ActionScript 2.0 :: Encrypt Data On A Scoreboard?
Oct 17, 2011
Basically I've set up a scoreboard for a flash game I've made for a client. Now the scoreboard works fine but apparently it's not very secure. One of the clients friends was able to add a score of 100,000 without even playing the game. This is quite a big problem as they are planning on doing a competition with prizes for the highest scores.
What's the normal way to encrypt data on a scoreboard? The scores are stored in a MySQL database btw.

I know, yet another topic on protection. I think we've established the fact that you will almost always will be able to decompile a SWF, but that's not exactly what my question is about. I have a client who wants to show data (some html and css) in a Flash movie. This content will be delivered from an external source and will be passed through to the SWF. The main idea is not to be able to copy-paste the html. Of course, if you use a flashvar to pass the html-source or html-page to the SWF, it's easy to look it up in de pagecode. So perhaps a sollution is to encrypt the html before sending it through to the SWF and decrypt it inside the SWF. But of course, you would need some sort of key that's hardcoded inside the SWF file to decrypt the information ... which is a problem if you can decompile an SWF. So my question is, is there any way to encrypt data delivered to an SWF so it's impossible to directly access the data?

I would like to implement some security in some of the Flash/PHP applications that I have. I have some Flash apps that communicate with PHP files, and the PHP is sending the data as get string (E.g.: name=John&sname=Doe&age=24&balance=12.4). Instead of all these variables, I would like it to send a single variable (E.g.: flashvar=jr9afgaw9-fg90agfawf7gw) that would contain those values, so then Flash would decrypt the string and get the real and useful vars.
I want to encrypt this using a private key and use the same private key to decrypt this inside Flash. If someone would want to decode the message PHP sends, he would have to decompile the flash file and find the private key I'm using in Flash to decode the message and then decode it. The reason I posted here is because I want to use an encryption algorithm that allows only the use of a private key for encryption/decryption.

I have a scoreboard in flash which works great, but once go back onto the scores page at the end of the game it adds the text to each field again rather than refreshing the scores/names, therefore each item appears twice in each box..
Is there a correct way to dynamically update the scores each time I access the page ? I've tried creating a loop that sets the value of each text_box.text to ""; once I leave the page but that didn't work !!

I'm building a dynamic scoreboard for a client currently. The first application will be a golf leaderboard. It needs to be updateable by the client (I'll write a form that fills in the xml file from the users input)I need to have a xml file that defines..-number of columns/rows-titles-content in each boxand then the flash that takes that and generates a table from it.Is there any tutorials or source files floating around that do this? There's plenty that talk about in-game scoreboards, but we need to have all the data input from an external file.

I need to create a scoreboard for my game. I want to be able to let my user submit the time it took to complete the game to my scoreboard. I have been able to purchase webspace with SQL, PHP. I have set up my SQL database. I have found a great tutorial about how to do precisely what I wanted on YouTube BUT after starting the tutorial I realised it was ActionScript 2, I REALLY need time type of tutorial but for ACTIONSCRIPT.

I'm trying to make a scoreboard of players.It works fine for strings (like the username) listing like:
User1
User2
User3
etc
using in PHP to seperate them. (Using Flash,PHP,MySQL Integration)This is how I get them from the db in PHP:
PHP Code:
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ $rankPos .= $nrow . "
"; //# Position $rankUser .= $row['user'] . "
"; //Username obviously $rankN .= $row[$rankBy] . "
[code]...
The problem with this is, when flash receives rankings such as time, they are seperated by newlines () which makes them strings instead of integers as they rightly should be.
I'm using a time to string function to convert the time as integer (getTimer()) to a format HH:MM:SS It's fine ranking the times in the getTimer format but it all becomes a mess when trying to display the string format instead. (Considering times for all players are linked in the same string passed by PHP as time
time
time
time (000000
[code]...
The reason they are split with newlines is because the rankings are displayed in a single dynamic text.I tried converting each time in flash using the int function, but what would you do for newlines? The time rankings just comes out as '0' because of the newlines.I've also tried using this following function to remove the newlines and then possibly put each time into an array.
Actionscript Code:
function time(input){ timestr = ""; for(i=0; i<input.length; i++){ if(input.charAt(i) != " "){ timestr += input.charAt(i);} } return timestr;}
[code]...
What would I check for in order to get each time into an array?Though I'd much prefer using a much more efficient and easy method for display high scores.

I am making a scoreboard. On this scoreboard I will have 10 different scores. I want to compare the 10 scores and list the top 3 scores in another location. I was thinking at first
if(score1>score2&&score1>score3&&score1>score4 etc.....){
some function
}
But this will only give me the top score in the group. I would like to find the top 3 scores, and then list them.

I also want another fla file to be able to reference this external array and pull the top 15 scores from it, and then display those scores on a scrolling banner. I want the banner to be able to update dynamically (I assume reloading the banner fla each time it reaches the end of its cycle, having the first frame load the external array on an onClipEvent action would accomplish this), that way it will update while remaining open. The main reason I need two separate files for the quiz and the score banner is they will be displayed on two different monitors. What would be the most efficient way of accomplishing this? I know a little about actionscript but I don't have much experience with calling data and functions from external fla or as files (the array and the function designating how the data will be arranged within said array are going to be in a separate .as file).

I need to make a scoreboard/timer that would show on a projector so that everyone can see the current points and the 8 second timer, all this controlled for a non-flash-user, considering someone else will have to do it cause I'm IN the gameshow, so it has to be easily-changable.
[[[I'd also like to mention I apparently heard that this could somehow be done sending information between flash and excel? The image attached is what it'd look like. Each peice is a graphic object in flash.

I need this for a simple iPhone app...I was trying to create a Scoreboard for my iPhone using Flash CS5 in Air for iOS mode. I succesfully add the Timer and the 24-seconds Timer, but now i need soooo much help. Problems: 1. When the Timer reaches 0 mins, it display only :59, not 00:59 2. I tried to add a Button for the Counter of the points, but it seems very complicated in AS3(not in AS2 :/). I created a TLF Read Only Text named "HomeScore" . But it's a String not a Number so i can't add a simple counter. 4. with the Reset button (for Timer & 24-Seconds) and the Start/Stop buttons (for Timer & 24). My code:import flash.events.MouseEvent;

I am making my very first AS3 game, and though it's quite simple I'm having trouble setting up a scoring system. The concept of the game is simple. Objects appear on the screen, clicking the objects adds points. For this project I am working with 3 AS files, a Document class and two movieclip class files. I would also like to track how many objects have been added to the stage in addition to the score which should track how many objects have been clicked. Here is my Doc Class

I think the simple way to encrypt a swf is using Loader. Adding a chorme to the target swf, so the decompiler can not work.
I'd used serval encrypt tools. Finally, I find a very lite app(air application).
