I am trying to embed a swf file, that came with images in folders, on a website. I don't have the original flash file. It works when I upload the file: [URL]
When I embed this code in our website, I get error message about the images.

<embed src="http://www.canadianart.ca/microsites/flashfiles/mullin/mullin_combo_lowres.swf" width="448" height="480" allowFullScreen="true">

Is there a way to do something without the original flash file?

I would like to know if I have to dispose an image in AS3/Flex when using the EMBED-tag[code]...
When I addChild this class and remove it via removeChild, do I have to dispose this or is this unnecessary? I just ask because it uses the Bitmap-class and under normal circumstances you have to dispose it for the garbage collector.
Or is there another way to embed images without the Bitmap class? I just ask because I'm new to Flex and have problems embedding my stuff into my game.

Since I want a loading progress for several images together I want to embed images into one swf.
How do I embed images so that they are included in the swf?
I'm searching high and low for a solution how to embed small 16x16 Icon Images into htmlText! Has anybody an idea where I could find something on the net about that item ??? Found this, but can't get it to work at all.

I have about 90 images which I need to embed into action script (version 3). The only way I could figure out is typing the following code 90 times for each image.
[Embed(source="images/door0091.bmp")]
private var Door1:Class;
var door1:Bitmap = new Door1();
It's really painful to write it so many times. I would like to know if there is any way to do it programatically?
I cannot use the loader method as the images need to be present along with the swf file. I want the swf to be independent once it is compiled.
I would like to know what is the more practical way to embed many images using actionscript. Firstly, I don't want to download an image every time from the server, and then I would like to change the number of images and/or their names. What do you propose for these requirements? I have been alerted for the Embed tag but it seems a little inconvenient in its use as you have to declare a new class for each asset and instantiate the class separately.
View 2 RepliesI am putting together a Flash game (using Flixel) and I have a lot of sprites whose images (.png format, mostly) I need to include in my game. I'm used to using code like:[Embed(source = "../../lib/ship-0001.png")]private var _ship0001Sprite:Class;in order to include an image file. Is there a way I can do this other than embed? I'd like to use a for loop if possible, grabbing every needed file by number. This way instead if having several lines for each ship type (to grab its sprite, icon, store view, etc), I can just change a variable (eg NUM_SHIP_TYPES) and add the files by number for the new ship.?

I have an image of type '.bmp' (NOT jpeg or png). I am trying to embed it using the following code.
[Embed(source="images/door0091.bmp")]
private var door0091_class:Class;
private var door91:Bitmap = new door0091_class();
On compiling, the code throws following error.
'door0091.bmp' does not have a recognized extension, and a mimeType was not provided Unable to transcode door0091.bmp.
To overcome that I tried to give a 'mimeType' which is giving a type coercion error during runtime:
[Embed(source="images/door0091.bmp", mimeType = 'application/octet-stream')]
private var door0091_class:Class;
private var door91:Bitmap = new door0091_class();
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert DoorImages_door0091_class@3891e041 to flash.display.Bitmap.
I've searched in the google, but I am not able to find the correct answer.
I don't want to convert the image type(bmp) to jpeg or png.

I'm using image embedding in Flex 4 (the same goes with Flex 3). [code]...
When i run the application i see the icon but in Flash(Flex) Builder i can't see the images while working in Design mode. Is there any way to enable image visualization in Flash Builder design mode ? or a better way to include resources.
i am trying to load vars from a text file into a load vars object.
var kitchentext = new LoadVars();
kitchentext.load('moccastext.txt');
Once in the object, i thought i could reference them like so
kitchentext.name
kitchentext.style
but i am having trouble doing this.
i have a textbox called displytext.
_root.displaytext.text = kitchentext.name;
doesnt work
We have a flex application which compiles fine on windows box using mxmlc ant task but when we try to run the same build scripts on linux, it throws the 'Invalid Embed directive in stylesheet' error indicating it is not able to resolve the path to the image files.
Can someone pls. educate me on if there is a difference in the way the image files are looked up, in a CSS file, on windows vs linux.
Flex sdk version is 3.3. The same sdk is used on both windows and linux. Not sure if this has been fixed by any future 3.x sdks.
Making a piano/keyboard application and trying to figure out the best way to set this up .I plan on having a directory of sounds for each 'instrument' in my assets folder (piano1/C4.mp3,piano1/D4.mpg,...)Is there a way to import/embed all of these as an array? Also is there a way I can pass a variable to this class to indicate which folder I want to import these from? Something that would be ideal
var type = "piano2"; //passed from class being called by
foreach(notes as note){
[Embed(source = 'assets/sounds/'+type +'/'+note+'.mp3')] private const C3:Class;
public var c3:Sfx = new Sfx(C3);
}
Or would it be a better idea to have a class for each of these "types" that pulls all notes?
I am using the following line before my class declaration .
[Embed(source="C:WINDOWSFontsVERDANA.TTF", fontName="VERDANA", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype", flashType = true)]
But there is no change in the appearance of the Text whatsoever.. I need the text to be crisp and clear.Just like the way it looks when we embed the fonts using the Embed... Button in the Flash IDE.
I'm creating a wrapper SWF that needs to embed multiple swf's using the [Embed ] tag in Actionscript 3.How can i embed a custom swf when compiling a as3 project using the flex sdk, E.G:
[Embed(source="/MySWF1.swf", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
However i want to specify the 'source' location at compile time.How can i do this?
I've been experimenting with learning game coding and have encountered an issue I'm curious about...
At the moment I have 3 GIFs and 1 sound effect being used, with more to come. Now, is it more recommended to embed these files, which I'm been doing, or is it better to load them externally? To be honest, I really hate the idea of having to load them and would much prefer to embed them directly in to my project. What is the general consensus as to which technique is better?
Is there any solution to dynamic fonts yet. I have tried to write classes and followed so much stuff on various blogs but none of them is working. For example, i'm using a font(which is not installed in most machines) say "abc" on my Input and other TextFields/Combos/Radio etc. Now no matter whatever i do, it uses some default font instead of "abc" if accessed from a PC in which this font isn't installed.
One (bad)solution is to embed fonts using the Embed button in "Properties" FOR EACH TEXT FIELd seperately and increase the file size? Still this way wouldn't work for Combos and radio Btns.
I'm building a little application in AS3 but I need to get variables from PHP. I searched on the internet on how I should do that. It makes the connection, but it doesn't get the variables. It just prints whole my php script.

I think this should not be a big deal, but I do not get it to work. I got a "MainFlash" witch loades an XML with about 60 variables (Settings), in base of a paramater then this "MainFlash" loades another "FlashMovie" and this one needs, all, the same Variables too.
How do I properly pass all the Vars in the new/other "FlashMovie"?
U need to know I use LoadMovieNum to Level 0 I do replace the "MainFlash", cause the new loaded "FlashMovie" can have a completly different height and width ( ...I don't think it's possible to change the Document-Setting in a compiled swf, or is it? If this is possible I would not need to load a separate swf to Level 0. the main SWF usually ist about 320x180, the following can be 2x, 3x bigger...
var navChildXml:XML = <subpoint>
<text>XML(_nodes[prop].childNodes[inc].title)</text>
<link>XML(_nodes[prop].childNodes[inc].title)</link>
</subpoint>;
how to in this instance
the vars are not being declared
I've created a Flash interface that sends variables to PHP to place in MySQL.In Flash I have the following AS2 (abbreviated) ..
myVars=new LoadVars();
submit_btn.onRelease=function() {
myVars.username=_root.username;[code]..........
Invariably the else statement is deployed and a new record is inserted into the database even when the username and passwords (md5 encrypted) are identical. I've been on PHP forums and nobody has a solution, so I'm wondering if this is a Flash issue. Perhaps even though the username and password in MySQL 'appear' identical to what's submitted by Flash and md5 encrypted they're really not for some reason. I tried trim() and stripslashes() to no avail.
I have set something up for my flashvars. I have a form in html which accepts two inputs. This is then sent to this php page

how can I do this trick and keep different vars for each mc?

var mc[i] = _root.createEmptyMovieClip('mc'+i, _root.getNextHighestDepth());}
i have two swf files, a preloader witch loads main.swf
in preloader on the maintimeline i set this var
var lang:String = "de";
but i cant trace it in my main.swf
trace(root.lang);
how do i get this var?
this should be simple as nothing but i just need to get a clearer picture here my PHP has this as final line

where $newPics is a number what do I insert in AS code to to retrieve that variable and store it as an AS variable?
I've surfed for days to find a solution to this. There are a jillion out there, but I haven't found one that works. Suppose I have the following
<?php
header('location:http://www.sleepydad.com?firstName=s...ame=dad');
// the above URL will house my Flash movie
?>
I need to get the values of firstName and lastName into my Flash movie to save as variables (ultimately LoadVars()) and pass as an ID for some MySQL tasks performed in my Flash movie. NOTE the value of the names are not constant (ie sleepy dad). They will change with login - each user having a unique name. I've tried modifying the javascript in my HTML - some.swf?firstName=firstName (in both Object & Embed Tags)
