ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Add 3D Bitmaps To 2D Game
Oct 20, 2009
I wish to add some 3D bitmaps to my 2D game. Everything is currently drawn via copypixels into the only movieclip and that is rendered. Am I correct in that I need to create (for example) a sprite, add a bitmap to it, perform all my 3d transformations and then simply .draw the result into my bitmap? If so are there any simple examples of doing so, also what about camera, focal length, perspective etc. etc. Are they taken into account before the .draw?

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 trying to figure out the best way to compare a single bitmap against perhaps an array of saved bitmaps to see how close of a match it may be to any one of the bitmaps stored in the array. Right now I'm running a for loop that uses the bitmapData.compare() method to try to compare to see how much of a variance there is but... to be honest I'm at a loss as to how to use the resulting data to do so. Does anyone know of any good method to accomplish what I am trying to do? Forget looking at my code it's a waste of time because simply, it's not working.

I am going to develop a very simple game for android and for iphone/ipad I have the option to develop it in cocos2d or in adobe flash air (i am not a developer, but i have 2 developers who are offering me the service)I have a developer that states that cocos2d is better and other one that states that adobe flash air.I want it in cross platform.the cost offered by both developers is the same..i have heard that adobe air has the flaw that it is very slow, is this real? if you had the 2 options which will you use to develop your game and why?

I'm making a game that populates user-designed cards into the game using an external xml file. My main class loads the xml file and then calls to the "Card" class, which wants to use the xml file. I've tried using this.parent and it just gives me a null object reference error. This is what I have so far: Main.as

I have recently started working with Mahjong game. But being not so experienced developer. I am just confuse about many aspects of it. So if anyone could throw some light on it. I have to build the game where there could be different number of tiles on screen. 32, 48, 64 , 80, 96, 112 and so on Now I have questions regarding the levels of blocks in this game. I mean the layouts of the game should be predefined or they should be dynamically created? Also I wanted to know how the surface of enable and disable symbols are created?

I was wondering which method would be the most efficient (run faster)...Lets say I have multiple layering of animations, say a moving sky, then birds, then fireworks ordered respectively. Is better to have one bitmapdata (called BD) then do a copypixel of sky, then bird, then firework at every tick (I'm using a timer) and put it in one bitmap.
Or is it better to have 3 bitmaps (and put into 3 different sprites) with the animations separated, so when I update the birds I don't have to update the sky.share any knowledge on pros or cons of using multiple bitmaps vs using one bitmap in that situation. Aside for the increase of initial memory used.

I'm loading some external images and trying to get them to smooth, but for some reason it's not happening. i've been trying everything i can find on the internet over the past 10 hours or so, and nothing's worked.The code on my movieclip (first frame) is:
[code]...
my images are very high-res, so i know it isn't a resolution issue. anyway, they look crappy when they're sized down too. also, i'm pretty sure smoothing is the issue, because i have a very similar image in the library (a detail from the same shot, and similar resolution, etc.), and it looks great when i allow smoothing in the bitmap properties panel.

I want to know if there is a faster way to take several bitmaps and arrange them one after another in a single layer in a movie clip.
This is how I am doing it currently.
Stage 1: Import the bitmaps to the stage
Stage 2: Distribute the bitmaps to layers
Stage 3: Make the first bitmap a movie clip symbol and cut the other bitmaps' frames
Stage 4: Go into the symbol, create a new layer, and paste the frames.
Stage 5: Click and drag the other frames into one layer, one after the other.
I now have a single movie clip with all my bitmaps ordered one after the other in the timeline.

I have a Bitmap where I can draw on. After some seconds I want to let the drawing fade away and blend over to the original picture/bitmap. Can I do this with the blend mode by drawing the original bitmap on it? I tried something like this and of course it isn't right. Just copying the alpha channel if I get the documentation right.
dstBitmapData.draw(srcBitmap,null,null,BlendMode.ALPHA,null)
dstBitmap = new Bitmap(dstBitmapData);
I want to put some percentage to the destination bitmap. So that after doing this some frames the original picture will be visible. As the user can interrupt this by start drawing again I want to use the BitmapData object dstBitmapData.

I'm working on better performance on mobile device with gpu rendering set to on. I use only bitmaps for animations, but I have some doubts:
1. If my content is poor bitmap (jpg or png file) should I cache its container as bitmap?
2. Shoud I use cacheAsBitmapMatrix for my bitmaps to have smoother animations or poor bitmaps are already optimized?

I have a jpeg that I have exported to actionscript via the library. The jpeg class is "adcouncil". If I want to add it to the stage I would use the following code:
Code:
var adcouncil = new adcouncil1(150,150);
var myImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap(adcouncil)
printMC.addChild(myImage);
The problem is that I want to ad these Bitmaps to the stage dynamically. My first instinct is:
Code:
var adcouncil = new this["adcouncil1"](150,150);
var myImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap(adcouncil)
printMC.addChild(myImage);

Trying to add EventListeners to Bitmaps.Can I add an EventListener directly to a bitmap?If I load an image to a UILoader then addEventListener to the UILoader instance that works just fine, but if I use a Bitmap instead, nada...I could load the Bitmap into a Sprite and add the EventListener to that, but would prefer the direct method...

Sometimes I have a problem publishing to an xfl file. The bitmaps in the library do not save with the xfl save to the LIBRARY folder. I've tried resaving as another .fla before re-exporting as an xfl. but I do not seem to find the proper way to overcome this?

im trying to create a tamagotchi game type game. For some reason i can not add any items to the stage.Currently i have imported 2 png images to the stage and coverted them to movie clips. One is called TamagotchiCharacter and the other is called Beer. I have also created a new 2 AS3.0 script class called TamagotchiGame and DraggableItem. The following is TamagotchiGame:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class TamagotchiGame extends MovieClip {
[code]....
I have assigned the above code as the BaseClass of the Beer symbol, this has allowed the beer to become draggable and droppable etc.when i run the program nothing happens, i just get a blank white screen.

It's about the "Game Character Dialogues", It is used to instruct the user what to do, like what you see in BookWorm or Diner DAsh.I used dynamic text fields to generate these dialogues,but as I continued doing it. I found myself stuck.I have no idea on how to change the words when the "next" button is clicked. there will be no previous button. but the dialogue will replay when the character is clicked.

Is there a way to get this code to work? It's meant to count the seconds passed while playing the game and gives a bonus multiplier to the current score when the game ends. I don't know how to get the returned value to combine it into the multiplier int variable. Is there any way to get this code to work or is it completely wrong?

I'm having an issue where after 24 bitmaps are placed inside a sprite, the first bitmaps start to disappear. When the last added Bitmaps get removed from the display list, the older ones start to reappear. Go here and check it out: http:[url].... draw 24 dots or whatever with the pencil tool (the only one that draws to a bitmap). You should notice that the 24th dot will cause the 1st one to disappear. Undoing (which simple removes the top bitmap/sprite) causes the 24th one to be removed (which is correct) but the 1st one also reappears which means its still there just not visible .Here are the relevant methods:
Code:
private function nextShape() : void {
newShape = new Sprite();
newShape.mouseEnabled = false;[code].....

I'm confused by a tip in Adobe's own documentation that says:Avoid using gradients, because they require many colors and calculations to be processed, which is more difficult for a computer processor to render.I understand how this would be true in a vector shape fill, but they aren't specifying vector. It seems to be implied they include bitmaps too, since the next couple tips are bitmap related.If they do in fact include bitmaps in this tip, can someone explain to me how this is possibly true? In a bitmap a pixel is a pixel. I don't see how it matter that the pixels form a gradiated color or not, the software still has to read and write each pixel regardless.

I would like to have a SWC file with many bitmaps stored in it, which can the be called and loaded dynamically when they are needed.The SWC has been made, with the Bitmaps set to export.In my main class I am running into trouble trying to access these classes.Different sources are offering different advice, could someone advise the best way to gain access to these classes within the SWC, and the best way to access the SWC from within my file.URL]they offer a solution which involves having to statically name the classes at runtime (these arent exported bitmapdata classes but same idea)this second link is a person describing a solution to the problem described in the first link. His solution involves what appear to be either flex or command line compiler directives

I'm working on a flash website that consists of 3 frames (1 = preloader, 2 = instances of symbols, 3 = the main page/view). I've gone through and optimized all my static bitmaps/movieClips and removed any symbol that I've exported for ActionScript from exporting in the first frame. Even after all these steps frame one is still the longest to load (797kb on a 32.6 kbps simulated download), only showing the preloader when the whole file is at 86% complete. Any further steps to take to get frame one's size down?
