first post on here and many more to come I am sure. I have a simple question on a FLA I downloaded from ultrashock. You can download the FLA here
Currently when you rollover a button the submenu drops down, but I was wanting to make that drop down menu animate above the button that is rolled over.Make sense? For some reason I just don't see where you make this change in the code.
how do we refer the submenubutton which hasbeen masked inside a movie clip.
In my code ,
mainBtn3 is present inside "mm " movie clip . and on click of it I am able to move to another frame using below code . But, if there is a sub menu for the button , and if I am referring it as below [mm.btn3sub1] and trying to move to another frame . I am getting following error
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at sumiyatried12356_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

I'm currently working on a flashsite and are trying to figure out rollover menu buttons. The site has 6 menu buttons and are placed next to each other. I want to put a rollover action on the buttons, that when you rollover a button that the whole button image enlarges and moves in front of the other.
View 1 RepliesI want to rollover a button and have it trigger the rollover state of another button. The buttons overlap. The one on top is transparent and smaller than the bottom button. So far I think I have the AS3 to handle the rollover of the top button, but I don't know how to trigger the other button's rollover state.

I'm using actionscript 1.0 and 2.0 on flash Pro 8 and keep getting an error when I test the movie. Here is the error:
[Code]...
I've tried to create this rollover navigation...starting over 6 times already. Is there different language / coding for 1.0 and 2.0? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
The animation/rollover works well but it still abruptly stops when I rollover another button. The link below is an example on what I want to accomplish.
View 1 RepliesTake a look at the following sites; and notice their menus. Both have a rollover and rollout on their buttons, and when the button is hit the button stays down until another button is pressed. In the scissor sisters site, the neon bar still fades out after another has been pressed.

I am trying to achieve this myself with my own site, which you can view in progess here:
My Site
I have mastered the button rollOver and rollOut effect, in which i gathered the code from a kirupa tutorial. My problem is, getting the neon bar to stay underneath teh last button that has been pressed.The main movie is located on the main timeline in frame 2, because frame 1 contains the pre loader.
The actions for frame 2 of the main timeline are:
Code:
stop();
movieLoader.loadMovie("news.swf");
total = movieLoader.getBytesTotal();
loads = movieLoader.getBytesLoaded();
[code]....
Now the buttons are not buttons, they are movieclips, which are located on the stage, and have instance names of b1 for news, b2 for biography etc etcInside the movieclip, the animation of the neon bar fading in takes 25 frames, and this has a stop action on the end.
This code is placed on the first frame:
Code:
stop();
news.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true)
[code]....
So now my problem is to make sure that the last button clicked leaves the underline bar down until the next button is pressed.
I started working on a little page of mine, and I already ran into some trouble hehe. I'm kind of learning as I go along. Heres the script I'm having some trouble with:
ActionScript Code:
this.qmbacking.onRollOver = function() {
//tweens rolling in the menu

We have created a SWF file with sound. When importing that SWF into another FLA. file as a movie clip, the sound on the SWF is gone
View 2 RepliesI'm working on a project, and it's going OK. What I want to do is for the user to rollover a button/object, and a little pop-up box will show up, and it will have some text/photos/... Pretty routine stuff. That I can accomplish without a problem...
Now, what I want to add in there is also a hyperlink that will open a Web page in a new window. And that's where I get stuck. It won't let me.
I assume it's because part of the rollover thing in the button symbol. That's how I'm doing it so far.
So, is there anything I can do going that route, or do I need to take another approach?
I'm thinking the other option would be to create a movie clip, which would hold the pop-up box and the photos and the like, then make a button within that which would hold the hyperlink. Then, I could create an object right on the timeline with a rollOver that would trigger the movie-clip instance.
My animation is complete. Previewing it (.swf) works perfectly fine. Playing it in flash works perfectly fine.But once it has exported to .mov the frame rate temporarily drops in certain places (usually around tweens)...
View 6 RepliesSometimes in Flash, alpha transitions will just drop out without reason. They still appear in the preview mode, but when you export a swf it drops all tweened alpha animations. they become cuts instead. I've even tried opening the same file in CS4. Same dilemma.

I am a game programmer and i have made a game where there is a character which has to select the right pieces and avoid the wrong ones. the pieces/food come from top, the character jumps and fetches them. Thats why we are keeping a gap between the pieces to avoid the character touching the wrong ones.
Problem : When I win the game and keep re-playing it continuously for more than an hour i notice that the gameplay gets slow(slow FPS). The behavior and movement of the characters become slow. Upon playing for 3 hours the slowness is easily noticeable. This also happens when I minimize the game window or get the focus off the game to some other window for a long time (half an hour or more). The problem doesn't come if I play once or if I lose the game and try again. This comes when I keep playing it for a longer time.
I would like Flash to reconnect to a socket if its connection is dropped. I am using the Socket class to establish a connection and then adding an Event.CLOSE listener to the socket. What is a good strategy to reconnect back to the socket if the connection has suddenly closed? Here is a the method I am calling inside the close handler. The connect() method establishes a new socket connection
HTML Code:
private function handleOutage():void
{
// if socket is not connected
[code]...
However, I keep getting the following error:
HTML Code: Error #2044: Unhandled securityError:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation
Trying to create rain. I found a snow tutorial and still working on the rain.
View 5 RepliesI want "rain drops" to fall randomly and then when they hit the bottom most pixel of my stage to run another movie clip called "splash" so it looks like it is raining and the "drops" could fall and "splash" at the bottom of the stage.

I have a picture with an opaque box over it and when you scroll over the opaque box i want it to tween out and the picture become a clickable area...then when you roll off the opaque box returns to it original position.

View 0 RepliesI have a FLV playing in my SWF and when viewed locally in Flash or just in the Flash player by clicking the file on my desktop the file plays fine with decent quality audio. However as soon as I upload the file to my website the audio quality seems to drop.
View 9 RepliesThe site is build up entirely in flash. I let flash publish with the option scale: default (show all).
Can that be the reason why the pictures on the site look so bad? The picture looks so unsmooth, you see so many pixels in the borders. How come?

I have trouble with a script for my game project. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. This is the code I'm using:
[Code].....
Now, if the variable enemie_life drops to 0 (which I'm tracking with a dynamic text box) it just ignores frame 241 and continues with the second part of the code. There I have another problem: from my understanding (and the way I'd like it to be) it should give me a 3/1 chance to go to 126 and otherwise go to 181. The latter almost never happens. It seems more like a 100/1 chance (and I tried it often ...).
I have a code that duplicates a movie clip that then falls across a picture. They are sort of like water drops on a window but I want the picture to only be seen through the water drops. My problem is I can't get more than one drop to mask the picture at a time. I have tried code in the duplicated MC and I have tried pasting a bunch of instances to the stage and creating a mask later. The following is the code of the duplicated movie clip where _root.drop is the falling mask and _root.bg is the picture I want to see through the drops.
onClipEvent (load) {
var framecount = 0;
if(this != _level0.drop){
this._x = random(795) + 15;
this._y = -30;
