June 12, 20232 yr I've tried messing around with the AFE several times, but not knowing the vocabulary it uses made it next to impossible. This is a HUGE boon to me! Thank you very much! Maybe now I can start making my own custom pyrotechnics instead of solely relying on the generosity of others sharing their work. :^) The idea is to keep an open mind... just not so open that your brains fall out. - Harry Anderson

June 13, 20232 yr Wow, this looks great, Anon! It’s broken down very well and feels super accessible.
June 13, 20232 yr Very good tutorial and very well written, the addition of the AFE basics is also a very nice touch. This will surely open a lot of people's doors into the AFE! Thanks for sharing! there's this illusion of the reality, but it's not really really real, like it's beside and inside and inside and beside, but never on top.. nevermind, just kidding but not really

June 14, 20232 yr Man, I just got the hang of the shape, now all I need to do is to do more stuff to it like make its stars realistic and stuff. "If you are bored, would you like a steak? Medium or medium-rare?"
June 14, 20232 yr Man, i'm hooked. "If you are bored, would you like a steak? Medium or medium-rare?"

That's already a good start, dude. Remember you can experiment with the amount of stars as well as the X rotation speed to make different combinations. You can even do halves and multi layered shells as well! "What I'm about to do, it doesn't make any sense, it's not logical, it is a gut feeling!" -James T. Kirk
June 15, 20232 yr I just did some new effects more like ILYXR's this time. "If you are bored, would you like a steak? Medium or medium-rare?"
June 15, 20232 yr All effects are made from scratch. "If you are bored, would you like a steak? Medium or medium-rare?"
June 15, 20232 yr An improvement for sure, I still recommend lowering the brightness of your pro color - you're still getting that white blob with multiple effects bundled up together. there's this illusion of the reality, but it's not really really real, like it's beside and inside and inside and beside, but never on top.. nevermind, just kidding but not really
