I am a teacher on a primary school and am trying to make a game for my students.I want the student type letters and the computer tells them which letter they've pressed.
Every letter from the alphabet I spoke and saved in my computer.At this site [URL]I've found an actionscriptcode. Now I want to change the code so the computer links the letters to my audiofiles.
I have recently made a piano in CS3 using AS2. The basic idea is that you can both click on a piano key and click on a key on your keyboard to hear the sound that particular key makes.Everything works just dandy apart from the fact that the sound doesn't seem to work at all.Below I have posted the action script (the comments are in Dutch) perhaps you'll need the FLA file as well.
Code:
stop();
//Maakt een sound object en verbind het met de piano movie clip op de stage

I've got an inputfield.OnChange Event Handler.When someone types a letter, i want the letter to become 0, then 1, then 2, and so on until 9 and then i want the letter to be there.And when they click on another letter, same effect happens.so at the end if i typed, "testing", each letter scrolls 0-9 like a roll dial and settles on the letter typed.What i've managed to do is make it work, but if i type at normal speed and not slow, i end up getting something like: t32t43g
View 3 RepliesI have a combo box that I'm trying to enter a letter for to search values for that particular letter and I keep getting this error. Every other combo box works fine when a key is pressed so I'm not sure why this particular combo box registers an error. The complete error looks like this:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

View 15 RepliesIn many RPG games, messages appear in textboxes letter by letter (usually accompanied by a repetitive beeping). I've been trying to simulate this in Flash for a game I've been working on in AS2. When it comes to programming, I'm fairly new and so far, the best I've got is this:
var num:Number = 0;
var s:String = "This message will appear.";

While creating an application, I ran into a unique question. I did some research and understand KeyboardEvent and MouseEvent separately, but how would I code them to be dependent on each other?
Let's say I have a button. When you click this button, a number in a dynamic textbox will increment. If you were to be holding Ctrl, however, the number would decrement.
From time to time the letter keys in my flash player stop working. They work ONLY if I hold down CTRL at the same time. It's really annoying, because some flash content I like to use requires typing, and this weirdness doesn't change if I restart the browser or the computer altogether. It is some general setting too, because when this happens NONE of the flash windows will take any letters.
View 3 RepliesLetter spacing doesn't seen to work for dynamic text fields in Flash. I use CS4 on Mac, player version 10.0.2. Does it also depend on the font that's used?
View 1 RepliesI would like to know if there is a way to get flash only to look at the first letter not just the whole text that has been tipped in. The script i currently use:
on (release) {
if (text_box.text.indexOf("a")!= -1) {
_root.gotoAndStop(2);[code]....
My question: How to get the script only to look at the first letter (in this case, if its "a" or not) and then react, because as of now(obious when looking at the script hehe)it will go to frame 2 whenever theres an "a" in the whole word?
I have a textbox on the stage where its letter spacing is set to 4. When I change the textbox content with code the letter spacing goes back to 0.
So is there a way to lock the text spacing or do I have to create a textformat and keep resetting the text spacing?
Is there an existing javascript library for relaying key press events in the browser (or certain divs) into flash? I am hoping there might be a library kind of like this one for mousewheel events?Something like this handles javascript keyboard shortcuts great. I suppose I could just listen for those events and pass the ones I want into flash?These are great examples, however, if flash has focus, then javascript keystrokes are lost. How can you ensure that all key events go through javascript?
View 4 RepliesWhat i want to do is to allow a user to input a time of when the alarm should sound. However, when i press like "2" or any number i get "22" instead of just "2".Also, is there a way to stop people from entering letters along with this piece of code?[code]
View 4 RepliesThree simple things that i wanna know...
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
What would i put instead of UP if i wanted say the letter 'a' to be the button?
and
What would i put if i wanted a button when pressed to refresh the game or page...
one more thing...im making a simple race car game and i wanna make it so when it passes the start line it adds 1 to the score...how can i do this...
ive got _root.score += 1; to show the score but how would i make it so when the car moves over a certain co-ordinate or something...the score would rise one...would i be able to put some MC as the start line and have it so when it passes over that MC it would add 1 to the score
I'm using CS4 Professional with ActionScript 2.0.I'm working with a movie that contains 23 Tab keypress interactions, each of which uses this code (with each one navigating to a different frame number):

is it possible to count how many times a letter is contained inside a string in as3 and return the value to some variable
View 4 RepliesI'm using Flash CS4 and AS 3.0
I'm trying to add a login for running my flash movie. When the user clicks the login button, the text of the password field is authenticated, which allows gotoAndPlay(2) .
But the problem is both in my .swf and my projector .exe i can easily jump the login frame by pressing Ctrl+Enter .
Is there any AS3 library or code-snippet that can create altered versions of a Sound object on-the-fly (at runtime)? Either based on:
An existing Sound object; A ByteArray object;
For example, say you have a "dry" sound of a gun-shot. You could:

I have a project that requires me to display the waveform for a uploaded sound. The sound is always an MP3, most of the time 22.05 kHz mono, with speech only. The project are written with Flex/ActionScript 3. It's meant to run in the browser, but might also consider converting to AIR if that can help.
All examples I've found and looked at for generating a wave, are either doing some visualization in real time as the sound is playing, or, the most promising, as3soundeditorlib, keeps the wave already generated, but does it very slowly, seemingly using as long time as playing through the audio would've taken.Is there any way to generate the wave faster than real time?
I have some sounds in my library. They are all exported and have been given class names like C, D, E etc. I have another class that represents a button. This class stores a reference to one of the Sound in my library. I set the type for this variable to Sound. When I try to set it I get the error: cannot convert C$ to flash.media.Sound I try as Sound, for example key.note = note_array[p] as Sound; The value ends up as null.
View 2 RepliesIt appears my sound is off sync and the longer I play the movieclip, the farther off sync it goes. Its nothing too complicated, just some basic shooting sounds that fire every time I hit the space bar. My code is below:
package com.objects{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.media.SoundChannel;[code]....
The Attack() method gets called from another class that handles all keyboard controls.when it gets called the sound then plays.firesound and firesound2 are almost the same. firesound2 sounds a little off pitch to make it sound more realistic.At first the sound sounds pretty good, not great. but then it gets terrible as time passes.
I made a new .fla project. and I attached the following class to it by it self. so the following is the only code in the entire .fla project and the issue still occurs. I press the spacebar and the sound starts a day late.
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.*;[code]......
I'm trying to play a sound using a technique found here (play the sound by sampling raw sound data gathered from the original with extract()), with the difference that the mp3 sound is embedded in the swf, not loaded externally. This is my code:
var soundBytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
var mp3sound:Sound = Sound(new Sound1_design()); // this is the embedded sound
mp3sound.extract(soundBytes, int.MAX_VALUE);
[Code]....
This works, in a way, except that the resulting sound is distorted (it has a kind of a metallic ring).
Is it possible to take two Sound objects and combine them into one Sound object so that one Sound plays, and then the second plays right after it? I can just play the first Sound and then the next right after it, but it would be much cleaner to combine them before playing the audio.
View 1 RepliesI am triggering short sounds dynamically from the library for a game (Specifically Air for Android). When the user clicks a button the sound can take up to 600ms to actually play. I have set it for any silence before the actual sound by calling the sound like so:

All return the same results. I know there are threads here that talk about this but none have offered a real solution that I can find. Is there no way to cache the sound or store it in a buffer?
What I'd like it to do is find out what key was last pressed and then based on which key it was, go to a specific frame of guy_mc. So basically if the left key was the last key press I want it to go to frame "Left", if right key was the last, go to frame "Right," etc. I'm completely lost on this one and every tutorial I come across is based in AS2 which has much simpler methods than AS3.
Code:
//listen for guy_mc to see if all keys are up
guy_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, allKeys);
//if all keys are up...
[code]....
What I'm trying to do seems really simple but I can't get it. I'm trying to do something like this, but keyRelease doesn't exist I think.
on (keyRelease "<Right>") {
nextFrame();
}
I just want it to go to the next frame on the time line when the right key is RELEASED.
I've made a popup div that shows a video if you press a button. If you press Esc, the div is hidden again and the video is removed. (Using JWPlayer in Flash.)
If you click on the JWPlayer video, Flash gets the focus and JavaScript can't listen for keypresses on the document anymore. Is it possible to make JavaScript get the focus after you've interacted with the JWPlayer video player, so that you can still press the Esc button after for example pausing the video?
I was just wondering what the difference between these two is.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on the timeline and have movieclips on each frame. Each movieclip should play completely before moving to next frame. Once the movieclip is completed playing, I'd like to set up a keyboard event that allows for movie to go to next frame onKeyUp.This is the code I have but it's not working ... I'm getting jumbled results. I know this should be simple enough, but oh well.
