I wish to have only one onEnterFrame loop for my whole movie (made of many mc and layers), how do I set up this onEnterFrame and get all the other functions to use it. At present im using about 5 or so onEnterFrame events within the movie.
View 6 RepliesonEnterFrame=null, onEnterFrame=undefined & delete onEnterFrame....
Which one to use??? What are the performance considerations. If all my movieclips on-stage are running a MovieClip.prototype.onEnterFrame = function() {run initial stuff before setting onEnterFrame=null/undefined... }, will there be performance hits? It's sad that delete onEnterFrame doesn't work unless I delete the prototype enterFrame as well, which would make the clips reinitailise itself again once you declare the enterFrame prototype again (i need to do this since there's more movieclips that end up appearing on-stage, and they need to automatically initialises themselves the moment they appear).

View 9 Repliesi have this code that should get a face (eyes, shape, etc) in motion on Mouse Over. The thing is i dont know how to loop this onMouseOver code so it works like an onEnterFrame handler (while onMouseOver).Another way to put it: as long as the mouse stays over the Mclip i want the code to loop. How can i do this?Here is my code:
Code:
package{
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

i got this perlinnoise called function and movieclip.filter = [displacementMapFilter] inside a onEnterFrame and it's eating me at 100 percent. are there any substitutions for making it much less processor intensive? I'd like to show a picture rippling and i'd like to use perlinNoise. Is there a way i can pre-calculate the perlin noise values and then loop through it in an OnEnterFrame

any consise methods to restart a deleted onEnterFrame that has been deleted?
View 3 RepliesI have been digging around the AS 2 forum for some guidance on using the onEnterFrame function. It seems that in general, it is not a good idea to use a frame number (or numbers)for running tweens.I would like to use onEnterFrame (unless it would be a bad practice) to tween letters (the letters are movieclips).[code]I am attaching the movieclips to the stage at different levels.I have no frames set in the timeline (like a keyframe at 1, and a keyframe at 91).When this function runs it never gets out of frame 1.If I put keyframes on the timeline from 1 to 90, then it plays.Is there a way to not have to create a timeline in the editor with a 90 frame span??

I am using movieClipLoader to load external swfs via xml. I am trying to set it up to automatically play the next movie after the current swf is done. The problem is, after the current swf is done playing, the actionscript tries to load all the rest of the swfs in the xml file and not just the next one. So it ends up playing the last swf in the xml file. I added "delete this.onEnterFrame" but still not working.. see code below

I want my movie to loop. Would prefer an If/Else loop so that the movie plays a certain number of times then plays the opening of a screen then stops. This is a simple 4 screen ad I am doing for a school project. Can't get it to work. I tried containing my code in the proper loop syntax, didn't work. Then wrapping the loop in a function and calling that with a timer event, didn't work. My final solution was to call my whole movie in a timer event set to play once. Then calling the entire movie again in a second timer event set to play 20 times and set to start at an interval when the first movie ended. This did work but each time the movie plays thru function calls drop off making the movie degrade.
