Converting Photoshop actions to SPE?

[elivarz Profile]

Hello! I'm Photoshop user too and I've created/collected a lot of actions for PS. In most cases image effect processing in both programms - SPE and PS - is the same - same adjustments, filters etc. etc. This will be very nice, if we can have a small soft - "PS action translator" for this. Then in SPE Effect editor we will need make only some changes/adjustments. Now recreating of all commands in SPE effect editor can take hours... Any ideas? Thanks, elivarz

I'm afraid that would be a huge job, as it would require duplicating large amounts of Photoshop and also dealing with their proprietary format for actions! So I'm afraid it's not going to happen soon.

Thanks for answer, Tony. One way I see, is save Photoshop action as txt file, to see all PS commands/etc in an action consecutively and the try reduplicate/change this all in SPE. One question more - how (in which format/language) and where are stored SPE effects (descriptions for)? For PS is possible using javascript - convert action file to XML file, edit using notepad and then using another javascript convert this edited file back to fully working PS action - atn file. Very easy and fast...

The SPE effects are stored in our own binary format.
