Cloud and Landscape Generator
Building my base of reusable code, I spent the last few days implementing, tweaking and making examples of a fractal based clound/landscape generator.
Since the Flash 10 penetration rate will need some time to get close to 100%, it's implemented for Flash 9. Everything is generated in code, so it would be perfect for projects with size limitations or when requiring to generate content dynamically.
Base algorithm:
Same result as Photoshop Filter menu -> Render -> Cloud .. |
Landscape generator: 
Heightmap and texture accessable independently (as 2D arrays or as Actionscript Sprite or Bitmap) .. |
Dark (k)night psychedelic: night-psychedelic-thumbnail.png)
An example of use. Infintely looping 3 layer parallax scrolling using Flash blend modes, distance based bluring, and horizontal flip for faster init time and psychedelic effect. |
Dark (k)night clean:night-cleanthumbnail.png)
Similar but no filters or blend modes. |

That's a very cool effect, anychance to get the source code ?
