Hi, I hope someone can help me with this.
I have an object moving along a motion guide and would like it to blur to create an element of speed.
I can see some scripts out there that blur the object using the mouse but i dont have the knowledge to convert it to the path.
can anyone help?
very much appreciated!
Thanks
Stu

v8 and up have a blur effect, no? Would that not work?

v8+ have blur effects.
you could also just fake it and save out a blurred version in ps a .png and overlay it in flash tweeking the alpha.

wot flash version do u have?
if u have 8 +, just set the blur filter to whatever u like in the properties panel....

Are you using keyframe animation or the tween class? As2 or As3?
- Stugoo0
tween animation.
v8,
AS 2Ive already tried the blur on the mc, but its not quite as perfect as i would like.
im ooking for more like 'traces' so to speak...

You're going to get a much smoother final product if you animate with code. is the object traveling on a path? you can use code to blur based upon the objects properties, say x and y?

That sounds like what Im after.
the Blur using the parameters makes it look a bit better but again not really what Im after.Although i really dont know where to begin as my action script knowledge is pretty poor tbh. :(

are you looking for more of a trail rahter than a blur?
ie. the movieclip is duplicated several time with differeing alphas?

Do you think that would be a better solution lvl_13?
Do you think it will emulate the motion blur?

not sure. i guess it was just another suggestion...but really i don't know what exactly you are looking for. you could give it a try i guess and see which you like better :)
