Thanks but I should have mentioned its a zoom so I cant really move other stuff unless I use a VCAM which I dont think would help with lag at all

Hmmm ... The other thing is - save the blur thingy as a .png (only the blur thingy) and then use it in flash as an image [just remember to allow smoothing and rise the quality of the picture in the library]

Thanks for the catch, it's added now.

I will be reviewing the thread and tagged movies to make sure they've all been caught before sending them to the judges.

I've run into a problem with lagging in one scene due to a blur filter in a moviecip thats being motion tweened. can anyone suggest a way I can eliminate the lag but keep the filter? It lokks rubbish without it.

You seem to have everything resolved, but for future reference you can also use Modify > Shape > Soften fill edges

I assume that wouldn't be a problem, as seeing as I did that every single round last year :3

That would be pretty awesome, and might get more entrants if people decide not to drop out because they are hesitant about submitting something unfinished to the portal.

That's kind of my dilemma right now.


Boop boop beep boop.

Well I'm gonna have to drop out, unfortunately I was too ambitious with it and shot myself in the foot.
I've pretty much done 3 all nighters in a row and now feel so dizzy and sick, I can't physically work on it anymore and I still have all the backgrounds left to paint..so yeah
I'll finish it up some other time.
Best of luck to everyone else!

Dump it, dawg! You can still make it in with an unfinished piece, lest you forget.
