Planar Lava Effect
A few years ago i saw a great red and green gradient lava effect. I am aware that it was made using sin and cos interference, but am wondering where i could start with this. Searching google for words like lava effect etc send me to lava lamp sites. I am more after a fullscreen effect. If anyone can point me to a theory page, or give a name to the effect i'd be grateful. I am hoping to implement the effect using the drawing api and some dynamic masking, the red/green contrasting being replaced by subtler shades. Drexthepimp

Lava Effect
Hi, I dont know if anyone's had a go at this sort of thing but what I'd like to do is have a sort of lava effect like you'd see in a lava lamp. I have no idea how to go about this though so any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks!
Lava Lamp Effect :/
lo everyone, i ve been trying to build this website for a mate and i have a pretty cool idea of how everything is going to be... however, i m having a prob creating the background. Idealy i d like it to look like the inside of a lava lamp (ie two gradient filled floating circles that move randomly on the stage that can merge or morph...etc) think of it as two drops of water in space or something.
neways, i m quite proficient in using flash (mx atm) and i know it would involve a lot of code (random movement, interaction, etc) so i wanna know if there's an easier way to go about it.
If ne1 has done something similar or nose nething that could be of help plz drop me a line.
thanx
Lava Lamp Effect
I'm looking to make sort of a lava lamp like effect as an animation to be displayed in a bar. It should display random floating blobs that flow into and absorb each other and then split back up. Has anybody ever seen this sort of thing made in actionscript? Can't seem to find any tutorials out there...
I'm not a very good coder, but it needs to be in code cause it's displayed on a computer with about 20 screens that make up 'one desktop' if you understand my point. Also it would have to run more than 5 hours straight without repeating...
Can anyone help me?

3D Planar Movement
Anybody know how to generate code that recreates realistic 3d movement? So that as you move the mouse up you move towards things, down away, etc?
I've been trying to work out the physics behind it, but I can't wrap my head round it.
Lava Lamp
hi All,
Merry Christmas!
I am wondering if anyone knows or know of a tutorial I can learn from to set up a lava lamp toy using Flash MX's new drawing API fucntions.
Could someone show me how or point me to an example?
Thanks in advance.

Lava Lamp Assignment
http://www.bosscomp.com/upload/lava.swf
http://www.bosscomp.com//upload/moo3.fla
This is a lava lamp assignment I am currently working on. Still alot I want to do with it in terms of making it look better... which is why I'm here!
1. How can I make the blobs look better? Like makign it look more 3D or having a good lighting effect on them?
2. When you use an actual lava lamp, suppose the blobs are floating, but then you turn it off.. then the blobs eventually come back down. Would this be possible to do in Flash with what I currently have right now? If not, are there alternatives to this which are not as good but acheive a similar goal to this?
Thanks for your help.
Project: Lava Lamp
Hello I am working on a project, and I'm planning to make a flash lava lamp.
I am currently working on the "giving heat to the blobs" part of the project.
Currently it looks something like this:
Link
And the code:
ActionScript Code:
var b:Bitmap = new Bitmap();
addChild(b);
var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(550,400);
var ct:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform;
var rect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(5,5,5,5);
bd.fillRect(bd.rect,0xffff0000);
import flash.display.Stage;
stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
rect.width = 1;
rect.height = rect.width;
b.bitmapData = bd;
var sprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
//mc.graphics.beginFill(0xff0000);
mc.graphics.drawCircle(0,0,1);
//mc.graphics.endFill();
sprite.addChild(mc);
this.addChild(sprite);
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rs);
var dist:Number = 25;
function rs(e:Event):void{
for(rect.x=mouseX-dist;rect.x<mouseX+dist;rect.x++){
for(rect.y=mouseY-dist;rect.y<mouseY+dist;rect.y++){
var dist2:Number = Point.distance(new Point(mouseX,mouseY),new Point(rect.x,rect.y));
if(dist2<dist){
/*var newPixel:uint = bd.getPixel( rect.x , rect.y );
var red:Number = newPixel>>16&0xff;
var green:Number = newPixel>>8&0xff;
var blue:Number = newPixel&0xff;*/
//ct.redOffset = 255;
ct.greenOffset = 5 * (dist-dist2) ;
bd.colorTransform(rect,ct);
}
}
}
bd.draw(sprite);
ct.greenOffset = -2;
bd.colorTransform(bd.rect,ct);
}
So...
In the next part of the project I will generate some randomly shaped blobs of liquid and place them in a movie.
And then they will find out the amount of yellow inside to get the average "temperature" of the blob, and then the upwards acceleration of the blobs will be determined. So if the blob is relatively hot, it will flow upwards, if it's low, it will flow downwards. As it gets higher, the blob will lose some heat. Touching another blob will exchange some heat and other lava-lamp'ish stuff will happen.
Do you think I should do it with pixels? (like above) or do you think I should use "normal flash stuff" ?
Is my method of displaying "heat" good? Or could I use another way?
(I will transfer heat through convection and conduction, but not radiation, that would be difficult to emulate heh..)
Any kind of help is welcome.

Moving Clouds/Object Outline Effect/Buttons Effect - Please Help Me Help My Friend
I've neglected flash for years, mainly because it seems extremely confusing. I've tried to get into it, but it's confusing with 50 different objects in the flash project going on at once, how do you work with all that?
Anyway, I'm doing a website for a friend of mine, and I had this really cool idea that I've seen around and would like to add on to this and give him a nice surprise.
Basically I would like to add a moving clouds loop in the background, similar to this: http://www.templatemonster.com/websi...ates/9630.html
then have an outline effect of the house like this: http://www.templatemonster.com/websi...ates/5488.html
and finally add an effect to the buttons like this: http://www.templatemonster.com/websi...ates/6361.html
(actually I'd be fine with any button effect )
And I'd be happy with just the cloud effect lol. I looked around for tutorials but none of them seem to be what I'm looking for.
This is the header I'm working with, it is layered in Photoshop: http://tecmosuperbowl.net/header.jpg
I would like the clouds to blend in with the blue background gradient, but I don't know how to do this, in Photoshop it's Overlay. I've tried Alpha in flash, but all that does is change the opacity.
I'm not sure where to start, I doubt I could get this in for him in time, but it'd be great. (Sunday is when the site goes live ) Thanks for helping!
How Do I Change The TextArea Component OnFocus Green Outline Effect? I Can See The Same Effect On This Text Input Box
Hi All,
I have a textArea. When I click on the tab key, the focus shifts to the textArea. And along with this a green outline comes around the textArea. How can I avoid the textArea outline color? IS there any way I can modify this?
I had once modified the checkBox component styles by editing a swf. Later I loaded this swf to the flash library. Can i do it something like that?
Will I have to use some AS code for this?
Can anyone help me out.
Thanks in advance:

Timeline Effect Same Effect Multiple Images Layout
I'm trying to use the timeline effect on some transparent .png or gif file's...
All I want to do is create say a 100 frame effect... have it fade in at the beginning and out at the end for .png 1.
Then be able to re-use the effect without having to step back through the timeline effects creator dialogue for .png 2 and so on...
In other words I want to create multiple movie clips all w/ the same animation timeline... and then have them easy to edit on the main timeline maybe overlapping a little etc.
Also the client will probably want to tinker w/ adding new images and suggesting which one's should go first in the fade in and out string of animation's which take place simply one at a time on the stage.
Here's a basic link for what I've got.... the machine images should be easily changed maybe even loaded as a seperate .swf or something:
MLS Machines flash intro
The main priority being the main movie timeline should be easy to edit w/ the movieclips... this is prolly a newbie question, but I'm having trouble keeping this simple, for editing in the long run...
Help please.
Thanks.
Sparkle Image Effect And Button Sound Effect
Im trying to figure out how to make sparkle effects to images. Im new to this let me say first off but im not new to web design and htmls.
I also wanna know the button sound effect code. On 50 cent.com everytime you move over a link there is a gun cocking sound and then when you click the link it makes a gun shot noise. How was this achieved?
Ripple Effect Or Browser Shake Effect (?HOW?)
Hi all,
Once again I'm stumped !!
I have a movieclip, that contains information about a clients web site(to be used on our company site in the portfolio).
I built a timer to fade the movie clip in.
As it fades in I would like to create a ripple effect.
I've looked at the java applet "Lake" and found I didn't want to use it.
Is there anyway I can build it in flash with AS ?
Also, if it looks awful, How do I create the browser shake effect, but only put it on a specific movie clip ?
Many Thanks,
vglcrew
P.S. Cheers Lucifer_morning_star for all your help last time.
Starlight Effect And Zoom Into Jpeg Effect
Greetings!
I am interested in creating two effects:
One is the starlight that runs across the top of text or objects like what you see for Dolby Surround Sound, the Alliance (film) logo also ends with a similar effect.
Two, is I'd like a movie where the viewer "goes into a jpeg" al la zoom on a gradual basis then fade out. The effect of course would be as if the viewer was entering a scene (but of course the pixelation would obviously obscure the closer you got in).
Thanks!
Blur Effect? And Mouse Trail Effect?
does anyone know how to do similar effect as on this website: http://ladyinthewater.warnerbros.com/ ??? if u go to cast and crew part of the website and move cursor over the picture it looks like someone was touching the screen. any ideas plz?
[CS3] Please Help Lightbox Effect+Trunami Effect=trouble [CS3]
Hello, I've been working on this for awhile and just can't figure this out. On my old portfolio site I, on the portfolio page, I have a column on links using the tsunami effect to project the selected project JPG into the space beside it, then clicks the JPG to display a SWF via a lightbox effect. The problem is that if anyone using it doesn't click the close button to close the lightbox effect and simply clicks another project from the list the dimensions of the SWFs get messed up. I have tried to figure this out for a long time and just am not able to do this. An example of my problem is at http://www.pwmulder.com/index-old.html and I would greatly appreciate ANY help with the matter. I have brought my concern to other flash developers and they're as stumped as I am, and I'm starting to think that there is no way to resolve this. Another minor concern is the changing framerates of the flash shell versus the individual SWFs but that is secondary. Can anyone please help me?

Can't Figure Out This Effect...corner Lay Down Effect

I can't figure out how to accomplish the effect used when the images come in. It appears to be something with either the alpha of the image or alpha gradient overlay...but I just can't figure it out.
Any ideas?
HELP About Alpha Effect/ Tint Effect
please go to this link to download my file first:
http://www.geocities.com/linhm01/help.fla
I am doing on a project by doing a flash and now I am having a big big problem that I have no idea how to deal with. I hope someone here can help me.
Let me tell you what do I expect to see in my flash first.
I seperated some objects (ie. trees, recycle bin, light) by turning them into buttons. For each botton, later I would like to have some descriptions nearby.
I would like when people "mouseover" a button, everything (except the button) will be alpha or tint. That is to let people concentrate on the object that their mouses are over on.
I have made three buttons with the same alpha/tint effect in the .swf file attached. They are (trees), (light), and the (recycle bins).
Here are the procedures:
1: I made the trees into one button, and add effect
2: I made the light into one button, and add effect
3: I made the recycle bins into one button and add effect
but the outcome is that:
when i mouseover the tree: (i made this button 1st)
it turns out that all the buttons (3 buttons) can be seen clearly, while i expect that only TREE can be seen clearly and all others (including the buttons= recycle bins and the light) should be covered with "alpha" effect.
when i mouseover the light: (i made this button 2nd)
it turns out that 2 buttons can be seen clearly (while the 1st button i made, tree, is with alpha effect)
when i mouseover the recycle bin: (i made this button the last)
it is what i expected. that all buttons and everything are with alpha effect, except the recycle bin
i hope someone here can tell me the solution to solve it, thank you very much.
Text Effect - Masking Effect
Hello; I was on the site when I spotted a tutorial on a text effect, here.
I followed the tutorial and I got the desired effect and it worked perfectly! I then used the same effect on a project as it was perfect for what I wanted... I then tried to publish the flash (.swf) file and load it (just for a quick test) and to my surprise instead of having nice faded text, instead I got a huge white block that was used in the layer below the text for the masking. I couldn't see the scrolling text at all! It works perfectly fine if I go "Control -> Play".
Is there a publish setting I've got to enable? Another observation is that I get the same incorrect display when asking "Test Movie".
Please help!
Thanks in advance.
Cursor Effect To Object Effect
Hi
in a nut shell I have found this wicked piece of open source actionscript.
It responds to the cursor and was wondering if it is posible to modify the x_position and y_position actions and make the action respond to a moving object???? (a movieclip with a variable name)
is this to complicated to attempt or is it doable??

Smoke Effect, Hmm, More Like Dust Effect
well, I'm trying to make a shape feels like it's drops down on the floor in Flash MX, and want some dust flying out when the shape drops on the floor, I don't want to do it by animaiton,
I know there's some way to make the smoke(dust) effect by coding,
like radomly moving thin lines in circle or duplicate mc to make it liiks like smoke coming out, is there any code examples?...
thank you for your time...
Text Effect - Masking Effect
I've followed a tutorial on a nice text effect that caught my eye, that I found here.
It works fine if I go "Control -> Play"; but if I try to publish it, instead of nice faded text effect, I just see the huge white block with the alpha linar gradient top and no text scrolling whatsoever! It's not only when I publish it, but also when I ask it to "Test Movie"... The only time it works is when I ask Flash 8 to Play the animation. I'm guessing I've missed something simple like a publish setting... But I'm a real n00b and need some help!
Thanks in advance.
HOW? >> Scroll Menu With Proximity Effect And Fluid Scroll Effect...
Hi all,
I'm a rookie action scripter who needs the help from someone who knows it backwards.
I want to create a thin horizontal menu for a simple site.
I need this bullet shape to follow the mouse movement along the X axis - simple enough.
When you click on one of the menu options the bullet will then smoothly scroll to that option and sit behind it. It must seem to click into a position so it is centre aligned behind the menu option.
As soon as you start moving the mouse again, no movement will happen until you get outside the shape the bullet then it will start following the position of the mouse again...
Do you know of any examples out there that may put me on the right path. Or any quickly lines of script you could pass along.
Thanks.

Could anyone help me out please?

8-Bit Effect
I am trying to make a Megaman parody, but whenever I break apart the graphics (to get rid of the stuff around the character), it goes from blocky to smooth. I want a blocky effect without backgruond material in the way.
<PRE>
EG:
I have this as a BMP:
.......
...O...
..|/..
...|...
../...
.......
I would like this:
0
|/
|
/
but when I break it apart, I get this:
(O)
\|//
|||
// \
</PRE>
This is probably kinda distorted becuase of the post.

FK had a cool header/footer (whatever you wanna call it) and it had an effect that had verticle lines that would go at an angle sometimes and it would be at random spots jumping from one spot to the next and it made it look like an old fashioned movie. If anyone knows what I'm talking about and knows how to do it, could you PLEASE help me, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
How To Do This Effect?
Pls download an swf file at http://xzxz.hypermart.net/drag.swf (maybe your browser will open the swf file directly in IE).
When you open the file, you'll see a circle. It's draggable. That's not surprising. But wait, you try dragging the circle, and then suddenly release mouse button. It will move by itself and gradually decelerates. The speed of the movement depends on how fast you drag it. I know how to make the deceleration effect, and I also know how to make the circle bounce off the 4 sides. But how to make the circle move by itself when the mouse button is released while still dragging?
For anyone who wishes to help poor little me , I hope you won't refer me to any tutorials, because it's no use if I don't understand the code (I'm not that good in Maths or Physics). So if you wanna display the source code here, would you mind adding as many comments as possible (so that I understand what every line of code is doing)? Thanks!
