So many of the basic effects can be done with the user defined class. This allows you to write your own effects. I will be teaching (and documenting this) for the academy this weekend. I am going to gather a bunch of them together and make a new basic class. Maybe it will have 20-30 effects in the next month.
Here is a user defined effect (meaning you can type in the php code to generate basic effects). See the bolded line below that creates this flashing color cycle
array_to_save
username f
user_target AA
effect_class user_defined
effect_name USER1
window_degrees 180
start_color #FFFFFF
end_color #FFFFFF
frame_delay 200
sparkles 0
param1 1
param2 2
seq_duration 2
php_program if($frame%4==0) $rgb=hexdec(\"#FFFFFF\"); if($frame%4==1) $rgb=hexdec(\"#FF0000\"); if($frame%4==2) $rgb=hexdec(\"#00FF00\"); if($frame%4==3) $rgb=hexdec(\"#0000FF\");

Here is another example:

username f
user_target AA
effect_class user_defined
effect_name USER7
window_degrees 180
start_color #FFFFFF
end_color #FFFFFF
frame_delay 200
sparkles 0
param1 3
param2 2
seq_duration 2
php_program # function user_defined($frame,$s,$p,$maxFrame,$maxStrand,$maxPixel,$param1,$param2,$start_color,$end_color) $rgb=hexdec(\"#FFFFFF\"); $H=$S=$V=1; $slice=$param1; // use first parameter passed in from user $slice_size=$maxPixel/$slice; $H0 = (($frame% $slice) * $slice_size); $H=($p+$H0)/$maxPixel; if($H>1) $H = $H-intval($H); $rgb=HSV_TO_RGB ($H, $S, $V); return $rgb;

One more. Again, the bolded line is the entire program to create this effect. I will have a document describing how to create your own. The doc will describe the functions available to use.

I will probably build 50-100 of these by end of summer and just create them all into the basic effect library.
first, i will get the nutcracker to sync its effects to the music.
