Basic Workflows (New for 7.31)

Step 1a: Exporting Interactive Assets from Menu and Panels

If you want to export the current project only, then you may follow the steps below; otherwise, you can do the batch export with the Content Manager as described in the Step 1b:

1. Create a custom project.
2. Click the Interactive button on the tool bar to open the panel.
   
3. Alternatively, you may access the panel by the menu, Interactive >> Export Interactive Assets.
   
4. Adjust the settings in the Exporting Interactive Assets panel before exporting the assets mentioned in the previous section.

   Note:

   Please refer to the Exporting Interactive Assets Panel Introduction section for more information about the settings in the panel.

5. Click the Export button to export assets.

   Note:

   In accordance with the settings in the panel, the asset files you can get are: Project (*.uctproject) Actor (*.uctmodel) Idle Motion (*.uctidle) Script (*.uctscript) Motion Clip (*.uctmotion) The prefix "u" in the extension names means the assets are CrazyTalk formats dedicated for Unity Player.

Step 1b: Batch Exporting from the Content Manager

CrazyTalk Interactive Plug-in also provides a batch exporting method for you to quickly export multiple assets at once via the Content Manager. It is fast in terms of exporting large amounts of content, however you can not adjust any export settings for the assets as you do in Step 1a:

1. Execute Interactive >> Quality Settings.
   
2. Choose the radio buttons to determine the quality for the files about to be batch exported.
   
3. Switch to one of the content libraries listed below in the Content Manager (in this case, the Project template library).

   Note:

   The libraries with the content that can be batch exported are: Project (template or custom libraries) Actor >> 01_Model (template or custom libraries) Auto Motion >> 03_Idle (template or custom libraries) Voice Script >> Script >> Sample (template library) Voice Script >> Script (custom library) Motion Clip (template or custom libraries)

4. Select one or more template files.
   
5. Right click on either of the selected files to show the right-click menu.
   
6. Choose the command, Export Interactive Assets, in the menu.
7. Browse the exported assets with the system browser.

Step 2: Uploading Assets to Domain

After the assets are exported, you may then upload them to your favorite domain:

1. Upload the assets to the web domain you have access to.
2. Copy the addresses or the paths of the assets.

   Note:

   Please refer to the Managing Interactive Assets section for more information about the limitations and notifications for uploading assets.

Step 3: Copying and Pasting Addresses or Paths to a Custom Web Page

As soon as you get the addresses or the paths of the uploaded assets, you may then embed these assets into your custom web pages:

1. Prepare a web page coded with html.
2. Open the page with your favorite text editor.
3. Copy and paste necessary code into the page.

   Note:

   Please refer to the Managing Interactive Assets section for more information about the limitations and notifications for uploading assets.

4. Change the addresses or the paths to the ones of the uploaded assets you have obtained from the previous steps. Save and close the page.

   Note:

   Please also refer to the JavaScript Sample Codes for more details of using JavaScript codes to increase the flexibility and creativity of using your assets by setting attributes to the web player.

5. Open the page with browser to view the result.
