I got 4 different pictures that I'd like to load randomly. The thing is that I don't want to load the picture from an external .swf file. I'd rather load them inside the same .swf document that I'm working on.

but how would you load movies that are already imported in the library???
Yes i used the search feature and found a topic for it, but the link they said the help was on, did not work..How can i create random pictures?
View 8 RepliesIn this game I dynamically load 9 random pictures onto the stage. They all start off with maximum blur. The idea is that when the user hears a sentence the pictures gradually lose their blur. The sooner the correct picture is clicked on, the higher the score. My problem is, I can't stop the tween when the user clicks on a picture. I've tried it successfully on a much simpler fla, where the images are already on the stage and not loaded from an external source.
Here's my extracted code - the source fla is way too long to attach.
Actionscript Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.Strong;
import flash.filters.*;
import mx.controls.Loader;
var totalBlur:Number = 100;//100 is maximum blur,

I am loading external child SWF's into a parent SWF. The embed params for the parent force wmode=opaque. Can I send the wmode to each child SFW and force it to something else regardless of the parents passed varibles? I'd like to play with GPU.
View 2 RepliesBasically I have 10 different movie clips, all hold in them a different image of a car. They have titles like blackcar, redcar, etc etc... How to show a blackcar when my black button is pressed?
I've tried
on (release) {
with ("blackcar") {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
However the screen just flashes, even after a stop(); in the movieclip.
We have FMS 3 on a server I'll call "Streamer" We have a public webserver running IIS on a server I'll call "Web Server". We host our website on Web Server, and both Streamer and Web Server are behind our firewall.
I made a page on Web Server with a flash file that has a Player which goes to [url]...
When we navigate to www.domain.com/test.html (which has the embedded video) from inside the network, we get the video streamed to us. However, when we get a laptop with an aircard connection up (to simulate a request from the web), the user gets a blank flash file with no video whatsoever.
On Streamer, the log file shows the IP address of my PC (the PC that made the request from the video inside the network) so that makes sense. But it shows no other request being made (like when the laptop/aircard made the request from the web).
We used wire shark and sure enough it showed that from Web Server to Streamer, there was traffic when it packet captured the internal request. But there was no traffic when the public request was made.
I've made a gallery, that loads pictures using XML and fades them in and out using Tweener. the gallery can be seen here: [URL] so far the XML and the loop that fades the pictures in and out works fine.so far, so good.the actionscript to all of this can be seen here
Code:
stop();
//var
var xmlloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xml:XML;
[code]....
but I've not been able to make it work so; i'd like tips on how I can place my pictures beneath an already existing mask in my Flash.
The following works:
ActionScript Code:
pic_arr = ["flower_pink.jpg", "flower_yellow.jpg", "flower_purple.jpg", "flower_red.jpg", "flower_orange.jpg"];
color_arr = [0xf75eb0, 0xf6f818, 0xbb57c8, 0xdf1734, 0xfe9809];
// specify pic locations, alpha increment each frame, and
// number of frames to keep current picture displayed before
// transitioning to the next one

Scenario: Upload 2 images to a server. Download those images via AS3 and place them into different containers(movieclip or sprite), not overlapping one another. Well I can do it no problem, but they overlap one another and for some reason use the same "loader".
Code:
for (var i=1; i<2; i++){
var image:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://myurl.com/images/" +jpgarray[i]+".jpg");
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();[code]....
There are several different ways you can write the above code, but the outcome is still the same. It uses the same Loader or Movieclip, or uses the same container, simply overlapping the images.
I have an XML document that has 25 different subjects and in each subject, 4 different pictures:
[code]...
I have 2 groups of different buttons. The first group is a set of 4 buttons, one for each image in a single subject. When the user clicks btn1 then image 1a needs to display. When the user presses btn2 then image 1b displays, and so on.The second group of buttons is a set of 2 btns: nextSubjectBtn and prevSubjectBtn. The names are pretty self explanatory but basically, when the user clicks nextSubjectBtn then I need the next subject from the xml to load and the 1 2 3 4 btns need to switch over to the images within the next subject. So when the user presses btn1 then image 2a shows up etc.
I have studied a ton of documents on XML but I have not been able to figure this out. Its probably something pretty simple involving one or more arrays and maybe a loop or two but I dont know what.I have have all of the buttons programmed or at least recognized and ready for when I figure out what they are supposed to do. Right now they just have a trace.Through help I have gotten from different documents and other programmers this is what I need to do but I need help on how:Assign each of a buttons a value that will reference the picture URLs from the XML doc. Then create a variable with a value that references each subject 1 through 25. so when I click next subject it goes to the next subject in the xml doc.
why is this code NOT loading a random image, despite tracing random number?

I am now using the code for my background image which will rotate when you enter a new gallery.I can't get it to randomize.[code]I have tried adding: Math.floor(Math.random() * total); and it almost works. It seems everytime the last node is called it stops working (also at other random times, haven't found a pattern).

View 8 RepliesI have a Flash 9 AS3 document where I have set up a random picture loader from an XML file.
Works fine on the desktop but when uploaded the random pictures will only load if the XML file and the jpg's are in the same folder as the swf. I have pointed the XML loader address to
the proper spot in the AS3 code as well as in the XML file. I also have code in another keyframe for loading and displaying an RSS feed which works fine. I wonder are the two URL Loaders conflicting somehow. Attached is the RSS and the AS3 code.
I'm creating an interactive flash graphic about the ISS. The user can rotate the ISS in a 360� angle. I rendered the sequence in 120 steps, each step a jpeg-image of its own. To reduce bandwith-usage I dynamically preload the next 5 pics in the rotation-sequence. What I want to do now, is to load all the pics of the sequence quietly in the background, so when all pictures are loaded the flash switches from preloading the future pics to just showing the pictures loaded while the application is up and running. The problem is, if I try this, the flashapp will only start if the loading in the background is done. Is there any way of getting rid of that. My code is given below.
ActionScript Code:
var loader_current_Minus1:Loader = new Loader();
var loader_current_Minus2:Loader = new Loader();

I have created a php-file that sends the filenames of images from a folder on a server back to flash, where i populate a array with that info.
What i want to do now is to load the images on the server into a movieclip to make some sort of slideshow.
But im not sure how to make this work. Can i use the loadMovie method for this? How can i then get the array info into the loadMovie method? Im a newbie so please explain well.

I'm using a package to play back .wav files in Flash. I can make wav's play back, however, what I cannot do is trigger their playback from a button. I suspect this is because I've misunderstood the this keyword. Below is an example.
You can see that when I call playBackTest() directly it works; when I call this object from a button it doesn't.

Hello again. Well I dont have too long to write this down so I'll make it short and sweet. Heres the problem.I need to load pictures into a file. However I want it to load all the pictures in a certain folder. Does anyone have any suggestions, or questions as to what i am trying to do? I want to load pictures into the movie at runtime. And I want it to load all the picture within a folder. I could name the pictures in a certain way if needed. aka pic1, pic2.

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to load 3 pictures into 3 movieclips. The code below gives the result of only showing the 3rd image in mc3_mc. According to the traces I'm using, 3 files are being loaded but it seems that my Event.COMPLETE statement is not doing it's job? It seems that the first 2 times addChild is reached the file has not finished loading or the next one has already started to load so addChild doesn't add anything. Only the final iteration gets shown because there is no 'next file' to get in it's way.
Code follows:
var numofiles:int=2;
var counter:Number=0;
var movieIndex:int;

I'm trying to load a different .gif file based upon the time of day. I figured what I wrote would work, but alas, I was wrong. Here's what I got:
Code:
files=["sunrise.gif", "morning.gif", "midday.gif",
"afternoon.gif", "twilight.gif", "night.gif"]
var currentHour:Number = myDate.getHours();

I know I can take out that first array, and I do believe I can take out the minutes and seconds, but I left the code as is, in case I screwed it all up. Oh and the pictures have no paths because I imported them into the actual .fla.

i have some linkedlist or tree-structure contents(images,sounds etc.) I want to pre-load next items(content) to cache while user interacting with current content. Thus, when user want to see next content, it'll show immideately and start loading next content in the background.For an example, Assume in image gallery in the tree structure. While user looking at the picture, i want to load next nodes of tree silently to improve speed.
