Is there anyway that I can make this script so my MC moves in a curling motion?
PHP Code:
// Gives them vars
onClipEvent (load) {
this._x = 275;
this._y = 200;
this._xscale = 0;
this._yscale = 0;
[Code] .....
This script makes a spot move from the center out and scales a little. I want same movement but with a curling motion or a slight curve...
In Flash CS5, after you've inserted a keyframe in a motion tween, how do you move that keyframe to another frame?
View 3 RepliesI'm just learning the software and haven't been able to figure this out. I'm trying to create an historic timeline for our company and am using 20 jpg images, which I placed on separate layers and then converted each jpg to a symbol and motion tweened to go across the screen. The problem is that there is a gap between the frames when they play as a movie and I don't know how to get rid of that so that they flow continuously across the screen from left to right seamlessly.
View 5 RepliesHow do I move a graphic symbol along a motion guide dynamically. The guide is on a lyer of an mc residing on the _root. The graphic symbol is just below on another layer. The effect is to have the graphic symbol (a ball) appear to move randomly from the start of the motion guide a random distance along the motion guide and then change directions randomly. So the symbol would move a random number of points in one direction along the path then change direction and move a random number of points in the other direction while never actually leaving the stage.
The motion guide is NOT to be removed or drawn dynamically as it is the exact shape of the landscape in an image I use in the background of the overall animation so either the timeline needs to be manipulated for that mc or the symbol that is moving along the motion guide needs to be directed along the path dynamically.I tried the following code which I placed in the first frame of an action layer of the mc (mc resides _root) just above motion guide layer and it did not solve
_root.dot_ball_main_mc.onEnterFrame = function () {
var myVar:Number = Math.random()*(1-30)+30;
if (_root.dot_ball_main_mc._currentframe == myVar){

I have a horizontal motion tween that is juddering as it moves across the page - it's text and very noticeable although I can't seem to find a resolution to make it move smoothly...
View 2 RepliesI have created a motion tween to fade in a symbol on the stage. I have set a there is a diamond keyframe marker at the point where the alpha of the symbol goes to 100%. I want to be able to drag that marker to a later point on the motion tween span (not sure if I have my terminology right here) but I find that I cannot -- I have to delete the keyframe and recreate it at the point where I want it.
View 1 RepliesI feel like this should be pretty straightforward, but I can't figure out a way to easily move a single keyframe within a motion tween to adjust timing. I can't even figure out how to delete a single keyframe, for that matter. Everything I try ends up deleting all the keyframes within the tween or the entire tween.
View 2 RepliesHow to create motion blur which would be realistic at an angle? Applying simple blur filter looks fine if an object is moving vertically or horizontally but if its moving at an angle, its no good...
View 4 RepliesI need to have a MovieClip/Sprite move along a path (which will likely be a Shape object) which is drawn dynamically and is going to be segments of straight-lines that bounces off the walls/edges of the stage. I now that Flash CS4 itself allows tween animation along a path, but I haven't been able to find an example of doing similar things in code. Most of the examples I see just deal with the x/y values directly. Is there no way to animate a MovieClip along an existing path object?
View 2 RepliesThere is a movie clip "card" created dynamically through the code. I have a class, and I instanced it and add it to the stage. I need to move the movie clip on the button click, so I created a motion tween and export it to the code. Then I wrote a function and asign it to the button through the event listener. But the movie clip doesn't move. The event fires, but nothing happens.
Code examples:
1. Instance of a movie clip
var card:MovieClip = new Panic();
card.x=456.20;
card.y=77.30;
card.width=285;
card.height=355;
card.n = "IME";

I'm trying to move an object along circlular motion guide dynamically using two buttons -- a left button, when pressed down, will move the object counter clockwise, and the right button clockwise.
View 2 Repliesi'm using the an actionscript for random movement that i found here... [URL] but my problem is that i need the object to flip horizontally depending on the direction it is moving... the object that is moving around is a bug, and i need it to face left if it's moving left or face right if it's moving right.
View 1 RepliesI've just started working with Flash CS4.I'm evaluating the trial version and I think I will buy the CS5 version as soon it will be published.Now, I've got some troubles with MovieClip animations. I'm going to create a slide show and so I've created a package containing some classes used to load images from XML source then adding them into dynamically generated MovieClips.In few words, I load an image from an external source and then create a movieclip via AS3 which contains this image. I want move this MovieClip using AS3. I'm using the Motion class and the AnimatorFactory class. From the animation class I can move the MovieClip via the .x property so I'm sure the class can see the movieclip on the stage, but the animation created using the Motion class does not work.[code] mySlideInstance is the handler of the MovieClip visible on stage and it's, obvioulsy, not null. I've checked using trace.I've got no errors in debug, simply the MovieClip does not move.I don't understand where is the problem. Do I have to modify some properties of the MovieClip? It's created dynamically via AS3 so, maybe, there are some default settings that I don't know which can disable the animation control.The stage is empty on project. Everything is created via AS3.
View 7 Repliesthere is something i just dont get regarding motion with multiple movieclips (from a for loop). I have tried many different approaches, and every time there is either all the clips move in the same direction, other times they only move one direction, other times when i get individual motion for each object they dont move smooth, and seems more too move very slowly across the scene but rapidly back and forth in a small area. I dont have any specific code to show, but does anyone have tips or a place to direct me, cause i dont understand the logic of it, however i want to understand.
View 2 RepliesI know how to move movieclips from one spot to another with a click of a button. I want to go further. After a few seconds, that movieclip will move again to another spot. So, with one click, my movieclip will move to one spot, and then after a few seconds will move to another spot.
View 6 RepliesI have this game where a movieclip moves towards the mouse point by finding the difference and dividing by its "speed". This isn't very good though because different users will have different cursor speeds. What I really need is a method that finds the angle between the two points then uses that angle and a "speed" to calculate the next position of the moving movieclip.Here's something along the lines of what I am looking for but it doesn't quite work?The function runs and everything. All that works, it's just the maths that isn't right.Something needs changing with the maths.
ActionScript Code:
function moveCircle(e:Event):void
{
[code]......
why these two movieclips are moving at different speeds? I would like them to be moving at the same speed (while increasing xspeed every second).
actionscript 2, flash mx.
Code:
var xspeed = 1;
countDown = function () {

I'm currently making a game in which movie clips move across the screen and you have to shoot at them to make them disappear and gain points but I am having problems with the code. I have been able to get the movie clips to disappear but when instead of points appearing in the Dynamic text box, i get the letters 'NaN'.
This is the code I am using at the moment:
this.onRelease = function():Void {
this.unloadMovie();
_root.panda++;
};
(panda is the var name of the dynamic text box).
I have a difficult question and I have searched all over but cant find a solution.I have 3 movieclips:a) circle, filled in blue, black outlineb) circle, half filled in blue, black outlinec) circle, no fill, black outlineI have one instance of a movieclip moving randomly about the stage and want it to fade between a) b) and c) (based on a user defined input array eg circleArray[a, b, b, a, c, b, a] - if that makes sense?)The only way I am thinking is to have a movieclip that contains each of the 3 movieclips and then fades each to alpha 0 with a black outline at the bottom layer. And then referencing each faded movieclip with a label?
View 2 RepliesI'm making an image gallery and I want to have a bunch of thumbnails on the bottom of the screen that smoothly slide from side to side when the mouse moves.
I'm working with a custom class for the container (Tiles) and a custom class for the thumbnails (ImageIcon).
I have a ComboBox which allows users to to choose a gallery. When the user chooses a gallery, the following code is run and the thumbnails should reload. The problem here is that the icons appear on top of each other instead of side by side, also switching categories should remove the old one (see the first for loop), but it does not. Also, the Icons are not animating properly. The animation code is below as well. Right now, only one of the icons will move. The icons should move in order from side to side, stopping when the last few icons hit the edge of the screen, so that they don't get "lost" somewhere off to the side.
Gallery Loader Code:
public function loadCategory(xml:XML = null){
if(xml != null){
dp = new DataProvider(xml);
[Code]....
Click on a thumbnail and the corresponding image is preloaded BEFORE scaling and moving smoothly from the thumbnail position to a target position. (the thumbnail is actually the container for the loaded image, and therefore also moves to the target) I have got everything to work, except that the thumbnail moves whilst the image is still loading. This problem defeats the purpose of the gallery, and I'm starting to get blurry vision now!
I hope I have made everything clear, but since this is quite difficult to explain, I have attached the fla and images. *You will need to simulate download in flash for the current preloader to work. P.s. much of the script was (heavily) adapted from an fla I found somewhere, in which the images are arranged into a circle.
I'm making a screensaver where random characters in different positions and sizes walk/run across the screen. It seemed simple enough, and everything appears as they should. However, none of the Movieclips move forward on the stage. Here's the code on the first frame of the timeline, bolded lines are points of possible concern:
Code:
import flash.utils.*;
var timer:Timer=new Timer(5555);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, makeCharacter);
timer.start();
function makeCharacter(e:TimerEvent):void {
[Code] .....
And here's the code found in each movieclip:
var isOnStage:Boolean = true;
With no errors to go off of, I'm unsure how to proceed.
I making an animation for a preloader.In the animation, a 'line' draws a picuture.There are many lines,and I would like a mask to follow the lines so that it appears that they are being drawn.There are so many that it would be difficult to do this manually by moving a mask frame by frame with motion tweens.
View 5 RepliesI am using the following code to simulate a volume control bar filling on vol+ and unfilling on vol-. The dragger is a mask that causes the fill to appear and disappear when the mouse is pressed and dragged on the volume controller. It works well, but I would like to add a "switch" that moves at the same time and in the same location as the fill, but on top of it... I created the movieClip for the switch and tried all kinds of variations to the following code with its instance in the code, but cant seem to get it working... below is the code which works with just the mask filling / unfilling.
this.ratio = 0;dragger.onPress = function() {this.startDrag(true, 0, 0, line._width, 0);
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
ratio = Math.round(this._x*100/line._width);
_root.volume = ratio; }; };
dragger.onRelease = dragger.onRelease=stopDrag;
I want to move a mc with actionscript, along a path, and this movement to last about half or so of a second (just like tweening in the timeline with frames and all). How can i do this?
View 2 RepliesI want the final result to be a stage with a certain number of circle MC's moving around. I have made the circle MC, and added the AS so that it will start at a random point with a random color, then start moving around randomly. I want to make it so that In the beginning the document will duplicate the movie clip x amount of times, using a for loop. I want to then have all the new circles move around, and when two circles hit each other, they will dissappear, using the removeclip function. You can only use this on duplicated movieclips though, so how would i make all the circles duplicated? Is there a way to duplicate the original movieclip x amount of times then delete it? Or is there a way to remove the original after it is in a collision? Also I don't know how to do the collision detection. I am thinking of using a hittest, but would I just do it with a for loop? Is there a way so that if an MC hits any other MC?
