My 1st Preset, Well Sort Of

Hi all,

Really sick with the flu, can't wrap my brain around long division let alone the kind of fuzzy mathematics come trigonometry, come geometry, that is coding in AVS. Still I seem to be hopelessly addicted. I found myself downloading both TomyLobo's Triangle Rasterizer APE, and jaak's pack of presets.

Well the presets I found were well, more like elements of visualizations than visualizations. A single twitchy-dancing plane, a single rotating sphere, and a single rotating torus. I can't make even a scribble yet so that's not a crit, it's just what I found🙂. I was amazed, to be perfectly honest. Solid 3Dimensional shapes "ooh, ahh, *drool*". I looked at UnConed's work with triangles(not my taste, too square, well, cubed), and learned where to place a color map.

So I took the torus preset(has a bit of a naughty name, part of it's a word I reserve for extreme anger at extreme situations, so I'll just call it jaaka's torus preset). Made a color map, added it and color shift to the appropriate places in the tree. Then had something that looked nice, but still a single torus. I don't know what posessed me but I took Tuggummi's movement from Club Seizure(color enhanced) and pasted it into my little project. Looked pretty decent to my innexperienced eyes. So I added a Robo Blitter, and Colorfade.

It's title: I can't code. So obvious, and so true. At any rate you have to have TomyLobo's Triangle Rasterizer APE should you find yourself curious enough to take a gander, it's located here: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/7891629/

Obviously, suggestions, such as how to make it better, and even optimize it are welcome. For example, I'm pretty sure I could have improved on it by putting the colors specifically in the triangles rasterizer(will be called TR later?), and yeah, would be better still if I could code, but I think for an early try, and without knowing a lick of code(beyond having some of the stuff from Pak-9's manual memorized) it's not half-bad.

Okay, sorry, it didn't upload my attatchment. Good thing I botherred to upload it to my freebie website http://www.angelfire.com/art2/nolita/I_can_t_code.html Yeah it's angelfire, I'm clearly a spaz.
