<0> Hey guys - all I want to do is have background ambience play when my page is loaded, any easy way to do this?
<1> Hi there, is a quistion in order?
<1> question that is
<1> Very well then, I have a easy one, and I guess it's related with the hierarchy of objects...
<1> I have a movie of two frames and a button.
<1> The button contains the following code:
<1> on (release) {
<1> movie.gotoAndStop(2)
<1> }
<1> (without the square)
<1> but the damn movie will not change.
<1> Suggestions?
<1> I'm willing to send the project over to someone, if there's someone awake.
<2> use _root instead of movie.
<2> _root.gotoAndStop(2);
<1> Don't I need to specify what movieclip to change frame in?
<2> You have a movieClip inside the main timeline..?
<1> Would you mind takeing a look at it?
<2> and this mc is the one that you want to play...
<1> Yes, that's correct
<2> No need to send it, we'll figure it out anyhow..
<2> og, and you have specified movie as instancename on that mc..?
<1> I have a movieclip "movie" and a button "button"... with button I want to change "movie" to frame 2
<1> let me have a look
<2> Ok, you can then use _root.movie.gotoAnd... or use relative targeting.
<1> well whatever relative targeting is, it's way beyond my knowlege.
<2> Hehe, ok, in the actionscript panel, there is on the top a little crosshair, it says "insert targetpath" or something similar. Use that to set your targets.. :)
<1> ok
<1> Ok, that worked, but without me knowing why... but I guess that's alot better than not knowing at all. Thanks alot!
<2> NP.. :o)
<1> What's "instance of" good for anyway?
<1> And what differs object named (Object) and Object
<3> is there a time length limit on an encoded flv file? like can it be 30 minutes or does it have to be stitched or something like that?
<4> I've gotten 20 minutes before
<4> never tried higher
<3> ok
<3> well i guess im about to find out then
<4> good luck
<4> have fun
<4> dont die
<4> kick ***
<3> wil do
<3> man Squeeze 4.2 is pretty damn fast
<3> damn near done encoding already
<3> hope thats a good sign
<3> brb
<5> I have created a large number of buttons after copy-pasting from a source and now all all of them are the same instance of symbol 120. Is there a way to slice them into different instances? I'm trying to switch the fill color, but it is applied to all buttons. Any ideas? :)
<6> i have question
<6> in my xml i have <1><crap>data</crap><blah>data</blah><dum>data</dum></1>
<6> i know <1></1> is firstChild
<7> guys is there a flash trainer program out there... reading these tutorials is like watching paint dry
<6> would <2></2> be secondChild or firstChild[1]
<5> WHYLEY there are no shortcuts, but there are plenty of video tutorials out there
<5> but none of them are free
<7> argh.... whats the best way to learn the basics?
<7> i'm hurtin see i dont even know the basic operation...
<5> umm
<7> i try to figure it out but no go
<7> i just tried a simple fade and i cant get it to work.....
<5> like I said, there's no shortcut
<5> fade? :)
<7> fade text
<5> you know what a tween is?
<7> yea.. thats movement right?
<5> no not really
<8> yes really
<8> tweening is the scripted sequence of moving or transforming an object on scene
<8> it's a more efficient method than hand animating all the frames to get the same result
<7> thats my nightmare
<7> i tried to hand animate it
<8> well, you can code it, it's a lot more efficient and smooth -- the only problem is im guessing you don't know anything about actionscript?
<5> SupaShaD, you know how to code alpha 0 to 100 tween?
<8> yea
<8> it's pretty ****in easy
<5> show me!
<5> :)
<9> SupaShaD is going to make his own flash
<9> SLASH
<9> =D
<8> learn actionscript :P but since i am in a generous mood:
<7> i dont know anything about anything to do with this
<7> i'm trying to learn as much as fast as possable... any help would be appreciated
<9> you know what is the problem with scripters they kinda get the idea in their head but they dont to translate it
<8> movieClip.onEnterFrame = function() { if(this._alpha < 1) { this._alpha++; } };
<9> you must make some kinda of AI bot
<10> guys, a more complex about dynamic text visibility, anyone?
<8> woops
<9> that can create a script from a "good english sentence"
<7> woa
<8> that's supposed to say if(this._alpha < 100)
<7> ~[ SupaShaD ]~ no idea
<10> i have an AS-generated textfield and here i load stuff from a db
<9> :O
<8> not 1
<10> i'd like to show the results at the end of an animation and even if i set the visibility to zero text just appears
<10> any clue?
<8> whyley -- i suggest if you want to learn you head on over to www.actionscript.org and check out the tutorials section
<7> thanks
<8> no problem, they have tutorials ranging from beginner to advanced
<9> khaan dont know but you have to something with embed
<8> so as you go along you can learn more about it
<9> i think
<9> =D
<8> khaan embed the font in the dynamic text box
<10> tried to embed; embedded the font in both library and textfield but looks like a no go
<11> can a .swf compiled in Flash MX (6) have an XMLSocket connect on port 444 (lower than 1024, but possible w/ a feature in F7 plugin) ?
<8> textField.embedFonts = true;
<9> u see something with embed ;D
<10> _scrollText._myFont.embedFonts = true; should do, right?
<9> _myFont?
<9> is that your textfield?
<10> oh, wait
<10> ok
<10> i'm stupid :D
<9> =)
<8> :)
<9> SupaShaD you have any clue how to make this: www.whosnextonline.com
<10> now it works :D
<9> the flash part bellow
<5> SupaShaD, I entered this on my on (roll
<5> Over
<8> i do, but i wouldn't want to
<5> _root.logo1.onEnterFrame = function() { if(this._alpha < 100) { this._alpha++; } };
<5> but that's not doing the trick
<5> what am I doing wrong? :)
<10> thx guys, good night :D
<8> np khaan
<8> daddybadd, well that's a particularly slow method, if you have a slow framerate it's only gonna be increasing the alpha by 1 per frame
<8> if you only watched it for like 3 seconds it's unlikely you saw a change
<8> if you wanna speed up the increase use this._alpha += 5;
<8> yeh i know how to make something like that sanz, would i ever want to? **** no :|
<5> well, I put this script into a button, which is set to launch _root.logo1
<9> :O
<5> but the logo just appears instantly
<9> what do i need to know
<9> i never understand how they make those "newest upload" **** etc
<9> is everything PRE drawn
<9> or is it a function that draws everythgin
<8> you can use php to catch uploads to a folder
<9> yeah that part i got
<8> scan the folder, tag the contents, and deliver results to xml
<9> i mean the Pure flash part
<8> the newest uploads are tagged because they weren't there the previous scan, when the xml is pulled into flash it arranges it by which is newest
<12> N00b question: How do I stop a movie from looping?
<9> if i had the fla i open it .. you would see something on stage for example 10 dummy's
<9> or everything gets drawn
<8> as for the text/flash ****e, you have an mc loaded up as a template button, for every addition to the folder you knock one already drawn button off, scoot everything down, and then tack on a new button and fill it's vars with information you gleen from the xml file
<8> ie. title/album/type/post date/sample location
<8> it's pretty basic, the concept
<8> you have a blank in the library, you fill up specified area as files are uploaded until you reach a certain point
Return to
#flash
