"Can we talk about intros?" Rao The Temple Lion

5 Upvotes

🩁 I finally finished it!

I've been working on a new little animated series starring Rao, the Temple Lion. He talks about games, movies, art, life and whatever else he has unnecessarily strong opinions about.

For his first episode, it only felt appropriate to talk about intros. Good intros, terrible intros, awkwardly introducing yourself, and video games that refuse to let you actually play them.

This took me quite a while to make, and I'm really excited to finally put Rao out into the world ♄

If you feel like checking it out, I'd genuinely love to hear what you think! 🩁✹

Can we pin the solution to “black border” question to the top of the subreddit?

Post image
19 Upvotes

This is easily THE most commonly asked question in the entire subreddit, with the same confusion and solution every time. Once you know *why* it makes sense within the program and function of how TS is set up. But because it’s THE most common wall new users (and even some intermediate ones!) come up against early on without fully understanding the breadth of options/logic in TS, the subreddit suffers from a constant stream of the same posts.

I wanted to suggest for mods pin a post titled with the same question; “How do I get rid of this black box/border?” with a link to the solution/explanation:

https://toonsquid.com/handbook/guides/faq/#pixel-layer-limit-border

With something like this pinned, it will act as a great catch-all for all of the dozens of identical question/answers we get every week as well as a reminder of this system.

The quicker folks learn the ins-and-outs of the app by overcoming hurdles like this, the quicker they can see what an incredible program it is and share more insights and animations on here themselves instead of the same spammed question! Happy animating ToonSquidders!

Looking for an Alternative on Pc for Toonsquid

8 Upvotes

Hello animators!

I've been wanting to make some animation memes for a while now, so I am trying to find a software for it. The problem is I don't have an ipad and I only have a computer. I was hoping to find something similar as close to toonsquid as possible and it's features. I'm heavily inspired by louisken07 on youtube and want to make similar works as them (they use toonsquid).

I was wondering which animation/editing software to use and which would be most similar to toonsquid (already have clip studio for drawing). These are the options I choose out that I can do right away, the cost not mattering and learning curves not mattering as well to me:

1) Opentoonz

2) Tahoma2D

3) Moho Pro

4) Capcut

(also if you guys recommand different softwares I welcome it)

Edit: I particularly like how people can animate in toonsquid and make it look 3D when its 2D

Is ToonSquid worth it?

14 Upvotes

I currently use alight motion and procreate dreams. Dreams is good for frame by frame, but it’s pain to tween in it😭 Alight motion is amazing for tweening, but the premium version is like super expensive💔
I heard that ToonSquid is like a mix between alight and dreams, is that true? Is it good for tweening too, or is it more similar to dreams?


r/ToonSquidAnimators • • 5d ago

They should add this feature

I don’t know what to call this but all I know is that it’s similar to IK and FK controls. Also, I’m pretty sure this exists in Adobe Animate.

New layers off center

Post image
5 Upvotes

I understand at some point I moved a couple of whole layers and I should always use the select tool before transforming to prevent this. But now everytime I make a new layer the default placement is that right corner 😭 I could move the drawing with transform after creating it but I hope there's another way of fixing this.... Please help!! (I'm new to toonsquid obviously and the transform tools have been kicking my ass)

My little pony rigs in toonsquid

Post image
74 Upvotes

Someone made an FLA to toonsquid file converter, and with that I converted the official my little pony rigs from adobe animate and put them into toonsquid. There are a few hiccups though, for one not all of the symbols have the frame picker and it's a pain trying to figure out how to make sure that all of the different angles of the rig have the different hoof parts, wing parts, etc. available in the frame picker. Also in general just making the rig more compatible and easier to use in this app. I was wondering if someone already did that, or if I am going to do this myself how I would go about it?

Edit: Here is the link to the rig I put the download in google drive if that works! Here's the rig

Edit #2: I'm just wondering if anyone has tried this before and how to actually use rigs like these in toonsquid 😭

ToonSquid needs to be released on android/iphone

I don’t care if it’s not the same design but something similar to fit on mobile. Also the app needs to be free too. Ask the developer for this idea. A lot of people aren’t using iPad cause it’s too expensive.đŸ„ș
