ok I solved my problem

		vertices[idx++] = x1;
		vertices[idx++] = y1;
		vertices[idx++] = color;
		vertices[idx++] = u;
		vertices[idx++] = v;

	vertices[idx++] = x2;
	vertices[idx++] = y2;
	vertices[idx++] = color;
	vertices[idx++] = u;
	vertices[idx++] = v2;

	vertices[idx++] = x3;
	vertices[idx++] = y3;
	vertices[idx++] = color;
	vertices[idx++] = u2;
	vertices[idx++] = v2;

	vertices[idx++] = x4;
	vertices[idx++] = y4;
	vertices[idx++] = color;
	vertices[idx++] = u2;
	vertices[idx++] = v;

I would start by labelling the 'head' part, then in your code you can find the head slot

Slot slot = skeleton.findSlot("head");
		   Attachment attachment = slot.getAttachment();
		   if (attachment == null) continue;
		   if (!(attachment instanceof RegionAttachment)) continue;
		   RegionAttachment imageRegion = (RegionAttachment)attachment;
		   imageRegion.updateVertices(slot);
		   

	   TextureRegion tex = imageRegion.getRegion();

maybe you can turn the textureRegion into a physics object.

I don't know how to remove the head though.

I am using this code to check for collisions

if(new Polygon(imageRegion.getVertices()).contains(x, (-y + Globals.VIRTUAL_HEIGHT))){
				collided = true;

But I've discovered the vertice array has some null values and I don't understand the way they are stored in RegionAttachment class. How can I get a consecutive array of vertices for the imageRegion?

Sorry I should have put this in the libGDX section.

I ran into a problem using Spine with Photoshop's export to layers script. The script adds numbers to the file-names which can change when you add any layers to your model which means Spline can't find them. Rather than rename each individual layer I discovered you can easily edit the "export to layers to files" script to not add the extra stuff to the file-name.

http://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/10669/cs5-export-layers-as-files-no-number-sequence

You have to use unique names for each of your layers else they will get overwritten.

Thanks you are right. Github does not work as I expected and the source files were out of date.

Sorry for wasting your time.

I have updated to the latest nightlies and I am compiling the spine-libgdx from the github source but still having the problem

I have updated everything I can think of but I am getting this error.

Exception in thread "LWJGL Application" java.lang.ClassCastException: com.badlogic.gdx.utils.JsonValue cannot be cast to com.badlogic.gdx.utils.OrderedMap
at com.esotericsoftware.spine.SkeletonJson.readSkeletonData(SkeletonJson.java:88)

I've made no change to the code, just updated the json

Doh, thanks.

I hadn't updated the gdx-backend-lwjgl jars

So drawDebug draws with the bones

Hi, I am having a problem loading my animation into libgdx.

When I run as a Java application I receive an error relating to the line:
skeleton.drawDebug(renderer);
If I comment this line out, the animation loads. What does drawDebug do? and why is it failing?

Error:
