Did a particle study for videogaiden for preloaders and stuff

Disclaimer: All of these are based on processing script done by other people, i’ve then ported to AS2 and tweaked

Did a study of different screen effects for a game for the video gaiden site, was fun

this was based on the old pc classic acidwarp, it’s a complete c to AS2 port

basically it’s a static bitmap which has it’s RGB pallette mapped to a new pallette, then that new pallette, gets messed around with, to a majorly hypnotic effect, the other examples are just some of my earlier experiments with using a bitmaps layer to modify the apperance of the swf below it. All examples enable by one line of code with is pretty cool

//acid warp

bbc.io.screen_filter_manager.acidwarp_filter ()

//pixellate effect

bbc.io.screen_filter_manager.apply_pixelated_filter (0.33)

//inversion effect

bbc.io.screen_filter_manager.apply_inverted_filter()

Developing apps video on akamai servers, having connection issues ?

run this app to test internet connection, this will tell you if your problems are down to:

a) old/badly setup routers

b) port blocking

c) very old squid proxy servers

d) or all of the above

had to use this app to prove to tech support, the net connection was blocking flash streams,

Nice little client side profanity checker, has escape words such as essex and such, starring so it can do f**k, profanity counting, all nicely xml configured

Notes: called merdi because i mispelt merde and couldn’t be bothered renaming the class

Had a post on the flash list about needing to make “colouring in” childerns jpegs, accessable for folks who only use switch controls, sounded like a good challange and made this

tab through the different segments

Was experimenting with flash 7 and flash 8 fill methods and built this, i think it’s cool, if u have a old flash 7 player, try it and see what happens

Been using these base classes since my dare days, a nice generic particle engine for use with any game really.

Early experiments creating classes for a subsumption based AI bot failed due to flash 7′s terrible performance, ended up having to build the whole thing procedurally just for speed,

The wee fishes have escape/flocking/tired-ness and chase behaviours, in the game notiance the biezer curve on the games fishing line

Based them on some fishes we had in the office, was pretty happy with the final result

How to do it in a simple way without using components, just a simple class that hijacks the normal button and movieclip classes,

it uses standard text fields and bynamic buttons, has xml input and voice to speak capabilities

was the back bone of the jacobites site
