I have an 11 song .xml playlist that flash is calling into a movie clip and can be controlled by an mp3 player. When my site loads for my band, i want the same song to play everytime. As of now, it just randomly chooses a song out of the 11 song playlist.

View 9 RepliesI was wondering how would i go about making a simple application that can be run on a website that can:
-show a opening page that will stay for 5 seconds (for advertisments)
-show random pictures (well they will only be text)
-can change slide by clicking on screen.
I have created some code that creates a blue circle of random size on the stage, and startmoving it in a random direction, at a random speed.
But I'd like to create this as a static class, so that I can just import into a banner and make multiple instances appear at a time, but my limited knowledge doesn't allow me to
Here is my code:

I know making a random number divisible by 10 means it isn't so random after all, but stick with me. Imagine a game grid of tiles that are 10x10 pixels. I want to place a 10x10 sprite randomly on the game grid. I've got everything working other than getting my random number function to return random numbers that are divisible by 10. If I give it a range of 10 and 50, I want it to only return 10, 20, 30, 40, 50. You know what I mean. Here's my function:

I was planning on making a random message appear, but, when I did try it , all appear really quick and were impossible to read. Is there anyway to make a timer in actionscript, for example to make a message change every 5 seconds or so? And also, someone mentioned to me a component, and I'm not a fan of the components, so if anyone can help me out and either give me a url to creating a timer,

Code:

The only problem is that the numbers are way to fast I'd like them to be 1/2 if not 3/4 the speed that they are. how can I do that?
well i've read the random movement tutorial but now i only want things to move randomly horizontelly; on the x axis. I'm pretty sure this is possible since most things are with flash so would anyone know what AS would be used? i've treid the one here: [URL] and deleting stuff that i think is not relevant. But i keep getting more and more erros each time i try to fix something...so anyone know what the AS would be? thx
View 1 RepliesMy game is simple game where you are a block at the bottom of the screen and you have to move side to side to avoid larger blocks that are falling from above. Now the only problem is that i am very nw to action script so i have no idea of the code i need to insert in my MC. So far i have been able to make the players block move from side to side with the arrow keys and make a block fall from the top with this very pathetic script i found out:
PHP Code:
onClipEvent(EnterFrame) {
this._x += 5
}
I was wondering if anyone could give me some code so that the players block will stop moving when it hits the side of the stage and that the block that falls down will apper at the top again but with a random Y position on the stage.

View 2 RepliesI have 10 movieclips on stage called mc1 mc2 etc ect and then I have one button which makes one of the mc's alpha = 0;The only thing is I would love the evenlistener add the number created by the array to be put after mc & "array number".So what the button should do is create one of the mc's visible whilst all others are not, and this should happen randomly without an mc showing up twice.

I have been making a shooting game(birds-eye view), and have put 'Bots' into it but i seem to be have trouble making the bots spawn randomly over the entire map. (550w x 400h-the usual)I have tried using the Math.random function but it only picks between 0 and 1; is there a way to make Math.random choose between 0 - 550 (for the width of screen) ???Or would i have to make some function for that purpose?

View 1 RepliesThere will be a "pool" of SWF files- I would like to create a "shell" swf that will load an external XML file that will determine which of the files in the "pool" the shell will play. I guess this would be called an XML-driven SWF playlist.Forgive me if my terminology is rather primitive- again, I'm new to XML (I'm an animator by trade.)
View 1 RepliesFor a project, I'm making an interactive side scroller.You move the character with the arrow keys and press the space bar to interact with things.So far, I followed DexNote's tutorial on YouTube.I thought that I would make the interactable objects as buttons, while the mouse focus would be on the character and when you press the space bar it make a mouse click in that area.The trouble I'm having now is that I don't know how to make the space bar trigger the "interactions."
View 1 RepliesI followed along with Lee Brimlow's video playlist tutorial utilizing the list component and XML - easy enough. I'm looking to add another level of complexity to a playlist which would involve some sort of checkbox or radio buttons associated with each item in a playlist. You could then choose to display only 2 or 3 videos of a 10 video playlist, for example.I'm not expecting anyone to write the script out for me. However, I would be very appreciative if anyone could steer me in the right direction to get started. I've been searching for things like "selectable playlist" but that of results in a playlist that allows you to select which item to display.

View 2 Replies[code]I need to read this file in flash and list the songs one under another to build a playlist. Not sure if I should do this in an mc, text area, listbox? But either way, I don't know how to list the songs, no matter how many.

View 14 RepliesI am building a flv player. At the end of the movie I would like it to advance to the next movie. I currently have this.
Code:
if (Math.round(loader_mc.scrub_mc._x) >= Math.round(loader_mc.loadbar_mc._width)) {
nextMovie();
}
Is this the best way to detect when a movie is done or is there a better way. I don't really like my method because it potentially could cut off a half a second of video.
I have an as3 mp3 player that loads a random file from an xml list so every time the user opens the player a random song plays and when song finishes or the user skips the song it goes to a random song also.
