ActionScript 2.0 :: Movie Clips Stay On Keyframes Even When On A Different Keyframe

Oct 28, 2011

The title may sound confusing, but let me explain. I have a photo gallery on two different pages. Whenever you go to the photo gallery, either page, I have it setup so that when you rollOver a picture, it swaps the depth of the picture so that they show up in front of everything else on the page and enlarges the picture. However, let's just say you rollOver one of the images, and then you click the next page on the photo gallery, or the home page or whatever, that movieclip still stays on the page. It's as if Flash is disregarding keyframes or the timeline or something. It's weird.

I thought that even if this happened, it would be ok, and I could send that picture behind everything else so I made this code:

on (rollOut) {
this.swapDepths(-2000);
}

ActionScript 2.0 :: Function For _root - Control A Movie Clips Current Frame By Another Movie Clips?

Sep 13, 2009

I'd like to control a movie clips current frame by another movie clips action script.I realise the following controls the outside (root) frame time line:

on(release){
_root.gotoAndStop(1);
}

but I'm not sure how to apply that to my other movie clip. I'm guessing it would be something like this:

on(release){
_*movie_clip_name*.gotoAndStop(1);
}

Professional :: Movie Does Not Stop On KeyFrames

Aug 17, 2010

I am creating a very simple file with 4 single frame scenes in Flash CS3. These are linked by simple arrow buttons. However, the movie doesn't stop on the keyframes even though I have put a stop script in each of the four. There is no other script involved so far. The stop script appears on the top of the actions panel on the actions layer. Please see JPEG screenshot attached. [URL].

ActionScript 3.0 :: Does Not Respect Modified Keyframes Of The Same Movie?

Nov 19, 2008

mc1 is placed on the stage. There are several key framesinside of it. On the first key frame is mc2. The subsequent keyframes have copies of mc2 which have been tweaked individually byway of transform tool etc. Run the play head manually and you sell the frames like you meant.But when the movie is tested only the original mc2 (as on keyframe 1) shows up on all the frames. And it is evident that thescript is moving the playhead as images placed in key frames onanother layer in mc1 appear correctly. I have heard its called 'puppeting' but my question remains:

Convert Animation Keyframes To Movie Clip?

Oct 26, 2009

I have an animated item on the main stage that was imported as a swf but it needed to be edited to fit the stage.  I successfully edited each frame and the whole movie is running exactly as I'd pictured it.  However, I was reading somewhere that to optimize the movie, keyframes and bitmaps and graphics take up more space and that it would be better to convert an animation to a movie clip.  I had to edit each frame of my swf, so right now it's in 15 different key frames  When I imported them, Flash turned each frame into a bitmap and then when I edited them for size they became graphics attached to those bitmaps, each as its own keyframe.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash8 - Attaching Movie Clips To Already Attached Movie Clips?

Jun 5, 2011

As most of you don't know, I've been creating an rpg game. And, after several tries of art making, etc, I have finally moved back into coding the game. And now, I'm stuck on the equipment system idea. At first, I thought I would just place a bunch of goToAndStop's for each movie clip to go to a frame that has that certain armor piece. This was my first idea for an equipment system. However, after doing some research, and realizing how much lines of code could be saved, I started looking into simply adding and removing movie clips from the character as my new equipment system idea. Now.... on to the problem.

Basic want/ overall achievement wanted: Create an equipment system, which will basically attach movie clips (items) onto characters, which themselves will already be attached movie clips on the stage.

Problem: What is the exact code to do this? And Is there a better way to do this for an equipment system (a less laggy or more efficient way perhaps that I'm not seeing; Check the code below to get a better idea of what I'm talking about)?

Part of the code (or basic idea of code; see comments for extra details

code:
//Don't worry I have an OnEnterFrame function here;
//attachedObj= the character; figure= the MC name of the character;
attachedObj = attachMovie("figure", "figure"+1, 1);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Plays One Keyframe Then Switches To 2nd Keyframe When Date Changes?

Mar 15, 2012

I have a simple flash that has 2 layers 2 images. one image is on the first frame and the other image is on the second keyframe. Actionscript starts on 1st keyframe.  What I have it doing is loading frame one stop() reads the actionscript checks the date if the date is met it goes and stops on frame 2 and plays other image:
 
Everytime the flash refreshes it plays frame one then jumps to frame 2 if the date is met.  How do I avoid playing frame one if the date is met what it's doing is playing the first image before the date change and a split second after it plays frame 2.  (you see a hiccup)
 
i need the flash to "preload, check the actionscript before it loads if the date is met automataclly go to frame 2 avoiding frame one all together.

actionscript used on frame one:

stop();
var year:Number = 2012;
var month:Number = 3;
var day:Number = 22;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Starting And Stopping Multiple Movieclips On Different Keyframes Of Main Movie

Jun 17, 2009

I have multiple movie clips on 4 labeled frames of my movie. The keyframes are as follows : People, Place, Portfolio, Possibilities

The buttons to go to each of these keyframes work, although because I have a movie (different for each keyframe) I cannot get the previous movie's audio to stop when I click to another keyframe.

Also, I cannot get the other movie to work once I am on the next page.

The movieclips are named- Btn2 -which is the movieclip that plays once clicked on the homepage. Btn3- which is the movieclip that is supposed to play once clicked (on the people page).

To see what I'm talking about- visit: [URL]

give it some time to load- then click the doorbell- let the movie play for a little bit then click on people...the door closes, but the sound continues.

Here's the actionscript.

ActionScript Code:
stop();
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
//---people button timeline change---//

ActionScript 3.0 :: Determine The Last Keyframe/if A Frame Is A Keyframe?

Mar 20, 2007

i'm making a game and to score some extra performance im rendering every frame of every entity into an array of bitmapdata's the first time the frame is seen, and it works well, but its wasting alot of memory because we have alot of animations, and most of them are double framed at least, so more than half of the bitmaps could be ignored if there was a way to determine if a frame is a keyframe or not

ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating / Using Movie Clips Outside Of Movie Clips

Aug 18, 2005

Here's what I'm trying to do (in example form): I have a movie clip called "dude". Dude is animated to walk around, then drop a cigar (all inside the movie clip). But the problem is, dude moves, so if you try and move dude as the cigar is dropping, the cigar moves with him. So what I want to do is create a new movie clip instance called "cigar" OUTSIDE of the movie clip dude right as he's dropping it, so that you can move him without moving the cigar. Get it? I've attached another helpful animation to explain.

What I have right now is, on the 13th frame of dude, a few lines of code that create and place an instance of cigar. In that frame I also have an invisible instance of cigar for me to duplicate. Inside of the cigar movie clip is the animation that makes it fall to the ground. I need to change that code so that the instance of cigar is created outside of the movie clip dude. Here's the code I have now (inside of dude, on frame 13):

Inside one _root movie there are multiple sub movies; each with a different movieclip labels (each movie clip is named with unique labels ie. north, south, east, west, and What I need to do is be able to STOP all these sub movie clips with one stop, and in turn PLAY these same movie clip with a second action.

The only way I know how to stop all these sub movie clips is to target each and every one individually.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Movie Stay On Screen

Sep 8, 2009

What I am trying to explain/do is to take a movie and not only have it follow a guided layer, but also to have it not dissapear.So for example, I have sucessfully made a movie move around a path as I broke some letters in to symbols and created a guided layer out of them.However I don't want the move to keep dissapearing and initializing as it transverses the path.To better explain this, please check out the online example: UrL...Now instead of holding down the mouse button and having the movie of hearts just keep compounding wherever the key_pressed mouse goes to, Imagine the hearts coming to screen as the movie goes through the guided layer so as to spell out a word. Here is the minimum that I think I need and I have edited it below and tried change the "mouseX" and "mouseY" to something such as flashmo_group.X and flashmo_group.Y but the resulting effect does not follow the path.[code]

ActionScript 2.0 :: Empty Movie Clips And Duplicating Clips

Jul 19, 2006

I've been trying to reproduce an animation effect I've seen on the Armani website, but I'm stuck trying to duplicate an empty movie clip with image loaded into it. The duplicates exist and I can move them, but they are invisible. Since the duplicates reside on depths above the intitial clip I'm confused about why they are invisible. The duplicates are scripted to follow behind the initial clip - each offset by 30 pixels (though I don't have that working perfectly).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Making A Movie Clip Play Beyond Keyframe?

Feb 4, 2010

I have a movie clip that is about 30 frames long. I've placed an instance of it on the main timeline and it follows a motion path. My motion path ends after about 20 frames. At this time, I've inserted a keyframe which is preventing my movie clip from playing the remaining 10 frames.
 
I tried adding an ActionScript layer where the last keyframe is and it reads:
instance.gotoAndPlay (20)
 
Doesn't seem to work. Just a note that this is around frame 292 of the main timeline. Also note, a new keyframe begins on another layer with a different movie clip.
