I have searched many actionscript tutorials and forums in order to find a solution to my problem, so far no luck. My problem: To randomly deal 13 cards, face up, onto pre-designated coordinates of the main stage. Each card is, of course, different. Once dealt, how to get and set the value of each card to initiate the game?

I'm trying to adapt the memory game in chapter 3 of the book "ActionScript 3.0 Game Programming University" for my own uses. I want to get all of the cards to flip and drag.I am able to flip the first card and drag it, but when I flip the second card over, I can't drag it. I have two files, MatchingGameMe.fla and MatchingGameMe.as. All of the actionscript is in MatchingGameMe.as. Here is the code. Does anyone see how I can modify it so that all the cards drag?

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to create Hearts, the card game, as a personal project to learn more AS3.Game requirement:Players should be able to sign in to a server and look for other players to play against.1 player can play against 3. There can be several games at a time.There should be some way to store the history of scores onto databases anyone give me information on the technologies involved? I can go read up more on my own.
I know a bit of Actionscript, PHP, MySQL, no Javascript.
Currently, I have a handle on the basic elements of the game, like drawing cards and shuffling. However, I am lost on how to implement the functionalities unique to certain cards.To simplify things, I have a deck class and a card class. The card class includes variables like a card's name and type, and it gets their values by extracting them from a database. But say, if I'm trying to create a Base Set Charizard, how would I store and call his poke-power (read:ability), as it has effects beyond the normal rules of the game and needs its own code.

View 1 RepliesI'm making a card game with two shuffling decks. The cards from both decks are also supposed to flip and drag. My first deck is working fine, but in my second deck, the card won't flip. Every time I try to flip the card in the second deck, I get this output message: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Wicky/clickCard() I don't get any compiler errors at the moment, but I get that message every time I click on deck two. The card does drag, but it won't flip, and that error message pops up.

Are there any relatively simple programs for building flash applications. I want to add a basic card game to my site, that can keep track of the user's score. The site right now is built in just html, though I will be changing it over to php shortly to implement a log in system. I'd really like to avoid having to learn actionscript on top of it, there has to be some sort of.. basic wysiwyg type flash builder out there?

View 1 RepliesI am experimenting with a card game. In what I have been working on, I got a button to be able to be click and "draw" a card into the players hand. This is all done through the use of arrays and tracing. I have set it up in a class file called drawClass.This, however, is where I am beginning to have trouble. I want it to take a random array value from the array called currentDeck and then place it in the players hand when the player clicks on the draw button. I am using a for loop to try and get a random array value and push it into the playerHand array.
Code:
for(i = 0; i < currentHand.length; i++)
{
if(currentDeck.length == 0) break;[code]....
In addition I have another question in regards to class files. I am relatively new to Actionscript 3. Making the change from Actionscript 2 to 3. It seems that most things should be done in classes and code should be kept out of the main flash file. However, it seems that you have to manually attach a singular class file to the main flash file, through the use of the properties tab in Flash CS5. Meaning it doesn't seem like you can have multiple class files attached.My question is, is there a way to have multiple class files and would that way be to just have them in the same file destination has the main flash file or can you actually only have one class file attached at any given time?
I'm having a problem with the supposed AI that I've created for a card game that I'm making. The purpose is to have the function meant for 'player 2' to run after the human player has put down a card. What the function is supposed to do is to compare the value of the card which is stored in a array, and then according to the value assigned the AI is supposed to compared with the 4 cards in its hand and decide on which is the best possible card to pick. Though the human player's code seem to work as expected, for some reason the function for the computer did not run and instead churned out a huge chunk of data in the output. I will attach 2 separate text files; one will include the portion of the code which I highly suspect is giving the problem, the second will be the supposed error message.

printing directly to a Photo ID Card printer in a web browser?I have a web application that manages user data, photo, and so forth. I'd like to add a Print ID Card feature to it. The web application is a single page javascript application that talks to a RESTful web service via JSON. I'd like to display what the printed card will look like on both the front and back for approval before the user clicks the print button.
Generate front and back JPG or PNG images to print on the server, send them to the client for display and approval, and then somehow send the images to the printer.Use javascript with SVG or Canvas to display the card to print in the UI for approval, then somehow send the SVG/canvas data to the printer.Generate a PDF and print the PDF to the printer.Use Flash to display and print Use a Java applet to display and print Something else?

after several hours tinkering I've set up a movie to initiate a set of actions triggered by a movieclips _x position. Im using Math.round to keep my intergers whole and im using ease on my movie clip. If the movie clip starts at 0,0 and the buttons are hit 1,2,3,4 everything is fine, but hit the buttons out of order (2,4,1,3) or set the start point of the mc to anything but 0,0 and the movie becomes a mess.I don't understand what im doing wrong. I tried some simple loop commands and my comp just locked up repeatedly so I broke down and used frameloops, it's closer to complete but still so far
View 4 RepliesI was wondering how to accomplish this. I have a .swf embedded into an html file with html links on the top. Within the .swf file I have a continue button that takes the user through all the frames. Is it possible to include some kind of code so that when they reach the end of the .swf the "next" link will become initiated and take the user to the next .html page. I am working with captivate is this feature in captivate? If anyone could point me in the right direction or share some wisdom it would really make my day
View 1 RepliesI have an app that when it starts loads up about 200 small gif images from the web server. Code looks something like this:
for each (myValueObject in myarray) {
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(myValueObject.getImageURL());
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
[Code]....
This worked fine in testing for a few dozen images. But now I'm running it with about 200 images, and about half the images load fine but the other half I get an error:
Error 2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent.
Each time I run it, different images succeed and fail. This gives me the sense that I have somehow reached a limit on either the number of concurrent URLRequest threads that Flash can run, or the number of concurrent HTTP requests that the image server can handle... or maybe there is a timeout on Loader that I can make longer?

When people access a page that this demo lives on, the demo doesn't visibly "appear" until over half of the total bytes have already been loaded..You can see this by clicking here, and seeing that by the time the swf materializes on the screen, the preloader progress bar is already over 50% (or so).How can I fix it so that at least something shows up right away, so that the user isn't staring at a blank screen for 30 seconds? The preloader seems to work ok.

View 4 RepliesI'm working on a background music class and found that you cannot use the Sound class in a class file. Specifically, initiating and attaching the sound. Starting, stopping, getting the duration and such seem acceptable (though I haven't tested this yet). I've done a few searches and haven't found any work arounds other than when the class is called, hand it the sound object with the sound already attached, like this:
ActionScript Code:
import bgMusicClass;
var bgSnd:Sound = new Sound(this);
bgSnd.attachSnd("newWave.mp3");
var bgMusic = new bgMusicClass(bgSnd);
I have a main movie called home.fla. In this movie I only have one frame and I have place 5 different movie clips (not SWF) on this frame at different positions but on the same layer. These five movie clips are named mc_main1, c_main2.Each of these movie clips contains 5 frames, with a button on each frame. Each of these buttons also has a movie clip inside them (mc_sub1 mc_sub5). You can only go from frame 1 to frame 2 of each clip (main1, main2 etc.) my clicking on the button on frame1.The user can go to any of the main movie clips in whichever sequence they want. For example, they can choose to go to clip main3 and click on it twice (this will take the user till frame 3 of main3 and play the movie clip that is inside frame3) and then they can decide to click on main1 once and then main4 three times until they have visited all the parts of (all the 25 mc_sub) all the movie clips (main1 main5).
Once the user has visited all the 25 mc_sub i.e. once they have finished going thru all the 5 main movie clips completely, I want to display an animation (mc_animation) on the frame1 or any other frame of the home.fla movie.Is there away to determine if the user has finished watching all the 25 mc_sub i.e. if the user has gone thru each and every frame of each of the mc_main movieclips.I think the problem is that since the user can select any of the mc_main clips in any sequence, I am finding it difficult to determine when they have finished going through everything. If it was all in a sequence then I know I could have calculated if the current frame is equal to total frames and then I would have displayed the animation if the above was true; but that is not the case here.
a SWF that will serve as the main movie for the site. Inside this SWF, I have a script that loads a JPG into a holder MC that's on stage. So basically it's like this:
- main.fla
-- holder_mc (this isn't an empty MC, it has some PNG's inside)
--- external JPG loaded in by loadMovie
I'm ok with building a preloader for the holder_mc and the rest of the FLA (without the size info of the external JPG), but how would I incorporate the size of the external JPG into my initial preloader before I actually start playing everything. Would I have to set the holder_mc visibility to false, call the loadMovie, initiate the preload, and then set visibility back to true. There's gotta be a better way?
