ActionScript 2.0 :: Start Button To Go To The Game Scene?
Jan 25, 2005
I have a scene for the title screen and a scene for the game itself. On the title screen i have a start button, that when clicked it is supposed to go to the game scene; but for some reason this wont work. This is the code I have so far,
I've created a game that involves 10 questions. Each questionis in its own scene. I've been racking my small brain trying tofind a way to copy the user's score from scene to scene and add (ordeduct) points based on whether the user answers the questioncorrectly or incorrectly.
ive made a button in the scene 1 which i have managed to navigate to scene 2 but when i click the button it goes to scene 2 but displays everthing that is in scene 1 in scene 2, how can sort this out so upon the button click in scene 1 it goes to scene 2 and only display content in scene2.
I'm getting this error in the OUTPUT window, when I PREVIEW (COMMAND + RETURN) my SWF:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label nGallery_btn not found in scene Scene 1. at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop() at BrookBrovazMusic004_fla::MainTimeline/pageSelect()
- The funny thing is that the SWF works the way I want it to. You can view it here: http://brookbrovaz.com
- I just don't like the idea that something's wrong, according to the OUTPUT window anyway.
I believe I'm not alone in this problem but I don't see any answers in any of the forums.I have a movie clip that has a button that I wish to take me and play my first scene at frame 1.I labeled my the 1st frame "startLabel" and my scene is named "mainScene", and that's where I want to go from my "button" that is placed in my "movie clip symbol scene".
I'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
in CS3, and preferably Actionscript 2.0, to make a mouse over a button action that would go to a specific scene and frame, depending on the button? I have 5 buttons, and ould like, on rollover only...no click/down, to have the playhead go to a different scene and start playing from a specific frame #. Or do I have to do the click/down action?
I've in my flash scene main page and sub pages scattered in different ereas at the scene, but the scene start from main page and that what will show only, now if I clicked any link the scene carry us to the link page in the same scene, and from that page I can press any other link to start moving over the scene to different pages.
i have spent several days on this and still can't get it to work. The code below is ok, I am playing a bowling game using the keyboard and timer with a text readout of the elapsed time, the bowl moves a set number of pixels on the screen. whilst in full screen mode I would like to click a start/play button on the screen to start the game and timer again, everything is in frame 1. Also I would like the game to just accept the keycode 77 and keyboard event (2 events only to move the bowl) and then wait for the start/play button click.
My project is almost complete except for this last little thing that's been bugging me. A tutorial I followed had you start the game by clicking a button but I would like to change that to pressing the spacebar starts the game. I tried:
I started off game development on Android about a year ago and want to expand to developing browser games as well. Is flash worth learning? Or should I go for using an engine like Unity and learn game development in c#. Mostly I'm just worried that I would be wasting my time learning flash if I'm not going to get much use from it.
As stated in the title, when played, the game I am creating flashes from Scene 1 to Scene 2 very quickly over and over again. It only has two scenes, and it says that there are no errors. Because it flashes so quickly, it doesn't allow the player to do anything but possibly get a seziure from the constant flashing.
I'm using DirectX to develop a little game, I'm working for a way to play .swf movie in the scene. AFAIK, DirectX doesn't support flash, so I must convert flash into texture sequences. I have thought of two ways by now:
Using Direct Show. Implement a flash source filter and render to textures. But it's too complex for me to complete it.Using the OLE to draw the flash and copy the buffer to textures. But I don't know whether it can work and where to start.
I am making a big big big game, and I came across a huge problem. My game has over 60 unique units, which mean that the library of my .fla file is REALLY huge. Flash just can't handle it anymore, and crashes every 5 min. I can't optimize it(already did) and I can't cut through the content. I think I found a solution: I will load my units from external .swf. Sooo, the thing is, I want to load these swf only once, at the start of the game. Here is how it goes: I divided my units in many packets, and set every unit to be "exported for Actionscript" in the library. This way, ill load the .swf and its library at the beginning of the game and I will be able to attach the units MC over runtime.
I've used one of the hangman source code online and i couldn't get it to work. I want to move from hangman 1.2.1 to hangman 1.2 but i can't do that because the button just won't work. By the way, i'm using adobe flash cs5.URl...this is the original source code.URL...i need some reply asap as my project submission is due 3 days later.

I'm trying to make a scene in a game fadeout by have a movieclip. I have the movieclip and want to put inside the movieclip timeline some actionscript to go to the next frame but the simple
I'm trying to make a game of sorts. I have a button that you need to click that is in the center of the screen. Upon clicking it, it goes to the next scene.What I need here is for the mouse cursor to start in the upper right-hand corner of the stage of the second scene whenever said button is clicked. Not just a movieclip of a cursor, but the actual mouse itself, since it needs to be able to click a button on the other side.Below I've included an example of what needs to be done (not my actual game, but it shows the problem that I'm having. IT IS AN MX2004 FLA FILE.
I'm a student at Drexel University and I just completed a basic platformer for a actionscript class. My professor docked me some points for the game not working until the user actually clicks within the swf. I've heard that this problem is caused on mac osx, but I don't have any concrete evidence to get the points back. Here's a link to the game if you want to check it out.
What resources should I look at to learn how to create a very simple platform game, with a character who can simply jump on platforms and avoid enemies to reach the end of the level? I have made games like this with other languages but never flash.
The game is like Asteroids where four rocks are placed in the corners of the stage at the beginning and then start moving randomly around the stage. The problem is the timer used is started the moment that the flash file starts not the moment the player clicks the start button. So if you are on the start screen for 5 seconds before you click play when the game actually begins the rocks are where they would be after 5 seconds of play, which could be right over the player.
I have a game with multiple levels, which is working as I want it to. I would like to add just one extra bit of functionality. As each level starts, I would like a movieclip to play and then disappear after a second or so. The movieclip will just say "level 1", "level 2" etc, without any interaction. Ideally it will appear as the level loads, and then fade out to disappear.
I'm creating a basic game - snake. I have 2 layers, intro and game. I want the intro to start then you click 'Play' and it goes to game on 2nd frame. However they're both overlapping each other... [URL] How can I get 'game' to start at frame 2? (I've tried deleting frame 1, etc.)
