I am creating a rotating banner. I have a loader swf file which I unload and load with the the new swf file every 15 seconds using set interval. It's going ape shit though and I am not sure what is causing this.[code]...
View 1 RepliesI have drawn a circle with rays on the stage and made it a movie clip in Flash MX. I can make the MC rotate by creating a function. However, when I call the function in a setInterval, I want the MC to rotate with random speed. I did it this way but to no avail: setInterval(rotateme, random(2000)); I want the MC rotation to randomly speed up down to zero and slow down to 2000.
View 2 RepliesActually, I'm HTML-coder, so I've recently confronted by difficulties with Flash. Its making the text banner. Flash needs to get variables from the following 'vars.htm' file:
myVar01=the_first_textDDDsecond_textDDDand_surely_ the_third_text&myVar02=DDD&myVar03=3
Where 'myVar01' contains the text, 'myVar02' is the text delimiter's look and 'myVar03' is the showing delay of texts. In truth, I've never seen the ActionScript before.
So, what I've done regarding that all:
ActionScript Code:
var data_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
data_lv.load("vars.htm");
data_lv.onLoad = function() {
[Code] .....
The problem is, the 'trace' shows me correct array looping but in Flash I see there's only one passage through the 'texts' array. But I need the infinite looping in Flash movie, instead of one.
I ve got this flash rotate banner, which loads 3 external jpg and 3 external swf's and rotates them within time givem. The problem is that all files are loaded at the same time, so when it begin to display the other swf's are playing already in the background, then when it rotates the annimation is finished. I would like it to load the files but trigger the annimation only when it rotates and displays the current swf on screen.
I ve uploaded it, so you can check it.

and this is the Actionscript ive got on my main swf.

I am building a banner ad and I am using Flash CS4. I need it so when someone clicks the banner it takes them to the page in a new window. Its just a a simple URL and I keep getting syntax errors now and I dont know how to do this properly. I have tried these methods.

I am having some dificulty making a path for this enemy i'm trying to create... cause i want him to rotate + move, then stop, then shoot, then rotate back and move off screen... Its easier if you see it.. you can download the swf file in the zipped archive to demonstrate what i mean. I did it there with tweens. Anyway.. i tried and make it but i'm a little stuck on the stopping part... you can also see what i did in the fla file attatched...
View 1 Repliesi use as2 and i want to know how to use setInterval
Code:
var pistolshottime:Number = 1
var counter:Number = 0;
var interval:Number = setInterval(pistolshottimer(),1000);
var pistolshottimer : function(Void){
counter += 1;

pistolshottimer is the period between shots and i just want to know why this doesnt work it says "an identifier is expected after the ':'" and it says after pistolshottimer
how to use setInterval. I think this is what I need to use to do what I want to do, as shown in the ActionScript (2.0) I've pasted here:
bhold.buttonBlue.onPress = function() {
if (ohpNameRed._y == 0) {
MoveNameDn(ohpNameRed, 60, .3);
//i want a second or so delay before the following code is executed MoveNameUp(ohpNameBlue, 0, .4);
[code]....
Wondering if there's anyway this can be done? Or is there anyway you can return the time elapsed since the last function call?
Reason being that I'm using it in a project that really requires the option to pause the game. So I'd need to "pause" an interval when the game is paused and then resume it from where it was stopped when the game is resumed.
I'm in a project where I have to use setInterval to go to a certain frame after a period of time when hovering to some thing in my stage.
The code used is :
setInterval( function() { goToAndPlay(34); }, 100000;
stop();
The problem is that the counter is always engaged will not always go to the frame after exactly 10seconds, it will be random because it never stops counting.
Is there any way to clear the counter after each time I hover to the thing??

I am working in an image scroller. Now i need to add a new feature. ie, To pause the scrolling for a specified time after each image scrolled out from the stage. But I have implemented this using a setInterval and clearInterval. But there is an issue occuring in this case. When the image pauses, a gap is occuring between the last image and first image of the scroller. Also when the scrolling continues this gap is also increasing. When the first image scrolled out, it will be again appending with the images scroller. That means it's appending after the last image of the scroller. Thus first and last images comes next to each other. When the scroller pauses, the gap is occuring between the first and last images. Anybody have idea about this.
View 4 RepliesI have a flash 9 app that calls a php script that in turn pulls in some variables from txt files. The function within the flash file that calls the php script operates via a setInterval() function. For some reason, this works fine in Firefox and Safari, but in IE the swf fails to update the fugures unless i clear the cache and reload the page..rather than the setInterval() function doing so every 60sec...

I have an MC (my_mc) with a button inside (mybtn_btn). Now I make something like this:
ActionScript Code:

This doesn't work, of course. The bubble is removed, but not the interval. How the heck do I remove that interval?
i am trying to trigger a function after a certain delay, which is why i used setInterval. i can get the function to happen after a certain time, but clearInterval doesnt seem to work it always worked before, when i was not writing it in oop, is there something special with this function when it's used in oop?[code]

What I'm trying to achieve is that I'm planning to fetch data from an XML file in certain time sequences. For this I would need a simple function that has a growing variable. I tried to test this as a text field that would show my variable go from 0 to 2 with one second between each change - but I can't get it to work.

gotoHell = setInterval(gotoAndDie, 1000);
So how i can addEvent for that interval to show it on progress bar? users can know the internal progress..
