AS Fire

[pom]

A little piece of Actionscript that will create a nice fire effect :)

That's pretty awesome!

[unikrl8]

cool! :-)

[GreenLantern]

That's pretty cool, is it in use anywhere?

[GW02]

Haha, I don't know where it would be used, but if it were that'd be awesome.

[jerez_z]

well done. I tried doing one of those a while back but I kept getting an alpha glitch that made it look like crap....

[ramo_integ]

i tried to add th2 code with the MC to an existing movie and it bright red dot bouncing around....any ways on how to add this to an existing movie...??

[e-sarbak]

interesting and genious

[mlk]

If you tweak it a bit it can be used as vapour out of a mouth, i've seen it in several website.. extremely nice but right now my mac is trying to commit suicide =)

looks awesome! :thumb:

Wow cool! I've been trying to find a way to implement steam and I think with some color modification and transparency this could be the ticket! Thanks pom! :thumb:

[alzor]

useful for games and animation...or animation IN games.

[b.rich]

wow, nice job pom! :beer: Thanks for sharing with us.

[natronp]

yeah, fire/smoke effects are cool. once you use any kind of particle system, duplicate movie clips though it gets pretty processor intensive I
found it's hard to work them into other animations and not bog down CPUs!

okay how do you attach an .swf and have it play?

[GreenLantern]

I was playing around with this last night. I was attemping to change the color to blue and make it slow turn to white as it "went up"

However, I was completely unsuccessful. How would I go about doing this?

[lunatic]

I was doing that too. There are places to change the colors though the random generator in there doesn't always allow for predicting what you'll end up with. For example I changed the red to grey (to simulate steam) and ended up getting grery to yellow and then purple! :P There is a spot in the code that sets the yellow color - you can comment that out to remove one of the transitions.

I managed to get a neutral color and shrink it but I had problems with the placement. Seemed like when I changed the _x and _y (and the scale) it would start where i wanted it to but then jump to a different location for the rest of it. If you figure that out let me know!

Not too shabby pom... How ya been btw ? :)

[cr125rider]

I moded the file POM posted. I made it follow the mouse, size have a direct relationship with the ocellation size and turned down the amplitude/ocelllation, tookout the color changer and made it inside the MC (Less computer intensive I think). :D

EDIT: Oh yeah, and made it create twice the number of particles, sorry all the overheating computers out there...

[lunatic]

Sweet! :D

[GreenLantern]

Wow, that is cool.

Nice job modding that.

[cr125rider]

Thanks :D

[pom]

Wow, that killed my computer, but it's really much better :x Car to post an MX version? :)

[cr125rider]

Here you go!
