>> Can I get the speed of a cycle to change. For instance, if I wanted one stream to be faster than another in the same .flc? I guess I could try and see if a 32 color cluster cycled in 16 frames. I'm working on a project that is the same valve with 6 different sets of fluid flow through it. I'm making .flc's and then compositing them with the valve in VP. Working fine except that in the 6 pieces they wanted three different speeds of flow. Anyway, thanks again. You saved me. << yes, you can get the speed of cycles to change, and the method you outlined is how you do it. a 30-frame flic offers some very diverse cluster speeds: 30 – one complete cycle for slowest flow 10 – 3 cycles for slow flow 6 – 5 cycles for medium flow 5 – 6 cycles for fast flow 3 – 10 cycles for very fast flow for smoother mix of speeds, look for something more binary like 32-frame with clusters of 32, 16, 8, 4 etc. hope this helps. -dave
