Subject: conveyor illusions

 

someone was asking about conveyors with different
animations (think it was gawp)

well if it's any help,
the following bitmap (found in henry's
hoard):

00100101
00010110
01000000

does a darn good job of fooling the eye into thinking
that both moving parts are going the same way. it also
has a nice 'double speed' effect.

one i came
up with in WW is
this:

00001111
00000000
01100110

which will also fool the eye (or rather the mind :)
into thinking both parts are moving at the same
speed.

hope that helps : >>>

also - where do
the items in henry's hoard get their colour values
from? some are yellow, some are cyan... ? and... what
time signature is the music supposed to be in????
