[Animate CC vs hand coding]

I guess not at all lol

[Adding particle effects to Banner (Beginner)]

Ok...

Did you managed to get this to work in a banner? I have been making banners for a year now using Animate CC only and I am so struggling with getting Particles into a banner while keeping the whole ting under 150kbs :(

Well that is great to know, Animate CC has great animation properties but it really lacks elements such as Parralax and other extra elements I think can only be implemented with hand written code. So I will keep a look here and download Anivendo this onto a PC and try it out

[Animate Commons is out with a free extension for Animate CC]

Is there anyway we can contact the creator to get this working? maybe some donations.. I stupidly rely on Animate CC for all of my banner ads and this would be a HUGE powerful tool to start implementing in my work

"When I first got into banners/Flash I found resizes to be tedious when using timeline animation."

 

I find resizing easy, because I enter the movieclip to change a text object from 300px to 160px. Movieclips are containers you just move. When I got creative from an agency, I had to convert to Rich Media, I was always annoyed if it wasn't using nested movieclips.

 

Between vector lockups simply being pasted and text no matter what the font being converted to shapes, I have almost no server requests and have had zip files under 20K.

 

I don't have tedious imports from PhotoShop because bitmaps are the exception not the norm. And it is rarely more than one. So I might have a small, medium and large over 8 sizes.

 

I was fast on Flash, so going back to Animate from Edge, I got the speed back.  It's the copying and pasting of frames and layers, and complex animations I like.

 

Then there is the publish templates. That is huge. I never touch the HTML file. And when I do it is easy to use CSS to add things like the youtube API player.

 

Plus Animate Commons came out with extensions. Someone with no timeline experience can do parallax, flexible and adaptive layout.

Is this still upto date? I could REALLY use these parralax effects,  I tried using these bu they seem to be out of date at present!

Can someone give me some feedback on this? I use Animate CC on a daily basis... is this still up and running and could you give me some Pros and Cons of both? I am currently on a mac so I cannot download and try yet!
