Equipotential surfaces preset
Dancing charges!

It's not very dynamic yet (random movements each beat, nothing else), but I'm working on variable charge strengths. You may need to reduce the grid size of the DM to get a decent FPS on your computer.

Feel free to tell me how rubbish it is. :rolleyes:


[ Edit: I forgot to put 'Irrelevant - ' at the start of the preset name. Attatchment updated. ]

Wow, we got another non-n00b newcomer here! Hallelujah!

*ahem*

Quite nice, good beat detection, but not so much in visualization (But who the fuck cares anymore...)
It's a little on the boring side, and you may want to replace all those 1/sqrt with invsqrt (assuming you have the latest AVS).
Aspect ratio correction... nice, nice...

Great work for a first submission.

Nice Preset, it may not be that music reactive, but it looks really nice and is coded nicely.

Very nice... though you can do it much faster with a regular colormap ;). Try the attachment.

That is so elegantly coded. nice. :igor:

I think mine makes a nicer gradient, though (plus it is actually correct - there are actually infinite bands, and it spaces them correctly), and the FPS is about the same, so I'll stick with mine now I've done it. :p

Sigged. :cool:

Now with variable charges, pulled from getosc! (so it should be dimmer if the music's quieter)

the effect is realy cool. but the preset is kinnda empty with a black backround. And you could play with colors a bit.
