ActionScript 3.0 :: Saving Game Data To The Server?

Jul 22, 2009

I am working on an educational game that requires the user to enter their username and password in order to retrieve their saved game data. I know how to do this locally using the sharedObject class but I do not really understand how to do this remotely on the server. I thought maybe using remote shared objects would work but it looks to me like that only works with a flash server and data can be changed by anyone.

Professional :: Saving Data To Server Via SWF?

Jul 26, 2010

I have in mind a very basic swf file that allows someone to enter data (via dynamic text box), submit this data (via php), which in turns saves it as a file on the Server. This file (.txt) would be used to populate text on the main site. Most of this seems quite straight forward, and standard practice, apart from actually saving the data as a particular file and on the server (or overriding an existing file), which I'm sure comes up against problems such as FTP access and everything else, but I was wondering if someone might have an insight on how this could be done?

Data Integration :: Saving Data To A Local XML File?

Aug 22, 2006

I am seeing repeated comments on this discussion forum that it's not possible to save data from Flash into a locally stored XML file . . . but there must be a way to do this. Why is you can read data from a locally stored XML file but not update or add data to it. how absurd a design would that be, it simply wouldn't be logical!

ActionScript 3.0 :: Saving A Game Map To A Single String

Feb 22, 2012

I'm attempting to make a flat text file made up of game map information. I have an array of objects that I'm extracting the properties from and converting to a multidimensional array (an array of arrays). then finally imploding or joining into a single string separated by 2 glue strings.[code]The problem with the above code: The above code works but only for 3 objects or less. In order to add a forth I would need to change mapTextArray var to equal which I'm unsure how to do pragmatically and it seems there should be an entirely easier solution.[code]

Data Integration :: Creating And Saving Data

Aug 20, 2011

I'd like to know if there's a way to take data entered into a field in flash, save it, and call it later via an object.I don't want anyone to walk me through it if there is, that's not what I'm asking. I'm just asking what I need to know in order to do this. I'd like to build a certain flash app that takes information (such as a name, paragraph, and/or sentence) saves it, and can then be recalled when a user clicks a button... even if the user has closed out the application.I'm still relatively new to flash, I know enough to get by on basic projects, but I want to expand my knowledge so I don't end up stuck in a beginners rut.Would this require using PHP and Flash? Or can it be done entirely in flash via exporting data to a designated external file?

ActionScript 3 :: Writing Local File From Game Without Saving Dialog Prompt?

May 19, 2010

I'm writing a game to be run locally, on the user's computer. NOT over the internet. I want to have a file that will hold the usernames and avatar indices (they're in an array). I want to know if there's a way to write to files through Flash with AS3. I'm using CS4. I'd also like to know if you can delete files through Flash, though that's just optional.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Saving Movie Clip Positions In A Simple Drag And Drop Game

Aug 7, 2011

I have a drag and drop game where each movie clip is a word that the player has to arrange on screen in a certain order of importance - there is no snapping mechanism and the user can place the words anywhere desired.

Later in the game, I need this list of words to appear in the order that the player previously organized within a different scene.

This is an example code of how I set up the drag and drop game:

//Array to hold all the puzzle movie clip instances.
var burgerArr:Array = new Array (burger_mc, burger2_mc, burger3_mc,
burger4_mc, burger5_mc, burger6_mc, burger7_mc);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Saving Xml To Server

Nov 30, 2009

I have created an xml driven application with which the client is very happy. They currently use notepad/dw to create the xml files. They now want a "form" of some description to create the xml file to avoid writing tags and so on. I have had a good look around. There is some info about creating the xml itself in as3 (looks pretty easy), but very little about how to save that file to the clients server. I gather that the flash doesn't do this for security reasons?

My question is really this: would i be better using php to create the form for my user rather than flash as3. Or is it better to create in as3 and then append a little php to upload the doc? Or am I going abouit this the wrong way!

ActionScript 3.0 :: Program Installed On A Game Server That Outputs The Server Information?

Sep 24, 2011

I only started coding Actionscript about two weeks ago and I really need help on this, I am seriously considering just coding an if statement for each value if I can't figure this out. Sorry if my code is terrible formatted, I am self taught using Adobe Help.This is what I need help on.I have a program installed on a game server (CoD4) that outputs the server information including player(s) info and would like to be able to make it so that there is a flash document on the website displaying the information for each player. I wanted the program to build the information automatically and so far I have been able to make it work but the formatting of the output is terrible.To make things simple, the only real information I need from each player is their name and guid. Hopefully each player's info is on a new line.This is the xml document the server is outputting:HTML Code:[URL]

Code:

import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.*;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Saving BitmapData To Server As JPG

Jun 29, 2010

I'm trying to write a contest where the user can paint an outlined image I provide, and then submit it. I want it to then save the image on my server with properties so I can tell who submitted it. They will be asked to input these values of course. I looked into the JPGEncoder but could only find examples for downloading the image directly. Is there an easier way to do a contest like this? I'd rather not have them have to save the image locally and then e-mail it, as this is geared towards kids and I don't want it to be confusing.

Professional :: Saving And Loading Data To/from SWF?

Jul 23, 2010

I have created a simple flash animation for my employer. I basically have a square that changes color depending on which of three buttons are clicked. This is replicated about 30 times on the page. There is also about 15 circles that have a toggle button created so that when you click on the circle, they change between two colors. As I said, a very simple application.

Now, I need to save the data so that whenever someone new opens the swf, the current color combination is displayed. My way of thinking, with my limited AS3 experience, is that each button click, in addition to changing the color of a movie clip, should also send the data to a server. Then when someone opens the application fresh, I can use the URLLoader to load the most current data.

Am I on the right track, or am I missing it completely? I think I can figure out the URLLoader, but what code would I use to create the text file or xml file?Here is a snippet of my code:

var rtmColor:ColorTransform = f13335.transform.colorTransform;
var okColor:ColorTransform = f13335.transform.colorTransform;
var usColor:ColorTransform = f13335.transform.colorTransform;

[code].....

By clicking on either the rtm_13335, ok_13335, or us_13335 buttons, they will change the f13335 movie clip to the appropriate color (blue, green, or red). The default color is green.

What I would like to do is make the movie clip red, for example, then another person opens the swf, and the movie clip is red as opposed to the default green because I saved the current state to a text or xml file.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Saving Data Across Frames?

Dec 5, 2007

Ok here is my situation. I've developed a quiz application. Their is 30 frames. 2-29 is the presentation that contains the answers. Frame 30 has the quiz on it. When the user hits submit (once theyre all answered) and if their are wrong answers, it does not continue and it highlights the wrong questions and sets some _visible = false buttons to true. The buttons say "Review answer" which is going to take them back to the frame that has the answer and once that review is over it goes back to frame 30.

My problem is that when the user returns to the quiz frame, everything is reset. How can I store what the user has already selected so when they come back to frame 30 everything they filled out is still their?
