500 MCs is gonna be a hit already on VM1, 500 blurred MCs? Best of luck. AS3/FP9 you'll have better performance but 500 blurs seems like lot. I would suggest you write some an algorithm that creates groups of clips with the same blur into container clips and blur the container clips rather than

Thanks for the reply Steven - I understand I'm pushing things here. Would you think cacheasbitmap would help in this situation? If you apply a blur to a MC, then cacheasbitmap, does that convert the MC with blur to a cached bitmap? If so, my guess is it would probably help the cpu, but take a

OK, after researching more I found out that applying a filter to a MC will actually turn bitmapcaching on for that MC anyway. I did stumble on this which is interesting: http://www.sebleedelisle.com/?p=35 Anyone know the theory of how this works? On 3/20/07, Mick G [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

cacheAsBitmap will rasterise all vectors every time you scale or rotate a clip. the superCacheAsBitmap draws an MC to a bitmap object which is then scaled and rotated... thus not needing to re-cache to bitmap every frame. Arse www.snepo.com www.arseiam.com On 21/03/2007, at 10:28 AM,
