View 5 RepliesI'm making a banner ad for work and have a part where I want to basically rain our logo for like 15 frames or so. I've started doing this manually but as you can imagine, it's a bit tedious and time consuming. I looked at Kirupa's tutorials on snow and continual motion but I'm wondering how I would go about scripting it so it does the following within mc_logorain (which is sitting on the root) on enter:
1. duplicates mc_logo many times, randomizing size.
2. Rains for a set amount of time or frames and unloads.
I think I understand the logic of what's supposed to happen, just not sure of the syntax. Would there be two loops? One for the duplicate/random size and one to say basically "while i < 100, keep duplicating and raining"?

They dynamically motion tween the movement to each lot. I am trying to achieve the same thing. At the moment I have a map with a similar capability, but mine "snaps" to the selected area, rather than animating to the selected area.My file can be viewed at

I'm in the process of developing a realtime video chat application where multiple users can send video streams simultanuously. The number of users receiving the streams can be very big, e.g. 10 broadcasters and 500 receivers, each receiver should get all streams.
I use RTMFP connections to an FMS and streams are published in P2P multicast groups by passing the groupspec to the NetStream constructor. Currently I'm having problems with audio/video synchronization and video stream 'jumps' (not continuous). From what I read on other threads, this is related to the fact that there is not enough upstream bandwidth for sending the streams. So my questions are:
How to calculate the required upstream bandwidth on every peer for the given example of 10 broadcasters and 500 receivers (is it 10*bandwidth of one stream)?What settings (on NetStream, Camera, Microphone etc.) should be used for best results and how to adapt them based on the number of broadcasters?
Attached is a fla that moves an image around in a hovering/floating effect. The instructions say to change the parameters to customize. I can't find the accelfactor variable to change this.

Is it possible to draw motion guide/path for a mouse position based movement?
For example if I have path the is like letter H. I would need to write many clauses/conditions for the borders of the movement. It would be a LOT easier if there would be some solution that makes the object always to stay on the defined path when moving..
I have this video chat(video, text and audio) program written in actionscript and using FMS as the media server, that I would like to test out with diff comps. I don't have enough webcams to go around and also not all have a built-in webcam. Is there anyway I can use some software to record the screen activity as a video and than stream it over? I am aware that there are softwares that can record the screen activity, but how do I stream it over after that, while still in my video chat applicaton?
View 4 RepliesHere's the thing, I'm making a flash game that uses some pixel techniques like copypixels, bitmapdata, etc.
Im planning to offer the game to FGL (Flash Game License) and I read that they doesn't not allow wmode, and many other portals do the same.
is my game taking advantage of wmode=gpu?.. how can I run my swf file and disable wmode for sure?, I just want to know if my game will run smothly without that wmode enabled.
I have to use Flash CS3, so I can't use the properties rotationX, roationY and rotationZ.I have a movieclip, that looks like this. It is now flat, no 3D rotation or shearing But what I want is that this movieclip has a rotationX, or that it is a bit in perspective like this: As I said, I can't use rotationX, so I have been playing around with Matrix. But I can not get it right.Here is how I try to do it
myMC.transform.matrix = new
Matrix(1,0.15,0.35, 1, 0, 0);
And this is the result get the matrix right, or is there another way?
I'm building a system that will record a user's experience in Flash (where they click and at what time it was). Is it possible to simulate a click? I would use this to replay the user's experience. If not, I guess I'll have to record what button object they clicked on and pass everything through the event handler.

View 1 RepliesI made a preloader for this movie: [URL]. But when I simulate a download, it goes straight from 0% to 100% and the bar goes from nothing to filling only half of the screen. I'm using Flash CS3. Here's the code for the Preloader.fla file:
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("movie.swf");
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var nPercent:Number;
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, preLoad);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, fileLoaded);
[Code] .....
The graphic for the preloader is made up of two parts. background_mc is the light blue background for the progress bar and bar_mc is the dark bar that's supposed to fill it up.
Currently, I have a handle on the basic elements of the game, like drawing cards and shuffling. However, I am lost on how to implement the functionalities unique to certain cards.To simplify things, I have a deck class and a card class. The card class includes variables like a card's name and type, and it gets their values by extracting them from a database. But say, if I'm trying to create a Base Set Charizard, how would I store and call his poke-power (read:ability), as it has effects beyond the normal rules of the game and needs its own code.

I don't know if I should have the initial movie clip on custom cursor or have it set to drag... but either way I don't know how to make the second clip the "reflection follow along.

View 2 RepliesI need to create a user interaction simulating the use of a spirit level showing that a rectangular object on the stage is level. It doesn't have to actually work like spirit level, basically just has to give the impression that it has worked like one.
Maybe make the bubble of the spirit level should move (become animated) when being dragged to the object, then settle (animation come to a stop) when dropped in place on top of the rectangular object? Although I am unsure of the code to go about this?
Code:
mc1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,Click);
mc1.buttonMode = true;
function Click(e:Event):void{
trace("btn clicked");
}
mc2.gotoAndStop(5); If i have an mc(mc2)that is scripted and is overlapping or on top of a btn(mc1) i have on stage, the portion of the btn that is covered by the mc on top cannot be detected by any event listener.It is "blocked" by the mc on top.
But mc2 doesnt have a MouseEvent added to it, so it is not a btn which is y i dont get it as i'm transiting frm AS2 to AS3. How shuld i script for the above scenario so that the area "overlapped" can still receive the MouseEvent added to it?
Pls do not tell me to shift the mc forward....there r cases in web development where u happen to have translucent graphics or a movieclip wif image sequences playing in front of a set of btns.
I have a client who is IN LOVE with this site: http:[url]...I was just getting ready to start tweening and wondered if there's a way to script masks to do the same thing easily...NOT on mouse drag, but on the click of the button.
