Flash :: Data Integration - Huluesque Video Integration

Jan 1, 2010

I have a video player that is currently using XML for its video library which is all fine and dandy. Now I have some developers working on a CMS type page in PHP that is going to hopefully pass some sort of information to my player that will let it know where the video is stored on our server. Is there a way to do this without using FMS? If so does anyone have ideas where I can find the information for it.

Data Integration :: XML Integration In Flash?

Nov 12, 2007

I'd like to create one empty Flash movie that is essentially a placeholder for externally loaded content I can change through XML. This content would just be able to randomly load 1 of 3 photos, with a button linking to a website within each of the photos on page load. If the user refreshes the page, a new photo with it's link would appear, but I understand since it's random,having 3 images the same image is likely to reappear, but I can always add additional photos and links.

Does anyone know of a tutorial that might lead me on the correct path to create this? I've found some tuts, but they've been different than my need.

Data Integration :: Flash And FTP Integration?

Feb 1, 2007

We want to be able to upload over 100+ files (if needed) to a server along with desc + keywords. I see that Flash 8 has the neccessary tools to handle file uploading, but my question is, can we have it act as a Stand alone FTP program so that we can utilize the fastest user upload, or will we be confined to the settings in the server INI settings.IE MAX_UPLOAD_TIME,MAX_FILESIZE, etc. If possible we want to avoid using the HTTP upload as it is noticeably slower. So if we can use flash to utilize user BW to upload, then that would be ideal.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Basic Flash/PHP Mailer?

Sep 22, 2010

I'm creating my first Flash website using AS3, and it's really basic. I would like to put in a contact form, which I have made. I've converted the 3 fields (name_field, email_field and message_field) to a symbol (movie) called 'form'. I've also got a send button, which is called send_btn.

I've set up the Action Script so that when the button is clicked, the user is taken to a confirmation-style page. All I want to do is called a php script (I'm comfortable with the code for that) called 'mailer.php' and send the three variables from the form to it before then loading the confirmation page.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Basic 3D Objects In Flash CS4

Aug 3, 2009

I've started using the 3D capabilities of Flash CS4 recently, particularly with respect to transforming the rotation and translation properties of movie clips with AS3. Which is fine for planar shapes, but I want to know how to create true 3D objects that I can similarly manipulate. The problem is, that although there are plenty of excellent tutorials covering simple changes in X, Y and Z properties, there seems to be a distinct lack of tutorials explaining in simple terms how to go about creating, say, a basic cube that can be displayed and transformed dynamically. Adobe's Flash CS4 files mention perspective projection and the Matrix3D object, but I don't find these section particularly clear. What I would like to do, for starters, is create a simple cube to which I can apply x, y and z axis transformations in the same way I can to movie clips.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash - Creating Preloaders For A Basic Page

Jan 14, 2010

I've had no problem creating preloaders for a basic page. I have a gallery with a preloader on the main page. It works fine. You can click thumbnails to see large photos that are on separate swf files. Everything worked fine when there were no preloaders on the individual swfs. But later I added preloaders to each individual swf file and now they do not load - just a big fat "0% Loaded" screen.

I'm doing something wrong. Perhaps the preloader should be contained within the loader that is displaying the individual swf files? Maybe the individual swfs do not need their own preloaders? I'm over my head in AS 3.0

Professional :: How To Do Simple Or Basic ActionScript On Adobe Flash CS4

May 6, 2011

I am doing my simple portfolio on Adobe Flash CS4. However when I am already looking just for the basic action scripting from the tutorial I can't determine which is the most accurate for the buttons. Here's my sample below: The texts that were listed below are my buttons such as About, Profile, Print Ads, Magazine, Logo, Print, Illustration, and Design Concept.

I've already convert it into symbol as BUTTON and now I am ready to put a basic action script to function and transfer into another scene. Example I want to function the Illustration and Print button into Illustration and Print scene how would I do the action script about it?

Here's the example of next scenes that could be clicked from the homepage
This is the ILLUSTRATION scene
This is the PRINT scene
How to do the action scripting by using the gotoAndPlay or anything else to function my portfolio.

Flash Video Basic Tutorial / Actionscript Version?

Feb 6, 2009

So I've been following URL... lovely "Flash Video Basics" tutorial and have encountered some issues which have eventually brought me to a brick wall.After seeing this error regularly:"1061: Call to a possibly undefined method attachVideo through a reference with static type flash. media: Video."I followed someone's advice to use attachNetStream() instead of attachVideo, which worked for a bit..Then I encountered an problem in which the audio would play, but no video. This led me to another forum which suggested that all the script I was trying to use (taken from the tutorial) was actually Actionscript 2.Changing my export to use Actionscript 2 instead of 3 fixed some problems but created others. I'm feeling like at this point I have to give up on the tutorial and just get friendly with a manual - but I'd love to be wrong about that. So I guess my question is: Does anyone know if these (very nicely done) tutorials were created with a version of Actionscript in mind?

Actionscript 3.0 :: Create A Basic Flash File With A Little Plane

I want to create a basic flash file with a little plane that is constantly flying. It never stops just keeps on moving. Now it would be fairly simple to do that but i want to be able to rotate the plane using the arrow keys. Once the plan is rotated I want the plane to fly in the direction of the rotation.

I could easily keep increasing the planes x value but that will make it fly only to the right I want to be able to make the plane fly freely.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Very Basic TileBased Collision Detection

Sep 4, 2010

So I've never dealt with collision detection since I mostly have just made simple web-designs, apps, and things that just don't make use of physics or anything like that. But today I decided to fiddle with it a little and was pretty excited when I started out just using a square to move around with keys and so I made some walls to figure out some collision stuff.

And basically, I can't move out of the wall once I collide. I know I could make it so when I collide the sprite backs off a few pixels, but it causes that jittery effect. So I was wondering is it possible to check for a collision before the block is animated?

This is all working fully, the problem arises if the user presses check answers again.This for some reason turns the ticks to crosses and the crosses to ticks and I have no idea why!?My code is as follows:

Flash :: Physics Required To Make A Basic Weighing Scale?

Dec 15, 2010

Okay so I need to make a basic activity (working Flash/as3) that simulates very basic weighing scales. All the objects that go on to the scales are the same weight.

If you imagine the classic weighing scales [URL]..we are dragging/dropping stuff on to the sides and animating accordingly.

I don't want anything fancy, just the maths required to affect the scales according to how many objects are on each side.

What I'm looking for is probably the angle of rotation of the horizontal arm. Any pointers?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Basic Flash Drawing Tool For An ELearning Project?

Jan 19, 2009

i'm a newbie using Flash CS4 and AS3. A retired social worker, I need to create a basic Flash drawing tool for an eLearning project to teach students how to draw their family tree.

The drawing tool would allow the students to add multiple circles and squares to symbolize their family members, plus text labels for names, ages, and they would need to be able to draw connecting lines between the circle and square symbols. Finally, in order to continue work on the drawing, over time, they would need to be able to save their drawings to be re-opened and edited (add new symbols, erase incorrect ones, etc.). Once the drawing is completed, they would need to be able to print a copy.

Being a newbie (but I have done some related scripting: JavaScripting-ECMA-262, HTML, CSS), I am not sure if this can be done in AS3, Flash CS4. But, if it is possible, I would like to learn how to create this.
