-How would I make it so when my clip gets to a certain frame, it will randomly gotoAndPlay a random frame on a different scene?
-All of the frames that I want it to randomly go to are labeled.
I am making a small website out of flash and I have a photo gallery in a separate scene. I have five photo galleries and so I have five buttons that will lead to those five galleries.
The code of one of the five buttons is
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("Content_Photography");
}
Works great, but the first 10 frames of this new scene "Content_Photography" is an intro and then I would like that it would jump to the corresponding gallery that these galleries will be laid out on the timeline.
What would i put after _root.gotoAndPlay("Content_Photography");?
I know that you are not supposed to target a frame number but here's the deal.I have 2 scenes (Scene 1 and Scene 2). Both scenes are currently the same and I will be customizing them at a later date.The scenes are made up of multiple MC's and I need to target a particular frame. I have named the frame and tried the following script to no avail. When it does work, it goes to the first frame of Scene 2 every time like it is just traveling along the timeline and jumping to Scene 2.[code]

View 1 Replieshow to code a simple load sequence scene. This is how I had it set up in AS2 -I've got two scenes, "Scene 1" and "Scene 2". I've got a 10 frame shape tween in Scene 1. On the 9th frame, I assigned actionscript that will check to see if frame 40 of Scene 2 is loaded, and if it is, gotoAndPlay Scene 2, Frame 1. Then have action in frame 10 of Scene 1 that says to gotoAndPlay scene 1 frame 1 of the current scene. This way scene 1 loops until frame 40 of scene 2 is loaded, at that point, scene 2 frame 1 plays.
How could I set this up in AS3? Here is what I tried - I've got two scenes, "Scene 1" and "Scene 2". I've got a MC that is a simple shape tween that loops in the "Scene 1". I'm trying to assign codein "Scene 1" that will check to see if frame 40 of Scene 2 is loaded. If it is, gotoAndplay Scene 2 frame 1. If frame 40 of Scene 2 is not loaded, continure to loop the MC unitil it is. Here is the code I've got for the MC in the "Scene 1"

View 3 RepliesI want my movie, on loading, to start playing from a random frame. I know that in AS2 the code would be
Code:
gotoAndPlay (random (1825));
but I'm using AS3 and I can't figure out how to achieve the same thing here.
I am having trouble getting my flash to start on a random frame.I have looked at many code examples to generate random number then pick this frame based on the generated random number. My problem is that the frames will jump all over the place because (I think) my code is on frame 1 and is being executed over and over causing it to gotoAndPlay different frames in a loop. I just have 5 images that cycle on a timer in action script but would like the initial starting image not to always be image #1(located at frame #1)[code]

how can i make all mcs (a bunch of them) inside another mc, to gotoAndPlay in a random frame without having to adress each one of them by theyr instance names?
wild guess: a for loop?

I have an app I'm creating with Flash CS5.5 with 42 different short stories in it. It has 2 scenes. Scene 1 is the opening and contents menu to access the stories. Scene 2 contains the 42 stories.In scene one, I have a button that I want to be able to pick a random story so it would need to pick a random frame between 1 and 42 in scene 2. I have seen some code in here that will pick a random frame when you open the program, but I don't know how to tie it to a button or pick a random frame in another scene.

Does anyone know what the problem could be? I also have some stop actions at the end of each scene. For buttons I'm using On release, gotoAndPlay "Scene, frame number"

I want to have an animated button that go's to the next scene and plays. This is the code I have on the button inside the movie clip:
ActionScript Code:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("rollover");
} on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("rollout");
} on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", 1);
}
For some reason this doesn't work? Is the problem that the code on the button is within a movie clip?

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
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label frameThree not found in scene Scene 1. at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop() at New_Inro_fla::MainGuy_1/frame146()[New_Inro_fla.MainGuy_1::frame146:2 ]

ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label nGallery_btn not found in scene Scene 1.

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"

What I would like to do is after someone clicks on the button, it should then jump to another scene's specific frame number. So for example when you press the "about" button, the playhead goes to the "about" scene to 25th frame. Same thing for each button
I've just started self-learning Flash, so am not very familiar with it. I tried to do a game e-card and there were some problems which i couldn't find an answer for them after hours googling: I'm using Flash CS5 AS3. So I'm trying to create a button that would lead to another scene, i named it "ok button" (instance - "ok_btn") and the scenes are just "scene 1" , "scene 2"
