I've been seaching and even trying some motion prototypes on my own, but I can't figure it out: Does any one know how to make shapes appear to move in perspective with ActionScript?
View 3 Repliesmy aim is to get the movie clip (bar shapes) to move up and down randomly over time. this is the actionscript ive done so far. by the way im using flash 8 so i beleive that its actionscript 2.

View 5 Repliesi want to be able to create multiple shapes and store them perhaps in an array to be able to dynamically move them and change them.is there a way to have a shape object and store it an array?so that i can do something like shapeArray[0].x =100 current code
for(var i=0; i<10; i++){
var sprite:Sprite=new Sprite();
sprite.graphics.lineStyle(1)

I was trying to make a shooter from a bird's view perspective...So far I've got my character which is a simple circle, and a rectangle protruding from him (the gun), and it rotates depending on where the mouse is located.I've also got a custom cursor set in, to add some kind of excitement...Here's the dumb question... How do I get it so that whenever I click (shoot) the cursor movieclip will play a certain frame inside of itself? I want it to do something like:
Code:
on(release){
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
It just says that I can't have mouse functions unless it's a button.I was thinking of just making a huge button that covers the whole stage, set the alpha to 0, and when that button is clicked, it will play what I want it to play.
I have a question about shapes (i mean the flash.display.Shape class). Is it possible to import Shapes directly from the library as Shapes and not as Sprites/MovieClips? Shapes are supposed to be faster than MovieClips/Sprites, right? So why is it only possible to import MCs/Sprites from the library? I understand that generally shapes could be created solely by actionscript, but in my case the shape comprises of many points and is curved - so it's quite infeasible.
Is there maybe some sort of plugin to generate code that would draw the desired shape from a drawn shape in CS4? And a last one: Are there any benchmarks out there for performance comparison between sprites/mcs/shapes? How much performance do i loose by using a sprite instead of a shape?
well i want to make buttons that on rollover move to left, on rollout move back to their initial position, and if clicked, they but stay this time at the final rollover place, and be there until something else is clicked. When something else is clicked, the previous button , returns to its initial place. So i ve got it all figured out except for the freeze and move part when the buttons are clicked. All it does now , is when they are clicked they freeze at the position i want, but i havent got a clue how to update them, after so they start moving back, and reacting on rollover and rollout, when the next button is clicked.

Using Tween class maybe? I tried the easeOut. But if will write 2 Tween, the 2nd one will overwrite the 1st one, so I only see the obj moving in the 2nd Tween direction, not the 1st Tween direction. I know the coordinates for the 2nd Tween below is not correct (cos all coordinates shld follow the defined reference point), so I need to find out the logo's width and height. But is alright now cos it is for testing purpose.

This should be easy, but I can't find a good way to make an Engine and a couple of Illustrated cars circle around the inside of a snow globe. I'm using Flash CS4 but am not familiar enough with the bones tool or 3d to get it to look rightpoint me in the right direction. This is kind of important. I'll even do frame by frame animation...I feel a little more in control.
View 1 RepliesI'm making a game like Super Smash Bros., and so far it's pretty good. However, I came across one problem: I can't get the camera to move. Basically, I somehow want the camera to always show 100% of everything on the screen. If a character goes really far down, I want the camera to zoom out. If they're next to each other, I want it to zoom in. How do I do this? I didn't get a single dang response to like the last 4 posts I made.

View 9 RepliesI can move my man with aswd and shoot moving balls with space, but there is an issue with it. When I'm moving my man by holding down a key, and then press space to shoot off a ball, then movement halts and you have to up and down the key again, to make the man continue to move.Here is the code:
Code:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, moveMan);
function moveMan(e:KeyboardEvent):void

As you might be able to see, I tried using another variable to store the old key code in, and switch it after the actions of a space press has occured.e how to make the sprite move after another key has been pressed, without having to up and down the key again?

View 1 Repliesapologies if this question doesn't seem very clear, i'm finding it difficult to describe what i mean.can i make object move 'out of view' in a movieclip?for example, in the same waya movieclip can move offstage, i'm trying to find a way to make the content of a movieclip move out of view to the side but within the scope of the movieclip.so if i have a square movieclip size x=100 y=100 with a circle size 10 in the centre, i'm trying to make it so when my circle moves to the left more than the size of the movieclip it starts to move out of view.another example would be if i had a character on a television (the screen being the movieclip

I have an object that I want to smoothly move along the x axis when the user clicks on the screen. I first made a prototype that would make the ball end at a location I specified by doing x = 450; I then tried looping ball1.x += 1 with a for/do (I encapsulated it with a boolean so the if ball1.x got to 450 it would stop) statement and I couldn't see the ball transition, I just saw it stop at the 450 mark.

The enemy class has a bitmapped embeded into it. I am using FlashDevelop to program. When I do something like enemy.x+=1 it works, but when I try using my tween it script the enemy stands still no matter what the position of the mouse.
i'm rewriting my game code in as3 and can't figure out how to make my hero move smoothly once the directional keys are down. In as2 all I had to do was putting a line lke this: "if(key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)" and as long as the right arrow was being pressed, my hero was moving nicely across the screen. In as3, however, having written a very similar code, the hero knd of gets oddly "blocked" from moving. My as code looks liek this:

I want to know how can i make a point (movieclip) move, i know that if i double click the movieclip e can manually change the 'x' an 'y' values and this way the point will move.
It is possibly to link this with java? And make java pass the x and y values to the animation?
Actually i am doing project called multi agent system whereby the agent will based on behavior(declared and defined by ourself) to move in the map. The map consists of buildings, roads, infrastructures and others. i have finished those buildings and roads.
