Is there a way to do file reading and writing in flash, like using actionscript 2.0? Just like how we do it in C++. Like read variables or a string from a .txt file and write in it.

I am a newbie to Flash. I am working on a template website with a deadline. I was able to change the text, remove items I did not need and add some additional text.....but I cannot get any of the links in either of the two top flash animations (the menu and the header) to work. I am using Flash CS4 (and Dreamweaver CS4). I have tried to add a link to the text, and in the AS. But then they do not seem to be working at all

I've placed this code on the root time line and it works great, however i need to print multiple MovieClips and I can't do that unless I place all of the MovieClips into one MovieClip and that's where this code stops working. This code keeps two seperate MovieClips on different layers "physically" connected while dragging one. But as soon as I place the two MovieClips into a new MovieClip "MainClip" -
_global.dragging = 0; someListener = new Object(); someListener.onMouseMove = function () { if (_global.dragging == 1) { diffx = _global.oriX_MC1 - _root.MC1._x; diffy = _global.oriY_MC1 - _root.MC1._y; _root.MC2._x = _global.oriX_MC2-diffx; _root.MC2._y =

I'm having problems with flash debugging on Mac OS. It crashed at various points regardless if I'm using the projector debugger or browser plugin (regardless of browser).
The only common denominator I see is that a method seemingly in the debugging code is causing a security sandbox violation with localhost, and then everything crashes.
P.S. Tried both 9 and 10 debuggers

Been beating my head against this for a while now and am starting to get down to the wire. I could really urgently use a hand here and would be so appreciative of any help you can offer.
I have a flash site, built in CS4 and AS2, with four textareas that are populated by a LoadVars that is pulling variables from a .txt file. These textareas are unreliable; about 50% of the time, the text displays just as I want, but about 50%, all I get is "undefined."

Has anyone got an angle on the interference that linkage can create when the "export in first frame" option is ticked? I am using attachSound and the sound object to load an mp3 but it is wreaking havoc with the preloader.If I uncheck the "export in first frame" box the sound does not seem to be instantiated. I believe that a way around this is to drag the sound onto the stage, but if you have 8 sounds for buttons for example, then you would have to create 8 sound layersMy preloader code is:
Code:
stop();
_root.preloaderGraphics._visible = false;

i have this ongoing problem that nobody seems to be able to help me with and i'm new to flash: i have an swf that is heavily audio based. all of the audio is triggered through actionscript, which means it is linked in the library and to be exported on first frame. this swf is then being loaded into a movie clip (content_mc) on the _root timeline. to my knowledge linked audio and components are actually loaded previous to first frame which means that audio loads first then preloader kicks in. and this defeats its purpose
How can i get a preloader to be general, working in a movieclip not the _root, while solving this audio/component loading problem?

I have a movie with three songs using the following code in frame 2:
Code:
song1 = new Sound();
song1.attachSound("song01", "song001", 1);
song2 = new Sound();
song2.attachSound("song02", "song002", 1);
[code]....
In frame 1 i have the following preloader script:
Code:
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
tb = this.getBytesTotal();
lb = this.getBytesLoaded();

and a text saying that the sound is loading. But when I play the movie i doesn't show the text.

I am working on a Flash site with background music whose file takes up about 80% of the loading process. The preloader is on the maintimeline.

my preloader music now fades out as the progress bar completes (the preloader code is below with the new code in bold). However, the new code added to the preloader seems to be affecting the sound in the main swf (the bigger swf that the preloader loads - 'lesson.swf' - which is a series of exercises).
The exercises in the main swf have sound cues for right and wrong answers. The first time the main swf loads, there is no sound at all in the exercises. If I navigate to another page of the website and come back to the exercises, the sound is normal. But if I navigate to another page and come back a third time, the sound is audible, but reduced in volume. If I keep switching off the page and back to the page, the sound varies from no sound to full sound to about half the full volume.
Is it possible that the code on frame 2 of the preloader, the code that sets the volume for the preloader music, is also applying to the main swf, so that whatever point the preloader progress bar gets to before the main swf loads becomes the volume of the main swf? The first time the preloader runs, the progress bar goes all the way from left to right and the sound volume fades to zero. Then the volume in the main swf is zero. The next time the preloader runs, it only gets a little way across before the exercises come up, and the sound in the exercises is full volume. Is there a way to fix this? I should add that if I comment out the new code that fades out the preloader music, all the sound works normally.

I am still a NooB to Flash, but did finally get to build a successful preloader (ahem). Now that I have that built, I was wondering if it is possible to loop a sound within the preloader 'scene'. This is what I have built for final production:cene 1: Diesel Startup SoundScene 2: Preloader movie, while main movie loads (w/ loopable diesel engine sound?)Scene 3: Sounds stop, plays 10 sec movie, then 'goes to url'Can anyone point me in a direction to see a preloader w/ looped sound, or a project that shows how to do this? Or, even better, show me how the code should look? I'm getting lost in code!

I've attached a sound to menu buttons using AS. The sound worked perfectly until I created a external preloader file to load the swf into a container_mc. Now no button sound? If I load the swf without the preloader file the sound works?
Code: Select all//set up sound instance
var btnGrpAudio:Sound = new Sound(mcSoundHolder);
btnGrpAudio.attachSound("beaming");
btnGrpAudio.setVolume(60);
menus[i].btn.onPress = function() {
btnGrpAudio.start(); ....

how to load audio and have it ready for after the preloader. I had it export for actionscript before but it loads before the preloader starts which really elimates much of the need for the preloader. I took off the linkage for it to load for frame 1. I search the forums and saw that a few people recommended following link

I've just made a preloader, which is a separate file that loads the main movie. When I try to compile the preloader, I get: ArgumentError: Error #2068: Invalid sound. All the code for the streaming sounds is contained in the main movie, and when I compile the main movie directly it finds all the sounds and plays them with no problem. It's only when I try to compile the preloader that I get the problem. Here's the relevant stuff from the main movie:

I just started working on a preloader screen that includes a preloader mask over a logo and a percentage dynamic text. I can get either or to work but not both at the same time. I notice that if I remove stop(); I can get the percentage to work but not the preloader image. With the stop(); embedded the image preloader works but the percentage doesn't.

I have a flash header that was never completed because the guy I hired took people's money and ran. So now I even wonder if what he said could work with my flash header is true or not. But, usually there is always a way to make it work.
I have a flash header that does two important things: 1) Upon entering the site, it loads and plays an audio track 2) Makes an animal noise when you hover over each animal menu item. (not sure if I'm able to give a link to it or not on here. If I able to and someone would like to see it let me know)
I want to know if my flash header can support the following additional functionality/changes:
1) Currently, it loads everytime a page is selected. I only want it to load the one time of entering the site because the audio gets annoying. Set a cookie maybe?
2) But, I do not want to turn the audio off completely because I still want the hover over each menu item sound.
3) Have a link on it to allow them to select to turn on / off the sound completely. It currently has that, but only for the current page. Once you select another page, the audio is back to on.
4) Lastlly, is there a way for it to detect that someone doesn't support flash and to display an html version of it? And can flash create a html version from my fla file?
I don't know much about flash (but am learning) so I'm not sure if I'll be able to do this myself. However, I want to find out if my flash header will even work this way before I invest the time learning it just for these changes. I know it will be pretty deep with script code, but I'm hoping I could find base code already available for these features. Not sure I can afford help now because of being laid off and two different scammers taking advantage of me. So I'm going to try to do myself and see if there is any suggestions/support on here that can help. I have Flash CS4.
