View 11 RepliesWhen my Flash website loads, it freezes halfway through the initial animation for 2-3 seconds and then continues. Am thinking it is one of the scripts in index.html and have tried all sorts of ways to correct it -[code]...
View 2 RepliesI have several buttons wich loads movies into a movieclip. When you hit once, it takes 1,5 seconds when the flashy makeup is final and the content is visible.When i hit a button 2-times the website turns into a epilepsic repeated load.
Check the code:
/* a node in the tree has been selected */
treeListener.change = function (evt:Object) {[code].....
I want to freeze my animation totally during processing, so that:
1: click 2: processing, takes 1.5 second (button is disabled) 3, after 1.5 second: finished (button is enabled)
Mac, Flash CS3. How do I make a progressive downloaded flv-video freeze at the last frame instead of jumping back to the first frame again when the video is finished?
View 1 RepliesI've set up my custom Flash video player and am almost there but would like some final touches and advice on how to do that. How do I get a freeze frame to appear instead of the buffer bar when the clip ends?Here is my code:

nc.connect(null);

I found this as on youtube it it works but is there any way to make it freeze on a certain frame?i only started flash 3 days ago.[code]
View 3 RepliesI have a Sprite that will do nothing more than move from the left side of the screen to the right side (think of a truck in Frogger!).I trigger that tween randomly, so it will get called multiple times. The strange thing happening is that when I do it like this:
Code:
var fahren:Tween = new Tween(truck,'x',None.easeNone,-50,600,50);
it tends to get to a point where it just freezes and nothing is happening anymore (although the rest of the app is still running).When I tell the tween to use seconds instead:
Code:
var fahren:Tween = new Tween(truck,'x',None.easeNone,-50,600,2,true);
it will work perfectly forever!
My objective is to paste together several ( a lot, actually ) armature animations, each in a separate symbol.I have no idea how to do it, armature layers are a bit... strange. So i see only one solution: convert it to a regular layer.
View 1 Repliesso I have a looping animation that is several frames long. Inside the animation is a button, when pressed I want to go to another part of the timeline, where another animation is waiting. Simple, I got that working no problem. But... I need the first animation to go to the last frame in the loop before starting the next animation. The way I have it now makes an ugly cut, and the transition between animations isn't seamless.

i'm very new at flash and finally ended all the work i wanted to do here. now i just need to had the actions so it will run properly. basically i just need it to stop in each frame and run the animation of the movie clip on that frame. if it's i can put the project here so you can see what and were i need to had the actions.

I am making a frame by frame animation, where I draw a character, make a new frame and use the onion skin to slightly move my character. Is there a way to make a certain part faster than others? I made a character prepare to kick someone, but since i was doing it frame by frame it looks slow. So instead of taking out frames and making it look choppy, how do I make a certain part faster or increase its FPS? I tried making a new scene and changing its FPS, but that still changes the overall FPS.
View 6 RepliesI have an problem whereby I have created a Frame by Frame dancing human figure and now I want to move it across the screen as well as scale it using a Tween.
I have spent quite some time slightly adjusting the upper arms, forearms, hands, legs etc and creating a new keyframe for each movement. All the movements are all in one layer... ie the forearm doesn't have it's own layer etc. I am running the animation at 24fps so there is quite bit going on.
I now realise that I should have created a symbol/movie clip from the first image I created and then scaled and moved the image first before animating it's limbs but I only realized that after hours of work and I would hate to start all over again.
So basically what I have is a dancing human figure in the one spot moving it's arms and legs and I want it to move across the screen and become larger by scaling it using a Tween. I could of course re-edit each keyframe by slightly scaling and the slightly moving the figure but that will take quite some time to get right as there will be a fair bit of trial and error doing it that way.
I have a project that involves flash animation- almost movie like. I need some advice on how to do flash animation. I think I'll create the graphics in illustrator. Basically, the storyline is this:
- guy leaves house and walks to car
-starts engine, puts on shades and speeds off
-scenes of downtown chicago (nightlife)
-view license plate
What is the best way to do this? create graphics in illustrator for frame by frame? Should I use after effects? The client doesn't have a high budget so video is out of the question.
I created a frame by frame animation using the default elapsed time. There are 41 frames, and it is completed in 1.7 seconds. I would like the whole sequence to complete instead within 30 seconds. How can I change the timing? I am using Adobe Flash CS4 Professional (v. 10.0.2).
View 1 RepliesI am developing a game for the Android platform using flash cs5 and AS3.
problem: the game will run at 24-29 fps until I call a movieClip that has frame by frame animation, then it will drop to 10-14 FPS. It looks perfect on my PC and does not lose frames until I move it to my Evo for testing. I have tested on an Epic also and I do not lose Frames which leads me to believe that it is the pixil population in the evo that is causing the problem but I have tried everything I can think of to not make it so intense on the graphics but same results every time.
It's a 20 frame animation and my FPS in flash is set to 24
What I have tried:
png's on each frame |
gif's on each frame |

I know I can export a simple tweened animation using "Copy Motion as Actionscript 3.0" and passing the resultant XML to an Animator object. But what I'd like to do is export a frame-by-frame animation and use that in my code.
As for why I want to do this, I'm trying to simulate a post-it being ripped off of a white board. Doing it and getting it to look natural using just code is going to be difficult, so I was thinking of having a designer at my company do a frame-by-frame animation of it and then using that.
I have been using a template from the Adobe Flash Professional CS5 from Media PlaybackSimple Photo Album.I added 15 frames and and used the built in Action and Playback buttons (3 buttons. What i want ot do is make it look like the Controller as seen below.I would like the movie to be able to be controlled frame by frame, go to the beginning etc. just like the controller. I am having a hard time understanding what to do. I have added buttons but when i do it flips out and scrolls through the frame by frame without stopping.
View 4 RepliesI created an animated logo in Flash 8 that is 129 frames long, i want an animation to repeat from frame 36 to frame 129 for four times and then go back to frame 1 and play again. I inserted "gotoAndPlay(36);" on the last frame of the animation but that will play the animation in loop from fframe 36 to 129, i want to play it for 4 times only
View 3 Replieshandling of frame-by-frame bitmap animations?I'm putting together an app with an animated character that stands on screen and moves around doing animations. Each animation (Talking, Dancing, Jumping, etc) is an individual Movie Clip made up of around 50+ PNGs in sequence. I'm using CS3 to create the clips, and export them as SWCs for use in Flex.
The problem is memory usage. It seems that Flash will place the entire movieclip into memory , and when we are talking 50 frames, 256w x 256h, 24-bit color, 8-bit alpha, that's a lot of memory (so (256*256)*4 = 250k each frame * 50 frames = ~13 megs of memory for each clip). Couple that with the fact that Garbage Collection doesn't seem to happen very often, and this simple little app takes can take up 300megs+ of memory.
I have wondered if I can have an animation play on just the first Frame using ActionScript 3.0?? Can I call a certain frame inside an animated movie clip, with ActionScript3.0?
View 2 RepliesI'm new to flash, knowing only a couple of commands such as stop(); and gotoAndPlay.
I'm creating a UI menu for the beginning of a flash project. On a few layers, I have objects and buttons while the "stop();" command is applied to the frame to keep them on the screen as a Title screen or menu-like idea.
My problem is that I would like a animation, or a movie clip, or something that is looping in the background for a more detailed menu screen.. However, I can't figure out how to run the animation while the current frame is stopped.
I want to use the same flash file on multiple pages on my website, but on some pages, I don't want the first two scenes to play-- they are introductions & a preloader, and I figure this would be smart to use the same file if the logo is already in the viewer's cache. I have my animation set to gotoAndplay a frame after the introduction, so I want to start it after the intro on other pages.How do I embed an animation to start at a different frame than Frame 1?

View 2 RepliesI have button1_btn on a frame in the beginning of this animation, and on that frame I script it:
button1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showimage1);
function showimage1(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("image1");
}
I also have other buttons that eventually take a different frame where that button isn't on.So I add it to the stage in that frame and assume it will gotoAndPlay("image1") again when clicked, but when I test the movie, and click it on the later frame, nothing happens.I tried maybe adding the original script to that frame as well, but then I test and it says I have duplicated script and doesn't work.Why does the original script work for that button, no matter where and when it shows up?It's the same button essentially, no?
When i try to test a simple animated mask using test movie command, it looks like my animation stops on frame 1.

View 6 Repliesi have a clock, and a background the background contains an animated ocean (100 frames) there are four sky themes which change on the appropriate hour to night-time, morning, sunset, sunrise (could just use alpha to show another here although maybe processor intensive)
ok so the ocean could animate on its own and only the sky would need to change, that would be the easy part
but when it gets to night-time the ocean needs to jump to the night-time version of itself so if the user presses the hour button, and the ocean is on daytime at frame 80, how would i say play night version at frame 81 so that the ocean doesnt skip animation??
