ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating Flash Game With Story Dialogue
Mar 9, 2011
I'm using Macromedia Flash Professional 8 at the moment, and I'm fairly inexperienced with actionscript and most Flash processes. What I'm looking to do is create a game of sorts where characters appear on either side of the screen and a dialogue box appears at the bottom with text scrolling across every time the player clicks "Next" or whatever, and the characters' mouths move and their eyes blink as the text scrolls. We're using voice actors so we'd put an audio clip at the start of each piece of dialogue.

So i need to create a 3D game in flash. What is the best way of doing that? Do I need to use Papervision 3D, or can I just import 3D animations and code it in Flash?

I'm sort of new to Flash, have been using it for ages but just to animate, i haven't done any programming or interactive stuff for years, so i feel new to it again!Creating a very simple platform.Movie clip of the character (instance name z_1)- runs button - when pressed makes z_1 invisible and loads another movieclip of him firing a weapon (z_fire). (also makes ground stop moving- basically game is a static running animation, over a moving ground, if that makes sense)This all works fine, i even figured how to make the score increase!After the firing animation is finished (there is a stop on the movieclip) i want the original running animation to be visible again and for the ground etc to play again. The firing animation is only 12 frames long so i imagine i need to tell the button to resume normal service on the stage after that time period![code]It's probably completely wrong but it works, i just need to know the extra code to make the original animations start back again after z_fire has played.

I am creating a blit game and as of right now, the only thing that is blitting is the world itself (i.e. roads, fences). i was planning on displaying my character as a sprite and any interactive objects that it comes by as sprites as well.PickUps, Houses, Enemies. I was wanting to know what are the best practices when it comes to this. does this seem wise. When normallying blitting a game, how much of the game is actual blit, and how much should be display objects.

Creating a pacman-style game using Flash (AS3). There are 3 players competing to eat the most dots. Right now when one player eats a dot, on that player's screen the dot goes away (but only for a second) and appears again in the screen. The other player playing, doesn't see that the dot went away and reappeared.Using hitTestObject, when a player touches a dot, the dot should no longer be seen on the stage. I'm using shared object to create this multi-player game environment. I'm new in using SharedObject and also AS3.

As you may have seen from my previous posts, I am creating a side-scrolling action game in Flash/Actionscript 3.0. Right now I am trying to get enemy objects to face the player's direction. Here is what I mean (dartD1 is an instance of the enemy character object. If its scaleX is 1, it's facing right; if its scaleX is -1, it's facing left):

I'm building an RPG game and need help with the dialogue. I have no idea how to go about it. What I want to set up is something that after approaching a character and pressing spacebar (or any key), text displays with an image to the left of the character speaking. I've tried looking up tutorials but they all seem to be for CS3 (I am using Flash 8).
I currently have no code whatsoever to share, since...I don't know where to start =/ . Source codes would be appreciated, but most of all, I'd love a link to a tutorial or past thread that explains in detail (and layman terms...) how to do something like this, since I want to learn as I go.

I am creating interactives that are interfaced via touchscreens. When someone holds their finger on the screen for more than a few seconds, a settings pop-up appears where the zoom, etc. can be changed in flash. Is there a way to disable this? I use flash cs3 - as2.

I have a site that has the main path under password protection. I also have a subfolder that have a separate (htaccess/htpasswd) password protection. For some reason, when I access the subfolder, I'm asked to put in my id/password twice. All of the files that are referenced are under the subfolder.
What should I be doing to troubleshoot this? I've tried this on different browsers and it's the same behavior. There is one main html page with a .swf (the only thing on the page)...it loads other assets but they are within the same subfolder.

I am trying to do semi animated read-along online storybooks for kids and I would like to display the story/narration karaoke style so kids could see the story and be able to read along. I have been looking at karaoke software to do the text and voice synchronization and so far haven't had that much luck.
Synchronization is very important. I don't want to simply do an animated color mask over the test and have the text change color. Besides there are plenty of books I need to convert and the process needs to be simply automated and executed. Here is an example, [URL]

I've been wanting to learn to work with Flash for awhi l e and decided to start learning by attempting a game. I found a decent tutorial for a space shooter and used it to create the basic code (firing, etc...) and now I've been figuring out how to add other elements (splash screen/scrolling screen).now I'd like to add power-ups but can't figure out how.I've created a graphic, turned it into a movie clip, but can't think of what to define for its actions.

I've tried a variety of tutorials and had no success in creating a preloader for my game.I can't seem to get all of my library items to load in frame 1 properly. Any tutorials that I try do not achieve the preloader effect that I desire.What I would really, really like is this:A .swf file that wraps my .swf game and puts in a preloader.That's it.How do I do this, or specifically, what should I be typing into the search window of this forum?

I'd like to port my Zuma-like game to browsers. It's not really complex 2D arcade game, just some animations and particle systems - really similar in complexity to the one I linked to.I'm wondering what technology should I use. I'm thinking about Java, Flash or maybe some solution working without a plugin (SVG, Canvas?). The cost of the technology is also really important to me (I'd prefer a free solution of course, but don't know if it's possible).It's really probable that I'll also port the game to Anrdoid and iPhone. Maybe if I picked Java, I could write one version that would work on both: browsers and Android phones?

I'd like to know if it would be better for programming and for code organization if I'd create a Console class, which would be used for game settings and to start a game, and another Game Class, which would be used for the game itself, like movements, conditionals, scores, etc.

I am attempting to create a game that will simulate groceries coming down a conveyor belt. The player acts as a bagger and must click and drag the groceries into designated bags (one for cold food and one for non-cold food). When the correct choice is made the food will disappear and the score will increase +1.
I have become overwhelmed by thinking about how to do this and have not found helpful answers that actually work when I try to compile them so I decided to ask. how I can have random grocery items fall down the screen? I assumed I could create an array of movieclips and have them be called to fall down randomly, but I am not sure how this would work.

I have been working on a game (Pokemon haha) since around the beginning of June. I just started experimenting with Classes today and I've run into some big problems (as expected). I have many SharedObjects in my game and I started the game when I barely understood any code. But I've worked on it a lot and learned so much. Right now, I'm trying to create Classes so that I can save time and be more efficient with my code. But... With my first major attempt, I failed.
This is what I want to do:
Create a Class that will switch a bunch of SharedObjects in my game. I don't need the switching part (because that worked before when the code wasn't in a class), just the creating the class part that involves SharedObjects.
This is basically what I have:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.net.SharedObject;
class GrassLife {
so = SharedObject.getLocal("so_file");
function Life() {
so.data.variable7 = so.data.variable2;
so.data.variable2 = so.data.variable1;
so.data.variable1 = so.data.variable7;
//The variables switch at this part
}}

am creating a simple flash game where you rotate a planet to make the buildings on the planet avoid incoming meteors.I was told that there is another just like it already, but I don't want to see it because it may restrict my imagination.
I have everything pretty much planned out now in a "game script" of everything that i want to happen. only thing is, i'm not sure where to start.Actually,i implemented rotating the planet and the timer so far, but that is all.I was wondering if anyone wouldn't mind reading through my game script and pointing me in the right direction.I am trying to wrap my head around creating classes to handle different aspects of the game, but not sure what to put in a class and what not to.I attached the game so far and the word file
