This resource adds functionality for standard lens flares and screen whiteout. when the sun gets closer to the center of the screen, a whiteout effect is also applied. Lensflares or whiteout do not display when the camera is underwater.

fxGenericObject is a sample class that shows how to create a complete, networkable, rendered object. This is similar to Melv May's fxRenderObject, but since it's a complete rewrite, I didn't presume to use the same name.

The GuiStatusCtrl is a control that will monitor a field on (or call a method on) any named object. This makes it easy to make status screens, etc. Also included is a GuiStatusController - a container that controls GuiStatusCtrls. The field name and value can use TorqueML to customize the font, size, shadows, alignment, etc. New: Now with support for TGE 1.5.2!

The Bitmap Channel Embedder is an application that allows you take a bitmap, and embed a channel of that bitmap into another bitmap. This is useful for embedding specular data into the alpha channel of the diffuse map for use in TGEA

A GuiBitmapBorderBoundsCtrl is a container control that draws itself from a single bitmap. It differs from a GuiBitmapBorder in that it does not need a special BitmapArray, so it is easy to create and modify. In addition, it can draw the sides and interior tiled in addition to stretching, giving it a neater appearance. The corners are not stretched or tiled, so resizing the control still results in correct appearance.

This is a function you can add to GFXDrawUtil that will tile a rectangle from a source rectangle in a texture. This is used by several of my other GUI Controls.

In TGEA, the function to show the damage flash does not work. This is due to two different issues. This resource posts a fix for both issues.

This adds a function called getTopControl to GuiCanvas that returns the dialog that is on the top of the control stack. This allows you to tailor code in script functions depending on what dialog (if any) is currently being displayed.

This adds a property that allows a control to ignore mouse input. This is helpful when you want to embed other controls inside of controls that must process the mouse input, such as GuiButtonCtrl.
