ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash - Slower In Browser Than In The Dev IDE?
Jul 17, 2009Ive been working on a game on and off for a while now. I've been extremely conscious with the performance because in my book a slow game is worse than no game at all. I even wrote a profiler class so I can really pinpoint any slow code. All this time Ive just been testing the game in the Flash CS3 environment by hitting CTRL+Enter. And everything runs quite smoothly.But today for the heck of it I actually published the Flash and ran it in my browser using the generated HTML file. In the browser everything runs slow as hell! The animation is extremely choppy, and sounds play up to 1 or 2 seconds later than theyre supposed to. This is absolutely unacceptable! Ive tried it in Firefox3 and Internet Explorer 7, and both are very slow compared to the Flash dev environment

Feb 10, 2012Click on any of the 3 circles to make them animation in/out. Notice how there is bad choppiness when they animate.I don't have this problem (or at least its very minor) when playing the file locally through Test Movie or in the standalone flash player.Only noticeable when playing it on my web server in the browser.Is this an aliasing issue?Is my web server not powerful enough to play it?
View 1 RepliesProfessional :: Slower And Slower Over Time?
Sep 21, 2011I have a dashboard I created using Flash CS5 using CS5.5 and ActionScript 3.It seems that while this dashboard is running, the FPS gets slower and slower over time (over several hours) I am thinking that I might have a memory leak but I am not sure how to find out.The project is a Flash Projector exe that loads 8 independent swfs.Each swf file essentially calls a web service and gets XML dataThey then dynamically create a bunch of TextFields,assigns an event listener (Event.ENTER_FRAME) and animates across the screen.When the TextField goes off the screen, I clean up the Text field by removing the EventListenerremoving the TextField and setting the TextField to null.

Professional :: Starling Or Stage3D For Android And IOS?
Jan 23, 2012Does Stage3D work on mobile devices? If so - then HOW? I have worked through several tutorials, downloaded SDKs, added tweaky complier directives to profiles and wonked XML files till I am REMOVED blue in the face. I have had success making web based SWFs (from the afore mentioned tutorials) in Flash & Flash Builder - but no luck getting Stage3D to run in an Android Air App. Is there any way to use Stage3D (preferably also Starling) in a Mobile APP? It could be from Flash 5.5 or Flash Builder.
View 1 RepliesProfessional :: .SWF Does Not Render After Load Stage3D And DirectX
Oct 21, 2011I have a custom rolled COM component that encapsulates and controls the Shockwave Player, in order to run, and be able to communicate with Flash .SWFs as a UI to my DirectX based game. The component works fine, however my problem is that my flash artist wants to be able to use Stage3D now. After attempting to load a Stage3D .SWF I noticed that the .SWF does not render. I have discovered that this is due to the new hardware acceleration that Stage3D uses, (which due to the HRESULT on my CreateDevice() Call I assume to be DirectX) .
In an attempt to work around this issue I have a few questions, both on Stage3D and the Shockwave Player. The first question is this: Is there any way in flash or through the shockwave control to disable the hardware acceleration in Stage3D? (this would be the least prefered solution as flash finally being based in the video card hardware make everyone happy.) The second question is: Does anyone know if there is an IUnknown GUID, or other way that I can query to get the device/rendering context that the Shockwave Player / Stage3D is using?
Professional :: Building For Stage3D - Can't Find Latest Api
Oct 28, 2011I've got Flash CS5.5 and am trying to build a sample Away3D 4 model viewer. I must not have the latest api for fp11, because the compiler comes back with this:
"Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: TextureBase"
The file "RendererBase.as" from the Away3D library is importing a number of files from the flash.display3D package (including TextureBase), which apparently I don't have.
I downloaded the latest debug version of flash player 11, what else do I have to do?
Compile To Flash Player 11.2 To Use The New Features Like Stage3D?
Apr 12, 2012So there's a lot of great new features supported by Flash Player 11.2, particularly for game development which is great news for myself.
Some reading here. Highlights:
Right-click is enabled now (finally). Much better rendering performance.
This is all wonderful and magical, however I can't work out how to compile to Flash Player 11.2, and can't find much information about it.
In publish settings, this is all I get:
Using Flash CS5.5 Version 11.5.1.349 (latest).
Do I need to wait for CS6 or am I missing something?

View 7 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Stage3D In Flash Player 11 Doesn't Display?
Oct 4, 2011I'm trying to write a 3D game in ActionScript 3.0 using the Stage3D API. I've copied the playerglobal.swc in my frameworks/libs/player/11.0 directory, and modified the frameworks/flex-config.xml file by changing the target-player to 11.0.0 and the swf-version to 13.When I compile my ActionScript 3.0 files using mxmlc I set the options -target-player=11.0.0 and -static-link-runtime-shared-libraries=true. Now, I don't get an error at compile time when importing com.adobe.utils.AGALMiniAssembler or flash.display.Stage3D so I assume that there's no problem with that.
I run the compiled SWF file in Opera, and I'm using the latest Flash Player (version 11.0.1.152) which was publicly released today (cheers ;D). There's seems to be no problem with the player because I can play Zombie Tycoon. However, when I play my SWF file the Stage3D doesn't display; but all the other display objects attached to the stage do display.I believe that there's either some problem with my configuration or my code, but I can't pinpoint it. The code I'm using was simply copied from Labs @ Jam3. I believe that there was some problem with the viewport, so I simply replacedI have been searching for a solution all over the web, but I can't seem to locate it.
How To Toggle Stage3D Between Full And Standard Screen Mode
Dec 21, 2011I'm testing a few things with the ND2D library (made by NullDesign, engine's source available at github). What I've encountered, is that if I toggle my Flash application to Fullscreen mode, the World2D (or Stage3D / Context3D buried inside it) doesn't auto-stretch to maximize it to the entire screen resolution. Do I need to reinitialize my setup to the new Fullscreen dimensions? What if the stage.scaleMode is set to "NO_SCALE"? Will that affect the dimensions since the stage, although appearing larger, will still retain the same coordinate system and dimensions? How to correctly toggle Fullscreen mode in Stage3D?

Oct 13, 2011I've looked at the following website for some information on writing AGAL to render Textures / Bitmaps to the Stage3D object: url...But it seems to cover more about how to create objects in 3D space. Maybe it can't be avoided?What would be the bare-bone necessary AGAL code & AS3 code to write to render multiple sprites to the Stage3D?No Filters, Effects or Shaders required - just position, scale and rotation transformations. Also, I'm not looking for existing 3rd party APIs that do this under the hood. I would like to experiment this low-level language myself.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: App Keeps Getting Slower And Becomes Useless
Mar 10, 2009I have a simple application where you can sort isometric boxes on a grid. It works just fine but the more often you apply changes (i.e. click on a box and drag and drop it) the slower the app gets. After about 10 changes it has something like a 5 second delay in response and becomes completely useless.
As long as I stay on the first MOUSE_DOWN it works as fast as it should, but speed decreases with every click. Strangely CPU-levels will always return to near zero when I stop doing things in the app and always go up to the same level when working, so I do not think it that there is some procedure I call while dragging and forget to close again (I also checked this about a hundred times in the code).
Basically I think it must something with the most basic event listeners that look like this:
Code:
container.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropElement);
container.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragElement);
function dragElement(e:Event):void{
currentElement = currentDropTarget = previousDropTarget = Kiste(e.target);
currentElement.alpha = 0.5;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, whileDrag);
}function dropElement(e:Event):void{
currentElement.alpha = 1;
stage.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,whileDrag);
}
I also checked if my "whileDrag"-function keeps running but it doesn't.

View 2 RepliesMac Plays Timeline Animation Slower Than PC?
Jan 24, 2010I have an issue with how Macs play timeline animation slower than PC. On the PC the animation plays right and syncs correctly with the music.
I have a tree that grows, when it finished an axe chops it. The tree finishes and the axe starts chopping the tree at exactly 30 seconds into the song which is exactly how it is meant to happen.
Syncs right on PC but on Mac, the tree finishes and the axe starts chopping at 50 seconds into the song.
During the tree animation, I also have some other swf movies loading in the background so that it is preloaded and ready to go when required because I am trying to prevent any delays or the chance of a preloader from appearing when these swf needs to start playing.
What is causing the Mac to have a slower animation. I do notice in general than Macs take longer to play an animation than PC on a browser.
Is this just natural or do you think the Mac and PC difference caused here is due to me loading swf movies into the background?
What are my options to make the sync right. I can not make the animation actionscript based, so I am stuck with timeline based animation.
I think music streaming would be the best solution here. Right now, I am triggering the music as an event, but I am worried of the stuttering effect using streaming music, while my animation plays and swfs are loading in the background and the viewer has a slow PC.
Flex :: Flash Runs Slower On Mac?
Jan 27, 2010I was in the middle of developing a Flex applcation, and then I recently switched from Windows XP to Mac. My app is noticeably less responsive on my Mac than on Windows, and today I proved it's not a hardware issue, because I ran the App on my Mac and a Window XP on Virtual Box side by side, and IS much more responsive on XP. Things like repainting in response to window resizing, selecting/unselecting list items, scrolling up and down(I do have complicated list-item-renderers). Has anyone seen this as well? Is flex/flash just not as well supported on Mac? Or are there tweaks I can do to improve performance on the Mac?
