A script that renders selected Anime Studio project file into a png-sequence.

To install just download the script and copy it to your Nautilus script folder and make it executable (chmod +x renderAS-file_to_png-seq).

To use it just select your .anme-file, right-click and run the script. The file is now rendered to a png-sequence in a folder beside the AS-file.

A script that renders selected Anime studio project file into a movie for previewing you animation.
(Intermediate image sequence and audio file is created, but deleted after the movie is rendered.)

To install just download the script and copy it to your Nautilus script folder and make it executable (chmod +x AS_file-info).

To use it just select your .anme-file, right-click and run the script. The file is now rendered to a medium quality, halfsize, mp4 movie file called preview-render.mp4 in the same folder as the .anme.

Unfortunately none of the batch import scripts work in linux and when drag-and-dropping images you get a quite annoying question asking if you’d like to use the image as a tracing image or a normal image for each and every image.

There’s where my script comes in.
It’s a nautilus script that places every image layer you have selected into an .anme-file that you can import into your AS-scene.

To use it select all images you’d like to import and run the script from your right-click meny>scripts. You get a question about which type of layer you’d like to place the images in; Group, bone or switch.
Now it can take a few seconds if you’ve got many images. When done you’ve got a file called “image-export.anme” in the same folder as the images that you can import into your AS-scene.

To install the script place it in your nautilus scripts-folder, ./.gnome2/nautilus-scripts, or by right clicking in nautilus and select >scripts>open scripts folder.
Then make it executable by running “chmod u+x ImagesToAnme.sh” in terminal.

I wrote a small script that gives you info about a selected AS file which I find quite useful at times.

To install just place the script in your Nautilus scripts folder and make it executable (chmod +x AS_file-info).
To use it right-click on the file and select scripts>AS_file-info.

update: now works with Anime Studio 6.

Select an image layer and run this script, the image is then opened in Gimp for editing. After you’re done the image gets updated to the edited version.

Installation: Place the script in your /scripts/menu/Image -foder.

With Linux it should work out of the box.

With Windows you may have to change the path to your Gimp-installation in the script if Gimp doesn’t start when you run the script. Just open it up with a text-editor and change the path where I’ve noted.
