ActionScript 3.0 :: SWF Slowing Down Over Time Ext Loading /gc?
Nov 22, 2009
I have a main movie in which I load two types of external movies, pages and themes. My main swf slows down which each click of one of the menu items. I've tried doing and unloadAndStop for the external swf's but that does even put a dent in the flash player memory usage as shown by System.totalMemory trace.
A theme will load in an empty movie clip(acting as a container) on the stage, then a page will load in another empty movie clip on the stage. For example, pageContiainer movie clip will receive page1.swf. themeContainer will receive themeNeutral.swf.
I'm thinking this should not be an issue, as each movie clip simply receives an external swf, which is then replaced by another external swf upon a given load command. But I can't seem to get the looaded SWF(s) out of memory and the System.totalMemory just keeps going up and up.

I created a very simple application that increments a counter and displays said counter on the stage. At around 18,000-20,000 iterations, I noticed a serious drop in FPS. Here's is the entire [code]...

After noticing a gradual increase in lag in a game I'm writing,I started a brand new project and wrote this simple counter to test if it would slow down eventually as well. Unfortunately,once the count reaches about 20,000 , there is a noticeable decrease in FPS. What's going on?
Code:
var count:int = 0;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, mainLoop);
function mainLoop(e:Event):void {[code]....

I have a game built and I would like to reduce the loading time to the minimum possible.One of my ideas is to load the essential assets and some lower quality images the first time, leaving the higher quality images and some of the functionality out at first (for instance things like buttons that change the background color), and once the player enters the game, the rest of the functionality and its assets (images and sounds) will be loading in the background using the Loader class.So once the non-essential assets and the high quality images have loaded they will fade in and substitue the lower quality assets in the most subtle way possible.
Also... Would it be better to have various instances of a "Loader" class and try to load everything at once, or load stuff in order with a single instance of the "loader" class listening to the Event.COMPLETE event ?

I tried searching for an answer to this on the forums and it seems you can't duplicate a movieclip that has a dynamically loaded jpg in it, I mean you just get a duplicate empty movieclip?What I want to do is have 3 copies of a pic, each tinted a little differently, and have them converge and reveal the "composite" of this pic. Do I then have to use loadMovie 3 times?Does loading the same 50kb image at the same time mean you're actually loading 150kb?

I have a problem with the camera slowing down in my project.I thought it could be because of the complexity and memory consumtion of this work, so I created a completely new movie, typed such code:
quote:
var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
var video = new Video(camera.width, camera.height);
video.attachCamera(camera);
addChild(video);
[code]....
And... this time the camera's fps stayed 25fps all the time. To be honest - I really don't know why :| I mean, I'm happy the fps stayed stabily at the level, but I don't know what to do in the mentioned, complex, project to make the fps faster. I can't just add the trace line.

I have a slideshow on the opening page of my website and about a minute and a half in, it starts to slow way way down. It looks choppy and really bad - I had the slide in its own file and it was fine - then I made it into a single movie clip and cut and paste it into the website on the first frame so it would play automatically right away - then it started doing the slow thing when I previewed it

I have a gallery flash that loads a pictures from xml. The pic slides on from the right. When btnNext is clicked it slides off to the left and the next pic slides on from the right. There is also a btnBack which slides on the previous pic. There are around 200 pictures.
I have now spent weeks on and off trying to figure out why it slows down and starts to chug! I figured out, with the help of individuals on this forum, how to remove the pictures when they are off stage. It definitely helped but its not yet resolved.
This flash is quite processor intensive with the amount of graphics. But the thing is, when the flash start off it goes fine but after so many pictures it starts to chug. Which seems to me that there is somehting it is not GCing or something of the sort!

I'm currently creating a rewind function that makes a video go to a certain frame number when a button is clicked. The issue is that the code is shooting through the frames too quickly. Is there any way to slow this down?
Code:
stop ();
slider.minimum = 1;
slider.maximum = target.totalFrames;
slider.liveDragging = true;

Is there a way in AS to double the number of frames instead of manually going back into the movie and adding more frames or slowing down the frame rate? I need to slow this movie down, but I don't want to sacrifice quality

I have a problem with my movie clips slowing down when another movieClip is being played. I have the interface and transition completed, but everytime u click a button, the transition element moves extremely slow, because my buttons themselves contain movieClips. Is there anyway to have the movieClips move at proper speed, even if they overlap one another, and play at the same time

My UILoader component seems to only want to load one swf at a time. ie if it loads "gallery-sketches.swf" first then it wont load "gallery-graphics.swf".If it loads "gallery-graphics.swf" first than it wont load "gallery-sketches.swf". They work just fine individually but one cancels the other out when you put them together.Here are my errors (the "2","9" and "5" are tracing a random number generator and I'm 99.99% sure they have nothing to do with the error):

I have a tileList that I'm loading swfs into. One of my swfs has a particle system in it and every time it is loaded into the tilelist the particle system slows down. Every time the swfs are loaded I use tileList.removeAll() to clear it and then tileList.addItem() to repopulate the tileList. My guess is that this isn't actually unloading the swfs completely so they are building up in memory. What do I have to do to unload the swfs completely to prevent them from slowing down?

I am using the ENTER_FRAME function with Math.random to animate / simulate a random number range, as you might see in a digital voltmeter for instance.
the range goes from 12.0 to 12.9 and works good, but my problem is that i need to slow down the rate at which the numbers change.... A LOT.
Is there anyway to do this without slowing down the whole timeline???
Currently my AS is confined to the digital volt movieclip.
This is what i have:
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_EnterFrameHandler_1); function fl_EnterFrameHandler_1(event:Event):void{ var newVal:Number = 12 + (int(Math.random()*10)/10); volt.text = newVal.toString();}

I work on a PC and use flash CS3 and am truly struggling to slow down this entire file someone kindly made for me. I can move all the end key frames from 40 frames to 600 frames but it is working out how to do the others accurately plus the key frames on the arc start line which is the 3rd line down.

To cut a long story short, i'm learning flash in order to get a job in 2d interface design. I had some basic knowledge of the software prior to this, but i needed to further my animation to compliment my design skills, so bear in mind that this is my first major flash project. So far, everything was going well, and i was managing to achieve my vision so to speak, but i have hit a brick wall with this problem. The interface starts with three menu options, single player, multiplayer & settings; each staggered behind and to the right of the last. However the transition i have made between them (basic motion tween with blur filters changing slightly) stutters everytime.
I have uploaded the animation here so you can see for yourself. Also, here is a screenshot of the timeline for the first transition: It does it a little bit in the scaled down version, but if you view it full screen it really slows down. Also, if anyone can be bothered to wait through the slow stuff to see the animation that works

I have an Image gallery built where the images scroll on a loop from right to left. When you rollover the centre of the gallery it stops so that you can pause to see the image. When you roll off it then starts scrolling through the images again. how to get a motion tween on this using as2. I want it to slow gradually to a stop and then start moving gradually when you roll off.

here's my code:
Code:
var foodArray = new Array();
var loopCounter = 0;
var newNum;
[Code].....
But I get this problem in flash when I test or view the external .swf:
"A script in this movie is causing Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?" Then two buttons, "Yes" and "No".
When I click "Yes" the swf plays and my numbers in my array trace out non-repeating, the way I want, but the rest of my movie behaves funky.

I have some XML AS that creates buttons and loads data into some text fields. Also loads an image when you click a link...It works great most of the time! But I have noticed sometimes it just doesnt load the text and I need to click onto another frame and click back to make it work... I am guessing there is some small thing missing from my code?

I am loading an external swf animation and playing an audio which should be synchronized with the loaded swf i have used the loader class for loading swf and sound channel to load sound, when the audio gets fully loaded only we are calling function to load swf, at that time audio remains stopped when the swf too gets fully loaded, we are adding swf int stage and playing the audio. In local system it works fine but when we upload it its not synchronizingly properly for the first time The issue what i see is that swf (only one is there) gets loaded frome inbetween ie the first ceration animations are missing. and audio is playing from the begining why is it so....
