sorry, sorry, no that's okay, really, please i'm sorry.

Chat room???

Hey wait a minute AN explosion IS its own in and of itself Light source. For example, in a true TOTAL darkness room, and explosion will create its own light and then blow out, whereas in space wherever the light source is (sun) the explosion will use that light as well, BUT a true explosion IS ITS OWN light. I'm talking in circles, oh well, I thought i understood my own point, maybe not..... What say ye?

ok, radial light correct?

Do you have a better suggestion? Cause I see no other alternative UNLESS someone writes to tut, AND it looks to me after doing my searches that doing it in post w/AE or PP would be SO much easier, what say ye?

After A LOT, I mean A LOT, of searching, I've come to the realization: Do the Explosions in post w/premiere of After Effcts, I think this would be easier!!!! Oh Well!!! thanks guys!!!

ok thanks anyway.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It worked!!!!!!!!!! Now, Aldaron, how about helping me out with the explosion, then I'll have it!!!! Just wondering!!!

Aldaron: May God Blees You w/all that ye shall ask for. OK people here is proof, ASK and ye shall receive. T H A N K S!!! Going to try it right NOW!!!!!!

Been there, tried that. I just cannot get it to work, I'm sorry, just can't BUT thank you for your help, AL.

Edit: When you get time for the screenshots that will be GREAT, THANKS, Lordstormdragon!!

I am trying to learn, lordstormdragon, like I said I've tried the Brycetech tutorial 3 times and I cannot get it to work, and I understand why you would think this, but anyway, thanks for your offering to help I app. it, JimBobCarl

Well Ok here goes nothing OR everything: Can someone write a comprehensive tutorial on the afore mentioned affects and post them here OR send them to my email??? Remember I'm still new to bryce so be as specific as you can, ok??? joeyhoover@yahoo.com AND T H A N K S !!!!!!!!

Please do Please do,

OK and thanks for the tips thus far: Well I have made a thread on this before, BUT not exactly for specifically ASKING for a tutorial: ANYHOO, I need a tutorial (w/screen shots) for animating an explosion of a spaceship, and how to make it disappear after the "height" of the explosion, also how to do lazers, AND how to do the cloaking/decloaking effect from the Star Trek series. See I'm just afraid to post another thread on this... I have tried the one at (I think) BryceTech, and itwas with NOT enough information for me to follow, it looked horrible so I have done my homework to try and rectify this problem, seriously. I CAN ANIMATE the movements of ships and all, NOT the above effects, that's what I'm having trouble with, the three attempts I tried, I was close to kicking the (insert expletive here) out of my comp. Can you say FRUSTRATION. I looked through the manual, no luck there. So, what's a guy to do???? NO IDEA, I REALLY AM EAGER to learn, I AM a visual learner, w/software, and am quite good w/practice, I just need some help here. Another Q: SO, should I have asked this in this FORUM, OR in the ANIMATION forum? Just wondering???? AGAIN< THANK YOU EVERYONE, for your help, writes down reminder to include renderosity.com in the moviecredits What say ye?
