Glowing Background (AS3)

looks great.

that’s really nice.

Bookmarked. Nice effect JoeMC

I didn’t even wait to buy it, I’ll let you know how it works out! =)

If anyone is willing to rate this (who has bought it and likes it), please do… The 2 low ratings people have given this file are killing my rating.

I haven’t rated it yet because I haven’t got it to work, the background imports but does not blur, I’m sure I just missed something but since I haven’t figured it out I haven’t rated it yet…when I do I will be sure to rate it! =)

feliks – Make sure the caurina folder is in your root directory. It contains the classes which create the blur/glow effect. If you still have issues, please email me at "joe@metaphorcreations.com":mailto:joe@metaphorcreations.com">joe@metaphorcreations.com

Sorry about those posts… I wish there was a way to delete them!.. anyways, please email me if you need help, otherwise everything should be noted in the help file.

No problem, got it to work just fine, the folder was there but I think the problem was importing it to another flash file… Works great now though! 5 stars! =)

Hi there,

I’m getting this error when loading it as a background into another movie:

_256 levels of recursion were exceeded in one action list. This is probably an infinite loop. Further execution of actions has been disabled in this movie._

Any ideas on how to fix it? I can’t seem to figure it out here.

In case anyone else has the same issues. I replaced the “_ColorMatrix_matrix_gg ,rr & bb” bits with “_color_greenMultiplier, red & blue” which produces a fairly similar effect but without the infinate loop issues.

@totzo – I haven’t ran into that issue, but thanks for pointing it out. I will work on some more tests and see if I get that error.

Thanks for the extra posting with the help as well!

forgot to say, you have to change 2 lines near the top to this:

import caurina.transitions.properties.ColorShortcuts; ColorShortcuts.init();

I’m using it in a gaia framework site, I guess it isn’t playing well with the transitionIn/transitionOut methods?

nice!

Looks great.Just purchased. When Importing an image to use….do you prefer or what do you prefer to start with in size?
