ActionScript 2.0 :: Random Movie Slideshow - So Close But Yet So Far?
Feb 2, 2005
I have a library of about 70 movie clips of company logos that fade in and fade out...I wanted to make a sort of 'random slideshow' of all the move clips, so I went ahead and copied the actionscript code for a timer that would (ideally) delay the time that it takes for the next clip to load.
Problem is, the timer starts up first thing rather than after a clip has played, and the clips then play at the same time.
The actionscript is on frame one of the Flash movie (there are about 70 clips, for the example I'm working on I'm just using 3 to start with):
stop();
function wait() {
for (i=25; i<=27 {
_root.attachMovie("my"+i+"_clip","new"+i+"clip", i);
clearInterval(myTimer);
[code]...

I need some tips, algorithms, code samples, whatever relative to building random shaped close smooth curves, that have no intersections, not many "close to intersect" parts. Pretty much like on the image attached. If there are any algorithms for the same task but allowing intersections - would be great to know too.

i am using a slideshow template that I purchased and I wanted to get the images to load randomly, I contacted the author but he wants me to pay him extra for this and I have no money left for this project.basically, I'm looking to add a line to this as2 file that would make the images load randomly without repeating and then start over when the cycle completes. I tried putting in an array but it caused all kinds of errors.

I am using a random slideshow on the homepage of my website. It worded perfect when I was testing it locally, but now that I've uploaded it to an external server which is a bit slower, and there is a delay between loading images. Here's the work in progress site: [url]... I know it has to do with the way the actionscript is written, and the order in which functions are carried out. I just cant seem to get it to function the way I would like it to. I would like it to immediately load the first image and display it, then while that first image is displayed I would like it to load the second image. Right now it waits until the first image finishes displaying to load the next image.

I have made a random image loader for a slideshow, but the preloader does not work for it (I grabed the preloader from a previous website I made) Is there a way to preload the images or the slideshow and/or have the next image pre-load while the current image is playing. I have attached a zip file of the random image loader

I've created a flash slideshow with a fade-in fade-out effect that pulls a random image from a file containing a bunch of images from an XML file.Now what I'm trying to do is create some type of array that would generate those random images but maybe only 10 or so and just play those 10 images so that there aren't any duplicates one after another from pulling a random image from the file every time.

I have an XML slideshow displaying random images.
It works but sometimes duplicates the same images or displys the same image way more than the others...
Is there an action I can call so ALL my images play once in random order, before they get to be displayed for a 2nd time?[code]...

I was wondering how would i go about making a simple application that can be run on a website that can:
-show a opening page that will stay for 5 seconds (for advertisments)
-show random pictures (well they will only be text)
-can change slide by clicking on screen.

Testing locally works fine but as soon as its on a server - published live - the images load random. It loads fine when you publish in flash.
Here is the code and below is the file she sent me.
Code: Select allthis._lockroot = true;
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var myShowXML = new XML();

I was using Emre Biberoglu's excellent slideshow as a base for a slideshow. Worked absolutely great, until my client asked for the slideshow to display the images in random order.
[URL]
I tried modifying the values that define the current image to something like: (Math.floor(Math.random() * nodeCount); to generate a random number as it is a common technique which worked well for me in the past.The code is pretty clean, but for some reason, every attempt I made, the image number displayed doesn't match the image shown.

im working on an xml based slideshow. Random images loading (only ones and no repeated image) and fade in-out effect. That�s working fine, but the problem is that when animation starts it does it on white screen and then fades in to the first image. How can i keep my slideshow working the same way but starting with the first image already on stage (without fade in)? My Code:
code: import fl.transitions.Tween; import fl.transitions.easing.*; import fl.transitions.TweenEvent; import com.greensock.*; import com.greensock.easing.*; var my_speed:Number; var my_total:Number; var my_images:XMLList; var my_loaders_array:Array=[]; var my_labels_array:Array=[]; var my_success_counter:Number=0; var my_playback_counter:Number=0; var my_slideshow:Sprite = new Sprite(); var[code]..........

I am creating a touch screen interactive for a museum. I have a AS2 button opening a AS3 swf file popup (no html). This AS3 file shows a movie.How can I get the pop-up to close down when the move has finished without the use of a button.I have a button option too.The movie is an FLVPlayback obviously linked fro an FLV file. (so only 1 frame is showing)This is the only thing I can't work out. It's the last thing on the project.

I am doing a 5 frame file that on frame 1 has 4 buttons and the following code
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(4);
} on (release) {
loadMovieNum("jigsaw.swf", 1);
}
I am happy with this as it jumps to frame 4 and loads the movie jigsaw that I done from a tutorial. The problem is I cant get it to close, I have got a button on page 4 that has the gotoAndStop(1) but it just goes to frame 1 (that's the good bit) but the jigsaw is now on frame 1 as well and I dont know how to close it.
I tried
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(1);
} on (release){
unloadMovieNum("jigsaw.swf", 1);
}
but it does nothing not even go to frame 1
