ActionScript 2.0 :: Snow Not Random Enough?
May 13, 2005
Got the particle snowfall going fine, but the wind factor - which changes the ._x according to the slider's value - pretty much ruins the initial random() effect of the snowfall. [When taken to a high or low wind factor, then back to 0%, the particles get stringy-looking and too regular.]Tried tweaking the wind variable with a bit of randomness [// in the code] - which solved the above problem, but now the harsher snowfall is a bit too 'wiggly'. How can I maintain the randomness of a soft snowfall without screwing up the wind effect?

I've been experimenting with this and I haven't been able to come up with an adequate solution. Hoping one of you Mathletes can point me in the right direction. I'm building a Snow Globe in ActionScript 3 and I need to come up with a set of equations to control two level of snowflakes - one level random, and the other interactive where a user can click on them.For the random snow, I need to have it create certain number of random x/y positions at the bottom of the globe, which is a circle with a radius of around 300. Then when the shake action occurs, They should randomly float toward the top, then fall back to a random position at the bottom of the circle again.
For the interactive snow, I need it to randomly layout, but I don't want flakes to overlap so that its easier to interact with them.

This question relates to the Falling Snow tutorial on this site...
How can I get the snow fall to randomly change every time the person sees the animation so, for example, you'll see falling snow right now, yet the next time you visit the site you'll see falling cars, or falling mobile phones.

I created bubbles using the snow 3.0 tutorial from here at kirupa. I slightly altered the code so it would be for bubbles on a canvas of 800x500.The problem with the tutorial is that it is for snow moving downward on the y axis. for bubbles in the water, I need them going upward.which part of the code I need to alter so the bubbles will move up and not down? Also, I need the life of the bubble to last the length of the canvas.
Code:
init = function () {
width = 800;
// pixels[code]........

I'd like to put a mask over a snow animation like the one found here: [URL]
However, if I place a simple shape mask above the "snow" layer, it doesn't mask the snow below.
how I might be able to mask the "snow" layer?

i am experiencing a strange and unpleasant situation.I am using CS3 and upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.2 last night, along downloading the latest Flash Player for browsers.
Problem is that now all of my text block arent displaying the same line height that before i updated?????
I compared the same exact SWF made under Tiger and those made under Snow Leopard and the two arent identical, lines are misaligned regarding line height!

[URL]I would like to know how I can get the snow to move up instead of down. I've tried to put a "-" i = "-"1+Math.random()*4; there but it doesn't loop and the snow balls doesn't stop just keeps going.

I have enjoyed the Snow 3.0 code located here on this site:[URL].. It works beautifully. However, I am wondering how I can get the snow to end at a certain frame number. I currently have it starting in frame 25. How could I get it stop in frame 150? I have tried several things and it just keeps snowing throughout the whole movie..

I did the excellent tutorial on Falling Snow for Flash CS4/AS3 on this website.I now want to add further graphics and animations to the snow for an e-card I'm creating.I have tried to add to the timeline and animate a logo, but then the snow just flashes on and off in one piece. Is there a way I can make the snow fall, say, halfway through my animation so I can add other things to it?

I hate to start a new thread but I didn't see one pertaining to this issue. I hope I am not alone. I recently bought a new iMac and it came with Snow Leopard OS. I ported over my Web Premium Creative Suite and all of my applications work great except for Flash CS4. I open the app to the intro screen but as soon as I try to open an existing project file or even to create a new project file, the app crashes immediately. I tried calling Adobe Support but they only turn me away, saying I need to purchase a $175 Support Plan for help. I just want my Flash to open. The same app works fine on my Macbook Pro (running Leopard). It seems adobe should be willing to help seeing as how the specifications say it is supposed to be compatible with Snow Leopard.Anyway, I have tried installing all updates and Deactivating/Uninstalling and Reinstalling.

I have this code that I got from this site and I figured out how to stop the falling snow but it just disappears with remove moviclip function. Is there any way to have the snow fall to an end instead of just disappear? So it looks more natural? I would even take a fade to alpha =0. I have attached the .fla file for viewing.

My 2D game has a simple snow effect, but I would like to improve the framerate performance during this effect.I animate 500 sprites with a particle system, using a white 2x2 .gif image.I animate to whole pixel values only.I turn off smoothing and image compression.I don't rotate or scale.No calculations, just modifying the sprite's x values every frame.I've heard some people discuss bitmap caching.

I'm using Flash MX and am following the falling snow tutorial in the actionscript section. What I'd like is for the snow to move from right to left, but still with the random y position.This code gives me snow (particle) moving right, left, and right again but most ends up along the top (y value of 0).
onClipEvent (load) {
