Fire Background

You are one step away from completing the effect. This time the changes will be on the second frame. So far we have a pretty cool fade in, which looks like the background for a fire lighting up, so we only need to create a continuous effect for the burning fire.

This is the easiest part so far. On the second frame, click the Movie Clip and add:

onClipEvent( enterFrame ) {
	this._alpha=70+random(30);	
}

 
 
 

So instead of a static view, after the fade we must create the impression of a partially lighted background. We did this by changing the "_alpha" parameter to a value between 70 and 100, each time the Movie enters a new frame.
