ActionScript 3.0 :: Interesting - Looking For Answers?
Sep 21, 2009
I've created an entire website from one .swf. No dynamic loading of other .swfs, or external content etc. Simply a few different buttons that navigate to different frame-labeled areas of the .swf via gotoAndPlay, etc. There are 8 different "areas" of the timeline to go to, each with it's own set of movie clips for that area.
As far as I know, the website works great on all computers and browsers with current Flash players. But I got a call from one of the owners of the business I created the site for and he's having an interesting problem: The preloader completes and takes him to the first area. He can see areas 1-4 just perfect. But when he click to go to area 5, less than half of the movie clips load in what seems to be a random order and then the rest of the .swf (beyond that point in the timeline) can't be accessed at all.
This could be common, but as far as I know, I've never heard of it. He's had someone at his site who is apparently "fluent in computer" look over his internet settings and cannot find any issues.
Anyone ever heard of this or know what I should suggest he try besides updating his browser and Flash Player?.
I've got an input field called "question" where you can type whatever you want, an ASK button called "ask" and a response field called "answer". Once you enter a question and hit the ASK button I want flash to randomly reply in the "answer" field with YES, NO, MAYBE, DEFINATELY etc.
Do I need some kind of answers array to store all the answers and then call them at random into the "answers" field? Am I on the right track?
I was at a website (link from my son's baseball group: Coach Wooden and saw an effect that I couldn't figure out how they did it. It's the "gleam" on the text that runs about every 5 or so seconds.You'll have to enter the site to see it.Just right off hand, it looks like the text is a mask, and it has a tween or .x motion applied.
Well I'm creating a small image gallery of thumbnails and am looking for interesting effects when the big pic loads. I'm sick of just fading in images with the alpha setting and need some inspiration. I've done a google search but it revealed nothing of any use.
Do you know of any tutorials for this or fla downloads?
Last week I had posted about getting a bit of clarification on dynamic tabs, as seen in this thread: [URL] The next step has my head spinning a bit. Here's the setup: This is a slideshow viewer, ala PowerPoint. Images are pulled in from an external directory via an array. Dynamic tabs are also generated in an array. Right now the demo has 10 images in the first array and 6 tabs in the second array:
[Code]...
now, some of the images will be part of a range - as in maybe the first three would fall under the "Safety" tab, next two under "Efficacy", etc....so when a viewer clicks on a tab the player loads up the first photo in that sequence. So: User clicks tab "X", this compares "X" with the range of images associated to "X" and loads the first in the sequence. Now, to add in more fun, there's a next and back button. So now if someone hits the next button then they should view sequentially the next image in the "X" image array (or sub-array). and the reverse for the back button. so my first thought is that I'd need to have the AS compare Safety with the imageList Array - something like
I was recently given the task of creating the webpage for my school's physics department. I want to recreate a textbook where you would actually have to flip the page to get to the next section. While searching the net, I found exactly what I was looking for.

How on earth can I recreate that effect? I know it has somethning to do with rotations and dragging a mask with the mouse but how?
This is a test program to measure the time it takes Flash to draw a triangle 10,000 times.
The app (code below) calls runTimeTest() every N seconds which draws the triangle 10,000 times.
Now for the "interesting" part: each call takes increasingly more processor until after about the 6th or 7th call it goes to "infinity" (see screen shot of TaskManager)
I'm trying to create a simple quiz that picks questions from an XML file, then checks the answer the user enters against the answers stored in the same XML file. Every time you press blue_btn it should bring up a new question. Right now I'm stuck -- it shows only the last question in the XML file, when I enter the right answer it tells me it's wrong, and when I press blue_btn again nothing happens.
I have a project that i want to make which is a Multiple choice game containing questions and the answers is four pictures when you click on the right answer you move to next question when your are wrong a wrong sign appears i have zero knowladge about flash but i thought this is similar to Geo Challenge in facebook ,,Right ?? what software to download ? any tutorials online ?
I have a flash quiz that I created. The file is an external swf loaded on top of another flash swf. The quiz is all radial buttons and drop down menus. Once the user choose which answer they feel is correct they click submit. Before they click submit they have an option to close the window. What i want to happen is if they close that window and return I want those selected answers to remain or even if they submitted before; i would like for those answers to remain.
flash and I am trying to multiply two numbers where one is a decimal The result are answers with one, two and three decimal places depending upon the numbers being multiplied.
I'm doing this project for a school competition, I'm nearly done but I'm having some XML trouble. I have a custom quiz, which is an external swf loaded into another swf on a certain button click. The Questions from the quiz always loads properly, but the answers only load the first time the swf is opened. Every other time, the "Answer Placeholder" text shows up instead. This can be seen at [URL], scroll over the arrows on the side of the page, and then click on "Quiz". It may work the first time, but after a page refresh, just the placeholders again.
my question is to count how many correct answer the user will enter. if the user enter the same correct answer twice,the 2 same answers will not be count and the other 2 answer will be check whether correct or wrong. If the next 2 answer is correct markk will be add. Take note that i have 5 answers for this question but the user only has to enter 4 of the answers only.
I'm making 8 input boxes with 8 different answers. Users can key in their answers in the input boxes. The order of the 8 answers will not affect their results. However when users get the wrong answers, the wrong answers will be deleted. My question here is, when the wrong answers are deleted automatically, how do i make the correct answers to appear by themselves after 5 seconds? Below is my code that i put on a "check answer" button.
on(release) { answers = new Array(8); answers[0] = "professional selling";[code].....
I have sections with questions and answers which I can get. But, I need to save each section into new array and tally all the final scores.The screen will show the section score of current section that was just completed and the final score.I know the code has lots of problems - attached.For the total scores the dynamic text boxes var's are totalnumcorrect, totalnumIncorrect, totaluserScore.For the section score the dynamic text boxes var's are numcorrect, totalnumIncorrect, totaluserScore.
I have this project where I have a quiz template that I am using(as2) and I have everything exactly the way I want it except.that I need for the individual questions to hold a different value from one another.
for example
Question 1 = 10 points Question 2 = 20 points
so on and so forth
right now I have it so they are an equal percentage of the total (ie 10 questions all are worth 10 points)and I need to change thatunfortunately I am still teaching myself AS but even more unfortunate for me is that I am learning AS3 and this template is AS2 I also have not done much in this vein I have been concentrating more on UI kind of stuff and less on the math side also it makes no difference to me if this is done in AS or XML this file will not be continually updated so it can be a one time deal
I am after finding out which drag and drops are correct, so I can score accordingly rather than just have a single score throughout. I need to know if the circle was dropped correctly or the square etc. I'd ideally like to have this interaction as a command on a button, but my AS3 is letting me down
var score:Number = 0; var startX:Number; var startY:Number;
I need to put together a really simple flash Quiz for this project I am working on and I am having a hell of a time figuring out a few key aspects.
1. When working with an array and an xml file, how can I assign the "correct" answer if a user selected the wrong option. Ideally I would love it to say for example " sorry, Egyptians was the correct answer" but would settle for " sorry, 3 was the correct answer" if that is easier to arrange within an array.
2. How can I make it so it marks your first answer and only your first answer (as opposed to how it is now where if you guessed wrong you can keep on guessing until it is right and it will notice the right answer and ignore the wrong)? Files attached here [URL]
i have a quiz with 20 questions and all of its answers in 2 different arrays. I want to know how i can make those 20 questions and the all of the answers appear in a random order when anyone takes the quiz.
I am making a quiz what I want to do is: when the user types in the correct answer a tick appears and when they type in a wrong answer a cross appears I want this to happen on a single frame. How to make these type in boxes and how to make the above stuff happen.
I'm creating a sort of guessing game/trivia with AS 2.0. I have a popup window with a question, and four answers with a button next to each answer. The question and answers are dynamic text that are set by clicking on a "question" button.I was thinking I could do was click an answer button, which sets "current answer"... compare that with "correct answer" and do something? If it doesn't match, set the dynamic text to "wrong answer". If it's correct, then gotoAndStop(something)... I can get the answer buttons to trace their values(current answer) as I click on them, but when I try and goto () or do something based on these values (true) it seems just do whatever is in the if statement... not based on the answer being correct?Hmmm... like if I say: if (This is true)Not sure if I'm explaining this properly. But basically I have a popup window with a question. I have four answers, with buttons to select choice. I want to compare the choice/buttons pressed with a variable "correct answer" and then do something.
I have an exam which pulls in questions from an XML file and to indicate what the correct answer is you would indicate in the XML as such:
[Code]...
There is one question, that is structured so there are two right answers, but when I add correct="true" to both answers I want as right only one is calculated correctly in the scoring. I thinking I need to make an adjustment in the code that pulls in the XML, but not sure where. Here is the AS code.
I am currently trying to create a multiple choice quiz. Alright, what I want to do is this - I want to create a multiple choice like this, where user click the answer and they will be linked to a feedback page, telling them what is wrong with their answer. Then they can click an "OK" button to proceed to the next scene where there will be the next qns. The reason why I am not putting all in the same scene is because I need to do up a different scenario for each of the qns.
If I were to have ten qns in one scene, I was told it is "no good" by my lecturer. At the end of the ten qns, there will be a grading of points. I want the script to be able to track all correct answers despite all qns being on different scenes. Because I want the grade to show at the evaluation scene. is it possible to capture the answer user has clicked on, store to the array, store in another array as one point if it is a correct answer and click next to go to the next scene for the 2nd qns, not next frame.
