Microscope View
Ahem!

Behold! The first wa.com AVS forums *exclusive* preset from me! :D

Wow... now that was special :rolleyes:

Basicly a preset with some neat buffer and blend tricks, a rather undynamic at the moment (no flow), but looks pretty cool :)

Feedback is always welcome, because this isn't the final version (i hope)


Oh yeah and try to add an invert to make it purple! Looks pretty nifty that way too.

that's...neato ^_^ i think it needs a bit more color variation, tho. i attached a color remix...

Pretty nice there. I liked it better without the colour changes, sorry Atero.

Wow, I love it. Can't wait to see it after you make it flow

Raz

Very nice effect, be even better if it flows.

Aww :( *tear, tear*

Nice use of the colour map Atero but the original looks better, im not sure why. Crap, Atero's goin soft on us, :p

Pretty cool indeed. I think I've saw effect like this somewhere before...could have been Evilrice..... Anyway, looks good & I can't believe that You used green :P (and it even looks good ;) )

3dino, Wrong thread? :weird: :p

Anyway, here is an uptaded version Microscope View.
The original feeling&idea is pretty much gone, but it now has a flow dm and a onbeat flash XOR which looks pretty darn good if you get a good framerate :D

anubis2003

23rd January 2003 14:33 UTC

It looks alright, but for some reason I don't really like it. I guess I was expecting something a bit different. The DM is real nice though.

Raz

23rd January 2003 16:38 UTC

wow, i like that green for some reason. I usually hate something with lime green in it but that really is nice, looks like a crack and holes appearing, looks a little grainy at points but otherwise great.

Tuggummi

24th January 2003 06:03 UTC

Yeah, well not anyone likes XOR (i don't like it either most of the time) and that dm did take the original idea away... But to me it seems that it's not possible to make it flow without killing the original idea...

anubis2003

24th January 2003 06:08 UTC

Here's some ideas:
Since it's supposed to be a microscope, try throwing a lens effect on it and having it zoom in and out and rotate around. This could turn it into a complete preset without destroying the original feel.

Tuggummi

24th January 2003 06:51 UTC

WHOA! HEy! Do you even know me? I CAN'T CODE! Fux... All my code is just random stuff thrown together so don't expect me to code any lenses, rotations, or whatnots...

But i'll try to figure out something like that... thanks for the tip.

anubis2003

24th January 2003 14:14 UTC

Alright Tugg. I'll try working on it. I've never done lenses in AVS, but I know the mechanics behind how they work. I think I'm going to go tear apart Atero's lens right now to clear some things up and then I might start working on it. And i'm sure you know how to zoom in and out, don't you? And rotate?

nixa

24th January 2003 18:44 UTC

I think you can get a lens by x=1/(1/f+1/x);y=1/(1/f+1/y); where f is focus distance

anubis2003

24th January 2003 19:22 UTC

that doesn't seem to work nixa. It mainly just moves the image down and to the right.

Tuggummi

24th January 2003 22:29 UTC

Well h erer is a uptaded version of the preset, i mean an uptade of an uptade.. or maybe it¨s a second version of the first version so itrs an alternative uptade or something... anyway im at a friends place drinking beer so i can't really chat anymore... oh and the dynamove is ripped off from "Tuggummi - Lens Flare" preset which w2as in his response paqck so sorry for ripping off his work!!!!!!! who the hell he ever is... makes good presets though.,,.. although he can't code rfor sure... losetr... heheheh....

anyway... let's see if i can move the mouse correctly to get the damn attachment to the post... whee hihihihi....


Oh Happy Happyu joy jouy! I clicked the mouse button!!!!!

Tuggummi

24th January 2003 22:32 UTC

Oh and yes i can code zsooming and rotat0r.... those are sImpLE!

Damn.., tooo drunk to use the edit feature... so don't bitch me about it Atrreo! You skanky ho! Atero is a... uhm.... eeeh... well his mah bitch and that should dooi t! muahhahaha!!!

anubis2003

25th January 2003 00:50 UTC

I like it, but there seem to be a few glitches with the lens(or are the edges supposed to look like that?). I like it, though. Try making the lens focus in a little more you can barely tell it is zooming at all.

...jukka, you *need* some help.

Raz

25th January 2003 22:02 UTC

Atero, you're a stranger to the effects of alcohol arent you
not familiar with the ways of the booze :p

dirkdeftly

25th January 2003 23:25 UTC

alcohol disgusts me. every time i smell beer i feel like vomiting

Raz

25th January 2003 23:49 UTC

fair enough, alcohol isnt just beer though you know.

UnConeD

26th January 2003 00:50 UTC

I'd vomit too if the only beer I knew was crap like Budweiser or Heineken...

Raz

26th January 2003 05:53 UTC

Ok enough one line posts about beer

Jaheckelsafar

26th January 2003 08:51 UTC

Yeah. It's all about single malt scotch whiskey on the rocks. :)

Tuggummi

27th January 2003 07:03 UTC

Yeah, i don't think it is an actual "lens" just a lens-kinda trick with x&x+y&y i learnead way back from degnic&jdm... Anyway i don't know how to make it otherway and the edges are looking like that because it needs a really big grid size to look smooth, also the blocky movement gets smoother the higher grid size you use.

Currently the lens: Changes it's size, zooms between 0.5-1, flips on beat the lens screen (if random is true, otherwise not) and pumps j00 ass.

I'll take the "more zooming please" under consideration, but i don't like heavy zooming, because it gets very blurry&pixelated.



And with beer... well i guess the old saying is quite true: The first one tastes bad and the last one is always too much! :D

Hey Atero havent U ever drinked alcohol?
It disgusts U..... Hahahaha sad for you!
U just dont know what feeling is that (well day after that u will say: "Ill never drinc again". Well until the next time :D).
BTW
Atero ppl who drinc little live longer than the ppl who dont drinc! ;)
Vodka is the best!

I'll be sure to remind you of that when a drunk driver hits you at eighty miles an hour in a school zone, jackass.

Tuggummi

28th January 2003 06:17 UTC

Well i don't LOVE beer, but i can drink it ;)

My fav drink is Jägermeister+battery, mmmm like drinking limonade :)


btw. Wow, now i know what it feels like to be "off-topic"nized :D (not that it bothers me, it's always nice to fiend a LAME excuse to increase the forum post count which doesn't show anymore...)

As to drinking and driving, only idiots do it. People should know their limits, and the people thay hang with should know whether to let their friends go or not. It why here, the host is resposible for drunk party goers after they leave his/her house/bar/BBQ/whatever

Tuggummi:
Jägermeister+battery ----- Dont drinc it 2 much, its dangerous U know, like poison, makes ur heart beat faster, blood presure(spelling) goes hi etc. ...
And the ppl who drinc AND drive are total idiots...
Atero dont U call me Jackass

Tuggummi

28th January 2003 13:09 UTC

Jack, only swedish people die to it :blah: and it was Jägermeister+red bull that killed the couple of swedish (athlethics was it?) guys a year back or so... I think it has something to do with Taurin (or how do you spell it in english) that red bull has. As i know it Battery only has caffeine.

Jaak

28th January 2003 13:57 UTC

Heh yea, basic chemistry, kind of same as the drugs are with alcohol.
Hmmm, was it red bull, ok maybe...
At the partyes the first ppl who are under the table are swedish. Heh, they just cant drinc (most of them).
We, estonians are close to sweaden but we got more russian blood in us and the blood of the russian is like antidote for alcohol.

Raz

28th January 2003 16:50 UTC

My fav drink is just plain old anything that i can lay my hands on with alcoholic content :). Now hows about some avs weve heard enough about drinks and red bull and driving and content and chemistry and other magic things. Just a suggestion thats going to be ignored from me.

dirkdeftly

28th January 2003 18:59 UTC

Jack, don't "U" call me a loser, nor imply it. I have absolutely no repsect for people who drink like bitches then brag about it :hang:

Am I the only one that gets wierd symbols instead of uncommon charachters (things you have to do with the number pad or charachter map or foreign keyboards) and then the next letter missing entirely? I.e. the I get a wierd face instead of the umlauted a *and* the e that follows it....

Jaak

28th January 2003 19:47 UTC

Mh? eeeh? Me called U loser :eek:, well sorry if I expressed myself wrong, I really didnt ment it (whatever it was), lots of ppl dont dirnc, its theyr choice....

just felt like showing some of the crap alt and the numpad can do 'cause i was really bored, im sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you (btw, bitching about it was a pointless post too :p) but lets not argue about such minor minor things...

anubis2003

28th January 2003 21:22 UTC

Hey, just trying to stop you and Jack from carrying on a pointless conversation.:p It doesn't really matter, though, this thread seems to have loss most of its relevancy. About 20 posts on alcohol. Couple more on useless posts.
Back on topic, I'm still trying to figure out the lenses, and I've made a couple, but I wasn't pleased with them. I think I might need to do some more research on them.

Tuggummi

29th January 2003 07:05 UTC

Anubis, it's real nice to hear that someone cares about this thread even though it was i and my drunkyness that started the whole non-sense posting :(

Well i have decided that v3 is the last version of this preset and im not going to uptade it anymore. (i did made some slight editing to it, but nothing radical) This preset will be now added to Finnish Flash 6 as an "exclusive" preset.

Take care people, as i see it there is no point posting anything to this thread anymore, avs or even alcohol related :p
