ActionScript 3.0 :: Turn Crank - Can't Get To Update At The Same Time As The Actual Rotation
Nov 30, 2009
I've been experimenting with a crank that you can turn with the mouse which is supposed to make things gradually change on the stage. Everything is going smoothly, except that when the crank makes a full rotation, its angle returns to 0. I've added an AccumulatedAngle variable to keep track of this, but I can't get it to update at the same time as the actual rotation. What I'm getting is brief moments where the totalAngle value is 360 above what it should be, and the objects on screen update with that value, causing them to jump around on the screen and then jump back each time the crank makes a full rotation. I've tried moving around the order of the variable updates and I've tried moving when the boxes are updated, even putting them inside the if statements that change the crank's angle. I just can't figure this one out.

I plan to use a timer event to fire every second (for a clock application).
I may be wrong, but I assume that there will probably be a (very slight) sync issue with the actual system time. For example the timer event might fire when the actual system time milliseconds are at 500 instead of 0 (meaning the seconds will be partially 'out of phase' if you will).
Is there a way to either synchronize the timer event to the real time or get some kind of system time event to fire when an second ticks in AS3?
Also if I set a Timer to fire every 1000 milliseconds, is that guaranteed or can there be some offset based on the application load?

I have built a flash video player where-in the player is sending some data to the back-end at periodic intervals. Now I have been asked to send the actual amount of time the video was played. I cannot send netstream.time value in this case.Because the user may watch a video for first 5 mins and then seek to the say 30th minute and then close the video. So here the netstream.time value is 30 minutes whereas the actual playtime of the video is just over around 5 mins. I am not sure if the Flash media server maintains this actual playtime of a video. If it does how can I access this? And if it doesn't whats the best way to get the actual play-time?

I would like to implement an inspection time task using Actionscript. The idea is to dynamically change the time interval between masked and unmasked images based on user responses. The "inspection time" is defined as the interval at which the user achieves certain accuracy. There are various factors affecting the accuracy of that interval: monitor refresh rate, flash vm frame rate, Timer event accuracy, render time. Anything else? How do I determine the actual inverval the user sees? High accuracy is required, since typical performance is from 20 to 80 msec on that task. I assume the limiting factor is the monitor refresh rate. If it's 60Hz, I would only be able to increment by 16.7msec.

I'm trying to recreate an animation like this in Flash CS5. Is it possible to simply lock the push rod (red) to the rotating wheel (yellow) so that I don't have to go through frame by frame repositioning it?Is it possible to have the push rod slide through the slider tube automatically (Green) again so I don't have to reposition frame by frame.

How can I update two mysql databases (on two servers) at the same time. DO I need to give permission to send data? E.g. The swf is in server A and I want to post data to 2 databases in server A and server B. But when I do it only updates in server A. Nothing goes to server B. How can I do this? Is this got to do with php?
<?php
//SERVER A
$link = mysql_connect("localhost","abc","abc1");
mysql_select_db("my_db1");
$query = "INSERT INTO abc_db(subject, links) VALUES('$hsubjects','$link')";
$result = mysql_query($query);

If I have an FLV that I've output as SWF with skin to have embedded into an HTML page, and now a 'skip intro' is needed - though I'd have to make note of the actual time or keyframe in which the intro completes...How is this possible? Clearly, a button would need to be added for that kind of interactivity?

Banging My Sore head for 2 days.I've been through the excellent thread on photo gallerys featuring Scott on crank and have finally pulled most of my head out, but I desperately need a bit of assistance. Have posted a photo gallery sans photo's running off an xml file based on the V3 photogallery.
Here is where I'm having prob's:
1. For some reason, the first photo in the xml datebase (pic1.jpg) does not load when button#1 is pressed. The gallery starts with #2? I just don't understand why.
2. On load, the preload bar is presend even though i've got visible = 0.
3. The BIG one. Right now I've got an empty frame for my thumb buttons. What I really want to do is have a single button prototype that duplicates itself and externally loads a thumb*.jpg rather than placing each thumb*.jpg on each button manuelly. There was an example on the same thread, but I was unable to combine the two.

I was wondering if there is anyway to retrieve the time of the last flash update.
So I'm not looking for the flashversion but perhaps something like a timestamp of when it was updated.

I'm just wondering, how would I go about making a counter in ASC3 count more then once?
Because,
counter++ updates once,
but counter+2 gives you some kind of error.
counter+1 also gives you error.

I'm working on a flash navigation piece for a website that involves a "viewmaster" reel that rotates when you mouse down on a button, and then stops when you mouse up. The problem I'm having is that every succesive time I mouse down, the rotation speed increases. Here is my code:
var timer:Timer = new Timer(30);
paintingRotateBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUS E_DOWN, paintingRotate, false, 0, true);
paintingRotateBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUS E_UP, paintingRotateStop, false, 0, true);

I am trying to build a search angine for an application I am developing. I need my list to update itself every time there is a change in the Input Text box (backspace or additional character). I have no errors but the function does not work the way I want it to.
The function compares letters in a specific position within my 2 strings (charAt(j)) and disregards the previous letters, plus it deos not "update" but only adding new strings to my list.

OK my project uses an xml file called Chart-app.xml inside this XML file there is a tag called <version></version> which I keep in the format like: <version>1.2.128</version> I am wondering if I can set it to append to the third number every time I run my project. So if I ran it now it would be 1.2.129, then if i ran it again it would be 1.2.130

Clearer Description :
State 1 : Has a form, in which I enter some data value for 3 boxes.
State 2 : Has 3 boxes, who have to change in color based on what values were entered in State 1.
Purpose : User 1 will enter data in with State 1 open, while User 2 should be able to see the dynamic/real-time effect while he is in State 2.

I'll start off by saying I'm a newbie, just putting that out there. How do you make a turn by turn multiplayer flash game? I don't know if an engine is made in AS3, PHP, Javascript, or whatever,I made my game already, it's just that it isn'tmultiplayer yet. Basically, there are lines, and each player crosses out a number of lines, and the last player to cross out a line is the loser. I want it where one user crosses out some lines, then presses End Turn, then the other does their turn and then presses End Turn to allow the other player to move his cursor. But how can I get both players to see the same frame and only have one player have the ability to move the cursor during a turn? Is there some easily adaptable multiplayer engine for flash for newbies out there

I know this is one of those taboo things to ask, but I am all out of ideas. I have an online eLearning Module I created a few months ago. Its working great everything is wonderful. I am now working on a new one and I can for the life of me NOT make the stupid thing update the "complete" status at the proper time...
I ALSO can not find my original FLA file so I can see what I did in the ActionScript to make it work. I am positive I am missing something stupid but I have NO idea what it is. does anybody know of a good Flash Decompiler. I'm more then happy to chat with anybody to verify I am the creator of BOTH movies if your concerned about that ...

I'm trying to do some augmented reality projects with flartoolkit . I can now put simple 3d objects on my marker and it works fine , but I wanna give my project some events that the user can interact with. I'm trying to trace the rotation of the marker. there's a container:DisplayObject3D which my application uses to add the 3d objects , I traced this :"trace(container.rotationZ)" but it's just returning 0 . I studied another AR application's source code and it was using the rotation of it's container object without problem .and I think I should mention that I'm using the exercise file of seb lee delisle papervision3d course from [URL]. anyone has any experience with flartoolkit? the main functions of my my code is as below:

Is it possible to have the child movieclip rotate separate of the rotation properties assigned to the parent? so ultimately giving the child element it's own axis?I've customized Lee Brimelows (gotoandlearn.com) 3D carousel to spin on the x axis to make it a vertical carousel. I've also rotated that by 45 degrees on the y axis to see all the items, and wrote a snippet of code to hide the left portion of the carousel. The entire carousel is contained within the 'container' movieclip, and inside of that are my carousel items (as seen below), with the larger item being the item in focus.
On rollover of the item in focus, I want to rotate it so it faces the viewer (as seen below),basically removing the 45 degree rotation applied to the container.The problem i'm running into is when you rotate the container (changing the rotationX of the container), the axis basically rotates with it, so when i rollover the next item 'in focus', the following happens..(in the example where it appears how it want it to, the carousel is at a rotationX of 0, so it works fine)

I am deploying Updates via SCUP and SCCM to hundreds of Computers. Fortunately Adobe provides an SCCM Update Catalog for both Adobe Flash ActiveX and Adobe Flash Plugin. But now my Problem: After publishing the Update via SCCM, the client is not supposed to be interfered with the Update Progress (which is working) I figured the Updater works like this: First SCCM checks if a Update needs to be deployed, if this is the case, The Flash Updater begins. First the old Flash Version is beeing uninstalled. But now: if the Client has a Browser Window (IE, or Firefox) open, the Updater is not able to install the new Flash Version and quits with an Error. This leaves the Client PC without any Flash (because its being uninstalled before) How can I prevent Flash being uninstalled due to the Update progress not working while a Browser window is open?

Program A has a cannon that aims to line up with where-ever the mouse is pointing, in 360 degrees, and fires when the mouse is is clicked. Program B has an eye instead of a cannon that should in theory do similar functions when the capslock key is toggled, but instead only has a 90 degree range of motion from the Right of the eye toward the bottom (quadrant 4 only). Where did the ther 270 degrees of rotation disappear to?
