static and interference in Intro's

[Painless 10]

Hi

How do i go about enabling static or interference effect for intros, like the (OA & PMC ) show case movies , ive messed about with ppeffects and filmgrain modules but to no avail.

cheers

Filmgrain should get you what you want. For a more extreme 'interference' effect, ChromAbberation works well too. Try these for example:

"filmGrain" ppEffectEnable true;

"FilmGrain" ppEffectAdjust[0.28, 1.64, 2.22, 0.35, 0, true];

"filmGrain" ppEffectCommit 1;

"ChromAberration" ppEffectEnable true;

"ChromAberration" ppEffectAdjust[0.15, 0, true];

@ 2nd Ranger

Try this

"filmGrain" ppEffectEnable true;
"FilmGrain" ppEffectAdjust[0.28, 1.64, 2.22, 0.35, 0, true];
"filmGrain" ppEffectCommit 1;
"ChromAberration" ppEffectEnable true;

[] spawn 
{
   while {true} do 
    {
    "ChromAberration" ppEffectAdjust[0.0, 0.2), true]; 
    "ChromAberration" ppEffectCommit 0.05;

 sleep 0.1;

     "ChromAberration" ppEffectAdjust[0.0, 0.0, true]; 
      "ChromAberration" ppEffectCommit 0.01;

   sleep (random 3);
   };
};

Experiment with the second ChromAb value to make screen flicker up and down, the first value for left-right. You could even use a random value for the flicker like

"ChromAberration" ppEffectAdjust[0.0, (random 0.4), true];

And maybe a random sleep after the first flicker, so it might flick instantly or take a second or two.
