I'm trying to cobble together the simplest preloader possible from various AS3 tutorials and settled on the preloader coding below.
[Code].....
My AS3 syntax checks OK, but when I test the movie it displays frame 5 and stops there. I can briefly see the preloader display. Without the preloader it runs to the end.
I made a flash file with buttons that go here and there and everything was fine except it takes a while to load so i added a preloader and suddenly the compiler is throwing the following error:
how to make text acting as a preloader so that its color changes as preloader percentage. i dont mean how to apply the math, i mean how to mask it or whatever action to achieve that effect?
like for example imagine the red is constantly growing to the right letter by letter (actually pixel by pixel:
I just started working on a preloader screen that includes a preloader mask over a logo and a percentage dynamic text. I can get either or to work but not both at the same time. I notice that if I remove stop(); I can get the percentage to work but not the preloader image. With the stop(); embedded the image preloader works but the percentage doesn't.
I want to make a preloader for flash mx 2004 that when it finish becomes to decrement another time. I would like to do it to modify the flash preloader component.
i tried the tutorial that teaches you how to create a preloader....i followed the instructions and it still doesnt work! what's wrg?[code]on my first frame actions....i put the "gotoAndPlay (36)" cause i tried a previous preloader that took more than 1 frame and didnt want to change my button's "goTo" frames...but i figured it wont change anything..anyways, i put that line of code as my first frame action....by double clicking the timeline..then i create a symbol for that frame 1 and created an animation.
Ie the preloader and steps through a preloader animation filling the logo (ie loader)Now I have tried changing a few things but having problems tried loading into a container and a level
i have a one simple swf preloader on my site. i'm showing my short fractal animation. but swf size/quality is not good and i want convert my swf preloader to flv preloader. but i'm not expert on action script. here is my old preloder script. i would like if anybody change the codes for flv. i will gift 1 year 3dfiction membership.
Code: var loader_mcl = null; var target_mcl = null; var preload_anim_visible:Boolean = false;[code]......
I'm wrapping up a small corporate website, but I left the preloader to do until the very end, so instead of changing any layout of my View, I just moved everything to frame 2, and put the preloader on frame 1. I'm using some of the code here: http:[url].... which seems pretty ace.
The problem I'm having though is that CS5's built in preloader is going and loading the whole swf, then it runs my preloader (on frame 1) which causes it to move strait to frame two instantly (I changed it so now it at least plays through the animation then moves on, but it's still not loading anything during that screen).that is causing flash to load the entire swf before even playing my preloader on frame 1. I don't remember having this problem in CS4.
I have made a preloader, yet when i bring my SWF in that i want to load, it loses all the stops that have been put int it? So it just plays all the way through?
I have a function that has a site pop up when the user clicks on a button. This works well except it goes until the frame that has the command stop(). Is there any way to have this function continue on, even when that frame says stop? Or is there a different command besides stop that allows this function to work up to and including that frame?
The stop() command is on frame 90.
I tried gotoAndPlay(88) and it gives the user the mouse hand, but nothing pops up.
I have been working on a project that requires the a.s. to load xml into the doc. I have successfully loaded the document (xml I have created) and have used it for some time.
The problem I am having is that it seems like every hour or so of adding code to my AS file and testing the project the XML will stop loading and I get the general error message[url]...
I have a friend who's stuck in an old-school splash setup: He's trying to insert an AS2 script that goes to a URL when an external FLV stops playing... It's not working. He's in CS5 � I can test out in CS4
I have some movie clips that hold the contents. (ie I have a movie clip to hold my navigation buttons and another to hold the actual content.) I wrote some action script on a separate layer that is outside of the movie clips, the AS adds event listeners and a few simple functions. All my navigational buttons work prefectly, I have a button that I use for email, this works the first the frame is loaded. If I go to another frame (another page of the website), and then go back, the button no longer works, I tested with just using trace("the email button was clicked"); oh, I thought I might add that each page of the website is a different frame, that is inside my content movie clip. my AS looks like this:
so when i use it it has no errors no bugs and its like just goes to an animation or just stops (its been happening with ALL my games ive made and all the codes are correct and should work i've had help on it already i'm the animator i had a actionscript person working on it but he bailed and said he cant fix it but anyways i can send you the file if you gimme your email i tried uploading it to zip but i dont know how its too hard anyways on media fire and mega upload you cant send stuff to other people with a basic account.but anyways if you know what the problem is already from the description that would be helpful cause it should be something SOOO simple to fix cause this is happening with ALL my flash games
I'm attempting to make a website, using flash with AS3. All of it's going pretty great, I'm somewhat tech savvy with the 3D rendering so alot of the concepts in flash are easy to pick up.
others.. not so much.Okay I don't know the proper setup in flash but I have one layer that has my background. one layer for my buttons. and another for my action script.
In my buttons layer I have a link to a pictures gallery, graphic design, a contact page and then back home button . The problem is, when I click the "contact" button, then click the home button, I can't click the contact button again. It won't work.
I have a button that goes to a MC. In the MC I have a gotoAndStop to a frame where the FLV is. How can I make this MC go to the beginning after the FLV stops playing?
Here is the code I have and the flash file runs for about 10to 15 mins then stops updating from the dynamically created xmlfile and just hangs displaying undefined. Is there something wrongwith my code? The only way to clear it out is close the app andrestart it but that leads me to believe its a caching problem. Butbelow i did use some ideas about dynacially loading and unloadingthe content to stop the caching problem. I am not great at actionscript and only understand a little.
I use Flash debug local and remote without any problem.Today I update Flex and I deselected the options "update flash 9".Then I go to debug a project in Flash CS4.But now debug doesn't works.I reinstall flashplayer_10_ax_debug.exe and nothing change.When I run in browser the menu option "Debugger"(right-click) doesn't appears.
I updated FlashPro from 10.0 to 10.0.2 through the adobe updater.After the update applied, Flash ignores any code entered on my action layers as if it were not there, even simple stop(); command.
I want to detect when my FLV stops and jump to another video. How can I do this? My current code is: The first video plays fine, but it just stops when it is done.
// Setting up my netstream and playing my video var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();nc.connect(null);var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);ns.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, asyncErrorHandler);var vid:Video = new Video(320,
I'm a newbie web designer, and am working on a client's flash-run website, which is powered by a 3rd party template she gave me. I've done most of the text changing work, and I've uploaded the website at [URL] In the SERVICES page, there's a text area [left-top], which scrolls to a certain point and then stops at the line "VLCC". In the .fla file, there is text for at least another 20-30 lines below. how do I make the scroll work to its full length.
i have a MovieClip with some MotionTweens and they work great.However, as soon as i modify the MC's BlendMode or BlendShader using AS3 (im targetting Flash10) the Tweens stop.I dont have the slightest clue why that happens...I have build a very simple test case for the problem: http:[url].....
On the Actionslayer you will a couple code lines (there is a comment in german, just ignore it, if you remove the // comment sign, you will see that the animation stops as soon as the blendshader is active).I have included a swc that that implements some custom blendshaders. However, instead of assigning a blendShader, you can simply assign a flash blendmode using code.the same will happen.
My flash web page works good but when it starts for a first time (you go to link for the first time and web is not in your cache) animation stops after it is loaded. I have same problem after Ctrl+Enter export from Flash, sometimes I have to re-export few times.
