Move an Existing Project to Text Studio

Open Tools > Text Studio > Setup > Migration to compare Text Animator or TMPEffects markup with canonical Text Studio output. Review source-ranged diagnostics before copying or applying with Undo. Choose Open Guided Text Animator Migration when components, typewriter sounds and events, typing speeds, Playback assets, or simple style aliases also need migration.

The guided overview separates Already works, One-click steps, and Needs you. Run supported steps per card or per item, then inspect their live done states and searchable findings. Changes are additive: Text Animator components and assets remain, and generated assets default to Assets/Text Studio Migration. Preview representative content before following the removal checklist. Custom C# effects and actions, scripts that call the Text Animator API, and typed listeners need explicit manual adaptation.

  • Keep a source-control checkpoint before converting.
  • Resolve unsupported tags and aliases in the report instead of guessing.
  • Compare reveal timing, visible text, area grouping, and skip behavior.
  • Keep old and new components out of the same final text object.
  • Run Health Check after the last migrated scene.
