View 2 RepliesI am trying to make a so called pixel effect in witch I want to make a shape only from pixels that are positioned in some random place on the stage.

View 7 RepliesI don't work with the Flash IDE very much, and I'm running into a problem with the unreliable creation order of components instantiated by the Flash IDE "magic".
Basically, I have to call a function on a loaded module. This function should only be called after all the module's children have been added to the stage.[code]...

I am currently having problems referencing a MovieClip child which I add to the Stage from the Document Class. Basically when the MovieClip child is added to the Stage from the Document Class, I want a certain MovieClip already on the Stage to reference it once it is on the Stage.
Also, if it is possible, I don't want the MovieClip referencing the child being added to the Stage to have parameters linking it with the Document Class, because I plan on nesting this MovieClip within another MovieClip later on in the future.
Here is the code for the MovieClip class which is referencing the child once it is added to the Stage:
package com.gameEngine.assetHolders
{
import com.gameEngine.documentClass.*;
import com.gameEngine.assetHolders.*;

View 2 Replieshow can we place hundreds of instances of one movieclip on different place?
for exemple, pacman:
how should i code the placement of all the money?
i would go:
_root.attachMovie(

_root.attachMovie(
but that's not the good solution is it?
there must be a code to do that without hundreds of lines of code.
I have 3 mc's in my library each with linkage "icon1", icon2", icon3". What I'm trying to do is load one of them randomly in to the stage. Here's the code I have so far:
Code:
//creating an array that holds the mcs
var iconsarray:Array = new Array("mc1","mc2","mc3");
//creating a random number to use for loading the mc
var randmc:Number = Math.round (Math.random ()*2)+0;
//this is just a string to hold the mc with the number, not used
var all:String = (iconsarray[randmc]);

I'm working on a project where I have to load multiple movie clips and center them on the stage.
PHP Code:
loaded_clip._x = Stage._width/2;loaded_clip._y = Stage._height/2;
Unfortunately, in this case that doesn't cut it. The move clips I'm loading all have different registration points, and they end up looking anything but centered. Is there a way to center them based on some other factor other than the registration point, so that they look centered?

View 5 Repliessupposing there is a movieclip in stage.. let's say its a circle with an instance name of "theCircle"..
the circle has to move / go to / animate to a random location on stage every 5 seconds... basically, the circle should move to the random location, stop and wait for 5 seconds, then move again to another random location.. again and again...
the code below is untested and incomplete.. but it is what i am trying to do.
Code:
var randomXPosition:int;
var randomYPosition:int;
var positionTimer:Timer;
[Code]....
on the moveCircle function, i can simply set the X and Y of the circle equal to randomXPosition and randomYPosition... but that would just change the location of the circle, not move it.. i am trying to make the circle animate towards that location at a constant speed..
I have 16 instances of one movie clip on the stage and each one has their own unique instance name. The movie clips have a nested animation and I want each clip to play randomly. I'm familiar with the Math.random class, but not for animating clips. Here is what I have so far:
Code:
var turkeyArray:Array = new Array();
turkeyArray[0] = turkey1_mc;
turkeyArray[1] = turkey2_mc;
turkeyArray[2] = turkey3_mc;
turkeyArray[3] = turkey4_mc;
[Code] .....

How to add random movie clip to stage from many different movie clips in library? If I wanted to add one movie clip to stage I would do liko so:
Code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMove);
function onMove(e:MouseEvent):void {
var mc:MovieClip = new Ball();
mc.x = mouseX;
mc.y = mouseY;
addChild(mc);
}
Code above works perfect but I tried following but with no success, no errors, but nothing happens - no mc's are added to stage. I have 6 movie clips in library and they all are linked, exported for actionscript. On MouseOver I want to add random movie clip from those six movie clips to the stage.
Code:
var myArray:Array = [mc1, mc2, mc3, mc4, mc5, mc6];
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onLoop);
function onLoop(e:MouseEvent):void {
for (var i:int = 0; i< myArray.length; i++) {
var randomMc:Number = Math.floor(Math.random()*i);
var mc:MovieClip = new myArray[randomMc];
addChild(mc);
mc.x = mouseX;
mc.y = mouseY;
}}

View 1 RepliesI made flash player and i used that tutorial: HERE. Everything is good, but when one song is ending, next song's start is delay about 1-2 sec. You can say that is nothing in flash mp3 player, but if each other song is one short speaker sentence(there are about 10 one by one) it may be nervous. how to delete that delay? I don't need to have xml playlist. Just i want to start one by one(all playlist is about 300-400 loop/songs/mp3 files) without delay.
Now I think there is no way to delete that delay(how i can do it), but i have another idea. I will make one big file from 10 or 20 of that smaller, but i need to have in my player one thing more. When user will press start button, song won't start at 00:00/xx:xx but in random place. You know what i mean ? It will not start at start but somewhere else, in random place(maybe 00:21/xx:xx or 02:47/xx:xx or 01:02/xx:xx).
