Character state change flashes Storyline 360
Sorry if this is a duplicate posts. Cannot find the original. Timeline cues for character change state. Looks good in preview, but in published there is a white moment, a between state changes of the character. I've tried the fixes I have seen in older threads. No go. I'll try to attach sample slide. Any new fixes I can try?
Hello! I submitted a support ticket and shared my file (case #03067539) but I thought it'd be helpful to also share with this thread.
I'm also experiencing flickers on my character states. I have a character with 4 states that changes depending on the state of a number variable (defined early on in the activity). The character state is supposed to happen as soon as the timeline starts on the slide (i.e., "change state of character to sad—if avatar=1—when timeline starts on this slide") but the user can noticeably see the state change. There is a quick flickering effect.
Is there a way around the state delay? For instance, is there a way to update the state of a character on ALL slides once the variable is set instead of updating the state on each slide?
Thanks in advance for the thoughts and ideas!
I appreciate you contacting the support team and sharing your .story file as well, Alaina. You should be hearing from someone soon.
I'm currently having this issue with a .png to .gif state character and gif to gif state character.
The first character's normal state is a png. When the user selects a certain point on the screen, the character moves along a motion path towards that point and switches states to a gif. When the character moves along the motion path, it often disappears for a whole second or more while viewing in Chrome.
The same issue happens with the second gif-to-gif character.
Has anyone else noted this issue resurfacing? Is anything being done to fix it?
