ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloader Not Working Correctly / Not Getting Error Message
Dec 15, 2011
In the main class (DocumentClass) I have the following code to set up the preloader:[code]Although I am not getting any error messages, I have a strange issue going on where the first frame stays blank until the last second then flashes the preloader before going on to play the game.If you change the code "loadingPercent.setValue" to just "trace" you will notice that the game isn't even keeping track of the first 90% of the loading going on.

I am working on a website and I would like it to have a preloader.This website is scripted using Flash CS3 and AS2.There are two scenes, one is "preloader" the other is "tsh".roblem is, the swf file does not display while it loads, then after it loads it displays the preloader for a second and jumps right into the next scene. How can I make it load the preloader scene first, then preload the "tsh" scene? - I have put this code into "preloader"Frame 1:
Code:
var loaded:Number = Math.round ((_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*100);
mc_slider._x = -500 + (loaded*5);

I recently switch from AS2 to AS3 (too late - I know) and bump into (probably easy) problems now and then. I'm making this preloader in a class - I read that this might not be a good idea to put it in a class (?) - and I'm using a timer in it. But I keep getting this error message after simulating a download:
Code:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at MethodInfo-7()
at flash.utils::Timer/_timerDispatch()[code].........

I have a preloader which has this code (simplified):
Code: Select allvar loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaded);
loader.load(new URLRequest("x.swf"))
function loaded(e:Event):void
{}
And x.swf has this code (very simplified): Code: Select alltrace(stage.stageWidth); When I run preloader, I get this error: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at x_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

I've created some error handling for external images loaded via a path in XML. Within the Flash preview it's fine and shows the full error message (and most importantly, the URL that isn't loading).
But in the browser, even locally, it doesn't out put this message!
Here's my code:
function loadIOError(event:IOErrorEvent){
errorLog+=event.text+'
';
}

#1006: value is not a function. at MethodInfo-43() I don't know what the problem is, or where could it be, here is the problem code, but first a brief description: Every 3 seconds 3 enemies will be created with a random position, the enemies can't be appearing on top of the other so I check if they collide with any previously added enemies, if they do I assign other random coordinates and check again until there is no collision (I'm using the collision detection kit CDK for the collisions[URL]..the first 3 enemies appear correctly but afterwards the error appears and the next time the program enters the generation part the enemies begin appearing in ridiculous numbers.

i am currently trying to learn ZendAMF, but i have a hard time troubleshooting which makes learning it quite hard. Is there a way to make the PHP file throw an exception that gets traced as an error message in AS3 (not Flex), the only error i seem to be able to get is "Error #2044: Unhandled NetStatusEvent:. level=error, code=NetConnection.Call.Failed", but it tells me jack ****.
i have gotten ZendAMF working, i just want to know how i can make error handling better, so that as an example can use PHP to tell flash that no results were found, or that the typed text was invalid. Is it better to use AS3 to check if the field was filled properly?

I've just made a 2'nd version of my portfolio: [Code]... with xml used to read the content & i have several problems that i can't fix.
1: The site works well only in InternetExplorer. In all other browsers, jpg files are not loading correctly - they should fade in when the button is rolling & fade out when the button is rolling up, but they doesn't. Thare are also preloaders for each artwork & they doesn't appear (excepts IE). 2. The main preloader doesn't work correctly (even in IE) It appears, when about 80% of the site is loaded :S I don't know what to fix to the site to work correctly in all browsers.

The Flash movie runs correctly with the preloader when it is run inside Flash. When I upload to IE, the preloader doesn't run.

i have a MC, which i want to float up and down fluently, so I gave it this script:
onClipEvent(load) {
var step:Number = 0;
}
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
step+=0.1;
_y+=Math.sin(step);
}
Strangely, the object flies up after a short while, meaning it floats up and down, but more up than down, even if the script itself is pretty straightforward.

I've recently noticed that when I use tweens to fade in/out a mc or to move it along th x/y axis sometimes it doesn't work correctly. In this case I am adding a mc named B_info and some text to the stage and using a tween to fade them in. Testing the movie repeatedly I've noticed that sometimes they don't load or the alpha value is lower than it should be making the the text illegible. I've also had the same problem in the past with x, y tweens whereas the mc failed sometimes to get to the x value as it should.
Code:
Select all//_loading Info
function infoDisplay():void {
//load lines animation
var B_info:infoB = new infoB();
addChildAt(B_info, 0);
B_info.x = 552;
//this is TWEEN 1
var fadeIn:Tween = new Tween(B_info, "alpha", None.easeNone, 0, .5, .8, true);

I am loading external swf files into a single container( Instance: contents). when I test the movie inside flash it works fine but when I use the generated swf outside flash one of the swf files don't unload the way it is supposed to and therefor the other swfs can't load either. The swf file that dose not unload, contains videos using xml with a list component. Actually I used the tutorial from this website (Flash Video Basics). Here is the code I am using. It is probably kind of crude but I don't understand why it works only when I test the movie.
Code: Select allstop();
aboutArtist.onRelease = function() {
waveBar.gotoAndPlay(2);

So I followed the 3D Carousel tutorial, the first part of it and the coding worked fine, but the reflection is not working properly. I used a .PSD file and followed the instructions step by step. I added the action script code in the end, but when I take a look at the preview, the reflection image is displayed just like the original picture. Is the .PSD format a problem?

Im trying to make an interactive map. I have 32 cities in a metro area, and i want to have it bring up a message when you roll over it saying "this is the city click for more information". I also want to have it so when click it itll take you to a url for the web page that has the information.
But i cant figure out the how to make the buttons to work correctly or how to get the message to show up or how to get the url working. I've got the buttons down and i have the code down to click and go to url but it not working and i cant figure out how to get the message to show up only when you have the mouse over it.

I have a swf loading an external SWF which is a video player. The video player loads fine into the SWF, but if I hit full screen it goes full screen but I cant see anything. Its all black. I can still see the "hit escape to exit" bubble thing.If I embed the video player by itself(ie. ISNT loaded into a swf) the full screen function works fine.

The first scene will have an embedded movie clip and artwork as a background for approximately 150 frames, the next scene (Scene 2) then appears (in the first and only frame) which has the following (AS2) setInterval on it (to play a swf file on a movie clip - the swf lasts a little over 2 minutes. Hence, 122000 milliseconds below):
Code:
mc_demos.loadMovie("swf/aquira.swf");
stop();

I'm creating a project with a number of different sections. I've created a index menu with invisible buttons on that takes you to the different sections. This works fine. In each section I wonted a means to get back to this index, so created a index button that is present throughout each section. I've put the event handler in the actions layer on the same frame that the button instance is on (frame 15).

I'm working in pure as3 (no creative suite or xml). I have a sprite. It draws a large rectangle and then a slightly smaller rectangle. I want to change the color of the slightly smaller rectangle when I hover the mouse over it. Right now though it will either not respond (I can plainly have the mouse over the rectangle and nothing happens) or it is slow to respond. In addition the collision area of the rectangle seems a bit off, ie it responds more frequently when I have the mouse on the upper left corner of the rectangle than when I have the mouse elsewhere on it.

I'm wanting to create a simple red flash effect which entails a red flash suddenly appearing and fading away on screen.
I'm currently doing this by creating a red box as big as the screen and made it a movieclip. I'm then decrementing this movieclips alpha value from 100 to 0 but ofcourse, it's not as simple as that.
It seems that any alpha value greater than 0 makes the object have 100% alpha. So what's going on? How should I do it?

So I have this movie clip with some buttons in it. Two of the buttons (forward and backward) move the movie clip forwards or backwards one frame at a time - this works fine. However the other two buttons (fast forward and rewind) are suppose to move the movie clip forwards or backwards 25 frames at a time (so they always go to 25, 50, 75, 100, etc.) - but here's the problem.
Say for example I'm at frame 150. I press the fast forward button and I'm at frame 175. Now I hit backward and I'm at 174. Now I hit fast forward again to get back to 175 - however my movie clip is jumping ahead to 200, skipping 175 completely - not what I want. I'm just using the gotoAndStop(frame#); commands and have no clue why this is happening. I want the fast forward and rewind buttons to always hit the next 25 increment, not skip the closest one.

I am trying to get my flash buttons working. When I click on them they open a new window and none of the graphics show up. I need it to open in the same window and I have no idea why the graphics aren't linking. They are on my computer not on a server. In addition I need to add multiple buttons to the action script without messing up the entire movie. It seems when I try and add event listeners for the other buttons it won't play at all.want it to go to a page outside of the flash movie. This is a swf placed in Dreamweaver the buttons need to go to other site pages.
