Does anyone know of a light flip class to flip a movieclip that is animated? Away3D is overkill for this project since this simple flip is the only 3D effect needed.
View 0 Repliescreating a flip-book in flash (using AS3) . I've looked at the other flip-book programs and editors out there, and none really give the customization that my company wants.I have something working, but the page scoping seems to be off. The pages will turn back and forward with a button click but they flip out of order. However, it all runs fine with no error when the user clicks on the pages themselves. This is the code from the main timeline (where I'm getting an error).
View 6 RepliesI have a movieclip and when I do 3D rotation from Transform panel, It rotates perfect, center is in the middle of image, and when I apply mc.rotationY, rotation center is in left of the image, aren't 3D rotation from Transform panel and mc.rotationY from AS same? what's up?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to do some augmented reality projects with flartoolkit . I can now put simple 3d objects on my marker and it works fine , but I wanna give my project some events that the user can interact with. I'm trying to trace the rotation of the marker. there's a container:DisplayObject3D which my application uses to add the 3d objects , I traced this :"trace(container.rotationZ)" but it's just returning 0 . I studied another AR application's source code and it was using the rotation of it's container object without problem .and I think I should mention that I'm using the exercise file of seb lee delisle papervision3d course from [URL]. anyone has any experience with flartoolkit? the main functions of my my code is as below:

Is it possible to have the child movieclip rotate separate of the rotation properties assigned to the parent? so ultimately giving the child element it's own axis?I've customized Lee Brimelows (gotoandlearn.com) 3D carousel to spin on the x axis to make it a vertical carousel. I've also rotated that by 45 degrees on the y axis to see all the items, and wrote a snippet of code to hide the left portion of the carousel. The entire carousel is contained within the 'container' movieclip, and inside of that are my carousel items (as seen below), with the larger item being the item in focus.
On rollover of the item in focus, I want to rotate it so it faces the viewer (as seen below),basically removing the 45 degree rotation applied to the container.The problem i'm running into is when you rotate the container (changing the rotationX of the container), the axis basically rotates with it, so when i rollover the next item 'in focus', the following happens..(in the example where it appears how it want it to, the carousel is at a rotationX of 0, so it works fine)
Program A has a cannon that aims to line up with where-ever the mouse is pointing, in 360 degrees, and fires when the mouse is is clicked. Program B has an eye instead of a cannon that should in theory do similar functions when the capslock key is toggled, but instead only has a 90 degree range of motion from the Right of the eye toward the bottom (quadrant 4 only). Where did the ther 270 degrees of rotation disappear to?

i.m trying to create a 3d rotation much like the widely used carousel only the rotation i desire consist of four upright(90 degrees) movieclips resting on a slanted, 30 degree plane which rotate onEnterFrame or following a tween on a oval like path - then pause for a given number of seconds at the four movieclips positions equal in distance on the plane
function around() {
this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
var s = this._y /(centerY+radiusY);

Why isn't there the Z, rotation X and rotation Y fields in my motion editor panel?

View 1 RepliesI am trying to do a simple "pseudo 3D" rotation of a movie clip. The clip would "flip" on to the screen. I have created the effect using PaperVision3D, however, the final SWF is about 64k and my project requires a smaller file size. I tried to create the flip effect manually by creating skewed versions of the clip and tweening between them, except this doesn't work because the shape is not tweaked along the vanishing point as it should be. It looks like perhaps I could accomplish what I want to do using the MatrixTransformer but I've not had much luck so far.

I'm a Flash newbie and I'm trying to get some keyboard action going. I've followed some tutorials, but nothing seems to work. To test it I created a brand new fla file and added the following code in the first frame:
[Code]...
The first trace ("Add listener") shows up in the debug output, but no matter which keys I press I can't get the function to be called. Am I doing it wrong?
Alright I'm new to Keyboard event listeners so I might be making a really obvious mistake that I don't know about. But what I want to do is, when someone types the letters for the word 'BROTHER', then it appears on the screen and it moves to the next frame. Here's the code I have atm I currently have the letters for 'BROTHER' each as a movie clip. The instance names are, RKey, OKey, etc.

Now, is this the only mistake in my thing? Or are there more mistakes? How do I fix it?
I have an error on my KeyboardEvent and I can't find what the problem is. The file of my class is mc_boog.as and when I compile it returns me this error: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: KeyboardEvent.
View 2 RepliesI currently have an AS3 fla with a couple of mouseEvent functions but now the client wants to add a KeyboardEvent as well to the same exact functions. Can I add another eventListener to that without having to create a second function? It would be a huge waste of code if I did. Here's what I currently have in truncated form:
rightArrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, slide_right);
leftArrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, slide_left);
function slide_right(e:MouseEvent):void {

I'm trying to add a KeyBoard event in addition to the MouseEvent I already have for my function. So I set up the following code to handle that but it's giving me 1136 errors looking for an argument inside the parenthesis when in reality, it doesn't need one.
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyPressed);
function onKeyPressed(evt:KeyboardEvent):void {
switch (evt.keyCode) {

I'm using very basic code to move an object around the stage using keys on the keyboard (W,A,S,D). However, I have noticed at times when the CPU hiccups, flash does not register that a key was released and in turn my object keeps moving in a direction without any keys pressed. The only way to stop the object from moving is to press the key corresponding to the direction the object is moving.
View 9 RepliesI had a problem with KeyboardEvent in ActionScript 3.0,I created a simple shooting game, the game has 2 Frame,
1. Title Game (Frame 1)
2. Game Playing (Frame 2)
The problem is in Frame 1 when Button is clicked playinggame then switched Frame to Frame 2 where the game takes place where the user can move the aircraft by using the keyboard, (Left Arrow, Up Arrow, Right Arrow & Down Arrow).But when a keyboard button is pressed, KeyboardEvent not react at all, and aircraft can not be controlled.Even more bizarre when the stage at the click KeyboardEvent can react and aircraft can be controlled.how to keep the button is clicked playinggame in Frame and the Frame 2, the aircraft can still be controlled using the keyboard [URL]
In the keyboardEvent, the ENTER key is not responding.. why?.... any other option is there?

I made a login (textfield and a button).
mybutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,loginCheck); // This is my button
function loginCheck(event:MouseEvent):void { // My function code here
}
In order to make login using Enter button, I tried adding:

But of course it won't works because loginCheck is a MouseEvent function.
I´m making a game.This game has 4 frames.It has a preloader.swf and game.swf.The preloader.swf loads the game.swf.The game.swf has 4 frames.In the first frame is given to the user the options to play the game (clicking a button "playGame" on "click" event) and to set the sounds settings (clicking a button "options" on "click" event).So far so good.
When the user clicks "playGame" I send the user to frame 2, where it has the option to select a game level using the arrow keys. So within the playGameListener I registered two keyboard events one for KEY_UP and another for KEY_DOWN. So, to have sure that it´s working, I added a trace for each keyboard event listener. But I´m not getting any message in the output window while pressing
left arrow or right arrow or any arrow.
So I learned that KeyboardEvent only dispatches an event if the flash player has focus.Well I think the flash player has never losed focus in this process.I´ve registered two events for Event.ACTIVATE and Event.DEACTIVATE and inside its listeners I added a trace with a message. Flash outputs me a message if I minimize the flash player window or if I maximize the flash player,but not while the game.swf´s frame transition.The listeners for the KeyboardEvent works only when I press at the flash player, then I receive the messages from the KeyboardEvent listeners.
I'm new to ActionScript development and am using the FlashDevelop IDE. I've been playing around with some really simplistic things and have come across a problem I can't seem to solve.My application compiles and runs, and a function that watches click events fires perfectly and I can see the event in the console when I pass it to trace(), yet the same code watching for KeyboardEvent fails to fire at all.Here's my code:
package GameTesting
{
import flash.display.Bitmap;[code]............
The MouseEvent trace() fires every time as expected, but KeyboardEvent never fires, no matter what key I press.
I created a Paddle class that doesn't do anything yet. However, I don't think it is working.[code]...
View 2 RepliesOk, so I am creating a slideshow presentation in Flash CS5. The code is very basic, however it does not work as intended. It's supposed to go to the next frame if i press a button, or press up/right arrow on the keyboard. However, the keyboard only works after I've pressed a button once.
my code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
slides.stop();
[Code]....
slides is a movieclip, where I've stored all my slides (Oh, by the way, I know my setup isn't the best, but I wouldn't use a lot of time on it, as it's for a religion class). FB is forward button, and you can guess what BB is..
Ive been using the 'event' parameter for my KeyboardEvents and MouseEvents in a recent project ive been working on for my course (VERY BASIC).Im not entirely sure on what the 'e' part of e:KeyboardEvent actually does, and ive been asked to find out what information the parameter 'e' can actually access when using it.
EDIT: If A method takes the parameter (e:KeyboardEvent). what information could we access through the use of the parameter e?
I have a problem with a game I am working on which where keyboard events do not get registered properly. Here is my setup.I have four frames in the main FLA.1) main menu
2) instructions movie clilp3) game movie clip4) game over movie clipThe game is basically a racing game. Once the game class initiates (3rd frame) I create an instance of the car class and place it on the track. I listen to the keyboard KEY_UP and KEY_DOWN events in the car class. The problem is once I click the START button everything works fine except the keyboard event listeners. They do not get registered unless I click on the stage once. Here is the constructor and init() from my car class.

The keyCode property only stores one Key. This means that, if I was making a game for example and wanted to have it so that if the up key and the left key were pressed it would move up and left at the same time.I've tried extending the keyboardEvent class and storing the keyCodes in an array, but It returns an error.Here's my class.
package{
import flash.events.*
public class KeyEvent extends KeyboardEvent{

End point I want to get something like this "stage.1addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,ke yPressHandler);" working in a dynamically created object eg PlayerShip. The afore mentioned line works fine when in a static object , that is to say one I dragged from the library to the stage prior to compiling. However when I create the object 'PlayerShip' using script in my main time line I get the following output:
