Well you knew I had 2 be working on it

It has a ton of options just like the infinite mirror does so you can fine toon it for instance it allows you to tile the source as well as tweak the curve and the start location of the deform

Hey this ones looking good voldemort it also can give a flower like effect

First you use a frame component with a circular curve
then the only difference from my infinite mirror is instead of refraction I use an offset

step one I use a gain curve on the 2 profile gradients for the offset

then for the offset percentage I use an identical frame component and circular curve except I invert the curve

next I add slide components to the curve for the start and minimum --this helps tweakt the effect

then on the frame component it self I plut a slider on the margin width --this determines where it starts

on all the frame component i put a check control on the curve so i can check mark it as either square or circle ---and your done just pipe the offsets one into a nother like I do on the infinite mirror use a switch for how many generations and your done

Like I said Ill submitt it now for you guys

Please do As I have allways said I would rather see a better version then a pat on my back

If you can do a different or better way I would love to see it --The community can only benifit from additional methods

I just read your post about 3min ago and checked it out
I like your changes I pluged back in the invert so you can control the direction of the swirl and a few other things and here it is see what you think

infinite swirl rev 1b.ffxml

hehe, volde, seems neither of us will post it then i just wouldnt feel right posting something that is 99.9% your work.

but, what i would feel comfortable with, is posting a pic using the filter. this is steve's cup pic caught in the vortex

I would Like to clarify one thing again for everyone
Im not just saying this to sound noble or something like that
I REALLY DONT CARE WHO GETS THE CREDIT
I mean it
So long as I end up with something useable and the community benifits thats all I care about
Ive done severl hundred tutorials on stuff throughout the net under different usernames and submitted tons of scripts and other stuff as well
some assset packs for games included
Every time I say the same thing
I dont care who uses them or how they are used so long as people get some benifit from it
I dont even care about credit either

Ive had quite a few of my ideas or techniques ripped off over the years --not here though wich says alot about this community

but ive never cared

and one last thing I know at some point I probably forgot to credit someones snippet or core filter that I based some work upon

agian If I did

It was not intentionall and I appologize
Pleas let me know and I wall fix it imediatly
