ActionScript 3.0 :: Loaded SWF Not Initiating Class?
Aug 3, 2009
I have created a preloader that loads my application (SWF).The problem is that I have a class, with an instance on the stage, but this class is not initiating on runtime and returns null. It happens only with this class and only when the SWF is loaded into another SWF.I have tried to create a timer, and the timer initiates the application just after 1 second. But this doesn't help. Still the class doesn't initiate and the movieClip returns null.
It is driving me crazy, I have searched everywhere and no answer. How can I fix it? Or do you an idea for other way to create a preloader?

I'm working on a side scroller that has a character that fires a bullet every time you hit spacebar, the problem I'm having is moving the bullet in the direction the character is facing (left or right).
I have a few of boolean variables to tell me which direction my character is facing: walkingRight | walkingLeft, so if my walkingRight == true, I want the bullet to travel +=10, and walkingLeft == true, bullet -= 10.
The problem is, when I fire facing left, the bullet moves left, but as soon as I turn right, that same bullets starts moving right.
Here is a snippet of AS3 code (Every Frame):
if(gamepad.fire2.isPressed){
// initiate bullet
var bullet = new Bullet();

I'm making a simple game for my course and the menu system is gonna be playable in a sense.It is all in total 2D.What I want to happen is that when the character touches/enters this house movieclip, the text movieclip within it (instructions text that I want to fade in) will play on the relevant frame so that the alpha tween initates. So basically when the character enters the house the text fades in, and when he leaves it fades out.
At the moment all that happens is when he enters the house the text movieclip goes from 0% alpha to 100% alpha in two frames, so from blank to 100%, as if it's not registering the frames of the tween motion. Here's the code, what the hell is going wrong it's driving me mad! I've not put in the code for the keyboard function of moving the character/background as it's most likely irrelevant to the problem.
Code:
function hitFadeInstructions(evt:Event):void{
if(characterBoy_mc.hitTestObject(house_mc)){
house_mc.fadeTextWithin_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);

I have 10 buttons each linked to a dynamic text box. 5 integer variables will be passed into swf file (one will be a zero.. which ends the game) When a button is clicked, the first variable is displayed in a text box, when the 2nd button is clicked, the next variable is displayed etc.., until 0 is passed from variables. What action script needs to be initiated to declare the incoming variables and what code is needed on each button to make sure the variables are not repeated?

I've got a document class (EgoGame.as) and another class (Ball.as) which has been duplicated to deal with several different video pieces. Inside the document class is a list of 'if' statements which decide which video should be played. At the moment I'm doing it the old fashioned way whereby if the condition is true....it tells the relevant Ball class to gotoAndPlay a certain frame within the linked movieclip...

I can't find a way to directly access a MC (or textfield, etc) on the timeline from a Class loaded into my Document Class. No problem from the Doc Class, but can't do it directly from the loaded Class. Is there a trick to essentiall extend the Doc Class AS from another external class?

I have two SWF files which I shall call container and slave. The slave file contains a movieclip that extends from a class I shall call base. base extends MovieClip and is compiled into an SWC. slave includes this SWC as a runtime library, while container includes it as merged (and does reference it so it should be compiled into the container SWF).
The container loads the slave like so:
bgURLRequest = new URLRequest(slaveUrl);
var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext(false, new ApplicationDomain( null ), SecurityDomain.currentDomain);
bgLoader.load(bgURLRequest, context);
When this loading happens, I get the error that class base was not found. I suspect this has something to do with the presence of the ApplicationDomain in there. I'm not sure what it does exactly, since I didn't write this loading code myself (but I do know that it's there for a reason so it can't be simply removed).

I have a FLA (say Main.FLA) document class with a child MovieClip on the stage: into the child MovieClip I load other swf files: each of the files contains its own Document Class (every swf is a somewhat independent application, say quizzes and so on).For some reason I must use the Main document class to store data (scores or so) from the child swfs loaded into the Main swf. HOW do I reference the Main class? I can't find a way.[code]and dispatch an Event this way from the loaded swf document class to the Main class:[code]Now, first of all I don't know if this could even work. Secondly, I tried to make it work by adding an event listener to my Main class but id did not work.

I'm trying to publish a swf with Flash CS3.
I have one .fla file and two .as files. I think my problem is I don't know how to set the path for the action scripts. All three files are in the same directory
The files:
dtd.fla
TransformItem.as
TransformManager.as
The error: The class or interface 'gs.TransformManager' could not be loaded.
dtd.fla code appears to have an appropriate import: import gs.TransformManager; var manager_obj = new TransformManager([], onTransformEvent, true, false, false, false, false, true, true);
TransformManager.as code appears to have an appropriate import: import gs.TransformItem;

I have parent.swf which uses a class called ObjEvent.parent.swf then loads child.swf, which also uses a class called ObjEvent.However- if the class which child.swf uses is somehow different than the one parent.swf uses (i.e. uses a public var which isn't defined in the other), I get errors. How can I avoid this? I want child.swf to act as its own... especially if child.swf weren't developed by myself and just happened to use a class of the same name of one I use in parent.swf.

I'm doing a simple link code. I've tried many diferrent ways to do this but this error keeps comming up saying The class or interface could not be loaded...
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoURL);
function gotoURL(event:MouseEvent):Void{
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("my site"));}
This is the most recent method I've tried in doing this. I've tried changing the publishing settings of the document to and from Action Script 3.0- using an import command. But thats too complicated.

In Flash Professional, I drew a shape, converted it to symbol, linked it to class Symbol1 (extends MovieClip) which is generated at run-time, and saved the SWF file as shape.swf.
Now my main application wants to load shape.swf and create multiple instances of Symbol1 but I get ReferenceError when trying to access the class Symbol1.
Below is my main application's code. Errors thrown are mentioned in comments.
public class MovieClipTest extends Sprite

public function MovieClipTest()

I have a main SWF that loads in a game SWF. The main SWF's document class is Main.as. The game SWF's document class is Game.as. In Main I use a Loader to load in the game SWF. In the game's library I have a symbol that is exported with a class name of TileGrass. When I run just the game SWF, I can instantiate a new TileGrass just fine, but when I test the main SWF which loads in teh game, then I get a compile error: Call to possibly undefined method TileGrass.

I have a swf that is loaded into my main swf with the loader class. When I click a button in the main swf I want to call a function in the loaded swf Main class.
When I do a trace it is showing the loaded clip as [object Home] which is the name of the Main document class associated to the loaded swf. I have a public function in my Home.as called startAnimation() but when I try to call it I get
[quote]1061: 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method startAnimation through a reference with static type flash.display:Sprite.

I am loading one swf into another using the Loader class, but when the child swf finishes loading and is added to the display list, its Document Class is not instantiated. I have a few trace statements that should execute when the object is created, but nothing is happening when loaded into the parent SWF. When I compile the child SWF on its own, the Document Class runs as expected.
So I'm wondering... how do I associate a child SWF's Document Class with Loader.content?

I have read this article about abstracting assets from actionscript:But it requires to set the Linkage Class name. How can I get the same result without setting the linkage class name?What I want to do is to cache a loaded asset, and use the cached version every time I request the same URL. A solution is to clone the loaded DisplayObject, but I think it's unnecessary since I only want a new copy.

I have an older site that is coded in AS2(I can't get it to AS3 sorry) I found this script online that allows for mouse scrolling. It is in AS3 and I can't figure out what Event replaced in AS2. I'm sure there are much better AS programmers than me that could tell me off the bat. I'm just trying to get this converted to AS2.

var limit:Number = stage.stageHeight - content_mc.height;
