Licensing

This Spine Runtime may only be used for personal or internal use, typically to evaluate Spine before purchasing. If you would like to incorporate a Spine Runtime into your applications, distribute software containing a Spine Runtime, or modify a Spine Runtime, then you will need a valid Spine license. Please see the Spine Runtimes Software License for detailed information.

The Spine Runtimes are developed with the intent to be used with data exported from Spine. By purchasing Spine, Section 2 of the Spine Software License grants the right to create and distribute derivative works of the Spine Runtimes.

Spine version

spine-starling works with data exported from Spine 3.5.xx.

spine-starling does not yet support loading the binary format.

Usage

1. Create a new Starling 2.0 project as per the [documentation].
2. Download the Spine Runtimes source using git or by downloading it as a zip.
3. Copy the sources in spine-as3/spine-as3/src/ and spine-starling/spine-starling/src/ into your project's source directory

Example

The Spine AS3 example works on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. This guide assumes you are using FDT Free as your development environment.

1. Download FDT free for your operating system.
2. Download and install Adobe Flash Player 22 with debugging support](https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/debug_downloads.html#fp15)
3. Download the latest Flex SDK. We assume it will be installed to some folder on your disk called flex_sdk.
4. Download the latest Adobe AIR SDK
5. Extract the AIR SDK contents, and copy them to your flex_sdk folder. This will replace the Adobe AIR version shipped with Flex.
6. Open FDT, go to Preferences -> FDT -> Installed SDKs
7. Click Add and browse to flex_sdk
8. Go to File -> Import -> General -> Existing Projects into Workspace
9. Browse to spine-as3/. You should see both the spine-as3 and spine-as3-example project in the import dialog. Click Finish
10. Go to File -> Import -> General -> Existing Projects into Workspace
11. Browse to spine-starling/. You should see both the spine-starling and spine-starling-example project in the import dialog. Click Finish
12. Right click the Main.as file in spine-starling-example/src/spine in the FDT explorer and select Debug As -> FDT SWF Application

Note: FDT Free does not allow project dependencies. If you modify the sources of spine-as3 or spine-starling, you will have to compile the project to an .swc and place it in spine-starling-example/libs.
