ActionScript 3.0 :: Buttons Not Loading Game Or Exiting?
Jan 21, 2012
started programming the menus for the game im working on. Everything shows up ok so far but when i select the buttons rather than it loading the next part, its going to a black screen? Does anyone have any suggestions? My code for the MainMenu is as follows:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....
Then the "game" is another class which is loaded when you select to play the game.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, i have images loaded that are converted to movieclips and named the same as the class so that they display as the background. The main menu image works fine, just not the game background.

When game page loading , the flash game itself does not appear ( just white area as the holder of the flash game) untill the game almost finish downloading, then it appears .. This long waiting with just white area makes visitors leave, thinking there was nothing there.

if there is a type of eventlistener that listens when externally loaded swf moves from frame 1 to frame 2? (or from frame 4 to frame 5 etc) SWF is loaded with url-loader and it stops at frame 1.Theres a "to the next frame" button inside content-SWF. When user pushes it,swf jumps one frame ahead. I cannot alter that content SWF anyhow, so I should use some kind of event listener that reacts when frame changes in loaded SWF.

I load an external swf file (a music player) in a certain frame but need to figure out how to remove it when the user navigates to a different section. I've googled it and checked out the rest of the forum but having a hard time finding a specific code I can directly insert, I'm still not too code oriented and wouldn't know how to write it out even if given the proper terms. I feel as if it should be something as simple as:[code]But I don't know AS3 so I ultimately have no clue.

Is it possible for a flash program to know when it is closed when embedded in a webpage?asically I have some variables which get updated whilst the user is navigating around my program, and I want that once they have left, those variables are saved. I'm only looking to save a set of variables, which is likely to be a small 10~ item array or a series of text variables, but what I really want is the variables that are saved to be accurate when they leave

I have a need to have a section in an app I am creating where I have imported an external (print2flash)SWF into my main SWF timeline. When the button is pushed, it moves to a new frame on the main timeline. Problem is, when I forward to the next frame, the SWF stays on any future frame I go to. In essence I need to clear what was imported when I leave one frame and enter another.
This is the code I am using to import the print2flash SWF
import Print2Flash.* stage.scaleMode=StageScaleMode.NO_SCALEstage.align=StageAlign.TOP_LEFT var P2FDocLoader:Print2FlashDoc3=new Print2FlashDoc3("modules/FlashDoc.swf",300,120,650,520,this)P2FDocLoader.addEventListener(Print2FlashDoc3.ONLOADEVENT, OnLoaded);
var P2FDoc:MovieClipvar totalPages:Number=0
function OnLoaded(e:Event) {
P2FDoc=P2FDocLoader.getDoc()}
Is there away to add on on leave frame unload function?

I upload my flex client-side swf app to some website that loads different swf's on it's site. So you see your application floating in that website. My app is Flex swf app and has onCreationComplete() that starts the flow of logic. Now I want to do cleanup state and save state in a shared object when the application unloads (or probably exiting event, or closing event..) So do we have any function that I can implement and the flash platform automatically calls that function when the swf is unloading/closing/exiting?? (just like the onCreationComplet() function)

I have written a basic chat client that talks to an XML Socket server. When it starts it connects to the socket and works fine. However, when I close the Flash Player it is still occupying a connection to the server. I am trying to determine how I can trap the close of the Flash Player and programmatically close the connection to the server before the program exits.

I have searched countless forums (here and other sites) and still have yet to find the solution I am looking for (hopefully it exists).I have an flv file being loaded by the flv playback component. It all works except that the video (and audio) continues to play even after navigating away from the frame on which the component instance is located.I have found a solution that stops the audio by using: SoundMixer.stopAll();But the video is still streaming and affects the site's performance.I want to stop both the audio and video, which means using: playbackInstance.stop();However, all the solutions I have come across basically say to add the stop function to all buttons that could potentially navigate from the frame with the playback instance.
This seems completely tedious and bulky, particularly because I have navigation buttons visible from my "main swf" and the MULTIPLE playback instances I have are located inside a loaded swf with its own navigation as well. By nature of design, the playback instances will not always be on the stage so calling references will undoubtedly throw errors. Of course, there are ways to do all of this with conditional statements, etc. But it just seems like a waste of time.

I've got a timeline of events going on with about a dozen frames and about a dozen buttons. Clicking on each button will take you to a different frame. Simple enough. I have no problem with fading the specific frames in (I make the whole content of the frame a movie clip, then tween the alpha programatically as soon as you enter that frame). The issue I have is fading it out, so when you click on another button, that content on the current frame fades out and then you jump to a separate labeled frame, where the new content fades in).

I've created an andriod app in flash and need it to exit when the user clicks the home button. I found the following actionscript 3 online
// Check if we are on a Android / iPhoney device.if(Capabilities.cpuArchitecture=="ARM"){ NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(Event.ACTIVATE, handleActivate, false, 0, true); NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(Event.DEACTIVATE , handleDeactivate, false, 0, true);
[code]....
However I'm getting errors at lines starting with "private function handle" saying "The private attribute may be used only on class property definitions."

I am working on a flash game, that will be distributed as and EXE file. I would very much like the game to run full screen, which is not a problem, but I am struggling with replacing flash default behavior when escape is pressed. When escape is pressed I would like to display a custom menu asking the user if they want to exit the game or continue playing, not just exit full screen more.

storing ResultEvent data from a webservice request to a variable. Each time I exit my function "getSIHandler" the global ArrayCollection variable seems to reset to null.Here's the code:
Code:
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import mx.controls.Alert;
import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent;[code]....
Each time I call getData() from a Flex component and try to access an item, I receive a #1009 null reference error.

First,I have a menu screen for my game, but for some reason the buttons remain during the game (not visible), I think I need to use swapDepths but I'm not sure. Second, I need to make a restart button from the Game Over screen but I'm not sure of the coding I need to use,would using something like this work?
Code:
on (release){
_root.gotoandPlay ("Menu");
}
or would that only work in replaying a movie?

I am making a game for the university I attend. I am having students choose between college and high school by two buttons to see if they choose the correct answer. Then I want it to display the number correct on a result page I will have them print out for the instructor of their freshman seminar class.Can flash remember if a specific button was clicked? I have each button with a unique name and could it tell which one was clicked to help me figure out results?
Otherwise, I was wondering if there was a way I could have flash keep track of "points" so I can display the number correct. Would it be possible if I gave each button a numeric value and somehow added up the numbers from each button to put over a total score of 12 (that's how many questions there are)? Could it be done in a dynamic text field?

We have an applicaiton using AS3 that we run in FlashPlayer 9 and 10 (swf embeded in html). The applciaiton is designed to collect information from an applicant/prospective student. When the user clicks the exit button we show a modal dialog (using the Alert class) with Yes and No.When the user confirms the exit we set display controls,application controls, data displays,campus selection,sub applications to null and unload modules and reinitialize the application before sending a comand to the web browser to reload(usinf the ExternalInterface class). Ideally this will bring the user to the welcome/login page without having any artifacts from their prior flash session.I am having issues with two dfferent things
- When the user clicks yes or no, the applicaiton delays closing the alert modal for about two seconds.
- The applicaiton flickers before reloading.

I've made a flash application using actionscript 3, I wanted this application size to be dynamic, To be able to embed it in any size and let it adjust itself accordingly. I managed to accomplish this, theres a problem though: The original width of the application is 700 pixels. I'm embedding the flash in a smaller size, (400 for example) going to full screen, and when I exit, the application sets itself back to being 700 pixels wide, and isn't adjusting itself to the 400px width of the actual embedding area..

I am trying to load a flash game in flex but the game does not work the same as it does in the flash player. The game was made using AS2 but I read somewhere that is should play without errors, that is not the case. Played normally the guns shoot the enemies no problem but in flex the bullets just float around the enemies never hitting them. It is hard to describe what is happening so I also included a link with the flex 3 project file that has all of the files.
Here is what I am using for my flex 3 code.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="[URL]" layout="vertical"
creationComplete="init()">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private function init():void{
[Code] .....
So is there a way to just play the swf file without messing up the game?

I have 2 questions regarding bitmaps. Say I'm loaing graphics from a game off a server into a .swf file:
1) Which format is the best to use - gif, jpeg,png? (for non transparent images)
2) When a user plays a .swf movie it gets saved to their browser cache and its loaded the next time they access the same file, but when your externally loading images does flash have to re-download all the images or is it all stored in the browser cache?

I'm currently having a problem with preloading. What I have is:
1. Preloader -> an SWF preloader, made in Adobe Flash CS5
2. GUI -> an SWF file containing the user interface, made in Adobe Flash CS5
3. Game -> an SWF containing actual game logic, made in Flash Develop
The preloader SWF should preload both GUI and Game. I can do this, no problem. The problem however is: I need to be able to control the GUI from the Game. So how can I access the GUI from the Game? In particular the main movieclip in the GUI which contains every interface screen. How can a script inside a SWF communicate with another SWF (all in the same file)?

I load a game on click of a button in level1. When I click on some other button I load another swf in level10 & unload the game in level1. When I click the game button I load it again. The problem is: when the game is loaded first time it works fine but in subsequent attempt it behaves erratically. I am using time interval functions a lot of places in the code which moves the thngs on the screen. When I load the movie again after clicking on some other button, the things start moving on its own...

In the game I am creating, I don't want to import the images directly to flash, otherwise the game will be well over 10MB and that is not a good thingamajiggy So, I am loading them in from a folder residing in the same directory as the SWF.Question - Even if a 56k user plays the game, they shouldn't have a problem receiving the files pretty quickly, considering the image folder with the 8MB+ images is in the same directory, right?

I know this has probably asked a lot before, but I tried searching some and couldn't find it.
When I make a loading bar it won't show up until the whole game's loaded.

I have built this AS2 game that uses quite a few classes and library symbols.It works fine the first time you play the swf. But if you try to do the whole ctrl + ENTER in the Flash IDE, it doesn't seem to load any of the assets that are dynamically attached to the stage.This also happens if you have another swf use loadMovie to load it.I have all the dynamically attached symbols assigned with the linkage and set to export on the firstFrame. There is an include .as file on the first frame of the fla.

I'm making this game with complex visual effects (some rendered lighting using bitmaps), so it takes about 1 second or so generating a level with 3 big lights, so it may take a little more using more lights. The map is built when the player clicks to play the level. The thing is I can't show him the game is busy processing the level elements, because the graphic elements won't refresh until the start level function returns, which would make some sort of info sign while the map is loading useless. How would I make it so this information is visible right after I click Start level and disappear as soon as the level is built? I'm assuming the event handler from clicking Start level has to return before the level starts loading, but how can I schedule the game for loading?
