I have sounds ( A-Z ) and when i press the A button i want the A sound to play , i have fixed everything . The button is pressed and everything works , except my sound! i tried just to have e sound in the frame and it worked .. How should i do ?
[Code]...
OK, say I have a button that does something, like go to the next frame, is there anyway to have it play a simple sound located in the library without looping?
View 8 RepliesI have a sound bite (~500ms) and want when a key is pressed and held the sound is played.However, what I appear to be getting is the sound triggered to play every time the key down event is triggered (not suprising & makes sense since key is held down). This creates what sounds like several copies of the sound being played at same time only shifted slightly. Very ugly sound btw.My thought is to have a way that even if key is continued to be held down the sound bite is looped but not overlapped.Tried several things such as using Event.Sound_Complete listener, tracking the position, transformation things, timers, etc without success.
View 2 RepliesI have an SWF that's 30MB. Sound files (music) make up 25MB, art and other things make up the remaining 5MB.
Would it be possible for me to load the 5MB of necessary art and other things first to allow the user to operate the app, then after that's all loaded and they are operating the app, load the remaining 25MB of sound files in the background?
UPDATE: Loading SWF (or other entities) externally is not an option.
Is it possible to create a button that when you press it and hold it, it will play a sound, and when you release it then stops the sound?

View 14 RepliesI'm trying to load sound dynamically into a clip and then play it randomly. The AS I came up with works great if the sound is embedded and I use the .attachSound() method instead of loadSound(). Now, when I load it dynamically and use the code below, the sound plays very fast and at a higher pitch.
Code:
var crows = new Sound(this);
crows.loadSound("Raven.mp3", false);
crows.setVolume(100);

I am loading small sounds dynamically with the loadSound command. These small sounds are activated with a rollover. see script below. This works ok. however. i want the first sound to keep playing while the rollovers load sound. a bit like playing the piano. This works ok when i import all the sounds into the library and place them on their very own button. however the size of the flash movie increases to 140k. whereas when i load them dynamically the size of the movie is 20k. obviously i want to load dynamically.
But with dynamic loading each sound stops when another sound is rolled over, so that there is only ever one sound playing at once. I need to load the sound into a different level or something, so that the first sound can keep going while the smaller, shorter sounds play over the top. this is my script below. The first sound loads when the movie starts. This is the one i want to keep playing. Then there are the smaller ones with rollovers. does this make any sense? there's actually 13 little sounds.

I have a AS file called medaigallery.as which i can load as a Class but i need to load it when a button is pressed, or alternatively load the class from a frame in the timeline.
At the moment the Class is loaded by just linking to it in the Class box in the Properties window, which just loads this AS file at runtime, but is there any way to do either of the above?
I have a button, that when pressed loads a movie - works fine. What I wish to know is if it's possible (and how) to nest or add a function so that another movie loads at the same time. I'm using MX.
The idea is that when the 'good movie' is loaded, another small movie will load beside the button to indicate the active section.
Sample of what I'm currently using to load the 'good movie" is below.
Code:
blackWhite.onPress = function () {
_global.sectionPath = "Section1/";
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("container", 1);
[Code]....
There are actually seven such buttons in the main movie. So, for each one I want to replicate the adding of my external active.swf file into another empty movie clip.
Now, the above code works and pulls up the animation. When I tried to added another function to the button, only the second function worked (i.e., I got the symbol for indicating active state, but not the image gallery I've made).
I find it hard to think of a way to load a specific part of my XML when I press a specific button. I'll try to explain this as best as I can:
I am working on an App in which you can chose a character from a big list. When you press lets say character A you get a popup with info about character A. There is a button in here that will popup the art related to this specific character and this art will be added in unique movieclips so I can use each movieClip in a for loop to create an infinite scroll. Now the problem is there are 80+ different characters (and increasing every 2 weeks) and each character has an average of 4 arts, so giving them unique classes and solving the infinite scroll this way would generate A LOT of code. So I started thinking lets use XML. how to load just or show just the images related to the character you pressed.
I was thinking dividing the XML up like this:
PHP Code:
//XML
<CHARACTERS>
<CHARACTER A="URL" />
[Code]....
But how can I determine, at the specific press of a button, to load the unique part of this XML?
Wow that was a lot of text I hope I kinda made myself clear, and if I didn't I'll add some drawings to try to be more clear
If I want to load dynamic text without having to press a button. I want it to load in the first frame of my movie automatically when it loads. What should I do? What I have so far on a button is :
on (press) {
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("home.txt");
loadText.onLoad = function() {
[code]....
but basically i have 100 buttons being generated and assigned names ( eh_1, eh_2, eh_3, ... ). On press they are controlling several functions but i would also like them to load a corresponding jpg into a blank movie clip. the jpgs are labeled... (1.jpg, 2.jpg ....)
Code:
var currentButton:Number = new Number();
for (var i:Number = 1; i<101; i++) {
_root["eh_"+i].id = i;

I used senoculars xml gallery tutorial (link) to create a gallery but i want to have different galleries so that when i press a button a different set of thumbs load how would i do that ?
View 1 RepliesI have a sound clip that I'm loading externally into my flash file. The code I'm using looks like this and is placed in the as layer on the first frame,
var mySound:Sound = new Sound();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var myTransform = new SoundTransform();
var lastPosition:Number = 0;
mySound.load(new URLRequest("introaudio.mp3"));

I have set the Progressive-Download video instead of Streaming-Video (because my webserver provider "aruba.it" doesn't offer streaming videos), in Flash CS4 Professional, and exported to Dreamweaver CS4. I have also inserted the HTML code in Dreamweaver CS4 to enable FullScreen Playback of Flash .flv Videos.Now I have a problem:
- When the webpage loads into Internet Explorer 7, it take much time to load all the videos at same time!
Thus I want this:
- I want that the videos start to load just when I press the Play button, individually, not at same time.- I don't not want that start the load immediately when the webpage opens in IE7. - I want that the videos start to load content in the same manner of YouTube videos, just when I press play.
How can I do? What is the HTML code that I should insert into DreamweaverCS4? I have seen this help page: [URL]
At Chapter "Public Methods" I have seen this "load" function:"Begins loading the FLV file and provides a shortcut for setting the autoPlay property to false and setting the source, totalTime, and isLive properties, if given..."

View 6 RepliesI've got a flash movie containing 6 individual SWF's. These contain a short clip, with some sound effects. Also, I got 1 additional SWF that calls for each SWF in numeric order.
Now, I'd like to have a theme song going on in all of these 6 SWF's, and it needs to be seperatly, so that the sound does not stop until my movie is done.
Actionscript for my movie is;
ActionScript Code:
//
var movie1:URLRequest=new URLRequest("1Intro.swf");
var movie2:URLRequest=new URLRequest("2Troldmand.swf");
var movie3:URLRequest=new URLRequest("3Superman.swf");

whats the deal? I get no compiler errors. i'm hitting option+Return on the mac to test the movie. I downloaded some one else's and it worked. i copied theirs into my project and it didn't work. i have a feeling its something to do with classes that i don't know about
