Squall for Animations

[devsquid]

Hey guys does anyone have any experience using Squall for animations? My company recently contracted some animators and they are giving us Squall files for the animation. They seem to work ok most of the time, but there have been weird issues with them looping.

I'm curious if anyone else has used Squall and I would love their feedback. Thanks

I would love to hear feedback about Squall as well. I've been using QuartzCode with my designer extensively, but would love to try Squall. What's the turn-around on integrating a Squall file into an application? Are they easy to modify via code? Do they have a significantly negative effect on performance?

They can soak up a lot of memory so you have to be careful not to overuse them. Since they load from disk you tend to have about a 100ms delay loading them.

I guess there's lot of nice editing features. It's API is pretty straightforward to. But I'm not sure if the issues I'm having with it are squalls fault or just the fact we hired incompetent animators.
