I'm having a hard time creating a Flash using Flash 5. The first loop asks for a number of participants. The next loop, you select or enter the name of the beverages available. The third, and more complicated loop - Up to 4 randomly selected beverages are selected and a percentage (for mixing) are provided. For example;

I am building an ambitious site especially for someone new to the Flash.I want to create a fully functional Flash Forum.Only problem is I have not found 1 site with information on how to build one and the only thing I did find was something called the Flash Forum Engine. It is a 3rd party software suite that allows you to build a Flash Forum BUT! it costs 1000 Euro's or $2000.

View 1 RepliesMy goal is to make a flash/as3 program that would pull multiple sets of data (images and texts) from the database and compile and save a flash video project for each one. What might be the best way to go about making this work? I checked but wasn't able to find a function that would publish the flash project in it's current state, so I don't think I can execute the entire process in a single flash/as3 file. My only other option is to have some other program/batch file take care of the querying the database and compiling multiple flash/as3 movies by starting up a flash program and passing it the parameters of the data it needs to build 1 complete project for 1 set of data. Is there a program to create .swf files automatically? Is it even possible to pass in init params to flash/as3 project?
View 1 RepliesEvery time I package an android application and run it from my phone it really distorts images/movieclips.I can see slight transparancies around movieclips that shouldnt be there, images look pixelated, when played on the computer it shows no issues with any of it.Are there any tips or tricks to solving this?Also the performance just is spotty on the devices. Was using flash cs5 and just DL the trial of 5.5.Also is there a place to look at best practices for optimizing adobe air applicatiosn for mobile devices?
View 1 RepliesA rather large project (rich web application) has fallen into my lap and I am unfamiliar with how to accomplish a major functionality. in the right direction.I need users to be able to customize a 3D avatar and store it on the server somehow. The user can choose a body type, hair style, hair color, clothing, accessories, etc. The user can then choose from a number of different environments to place their avatar into, a specific animation (dance moves, playing an instrument, etc.), and an audio file. The audio file would then play while the avatar performed the animations within the selected environment.
How should we go about doing this? What technology should we use? Ideally, my colleagues and I would use MoCap software (w/ Microsoft Kinect) to complete 3D base models and animations for the avatars. Is it possible to then dynamically skin / texturize the models with the user's stored avatar? If so, how would I accomplish this? Does anyone have any other suggestions on how we would go about solving this problem?
I am working with CS3. yesterday I have finished my Website without an error message. Today I wanted to work again but I had this message error :
"Error during the creation of the file of the Flash animation. To check that the file of destination is not in reading alone or is not already used by another application. Also check that the name of the file is not too long."
I'm making an app with flash AS3 and puremvc, the way to correctly handle view mediators is sort of throwing me a little...I have 3 or 4 distinct views, each governed by it's own mediator.Each view is only displayed on its own - ie. when 1 is visible/on stage - the others are invisible/removed from stage (over simplified, but I guess could be thought of as seperate pages, viewed one at a time, a nav bar allows a user to change views when they like)
At first each view mediator I had creating and added to stage it's own view component, and as such, when it was 'turn' to show or hide that view, it was simple - addChild and removeChild for it's view component.However, I read over at puremvc.org that it's not good practice to
a. pass round the stage (which was the viewComponent for each mediator in my case - where each view was added to - eg. viewComponent.addChild(foo)
b. create its own view - which allowed me to add and remove it in the first place.
So I changed to the recommended way - when I create each mediator, what I pass in is the view component it governs (rather than the stage/main doc class eg.
var view:MyView = new MyView();
facade.registerMediator( new MyViewMediator( view ) );
viewComponent.addChild(view);
with that the case - I have no idea how I would go about removing/adding each view when needed.I could easily enough set the visibility from within each mediator, but I sort of wanted to avoid doing that - prefer removing when not in use for resource management...how I am 'meant' to go about this (as in, when a view is no longer needed on stage, remove it - temporarily, and add it later on when it is needed?)
I am try to go from a main scene to a second scene in Flash. The code work just fine to take me there, but when the scene appears it seems that I lose focus with the scene and the actions that should runs doesn't until I click once on the screen. Now I am using a button to navigate from one scene to another. If I use a movieclip instead of a button then everything works just fine. In my second scene I am using the keyboard to control different things in the scene.

I have an Actionscript coded flash file which run perfectly without any error. I am not getting why it shows an error after i do insert a scene before or a frame before the current frames;
[Code]...
so I have some buttons that, as of right now, simply trigger the scene to move on while at the same time killing some particle effect animations I have spawning when the animation is idle. What I now need to do is make these events move on to a specific scene AFTER the rest of the scene's animation has played out (about 400 more frames) I'm figuring that the gotoAndPlay command has to be tied to some sort of timer variable that I would have to figure out based on my fps. Or maybe there is a way to set up a timer directly tied to a certain amount of frames allowed to go by. I'm pretty noob at actionscript, so keep that in mind. Here is the script at the point where the animation pauses to await user input on the buttons:

View 3 RepliesI'm trying break down a large Flash project into smaller swf's using a Loader :
stop();
var reqA:URLRequest = new URLRequest("New_Inro.swf");var loaderA:Loader = new Loader();
function imageLoadedA(event:Event):void { addChild(loaderA);} loaderA.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageLoadedA);loaderA.load(reqA);
Some of these swf files are animations which have code that states :
MovieClip(parent).gotoAndStop("frameThree");
The first loader works but I cannot get that swf to move on to the next frame(frameThree) to load the next swf file
Instead I get this message

I've created a class which simulates an action for example a ball bouncing about a screen thus I'd create it like so:
Code:
var Ball1:ball = new ball(x,y);
How would I go about adding this to a loop, in a sense of every frame add another ball till you reach the maximum balls
currently after looking in help, google and forums this is all I could find
Code:
var ["Ball"+currentball]:ball = new ball(x,y);
but this doesn't seem to work and just causes
"**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=balls, frame=1:Line 15: Identifier expected"

View 11 RepliesI have an eventListener on a particular movieClip that triggers the timeline to play when clicked. This should play through a short tween, then hit another piece of actionscript in the last frame of that scene, which should take you to the next scene. I also have an audio file loaded into a soundChannel, as well as a few timers that operate a click prompt over the movieClip already mentioned. My bug is that if you click on said movieClip before the soundChannel is finished playing, all functions properly. However, if you wait for the sound to finish, this initiates a few timers that cause a prompt to fade in, telling you to click on the movieClip. If you click on it, still, everything works fine. But once the timers complete their work, and the click prompt fades back out, the tweens do not operate properly. If you then click on the movieClip, the timeline seems to play doubletime until coming to a stop() action in the next scene.

jumping from from scene to scene once the play head reaches the end in AS3? Scenes do not play one after another like they used to. Below is some code I found that works with errors, however I'm not using a MC like the code displays "mc1". Not really sure on how the MC fits in? import flash.display.Scene; var scene:Scene = mc1.currentScene;trace(scene.name + ": " + scene.numFrames + " frames");

I made a scene with movement and everything, but when I convert it to a symbol I lose the movement frames. I want to be able to import it as an object so that the animation loops for as long as I need it to in the other project.
View 1 Repliesis at all possible to load a movie at a particular scene rather than it launching into the first scene automatically? Or is this impossible?
View 1 Repliesi am making an animation, i have about 8 scenes. for some reason it starts playing the sound from the next scene in the middle of the current scene. why?? i checked movie explorer and the sound is in another scene. does that sound like a flash bug, or just me? it is a big file, could that be it.
