ActionScript 1/2 :: Produce Random Of Images In A Flash Movie?
Nov 14, 2010
I have used a code to produce random of images in a flash movie:
var ldr:Loader=new Loader();addChild(ldr);ldr.load(new URLRequest("ima00" + (Math.ceil(Math.random()*5)) + ".jpg"));
With that code, besides the random of images each time you acess the website (that is ok!), it keep changing the images while you still with the swf open. We would like to change it, making it to load a different image each time we get in the web site, but making the images to keep still, not changing while the film is open.

I do have a problem to make jpeg images random in a swf movie.
I have found a tutorial which explains people to apple a single line of code:
imagenes_mc.loadMovie("ima00" + (1+random(5)) + ".jpg");
to the first frame of the movie which contains an empty mc "imagenes_mc" which should load a diferent JPEG each time someone gets into the website.
Thing is: ON my published swf nothing happens with that code and on the output windown i get "1120: Acess of undefined property mages_mc" and also "1180: Call to a possible undefined method random"

I tried to change the publish settings back and forth, but using Flashplayer 8,9 or 10 and actionscript 2.0 or 3.0 doesn't make any difference.

I am trying to implement a random slideshow type thing which would be fine if all of the images were in the one folder, but i want to randomly display them from multiple folders... if I define each path as a variable, is that the easiest way?
ActionScript Code:
var pathaURL:String = "folder1/slideshow/";
var pathbURL:String = "folder2/slideshow/";
var pathcURL:String = "folder3/slideshow/";
and then somehow implement the randomness with the image variable...?

I'm looking to display three images, chosen at random on load, throughout the duration of a banner ad.Basically, these images are health tips displayed on post it's - as it plays, the post-it's fly off, revealing the next tip.I also need ensure that the images don't repeat I 'm mostly a timeline guy, but I've been learning AS and have no problem getting one image to display randomly - however the three separate ones with no repeat is throwing me off.
My thoughts are to are to either
a) Put all the images on separate frame within 3 MC's, and somehow display a random frame within that clip on load, ensuring no repeat
or
b) Load the images into 3 separate MC's through and XML doc, and pick one at random.
The images only appear one at a time - so I think each MC would only contain one of the 3 random images selected.So is it possible to load a random image into a MC,and then duplicate that MC without a chance of the image repeating?

Several months ago I created numerous flash files that use a wingdings checkmark. Recently I had to update these files, and now every single one of them displays as the Arial equivalent (umlauted u). It shows as the umlaut in FLA and in SWF. Selecting the unlauted u, looking at properties confirms the font is set to wingdings. Copying a wingdings checkmark out of another app and pasting into Flash, it immediately overwrites to the umlaut. In fact, changing it to any font just makes it a slightly different umlaut.
The easy question is, "What changed between when it worked, and when it doesn't?" and the answer is I'm not sure. It's the same Flash installation, same machine, same OS, etc. I've tested this with co-workers. Those who open the exact same file on XP machines see the checkmark. Those who open the exact same file on other Vista machines see the umlaut. I have an XP machine to my left, and a Vista machine to my right, and I'm seeing both a checkmark and an umlaut off the same FLA.

Heres a direct link to the swf. (Flash Player 9 Req) [URL] Note that it loads random images to the right.
Now, when I embed this same swf into the actual site: [URL]
I don't understand
I've taken out the new javascript embed code, just to make sure that wasn't messing things around, but to no avail.

If I hard code the php file with the values listed above, everything works perfectly. But I'm using a php script that checks the directory for images, then provides that output.

I'm a designer working in tandem with a PHP programmer on a project where we will display a random image via flash from a selection of images stored on a database. Accompanying this image is a tagline and a path for a button and these variables are sent via a php script. The actionscript then picks up these vars via loadVars and displays them on screen - well, almost.
The tagline is displaying in the dynamic text box with no problems, but I'm struggling with how to display the image in the empty MC I've created (called 'pic') and also to attach the path to the button I've created (called 'projectURL_btn'). I'm fairly sure it's something fairly simple but I just can't crack it.

im developing a match game for our website..i want to have about 6 external swfs for the cards that will be flipped over, and one main movie shell with 12 target clips that the 6 external files will load into. (each card needs to appear twice in the movie so that people can flip them over and match them)what would be the best way to randomly load in the cards into each of the 12 positions and make sure that each card gets loaded twice and no more.

I have 5 boxes on the stage as movie clips, each one with the same animation waiting to be targeted. What I need is a random script that will make them play in "random" order. This should occur after a few seconds of inactivity where they each play, but once there's mouse movement, whichever ones did animate should "reset" or play back to their original positions, (assuming there's more boxes and there's movement before all of them play). I have some code in there for arrays and some random script that isn't working right now. I just need the random setup, really. I may be able to figure out the time delay, (maybe), and then be able to tweak the rest of it for how I need. Right now, I've just simplified everything in a 5 box example hoping someone might be able to work with what I have.

making a simple animation with about 10 "coins" on screen. I have a movie clip that animates another movie clip flipping over. I want to pull a random movie clip from the library into the nested clip so that on each "flip" a random coin face comes up.I've put all the clip names into an array (coin1,coin2,coin3,etc.)I think it would be described as _root.coin_container.coin_animation.random_coin_hereThere will be 10 coin_container's on the main stage, with coin_animation nested inside. At the beginning of the animation a random movie clip from the array should be called into coin_animation, then coin_animation will run through a few frames, repeat, call another random movie clip and repeat.

As part of my brief, I have to create a small flash movie that will load a random quote (which is actually a jpeg image), fade it in to view, display it for a length of time (probably only 3-5 seconds), fade it out and then load another random quote. Is this possible to do, purely using actionscript? I can randomly load an image - I used the "Random Background Image" tutorial on this site - but getting the fading/pausing/fading then moving to another quote has got me stumped.
The images are imported into their own swf file that is loaded into a placeholder movie on the html page. I tried adding in a for loop to the individual swf and the placeholder movie, to loop through alpha property of the image (just to fade up for the moment, till I get it working) - but this didn't work at all. I could use tweens for the fading, but this could end up a mess and more work than it needs to be as there could be quite a lot of quotes added over time.

*Can two CS4's produce different published .swf from the same fileset?I have a flash suite written by a young man in China.When I test the .swf file in the suite it works fine.However I need to make some minor redesigns so I need to change the .fla file - but before I do I found that when I publish a new .swf from the .fla file (with all the necessary action scripts/xml etc in the right place) it doesn't produce the same outcome. Instead the navigation (next page, items per page etc) is missing.
When he does the same thing (I trust his integrity) he gets the new .swf with the navigation in tact.You can see the two outcomes at the web address below (mock data).There are no code changes, no library changes that I can find.So I thought maybe there is something about different settings or 'environments' that can affect the outcome?

I tried putting in an array but it caused all kinds of errors.

I have a set of images on the screen that is 5 x 5 rectangles. My objective is to constantly have images fade in on top of the existing images in one of these random positions. I have 200 images/movieclips that these will be pulled from.
I figured the best way to do this would be to have 25 pre-placed instances on the screen and have the script choose one randomly and then load a random movieclip into it.
The problem that I am having is that after it draws the first box it is not persistent, it disappears just before the next one
appears. I want them to stay forever or least until that particular image is completely covered up.
