View 21 RepliesSo what I'm looking to do now is to actually get that movie clip - in this case an arrow -to rotate around another object - a ship - at a radius of 150 pixels and facing the mouse.This basically means to get the arrow to follow where the mouse goes around the ship - limited by the 150 pixel radius circle it can follow.p.s. This is the code so far:
ActionScript Code:
theArrow.x = theShip.x
theArrow.y = theShip.y

I know how to do stuff in flash. Ok, so here's what I want to know..on this guessing game, I want the person to enter in their 1 - 3 digit guess, the the number they need to guess is 577 (later I want to make this random whenever they go to play it). If they guess under 577, I have a box to say their guess is too low. If they guess over 577, it says their guess is too high. However, I am not sure how to make it so that what they put in the text box, it takes it as the new variable. I know this may sound confusing, but here is the .fla file.URL...
View 5 RepliesI'm writing a Flash game for a class that is supposed to test elementary kids' math skills. After each activity is completed, Flash sends the results to our database (e.g., that 8/10 math problems were answered correctly). If the user is in the middle of an activity and hits our Logout button, we'll send what results they had to the database anyway. But if the user closes out of the browser in the middle of an activity, is there a way to quickly send stuff to the database before the swf dies?
View 2 Replieshow to code where it should move towards (that's easy), and I know somewhat how to use math stuff on flash. But when I tried to implement it on this, it doesn't work. See code:
angleA = Math.atan2(TARGET._y-HERO._y, TARGET._x-HERO._x);
var degrees = angleA/(Math.PI/360);
BULLET._rotation = degrees;
It is correctly placed, don't worry about that.
I'm sure it's been discused before ..but I can't seem to be able to find it in the masses of photo gallery questions..So here it is;I want to load pictures/swf's etc into flash ..no problem.However, i want them to resize (proportionally) so they fit inside the movieclip holder.I'm ok with a solution where you have to state the size in XML, aslong as they fit in the movie clip.Code:
Code:
delay = 10000;
function loadXML(loaded) {

I am fairly new to Flash and I am creating a simple Flash login programme in Flash. If I type in the correct password or even if I type in the wrong password it always goes to frame 3 which is "Login Failed! Username or password was wrong". I have attached .fla file. Note I created in Macromedia Flash 8.

View 1 Repliesok, i have a database with two tables. one table holds the following:table 1 name: lotscolumns: lot_id, number, description, status_idtable 2 name: statusi have a php script that goes as follows (i'm ignoring the description fields for now):
PHP Code:
<?php
// database connection variables

how to pre-load the stuff flash loads from xml -.- (actually the thumbnails, that need to be ready at cache for the roll-over effects). After looking a few tutorials and scrpts i have found in the i came to some conclusions but, fortunately, what i found checks the loading process for the individual items, while i need to get the sizes all together to add them in the loader.... I'm pretty clueless right now how to do that.
What i think i need is to create an array for the thumb attribute of my xml's nodes, and find a way to process the size of that all together using something like a shift + a variable for total size.... but well... i right now only think " i need to do that" but i have no clue of how =.=.
i have a database with two tables. one table holds the following:[code]i have a php script that goes as follows (i'm ignoring the description fields for now):[code]now i'm not 100% sure this script is correct, so if anyone sees problems in it, please do let me know. i know that it needs some additions to pull the linking table (status) to display the status_id, but i have no clue how to write that as im not familiar with php, i just took this script from a user on this forum (i apologize for forgetting your name) and edited it.
anyway, i want to be able to pull out all those fields and load them up in flash so i can use them in the scripts over there.i have a grasp on the LoadVars(); a bit but not sure how to pull all this out and if its correct so that i can use it in flash. the fields im most worried about using is the number field in the lots table and the status_id (in both i guess since its a linking table).
Can I insert stuff like headers (<h1>) and meta keywords into flash?
View 1 RepliesI have a picture that I want to be my background. So I put it around the stage, but when I test my movie in a web browser, only my stage shows. Is there a way I can get it to all show? I don't really care if my background is cut off, as long as you can see it, because it's a tile sort of picture.

View 1 RepliesI'm a total noob to Flash, and I'm learning it because I want to make a website design that looks like this.
That's coming from a separate external .fla file not inside my Gaia project. I currently have a Gaia 3.2.6/FP10/AS3 project with Timeline animation that I just made up today.The problem is that when I copy and paste those graphic symbols (not the background), into the 1st frame of my home.swf of my Gaia project, the preloader freezes at 50% on the home page.
When I remove the forms from my seperate external .fla file, then copy and paste them into the 1st frame of my Gaia project, the preloader freezes at 100%.When I draw a square onto the first frame of home.swf, the page loads normally.
Im trying to learn Adobe Flash and making some stuff and that export it to my iPad. It doesnt have to be Shared Object, just read on internet that it could be used. But i dont know.
I need a save and load function. Im gonna explain why and how. Im making a test game. When the player finish a level another level on the "Level select" screen should be unlock.
So, when player open my game first time. Level 2 is locked. When he finish Level 1 he can play Level 2.I got some help with this and got it to work like this:
[Code]...
That means if Player hits goal he get send back to frame 2 and "level2played" gets true and he can click and play level2. But this doesnt ofcourse get saved when the app get closed. So i kinda need it to be saved. So if Player hits goal in level 1, this "level2played=true;" gets saved.
I'm trying to find a way that I can control how a flash movie handles the click event from the HTML page outside the movie.
I run a website where we have advertising space for Flash Ads provided by our customers which, when clicked, open their own website in a new browser window (i.e. target='_blank') - however this causes us a few issues:
1.) We want to track the success of their ads, so we give them a custom URL that their ad should link to instead of linking directly to their site. This URL logs the click before redirecting the browser to the customer's website.
2.) Often the flash files we get use GetUrl() which seams to trigger the popup blockers in IE 7 & 8.
These two points mean we have to provide them with the custom URL for them to include in their flash ad, and/or tell them how to set up the movie to handle the clicks in a way that doesn't trigger the IE popup blocker, and this doesn't make it as seamless as it should be to place an ad on our site.
So, what I'm trying to do is find a way that I can reference the Flash movie object with JavaScript (or similar), and set the click event to open up a specified URL - so if the customer's flash movie doesn't have the right URL set in it, or is triggering IE's popup blocker it doesn't matter because when we display it, we can modify the event handler to use the correct URL and to open up their website without tripping any popup blockers.
Is there any way to make it so that the width and height of the stage will be whatever the user resizes the browser to? I know how to do it in flash because you just resize the window, but doing when I do it in a browser I always end up with a scroll bar because you have to specify pixels.
So I tried doing a 100% by 100% width and height value in html. It keeps the proportions..so there is always a space on the top and bottom or left and right...
i'm making an "EBook" for my GCE in applied ICT and i want to use a Flash handler to view a PDF document. So far i've converted the PDF file to images and Imported them (on the fly encorperating XML). while this was an alright way to work the images become pixelated when zoomed in/out so i was wondering if anyone has done something like this before and if so how they went about it?

If I run add('movie123'). How do I get the string 'movie123' in the enter_frame_handler function? UPDATE This forum post (Click Here) describes the issues I am having but doesn't provide the solution I am looking for. Luckily @kapep provided a simple solution that solved the issue.
I made a flash movie with different layers, on the first layer i add a action script by pressing F9 stop(); & as it works it stop movie.
now on the next line of the same layer i write this
onClipEvent (mouseUp) {
new_mov.parent.play();
}
But it shows me error that its for movie instance, & if i create a movie & then copy my frames & enter it in the move it said you cant enter symbol inside symbol
Any thoughts on a good way to accomplish something along the lines of
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://myurl.com");
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, function(event:Event):void {
System.setClipboard(loader.data);
});
It seems as if System.setClipboard() isn't available inside an event handler (which makes at least some sense given what I know about Flash security).get it to work? or block on the URL load so that I can then call setClipboard() in the main event flow?
I'm trying to add a custom callback handler to a NetStream client in a p2p application. The problem is, when I add such a handler, the NetStream Client doesn't function as it did before. It seems the NetStream.client object is changed. I know the default object is this. But changing the client to this doesn't solve the problem.The remoteControlStream, is the incoming stream. And the localControl stream is the stream being publishedThis is the localControlStream that's being send by the peer, and received as remoteControlStream:
private function initLocalControlStream():void{
localControlStream = new NetStream(nc, NetStream.DIRECT_CONNECTIONS);
localControlStream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, localControlHandler);
localControlStream.publish(myPeerID+"control");[code]...
The onPeerConnect method of the localControlStream doesn't get called when I connect when the above handler is added. When I remove the that handler, the onPeerConnect method gets called.
I have a simple video/chat application built in FLEX. I've created a groupSpecifier,netGroup and a NetStream for the different functionalities. NetGroup is mainly used for the messaging (Posting) and keeping track of the users who enter.NetStream is (or would be used) to control some functions like "start video, stop video" for everyone under the same group.The most important functions I will post on here. The first is setupGroup.
private function setupGroup():void{
var groupspec:GroupSpecifier = new GroupSpecifier("vid"+GROUP_ID+"_sid_"+SESSION_ID);

I'm using the following to extract the sound data from a sound object and store this in a byte array.
I require that the entire mp3 be loaded into the bytearray before advancing and the below works fine for this purpose however flash temporarily hangs while it extracts this data (2.4mb mp3)
Is there a way i can stop it from hanging i.e. use an eventlistener to check the progress of the extract process?
