v2.30 Visual Anim
REQUIREMENTS:
This script needs RexxMath.library (util/rexx/RexxMathLib.lha)
This script will take you to the magic world of animation. It's very easy to
use. Couple of requesters will pop up asking you some information, but you
don't need that same information every time. Values used last are stored in
config-files, which are stored in IE:Prefs/ -directory.
For fast test use 8 frames. For final one use frames you think is suitable.
Remember: more frames, more size. This script will not save and
animation-phile, but frames of it. Default dir is 'Ram:'. Files saved are
Ripple.001 ... Twirl.0??. They can be easily imported to Personal Paint 7,
using it's Arexx-script called 'Frames to Animation'.
Remember to delete old frames, when making new anim. If you just made a 18
frames anim and are now doing 8 frames one, which will now have 10 extra
frames.
When using Best-mode (colour avarage), IE's version v3.41 show it's buggy
side. Frames will have some extra noise, somewhere where it shouldn't be.
It's quite easy to remove 'em using Personal Paint's Stencil-tool. Fast-mode
won't produce that noise, but it won't either produce anti-aliased edges,
like Best-mode does.
Remember that when you are asked if you want to use black or white
background, the actual color is taken from pictures original palette. So, if
there's no pure black/white available, then next closest one will be
choosen.
