Hello,
I’m looking to imitate the effect sometimes found here: (doesn’t look like they have it at the moment) http://www.worldofwarcraft.com
The flash at the top of the page where their images shine.
Now I have the shine effect working to an extent. I want to be able to mask the shine effect so it only happens on a particular image. Currently it just shines the whole document.
This is gonna be kinda confusing so :
image a = .swf with the shine effect
original = original image to be shined
image b = background
image c = mask trying to display only image a with the shine rather than the whole document
I had to make 2 flash documents for this because, to my knowledge, you can’t mask a mask in flash. so i just imported the flash swf into the 2nd document (image a).
I’ve tried to make a image c black everywhere but image a’s area (likewise with all white image).
I’ve tried using original to mask the swf but that also failed.
With video work, I think I recall that white is what you want to show…havn’t worked with it in a while so I could be wrong.
If anyone know’s / can help with what I’m trying to do, I would appreciate the help if possible.
Thanks in advance.
