Java 2D
#1

I would like to learn how to do lighting and particles effects in 2d like this:
http://www.jhlabs.com/java/particles.html

Any links would be very helpful. But dont reply with CFXWeb because they have sourse code but no tutorials :slight_smile:

That is not true, for example here is a tutorial about making light rays :wink:
http://www.cfxweb.net/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=1272

Thanx, anyone know of any more links?

Hey, if I knew people were going to read my tutorial I would have done a better job :). It is really a first draft.

If you are interested in learning how those sorts of effects are done there are two things to do. Download the source code for the applets - all of CFXweb’s contest entries are required to provide source code. And, ask questions in the Java forum at CFXweb where the guys that do this stuff hang out. I’m sure you will get lots of help.
