Hyper Smooth
Here is a nice new convolution trick i learnead yesterday night while making remixes for Jaheckelsafar check this topic.

Thought i should post a topic about it :D
The hypersmooth technique makes your flows incredible smooth and nice :D (atleast in my opinion)

Don't know though is the convolution filter "optimized", maybe someone can help me there?

Anyway, here is the technique, don't pay much attention to the preset, that's just something i whipped up in 15 minutes 5 minutes ago.

That's cool. I did something sort of like this some time ago, but this is better. I dont know a lot about Convo's. Cant give tips about optimazations :(

That's a nice blur. It looks pretty good to me. Pretty much the only ways to optimize a convo filter are to make is smaller and to use powers of 2 for the numbers.

best way to make convos faster is use powers of 2 anywhere you can and use the lowest ratio - you're using 2's all over the place where 1's do just fine :)

and by the by...you do know that if you draw a single dot, the thing shows up as a swastika? :confused:

That is a nice preset.

Atero, i am aware of that fact :) But im not drawing single dots here, am i? ;) Thanks for the help Atero, i'll try to see if it makes it faster :)
