I'm following the tutorial "PAPERVISION3D Basics Tutorial". I'm developing on mac and i've setup the global class path in the ActionScript 3.0 settings in the preferences panel like this:
I'm at the moment trying to recreate a menu system that I found on URL... as you can see, the menu you get after you've choosen a language is a 3d menu rotating so its always looking at the cursor, but as you will notice, the motion has a little bit of easing to it, which I'm currently trying to recreate using the cube you make with the "Papervision3D 2.0 Interactive Cube" from GotoAndLearn();URL...and here is the code behind that drives the rotation:URL...Now, my problem is that I'm having a hard time figuring out how to create a tween effect on his, resulting in a bit out of sync rotation that slowly stops instead of just following my pointer in an instant.
I have successfully implemented the INTERACTIVE 3D Cube, but I can't seem to figure out how to create a rollover function properly, so that once the user rollovers a face, a title for the face fades in and when the user rolls out, the title fades out. I have done it by placing 6 movieclips on the stage and giving each face a rollover and rollover event, but once I rollover a face the title flickers.
change a cube's materialList at runtime in Papervision 3d?
I have a cube already drawn up with two different images on the front and back. When it's clicked, I want to change the image texture on the back and then spin it to show the recently loaded image's side. Spinning's fine, I'm just unsure how to change the cube's materialist.
I have a cube with a material on the front face. I'm trying to create a magnifying glass in 2D for the 3D cube. Can anyone offer a suggestion for how to achieve this? I was thinking I might try to find the UV under the mouse in an OBJECT_OVER InteractiveScene3DEvent and somehow get the bitmap from the material, mask it, and move it around in relation to the mouse position- mimicking a magnifying effect. How to do that, I have no clue.
I want to load a completely different .swf into a 50 *50 Red cube which is called a.swf.However i want the newly loaded .swf which is called b.swf to appear in a.swf as its background only so you can still see the red cube .When i try to do this all i get is that the new b.swf completely replaces the old a.swf which becomes completely invisible.I have tried using masks and also holders for the new b.swf but still can not acheive my goal.
I am trying to build a portfolio application similar to the used by Whitevoid. I am using Flex 4 and Papervision3D 2. I have everything working except for one issue. When I try to load an external SWF as a material on one of the planes, I can see any native Flex or Flash components in their correct positions, but the papervision objects are not being rendered properly. It looks like the viewport is not being set in the nested swf. I have posted my code for loading the swf below.
private function loadMovie(path:String=""):void { loader = new Loader(); request = new URLRequest(path);
[Code]....
Below I have posted two pictures. The first is a shot of the application running by itself. The second is the application as a MovieMaterial on a Plane. You can see how the button created as a spark object in the mxml stays in the correct position, but papervision sphere (which is rotating) is in the wrong location.
I have an SWF loading in an SWF containing a papervision scene.I've done it before yet problem is, I get an error - I'm not sure what the issue really is.[code]
I have a project that first loads a preloader swf then loads a main swf. Next, other swfs load externally into the main swf. One external swf is an xml driven mp3 player. The player runs fine when opened on it's own, however, when it is loaded into the main swf, the playlist isn't actually showing up, nor is the audio playing. The components, combobox, show up but playlist is not populated nor do the controls work. Below is my source code. Note: the playlist, mp3 files, and external swfs are all in the same directory.
Code for preloader swf Select allvar l:Loader = new Loader(); l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop); l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done); l.load(new URLRequest("test_flash_16.swf")); function loop(e:ProgressEvent):void { [Code] .....
I bought a flash site template that loads xml driven swfs inside the main swf as different menu items are clicked. The modules that come with the template work fine, but I don't know how to add a third party xml driven swf, so that it shows up properly. While the third party swf works fine as a standalone, the embedded version loads just an empty movie.
I've read that when loading swf's it's a good idea to load them into a MovieClip. Is that true, why and would a Sprite do as well. Also how is it done?I thought this would do.
var currentPage:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); var loadRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("home.swf"); var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader(); swfLoader.load(loadRequest); currentPage.addChild(swfLoader);
i used this code with linkage to load a movieclip from library using flash action script 3
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,goLayersS ite); function goLayersSite(Event) { var myMovieClip:MovieClip = new Tree(); empty.addChild(myMovieClip); }
i want to know how am i able to load a flash movie clip from my current library into my stage with using a button via flash action script 2.
since im using other codes in action script 2 i can not cancel them and i really need to load a movie clip in my AS2 FLA.
I'll do my best to keep this question as short as possible:
I've made 5 'fruit' movieclips and they're in my library.
And using so.addVariable("getNumber", "003"); in my HTML code, I'd like those particular fruit movieclips to play one after the other (and then loop).
I've had a look around for something similar, without luck, so I'm trying to make it from scratch. I got as far as getting it to load the first number and then the first type and url, but I'm stuck on getting to go onto the next type, also being able to define (with addVariable) which number's nodes gets played.
Here's an example of my XML to show the structure. Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <list> <number="001" >
I'm making a game where I have a lot of movie clips that I need to load so I was wondering wheather ActionScript 3.0 allowed us to load external movieclips? Can we import an external display object (movieclip) into a display object container? Or do I have to load a .swf which contains the movieclip onto the stage? What happens if I need to pull in multiple .swf files can the movieclips overlap or will one .swf file block the user from viewing the .swf in a lower depth? Can I import the movieclip from the external .swf file from its library and add it to the main stage rather then adding the whole .swf to the main stage?
Basically I have this movieclip on stage that is suppose to load another movieclip from an swf. in that swf are 31 copies of the movieclip since theres no duplicateMovieclip function in as3. I am able to load and add child to the movieclips easy with this,
PHP Code: function duplicateMovieclips():void{ for (var i=0; i<movieclipsToLoad; i++){ movieclipsDuplicated++; entrys_mc.addChild(mcV[i]);
Below (which I excluded) are other various bits of code to edit the movieclip and what not. I can also remove it just fine with this bit of code here
PHP Code: function removeF():void{ var repeat:int = 0; for (var i=0; i<timesToRemove;i++){ entrys_mc.removeChild(mcV[i]); repeat++; movieclipsToLoad--; if(i == timesToRemove-1){ loadSelected(); //THE PROBLEM }}}
What this swf is trying to do is record the year and the month the user clicks on and then return every day's data from the xml if a day is filled out. when removeF(); executes, i get the error: Code: ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. Pointing at entrys_mc.removeChild(mcV[i]);...but when its NOT there, loadSelected(); that is, it works just fine. I even put a trace statement in it. The whole if condition works fine to.
LoadSelected is the one that retrieves the text needed to load in the movieclip. whatever year and month the user selects, it loads the information of it and puts it in a string. then it displays in the dynamic text field inside the movieclip. Also, when SWF loaded it loads all 31 movieclips using this. Code: for (var i = 0; i < 31; i++){ var groupMC:MovieClip=MovieClip(clip.getChildByName("group" + i)); mcV.push(groupMC); trace("repeat # = " + i); }
I start off my game with an empty movieclip located in the middle of the stage. I then load a movieclip using the loadMovie method. At some point I would like to unload the movieclip and then reload another one, sort of a different scene if you will. The new movieclip has a number of other nested movieclips that I will use as buttons and I have coded a function that is called that creates these buttons. Here's what it would look like:[code]The roomSetUp function contains info on how the room should look and the button codes. The problem is that the setup function runs before the new movieclip is loaded. Seems that there is no way to have Flash 'Yield' until the movieclip is loaded and then go to the last function. Any suggestions other than MovieClipLoader?
I have several Movie Clips in the Library which I need to be able to load and bring up on the screen randomly.The code below shows how I can load one of these, but to get a proper control ideally I would like to load them all in to an array or numbered variables so that they can be called from a simple piece of code and actioned one at a time.
My movieclips can all be called something simple like mc1, mc2, mc3, mc4 etc to make things easier.These need to be referenced in to an array mcContainer[.....] or as mcContainer1, mcContainer2........ so that they can be called easily.I just need to know the simplest way to do this and how i reference them, I have tried several ways like ["mc"+i] etc and nothing seems to work.
I have several buttons that on mouse over will load a library movie clip. I want that movieclip to load on top of everything then once it's played allow me to either replay that movieclip by hovering over the button again or play a different movieclip by hovering over another button etc etc. with the ability to repeat this.
My code below currently loads my movieclip on top in hte corerct place however wont allow me to hover over another button and only plays once: var my_packages_mc:MovieClip = new packages_mc();var my_treatments_mc:MovieClip = new treatments_mc();

I'm loading an external SWF file, which become a MovieClip, using Loader(). That part is working fine. I then need to scale the MovieClip to match the stage, so that when I set the width and height of the movie doing the loading in SWFobject, the MovieClip will scale too.
For example, the SWF being loaded may be 320x240, but we decide later that we want it to be 640x480 on the page. We can just change the width and height in the javascript call to SWFobject, and it should scale everything. To top it off, I'll need an AS2 version too because we might need to load AS2 SWFs.
