Release 4.2.11. New effect Plasma
« on: September 20, 2015, 10:46:01 PM »
Release 4.2.11
Some bug fixes.
For the first time this year, I have created a new effect. In 2015 Dan and Gil have been doing all the work so far. I have a few more new effects I want to add in the next few weeks. New effect is called Plasma. I added the effect into Butterfly as Effect Style 6,7,8 and 9. Lots of sliders can be added to this effect but i thought i would get it out since some may want the Black/White effect for Halloween.
I tested a 96x80 horizontal matrix. Save took 8.5 seconds so it is pretty efficient.

Follow these links you will see animated versions. I changed speed slider to three values from slow to fast. Only style and speed work on Style effects 6,7,8,9 (Plasma Effects)
