- LavaLamp
- ------------
-
-
- This set of objects took me about 1 hour to fully create. It was entirely
- created in Forms Editor (Yep, even the pink lava and stuff).
-
- I decided to keep everything seperated, because I know how much of a bitch
- it would be if I was to download such an object, and want to modify a part
- of it.. Then have to sit around and disassemble it for no reason.
-
- As they are, all the seperate objects will load >into place<, meaning, if
- you were to load them up, they would fit in their respective places..
- LavaCap goes ontop of LavaGlass, LavaGlass sits in LavaBase, LavaPlasma
- floats inside LavaGlass.
-
-
- A raytrace is included with this archive, showing what it looks like. Its
- not a very showy picture, but, shows you basically what it looks like.

- Spiffy Technical Notes:
- -----------------------
-
- You MAY want to tweek with the Filter gauge on the Attributes menu, while
- working with the LavaGlass object. You have to understand that on a REAL
- lavalamp, the glass itself is clear.. Then there is hot white wax that
- floats around inside, surrounded by pink water.. I originally made the
- LavaPlasma white, and the glass pink, but it didnt turn out too well.
- Couldnt get the same effect.
-
- By tweeking, I suggest you change the Filter gauge from 255,255,255
- (Completely transparent) to a pinkish-white shade, to give the glass a
- slight pink tint. Im in no position to screw with the Attributes values,
- because I only have an stock 68000 machine, no accellerator or anything..
- I cant go back 30 times and find the right combination of settings, so,
- ill leave that up to you if youre gonna get cute with it. :)
-
- Other than that, the obkect as it is, is fine.. Makes a fine room
- decoration.
