View 9 RepliesI'm trying to get data from a webservice placed on an other server, parse the data and display it in a datagrid.I'm using the WebServiceConnector component.I placed a crossdomain.xml on the remote server, allowing my domain
(<allow-access-from domain="*.mydomain.corp"
secure="false" />)
Everything works fine within Flash.(Ctrl+Enter)Data is recovered, parsed and diplayed propoerly.But when i try somewhere else,it doesn't work at all.(local swf, local html, nor in http on mydomain)I placed dynamic txt fields to trace the status of the webserviceconnector, throught a listener on "status" event.I have of course an other listener for "result" event, which launches parsing and display.
Within Flash, i see the "status" changing from
"StatusChange" {callsInProgress:1}
to
"StatusChange" {callsInProgress:0}
and then, the "result" event is triggered.[code]......

View 1 RepliesI am developing a ipad game using flash CS5. When I run it in flash or web browser, it run quite smoothly but when I published it into ipa file and run it on my own ipad, it became very very slow. Since my game has many stages and characters, the amount of symbols may up to more than 50. That makes the flash file more than 100mb (but the ipa is only 11mb) All of the symbols are exported in frame 1.
1)if I used preloader and exports the symbols in frame 2, will my game run more smoothly? is one preloader when the game is loaded enough? or it is need for every game scenes?
2)Is there any other technique that a big game developed in Flash has to follow in order can be run in low configurations devices?
3)Why many other big game can run so smoothly although it contains a lot more characters and background than mine?

View 15 Repliesso how would I go about making a DVD game like player 1 vs. player 2 or just player 1 solo in action script 3.0? i know 2.0 well enough and i know a little 3.0 but i am not an expert i am not looking for a complicated game just something simplistic with one question after another I just don't know how to make the options like a right answer a wrong answer and how that would effect scores. or how would i go about if player one got the question right it would go to the next question and if they got it wrong replay the question for player 2 and the points would reflect appropriately also how would i make a time limit for each question? I know you probably wont be able to answer all question I just wanted to convey what I am trying to do.

View 14 RepliesI am trying to create a memory game, where about five or six (doesn't matter how much) different colours com up and flash for a second and disappear in a random order.
Then the user has to try to match them again buy clicking on the colours that they have infront of them in the same sequence as the lights went.
Is there a way to make this game so it will tell you when you are wrong or right, and also is it possible to make the flashing colours random each time you play it?

View 15 RepliesI'm using Flash CS5 to make an iPod app/game. The provided layout makes the default setup 320x480, which is the standard way to hold your iPod VERTICALLY. I want to flip these dimensions to hold the iPod on it's side during gameplay.
So here's my question: If I just flip the document...to (480x320) will the iPod know how to manage the game from that point on? Or do I need to draw everything horizontally and animate that way too? I tried to do just that, but when I test the scene, it only wants to flip that first frame, so everything flops off screen and it ruins the animation. So how do I develop a HORIZONTAL iPod app/game?

" What does FPS stand for?"Below it, I have three potential answers:
A) Felt Pen Stimulator,
B)Fries Pickles Saurkraut,
C)Frames Per Second.
As you all (Hopefully!) know, the last answer is the correct one.What would I type in the Actions box so that when you click the right answer, it takes you to the next question,but when you click the wrong answer, it takes you to a game over screen? (Please, PLEASE make sure your code works before you tell me!)
