( these are SO GOOD! thank u for making them

[@breakfastgun]

This series is the best Spine tutorial series, even with it being incomplete (at this point). I really hope you continue with it.

[@QuintenLansu]

Starfish vs. Tree is a *genius* way to describe different rigging strategies!!

[@catofsnow_]

I kid you not, I've just discovered this amazing series yesterday, and was devastated when I realized it only had 2 episodes; guess what showed up on my recommendation today!

[@Anipalooza]

It's like fate! 😆Glad to hear KZbin recommended it to you!

[@KGaming-7z]

@@Anipalooza Hello, really good tutorials as i just started with Spine pro, any chance to make more videos?

[@CartoonCoffee]

The star vs tree rigging concept was brilliant! Really blew my mind to hear it broken down like that

[@Anipalooza]

It took me soo long to come up with a good way to explain where to put the first bone! I'm glad it works

[@EchelonTheCat]

Wow, you're amazingly skilled at summarising a lot of information (while still being clear to understand) in a small amount of time! Thanks for this!

[@ohitsallama]

This is a GREAT tutorial in an ocean of hard-to-follow Spine tutorials

[@ohitsallama]

But where is part 4?

[@SoloparafocasxD]

Your tutorials are the best Spine Tutorials I've seen, keep up with this I really hope you get the attention you deserve for these really high-quality videos

[@Anipalooza]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoy them! :D

[@tamaradelic4568]

Think these are BEST spine tutorials for beginners. I love how you explain things - so clear and digestible for beginners

[@WilliamButlerAnimator]

I just gotta say that I love all your content and it's really helped me to learn and feel better as an animator. I'm really hoping there will be more parts to these tutorials, only because they're so fun and helpful and they're my favorite thing to learn Spine from atm (:

[@eludingSirens]

You're voice is easy to listen to and you made a quality to follow tutorial with very quality info. The TLDR is nice as well. KZbin is seriously missing decent spine tutorials.

[@Anipalooza]

Thanks for the kind words! ✨

[@justinwhite2725]

4:27 'your programmer will hate you for it' As a programmer, yes. Yes we will. That bone is the foundation for placement and basically if you animate it it wont move on our end and everything else will move relevant to it which is super wonky snd completely the opoosite of what either of us want.

[@zayarnaing6025]

This is the best series - short, compact and all in one knowledge. I'm looking forward to the Part 4, 5 , 6 ... I love your explanation style . Thank you so much . May God bless you.

[@naridraws]

This series is awesome! The production is insane, the explanation is the best, and I hope you can continue teaching through these videos. Perhaps KZbin isn't the best platform to deliver it to a huge audience, but they are exquisite learning tools!

God woman how cool you are, even though I knew almost everything a long time ago and almost do not understand English, the way you explain everything cool is just super, you are great, thank you

[@Anipalooza]

Aww well thank you! Happy to hear it's clear, especially when so many folks in the Spine community speak so many different languages! I'd love to make these translated some day into other languages.

[@ruthz9515]

These Spine2D tutorial have been very helpful. And they are, to me possibly the best Spine2D tutorial I could find out there. I don't know what happened and what took you so long but I'm here to let you know that we'll be waiting for part 4 forevermore.

Then i got busy but I'm back on it and I'm so relieved to see that the community of People producing helpful content had increased since i tried last time

[@Anipalooza]

I'm glad you're back to it! I remember having that same problem when I started learning 5 years ago. I had to learn a lot of what I know on the job instead!

Great video! Would be nice to see more of it. Like the next part and then the full animation process. At least for idle . Spine really lacks nice and beginner friendly tutorials. Like it's some obscure niche program and not an industry standard, which it is.

[@CastleClique]

thanks, this was really useful

[@shirecoding2440]

my images are not moving when the bones are moved, is there a missing step of the mesh?

[@Anipalooza]

Yes, this video doesn’t cover meshes so your images won’t move at this stage. By now you’ve probably already figured it out, but you can create meshes using the “mesh” check box in the tree view, then after you’ve made the mesh use the weights window to bind the bones to the mesh!

[@redsoulheart5040]

Please upload part 4. I don't know how to connect my bones to the images and other videos are a bit to complicated to understand.

[@anded8798]

Isn't it easier to ctrl click images when you create bones so they are automatically assigned?

[@kvartz]

Very useful! Great video!

[@siv9394]

Hii Anipalooza! I just learned that you can show the commands that you are using. Maybe you already know this, but perhaps if you're done beginner guides this can be helpful. You can show the hotkey popups by pressing `ctrl + shift + K` (for MacOS, `cmd + shift + K`). If you want to hide them, press `ctrl + shift + K` again. Thanks again for your videos 🙇‍♀.

[@quinnweston4329]

Hi Anipalooza! Your videos have been super helpful! Do you have any advice or documentation on how to make character controls for facial features, which appear off to the side? The way you have it set up at 2:06. Thank you!

[@Anipalooza]

Hi! I don't have it documented just yet (one day!) but it involves constraining bones from the face to the bones off to the side. For the eyes for example, I created the eye bones on top of the face to move the mesh, duplicated those bones (without the mesh weighting), and then put them off to the side. Then the bones at the face are targeting the bones off to the side with transform constraints on their location and rotation. Hope that makes sense!

Question, I have imported my images and they already sit in the root, do i leave them there and add a skeleton over the top?

[@Anipalooza]

Yup! If your images are already in the spot you want them to be in relation to the root, then you can just start making the skeleton.

[@guilherme-anotherdayinpara1163]

You skipped a lot of steps, like saying you have to click the root bone to create bones properly connected to it.
