I have a master to wich I'm loading external swf's. The preloader begins fine but when it reaches 10-12 % loaded the swf that I'm loading shows up. This leaves the preloader in it's place continuing counting... I want the preloader to stay until 100 % and THEN I want the external swf to show. Anyone understand my problem?
The code I'm using is this;
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
[code].....
I would be nearly done with this project if it wasnt for this teetheing problem.The preloader animation is a spinning 3D logo which must be seen at least up to the first rotation otherwise the logo get all uggly and that's unacettable for a company logo.How do I tell the 3Dlogo_mc to play till the end even if the percentage has reached 100% and only than go to frame 5?[code]

View 14 RepliesUsing AS3 here - [URL]. I've got lots of externally loaded videos on this site most of which are XML driven. The "SoundMixer.stopAll();" works as it should, basically. I include it on each destination frame. If you click the "Jump Creative" entry point a video is set to auto-load and play. Now try clicking away on News while the video is loading. If the user clicks away while the video is loading, the audio will kick in after navigating away and after it has loaded.
View 12 RepliesI'm loading an external .swf using the following code:
voiceover = new Sound ();voiceover.loadSound("Audio/Test.mp3", true);
The audio plays fine. My question is how can I create a pause, resume, rewind, or fast forward button for an external mp3?
Problem is that my rewind and fast forward buttons do not work properly in the sense that they start to mess up when you fast forward or rewind past the current scene. It seems to just skip through the whole movie and totally mess up the animation.the code for the controls is on a single layer and reads as the following:
stop();
play_btn.onRelease = function (){
play();

I have my main movie, and from there an external movie is loaded which has a scrollpane on it. Problem is the preloader will not show when the external swf is loaded...when the button is clicked, nothing happens for about 3 seconds and then eventually the scrollpane comes up. I have the preloader on Scene 2, and it works for all my other external swfs so I know its the scrollpane issue.[code]I have tried have the "export to first" frame linkage thing but that doesnt work... does anyone know how best to do this?
View 2 RepliesI am attempting to build a small slideshow using as3. I have built it on a transition extension. i have it working, but all the images are loaded into the library, given a class name to reference them and the rest is done based on the class names.in the as3 code a array has been set up all the class names listed like this:
Code:
image_movieclip_array = [
Image1,
Image2,
Image3
]
I have taken it a step further and created a xml file listing the url to the photos i want to load in but this is where i am lost the urls are being read successfully in, so the code can access the urls but im not sure from there how I actually import the images in, or how to assign each a seperate class , does the addchild command assign a class name that i can add to the above array?
I have text loading into a dynamic text field that is within a movie clip. The button I'm using to load that text is within a different movie clip. I found some code that I've altered to meet my needs, but the text doesn't show up and the scrollbar gets blown out.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI followed this tutorial on here for making a reusable actionscript preloader (link: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/acte...cliploader.htm). Works fine when loading a .jpg, but when attempting to load a .swf it doesn't work. It says it's loaded, but the .swf doesn't play!!! In fact, the .swf doesn't even show up!!! Is there some code I need to add to make a .swf play when loaded? Here's the code which went into a frame in the actions layer. It's the exact same code as in the source example for the tutorial, I just chopped out the buttons part of the code, and the fade in part and replaced the jpg URL, with my .swf URL. Sorry if it's really simple, I'm not an expert at AS.

I have just started messing around in flash and made a pretty cool site (...design wise, the action script part is my major problem right now) which is suppose to go online sometime soon. I used the following script to load an external SWF into my main SWF: (I placed this script in the main timeline of my 'main' movie on frame 100 or something)
[as]
if(this.contentHolder == Number(this.contentHolder)){
loadMovieNum("content1.swf",this.contentHolder);
} else {
this.contentHolder.loadMovie("content1.swf");
[/as]
The external swf is al working fine, the preloader, buttons and thumbnails behaviour. All except for one thing: the photos wont load when i click on the thumbnails. The external SWF is a photogallery with thumbnails. The script for the small thumbnails is as following: (I placed this on the first frame inside a movie clip of a movie clip which is staged in the main timeline).
[as]
var frameNum:Number;
function photoChange(){
_root.photos.gotoAndStop("img"+frameNum);
_root.photos.fader.gotoAndPlay(2);
} btn1.onRelease = function(){

I have weird problemo that involves mouse.hide and show. I have a button with this as on it,
Code:
on(rollOver) {
Mouse.hide();
}
on(rollOut) {
Mouse.show();
}
It works fine when it's previewd alone. But when i have my main,shell, movie load this movie that contains the button, it doesnt work at all. Am i supposed to use _parent somewhere?

View 4 Repliesunderstanding the use of an external class in Flash CS5/AS3. The need is to be able to encode/decode JSON and I have found a library that sounds good at: [URL]. But Im a bit confused as all the tuts show attaching code to an object (convert to symbol, export for AS frame 1). I'm not which one is the right one for my needs. All I need to do is read the JSON data and show the output in a text box much like I would with XML.

I'm having trouble getting an external.swf to show dynamic text in the parent swf. When I run the external swf by itself the text shows up fine, but when I try to load it into another swf using the MovieClipLoader the dynamic text doesn't show up.

View 6 RepliesI was wondering if it's possible to show a notification for new updates in a swf file.
Like what if I upload a .txt file somewhere and inside it there's a variable, something like;
Code:
newupdate="Version 2.0 is ready for download at domainname.com."
And this will show up in a text field somewhere in my swf file. Is this possible? Are there any pros and cons about using this method of notification?

Making a photo slide show to load as an external movie clip on my site when a button is pushed . Here is a link to the .swf file:[URL]..Basic problem: There is text that describes each set of 6 pictures. After the set of 6 pictures plays through the text is supposed to disappear and a new text appears to label the next set of 6 pictures. Problem is: the text doesn't disappear!
I made all the text layers a symbol/movie clip. I animated each text to disappear at a certain point in the timeline but when I test the movie the texts just remain there and build up one after the other.
When watching the movieclip, pay attention to the text in the lower left screen.

View 3 RepliesGot a 31fps .swf that when I play it in Flash from Test Movie plays at the proper speed. However, when I test it in a browser, the .swf plays about twice as fast.

View 5 RepliesI seem to be having a problem with removeMovieClip.In my little ol' game I've been working on, I have a big problem. The removeMovieClip command only works half of the time. When using the Desert Eagle, a slow-firing weapon, both bullet shells and bullets are duplicated and used properly, and remove themselves when their time has come as programmed. But when using an automatic weapon... it seems to be duplicated shells and bullets so fast that they don't remove themselves properly!
How it works: Let's take the bullet shells, for example. The bullet shells are created and run a bunch of scripts to fall realistically. Once they hit the ground they run an animation which makes a little sound, makes 'em bounce off the floor a bit then stay still for 5 seconds. After those 5 seconds, they're removed. It's that simple, yet it doesn't work.
I hate having to show everybody my stuff every time there's a bug but I trust you guys with my problems (this project is mostly for experience anyways). Try using the Pistol (1) and you'll see it working fine. Then try using the M4A1 (2) or the Steyr AUG (3) and press down on the mouse button for automatic mode. Those bullet shells won't dissapear. Warning: DO NOT aim at the box. I'm also having a problem removing those bullets, so it bugs when you aim at the box.
