- AnfyFire 2.2 - Copyright (C) by Fabio Ciucci 1996/98
-
-
- This applet can generate and animate a realtime "fire" effect, well know
- in the "demo scene" contest.
- Remember that are needed both fire.class , Lware.class and anfy.class.
- You must upload these 3 .class files and insert the <applet> tag on your
- html document to add this applet to your page.
- This applet is fully parametrized, so you can generate all kinds of fire
- you want. Here an example of what you have to write in the html (the
- things anfter the ; are comments with min-max values acceptet):

-
- Here detailed instructions about how to change parameters:
-
-
- The credits parameter can't be changed otherwise the applet will not work.
-
- To activate the reg parameters read the shareware registration notes.
- In the "regcode" parameter you have to place the registration code you
- purchase from the author. If it is correct and the applet is run from the
- registered domain name, you can use "reglink" parameter, where you can specify
- an URL where bring user when the applet is clicked.
- If you set to "YES" regnewframe, you can specify a frame where load the
- reglink:
-
- "_blank" : To load the link in a new blank unnamed browser window.
- "_self" : To load the link into the same window the applet occupies.
- "_parent" : To load the link into the immediate FRAMESET parent.
- "_top" : To load the link into the top body of the window.
-
- Otherwise the frame name, for example "myframe1".
-
- fwidth and fheight determine the "internal" width and heigth of the fire,
- but will be "real" size only is resx=1 and resy=1. In fact, resx and resy
- are a sort of "scalers" or "zoomers", or "stretchers", if you prefer: if
- fwidth and fheigth are set to 8 and 10, and resx=2 & resy=2, you will have
- a "real" size of 16 x 20. The real size is fwidth*resx X pheight*resy.
- This effect is better when resy is greater than resx.
-
- About the fire cutting values fcut and fsub, consider fcut must be higher
- than fsub, and some values will generate wrong effects. Range is 1-127.
-
- The deflight (0-127) determine the minimal light at the base of fire... so
- placing it to 0 the fire will have more black holes than placing it as 127.
-
- If you like the fire as a rectangular block, set fmode=1, otherwise set it
- to 2, to have a convex (conical) flame.
-
- You can decide the smoothing of random generator with rndrep (1-9)... with
- lower values you will have less smoothed flames, and vice-versa.
-
- About the palette, there are 3 values for Red Green Blue (RGB), that can
- go from 0 (none) to 8 (full), and are named paletteR, paletteG, paletteB.
- So you can generate red (fire), green (magic), blue (gas) flames... there
- are 700 combinations possible, just select your preferred.
