I'm tyring to get a movie clip to move from it's current x, yposition to a designated x., y postion specifiedin a button (onrelease). But I need the movie clip to move at a constant rate regardless of it's distance traveled. I can't get it to work. I'm having troble knowing which code to put where, Button, object and frame
View 1 RepliesOn PC games I've written the game logic and render are seperate calls.This allowed me to time how long the render is taking and therefore only draw when there is time. The result of this is the game runs at the same speed on any PC but the graphics are smoother on a higher spec PC because the render is done more frequently.How do you achieve the same in AS3? - how can I time the render? - when is the actual render done?. Do I simply time the exit from my base class and also the entrance into it, is the difference simply my 'render time' - of course flash may do other things during the exit/enter of my function.I'l looking to maintain a frame rate of 50fps on the logic with a render 'when can'

View 1 RepliesI have a projectile that generated by this code:
//initial code
bullet1.x = bullet1.x + (cur_speed_x / 10);
bullet1.y = bullet1.y - (cur_speed_y / 10);
cur_speed_y = cur_speed_y - g / 50;

I want the projectile to keep the same path but just move faster without having to increase the frame rate of the movie. Where I should increase the motion in the above formulas to get that to happen?
I'm recording Webcam to FMS 3.5 but when I play the recorded video from FMS it's choppy. I have set the camera.fps to 30 but when I trace out the currentFPS for camera it's variable and usually falls between 20 and 30. However when I play the recorded video, netStream's currentFPS returns a lower value, something closer to 10. So my question is, 1) why currentFPS of netStream is not the same as Camera's? 2) What's the actual frame rate of the recorded video (not the netStream, but FLV's)?

I basically have a flash site that loads flash movies using loadMovie command, however, the frame is lost within these movies and simply adopts the main site frame rate.

View 2 RepliesI have been searching far and wide for a solution on how to offer slow motion and fast motion options for users that upload video to my webstie. There is an implementation on Google Video that has exactly what I am looking for: the option to speed up or slow down the video and continue to play the audio. The screenshot is below. I know that Flowplayer has an option to slow down or speed up video when implemented with Wowza server. However, when using that approach, there is no sound.
I have also seen the option from Enounce called MySpeed that allows video to be slowed or quickened, but this requires a browser plugin which is too much of a barrier for our users. How does Google do it? How can you add an option to a flash player to slow down or speed up video?Here is a screen shot. You can see the option to change the speed of the video to 1.5x. It also has options to go to 0.5x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x, 2.0x, 2.5x, and 3.0x.
I would like to create a polygon that changes its shape (circle, trapezium, square, rectangle, triangle) based on specific buttons that the user clicks? An existing shape has to be able to morph into all the others. For instance, the trapezium has to morph to a square, circle, rectangle or triangle.
If I were to create each transition manually, I would end up with 5x4=20 scenes. Is there a way that I can just assign each shape to its own frame, and deploy actionscript to set in motion the transitions from one frame to the 4 other possible frames? I am very grateful to anyone to just point me in the right direction,
How do I add motion blur to a motion tween?
View 2 Repliesim writing AS3 under linux and as such do not have access to ANY of the fl.* packages, including tweens, motions, special animations and components. I can only use Math.* and XY Grid Coordinates to calculate motion manually.
I can make movement of sprites fairly easily on a coordinate system, but this restricts how the path can go. Usualy only an up,down,left,right movements for the simplest math. I suppose this could be expanded to move in more varied directions but its not quite what im looking for.
I would like to be able to draw an invisible line that a shape can follow. Then it can have curves or bends in it without problem. I want to then start the sprite at the 1st pixel of the line and set its next coorinate based on where the line is at, but at 10px down it (and so on) till it reaches the end of the line. Is it possible because I cant think of a way? Are there any other good PureAs3 motion tutorials around?
I'm getting the following error: Motion tweening will not occur on layers with ungrouped shapes or on layers with more than one group or symbol. I don't have any ungrouped shapes (it's all text), each layer has 5 instances of only one symbol (keyframes), no objects are grouped and text is all static text.
When watching the animation, the first word (web) looks fine, on the second word (design) the tween fails on the last couple of frames of that clip (the blur filter disappears), the third word (and) is OK, and on the forth word (development) the blur filter is not applied to the last 16 frames of that clip.I broke each animation into its own MC thinking that was causing the issue, but that didn't fix anything.

View 2 RepliesIs it possible to set the frame rate of a movie through ActionScript 2? Is it possible to check it?
I've found many ways to check the rate at which it is playing, but I want, ideally, to be able to set the frame rate dynamically at runtime. I'm making a timer that uses flashing dots to show each unit of time, and I'd like to create a user interface so that someone playing the swf can set the time intervals without having to open the fla to change the frame rate.

I often see a 'rate this app'-button in ios apps and want to recreate it in my own apps for ios. As i am working in Adobe AIR i can't use any of the native libraries linked in the answer below.
My question is - how do i make a 'rate this app'-button in an iOS app created with Adobe AIR?I can't find any Air Native Extensions (ANE) covering this specific case so i am thinking maybe there is a simpler way - maybe i just need a special link from the app to the app-store?

Actually I am working in an image scroller project. It was working perfectly. But the client asked to do some updations. First of all please download the file that I have atached, which is a screen shot of user control page for image scroller. There is an user control page for image scroller. You can see many options there. In user control, scroller is specified as marquee scroller. There is an option, Speed of scroller, which denotes how quickly the image should scroll. The unit of this field is seconds. Because we are giving seconds in that field. A single image should move out of the stage with in the specified seconds in "speed of scroller" field.
var UnitDistPerSec:Number = Number(TransSpeed)*10; where "TransSpeed" denotes the speed we are given in the user control page. var FPS = 100; var ScrlConst = UnitDistPerSec/FPS;

I have a problem exporting a flash movie to a Quicktime movie with the correct frame rate. When I try to transfer it to a DVD that will play in loop, the video is jerking. I really need to get a 30 fps video.
I'm using Flash CS3 on Mac OS X. I built my flash animation with photos and text only (no SWF or movies linked or embeded, no actionscript, no sound, one scene only). The frame rate I specified in my flash movie is 30 fps. My scene format is 1360 x 768 pixels (16:9).
I need to export my flash movie in an almost uncompressed format to bring it to a DVD.

View 15 RepliesI am working in a flash file, and I wish to embed a new swf. Normally, I would just import it using the video importer, but this swf has controls on it, and I have a feeling they might be lost if the swf is converted to a swf. So, I am now using the loader class to laod it in. Is it possible to make it totally independent to the rest of the fla? One example, I want the frame rate to be different in the loaded swf, to the original swf, is this possible?
View 3 RepliesI recently built a flash movie that I am going to export out into a quicktime movie for YouTube. I mistakenly built it with the frame rate of 12 fps and I need to switch it to 30 to make it compatible for YouTube.
My question is:
Is there an easy way to change the frame rate from 12 to 30 and keep the same timing that I have with the movie at 12fps? The only way I can think to do it is manually, but I was wondering if there is an easier way.
is there a way to get this parameter from flash somehow? The Capabilities class can't do it. I'm using the latest Flex SDK and the new Molehill API for FP11, if that matters.
View 6 RepliesI am trying to get the main timelines frame rate. In AS2 I can detect the frame rate from the outside in my main App, but I can not find the AS2 code to to do it from with in.In AS3 I can do:
trace(stage.frameRate);
I have a AS2 component that is frame rate dependent. I need to have it detect the FPS instead of passing FPS variable to it.
I'm building an application in Actionscript using Flash assets, and my frame rate becomes very low (~7 fps) when I attempt to render 20+ assets on the screen, even though most of those assets are stopped movie clips. I've tried setting .cacheAsBitmap to true, which helps a bit, but not enough. What else can I do to get the frame rate up? I've noticed that some movie clips seem to impact it more than others, but I'm not sure how to alter them to make them easier to render.
