There is now a display of the cropping box size and a new vector variable, angle_shift, which changes the angle of the particles movement vector each frame.

Just a few more features:

This thing seems pretty awesome, and bad ass as well. I hope I get the chance to use it sometime soon. Also that particular animation with the... Butterflies? Reminds me a lot of the Krill in Gears of War... Oh, the horrors of meeting them for the first time!

Hey Flick, is there a way to add a background image first and then add the effects on after? I've been looking around for a bit and I can't find this. And would it be possible to declare the starting_PixelX and ending_PixelX(same with the Ys) for the particle animation? So this way we could modify it exactly how we want.

There is no way to add a background image at the moment, although that shouldn't be too difficult to add. I'm not sure how I'd set up placement and such though. As far as setting a bounding box for the particles before generating them, that's tough. The variables you can set make a huge difference on the size of the particle group generated. I could pretty easily set it up so you can generate the particles and then scale the finished icon to whatever size you want though. That's what I'm doing with the 2/1, 1/2, and 1/4 size options when saving. I can allow user defined width and height values which should pretty much accomplish what you want. I'll see what I can do tomorrow afternoon. Thanks for checking it out. | |

I'm not exactly sure how the width and height values work, it looked like they were controlling the crop size. Or are they manipulating the particles in any way?
