turn off slideshows
What you want to do is press h to get help, and it will show you the key for toggling off/on all slideshows, in addition to showing you many other commands that are helpful, such as the ones listed by markofkane, which will allow you to step forward or backward through all the color palletes, wavesh...

View my thread on using original colors in sprites
For a slideshow-type experience, you could use the method I described in this post to retain the image's natural colors while in G-Force. Sounds like that might be close to what you're looking for. Or, if you have access to video-editing software, you could also simply use Darkroom to record an mpg ...

How to keep your original image's colors in G-Force sprites
Hello everyone, We all love the sprite capabilities of G-Force. But what if you want your image to show up in it's original colors? Flesh tones as flesh tones. Teeth gleaming white and not gleaming... Acid Gap Green or Kauai rainbow colors and whatnot. This came up when my brother's girlfriend wante...

More sprite controls
Unfortunately there is no way to do "Photoshop-style" blending with sprites. They will always appear colored by whatever ColorMap is loaded. As for ordering of sprites and the time inbetween them, in addition to changing the settings, you can write a "config file" script that will load specific spri...

Check your paths first
AFAIK, there is no minumum time required. What you may want to do is double-check that you are using the correct path to your script, that you have saved the document, and also that it is in plain-text (not rich-text) formatting. Mac's default Text Editor tries to change plain text files to rich tex...

This is possible, in a way
There's no plug-in that I know of that can do this. However, I am currently working on something which will do something similar. Basically, I'm creating my own 3D modeled and rendered MPG's of "organisms" (in this case, caterpillars and butterflies), in black-and-white, and then writing a G-force s...

Make "s" variable accessible to sprite configs.
This is more of a programming suggestion than a workflow suggestion, but I think if the "s" variable (and others) were available within sprite configs, it would be very interesting. For example, tying "s" to "Pen" and "EPen" would cause a sprite to flash in time to music, etc. Great work on G-Force ...

Thanks for your input Jay, I fiddled with the config for about an hour before I decided that it wasn't going to be able to do what I wanted it to do... Seems like it wouldn't be too hard a thing to do, seeing as WaveShapes can access "s" already, and they are somewhat similar to sprites... I would i...

Question: Is "s" available in sprite configs?
Hi everyone, What I am trying to do is create a sprite which flashes with the intensity of the beat of the song, so basically in my sprite's config file I would like to use something like: abs( mag(s) ) as the "Pen" variable... and EPen I have set at around 0.5 However, when I try this, it doesn't s...

Polar coordinates: Can I change the location of the pole?
Hello everyone, I am beginning to write my own G-Force scripts, and I am curious to know if there is a way to change or translate the position of the pole when using polar coordinates in FlowField configs. All I want to do is modify an existing config such that the pole is in in a corner of the scre...
