Hi all - PPT 2002 XP - WinME
I have a huge storm cloud effect in a background, and I want to create
spates of simulated lightning effects. Some strike lightning, and some
similar to linear inner-cloud flash lightning.
I've been sampling with some shapes, and effects and timings, but, so far,
nothing close. I was just wondering it there is a specific type of animation
effect is should be using to do this. One of the things I've tried is using
a shape, with a weird gradient fill, set to appear, flash, then disappear,
and on and off, but, so far, nothing is working too well.
I will have other activities going on at the same time, which I don't think
will bother, but don't know. Should I think of this as another level type of
activity? If so, to what extent?
The animations thus far are coming along quite well, but, there is this one
thing I want to add to give more realism and excitement to the show. I
mean....besides Hook and Peter Pan dueling it out in the Crows Nest. ;-))
I'd really appreciate any suggestions. This effect would really put some
snap into the project.
Best regards,
Jan
