Made this to use as a screensaver, was going to add more detail but it already takes three hours to render. But before I go adding aftereffects, It seems as though the Bliss screensaver that comes with windows was deleted. Anybody have a copy?

SInce I've yet to figure out how to make a screensaver out of a loopable avi without the bliss screensaver (I usually just replace the default one) I made this.

Was looking for something else, & came across this:

3D Screen Creator (http://www.devsoft.ch/products/3DScreenCreator/index.php)

Thought it might be an alternative solution for you.

Hi Brian,


Looking good. You've created a very tranquil scene. The first thing that sprung to mind was a free program that I stumbled across recently called GT ripple.


GT ripple link (http://www.gtdesktop.com/?page=gtdesktop_website/gtripple)


It adds ripples to water sections on wallpaper images and is very effective if used correctly. I use it myself on one of my monitors to ripple the water in a Norwegian Fiord!!! don't think it can be use with screen savers but it impresses everyone who sees it on my set up. Thought it might be cool if you had a static image of your windmills with rippling water and when the screen saver cuts in the sails on the mill would start turning!!!!.


Hope you find it useful
