Title: [MAGNIFICATION]Barzoom
Post by: TinDragon on July 20, 2009

I havent had much time to code so I pulled this from some very old code I had made ages ago, sorry for the large exe size but its compiled using b3d as I havent converted it to bmax. Would need a lib like zawrans framework due to how I am copyrect alot from an image buffer anyway  ;)

That looks pretty effective as a glass zoom effect Tindragon, thanks very much indeed for posting it :)

Its free to use, and it could be cool to see if it would translate easily. :)

Nice effect, as Shockwave says, almost like a glass bar.

Thanks for the repiles, I was aiming for a glass like effect and this does work fairly well. I had planned on having a more animated background rather than a static picture once i had converted it to bmax but I dont think I will have the time to do that atm so I went with what I had.

I'll settle for this to be honest with you Tindragon :) It's so good to see something from you after all this time.

Definitely agree with what Shocky said about seeing something from you in so long (and same goes to Zawran too!!) :)

Pretty well done for what you were going for! Nice and fast, too.

Nice and smooth on my old laptop. There aren't enough glass effects in mainstream programming.
