ActionScript 3.0 :: Chimney Smoke Animation?
Nov 25, 2009
i have a problem with an animation i'm trying to do: i am searching for a way to animate chimney smoke. i don't want to make a realistic chimaney smoke, rather a cartoon type.here is a picture with the chimney and the smoke...http:[url]....
can the flowing of that smoke be animated through as3, or should it just be plain animation in flash? with shape tweening it got rather strange at some point. im not specialized in doing animation (like cartoons animation) and im havin difficulties identifying the shapes the smoke should have as it goes from the chimney up into the sky.

I'm trying to convert some actionscript 2.0 to actionscript 3.0. It's part of a smoke animation. I have it working perfectly using the actionscript 2.0 that was supplied, but have no idea how to get it to 3.0. Here's the original code:
fadeSpeed = 1.15; // Smoke fade speed.
floatUpSpeed = 1.75; // Smoke float up speed.
// Every frame attach a puff of smoke.

I found this effect in a google search, it looks great until it starts slowing down everything:this code is put in Frame one of a MovieClip.aPuff is a MovieClip of a gradient filled circle.
Code:
fadeSpeed = 1.5; // Smoke fade speed.
floatUpSpeed = 2; // Smoke float up speed.

how to make realistic smoke / fog. All the tutorials I have seen are ok, but not exactly what I am looking for. I want to know how to make the smoke look like its reacting to the resistance of air thus changing the shape of the smoke as it moves and what not. [URL]Notice how the smoke is going down and also to the right. The smoke moving downward even reacts to the flow stream of the one going to the right and slightly alters its movement ( as if it was hitting a current in water ).

I'm trying to create a smoke effect that will run in background of a microsite portal. I needs to be pretty big compared to the use we see everywhere of particle smoke effects usign PNG or flash 8 filters.Here's what I came with so far playing with some flash 8 filters but the solution still doesn't perform well enough, especially when we add the other div layers over the animation. I car emore about style that realism, that's why I like this approach, witch let me used a prerendered image for my smoke textureAnyone have some techniques or approach to suggest that could make this project possible? The way it is right now, almost no computer will be able to run it at a decent framerate.

I have two layers, one on the bottom (the background) with some buttons on it. The second one, on top, is a movieclip of some smoke that is passing over the background... (to still see the background, I set the smoke layer to Screen - blending mode). So now I can see both layers. but of course the buttons dont work anymore because of the layer that is on top... Now, the question is, how can I disable the smoke layer to access to the buttons? There is a way to do that?

How to make this smoke effect work without mouse input. I am trying to have it spill from the end of a cannon, & my attempts to modify the position have resulted in all my bitmaps shifting. I changed this
doTrail(_root, _xmouse, _ymouse, currentBitmap);
To this
doTrail(_root, _x=80, _y=100, currentBitmap);

I'm going to use a particle system to create some smoke to simulate the tattoo burning into his skin. I can do that part just fine.What I'm not sure about is how to make the smoke only come from the "inked" part of the tattoo.I'm assuming I have to cast the tattoo as a BitMap and then run some sort of logic to see if a pixel exists and if so, to generate my smoke.Just not sure how to do that. The smoke generation I can do...it's the other part with the pixel bitmap thing that I'm confused about.

I have a movieclip that shows an animation onRollOver and an animation on RollOut but onRelease the animation enlarge itselfs but now when I'll roll out when the animation isn't open (so i didn't release) the animation plays the animation for the minimizing of the animation. Here's my code (I know its a bit amateuristic but I'm not a programmer )

ok lets say you create a button that when held down play an animation of 20 frames if realsed it goes to frame one and stops if held down it plays out this animation. for the topic lets say you have a fire animation and you want the fire to apear and if the user hold its down the animation reaches the end of the time line and loops back and plays the last 5 frames of the animation and as soon as it is let go it goes to and stops at frame one. Well i know how to make a button that when held down plays out an animation. And i know how to say when released goes to and stops at frame one. What i dont know how to do is to loop the fire at the last 5 or 6 frames so the user can hold it down all day long and play out that animation.

so I have a looping animation that is several frames long. Inside the animation is a button, when pressed I want to go to another part of the timeline, where another animation is waiting. Simple, I got that working no problem. But... I need the first animation to go to the last frame in the loop before starting the next animation. The way I have it now makes an ugly cut, and the transition between animations isn't seamless.

I made an animation in Flash which I want to embed in Flex using SWFloader.
I've imported the tweener class (caurina.transitions.*) to tween a rotation. The animation runs perfectly in Flash.
However, when I embed the animation in Flex, the tweening is gone.
Do I need to import the tweener class in Flex?
I use Flash Player 10 (latest version), Flash CS4 Professional version 10.0.02, IE8 and Flex Builder 3.

I have a certain set of motion twains that I've successfuly completed, they constantly loop right now (default), and is saved in the SWF file.I'd like to take that finished looping animation, and insert it within another animation (a) that can be played with a play button, and stopped/resetted with a stop button.How do I insert the completed looping animation into the main animation? And is there something special I have to do in the actionscript of the start and stop buttons so that the "inner" looping animation will start and stop with the "outer" main animation?

I have created two buttons (Button1 and Button2). When you click Button1, an animation pops up. You click on the animation to close it - that works fine. If I then click on Button1 again to replay the animation, the animation does not show. If I click on Button2 THEN go back to click on Button1, the animation plays. Why can I not click that same button twice in a row? What am I doing wrong?

im trying to do is have a button that shows an animation (created by a duplicateMovieClip function) with onRollOver and stops the animation with onRollOut. It works when i roll over and it stops when i roll out, but then it continues in a loop up to the point where i rolled out (instead of cutting off completely as i would like). Id be extremely grateful if you could tell me where im going wrong.

I was able to create an animation which only runs when I place my cursor over the animation box.The animation stops playing when I remove the cursor off the animation box.I was able to do this using button rollovers.How do I apply a URL link to this animation.When I place my curser over the animation box it plays,and when I click on the animation box I would like it to link to a web page.

On a horizontal bar, text scrolls from left to right, continuously. The text is a fixed string of city names, and I've made it so that it loops nicely. This horizontal bar with scrolling text is part of a vertical animation, scrolling the bar in and out of view. The vertical tween starts after two seconds. When the vertical tween starts, the horizontal animation has started as well. At the beginning and end of the vertical tween, the horizontal tween starts over. I want it to continu.

I have an 2 animations that I need to syncronize. The first animation is a projector screen entering stage, the second is few text layers and images. I timed the second animation 2.2 sec after the screen animation starts (using timer event) and it worked. When I tested it in other computers and on the internet the screen movment was much slower so the second animation entered the stage too fast.
I want to order the second animation to enter only when the projector screen reach it's destination on stage. The screen animations has 2 parts, in animation and out animation connected by a stop(); commend in the middle.

After reading some articles about increasing performance, I read that if you would cache your movieclip animation to a sequence of bitmaps, that this would be much faster. So after spending lots of hours I created a bitmap animation class that converts a movieclip to a bitmapanimation.When I completed it, and did a performance test with about 40 movieclips on a stage size of (1024x900) and set the frameRate to 100 fpsIt runned on 58 frames per second. (30 mb memory) But when I tested it without converting it to bitmaps by doing it the old and simple way of adding the movieclip dynamically on the stage withalso 40 movieclips, it runned even better (61 fps). (4mb) And it did not use so much memory as the bitmap approach was doing.
Then I thought perhaps I was doing something wrong with convertinh to Bitmaps, and found on the internet also a Bitmap Animation Class, and after testing this one, I got the same result. It seems to run faster if you don't convert it to a bitmap sequence.I only have experienced negative points, like slower framerates, using more memory, and the prerendering causes a calculation performance pause when compileing. (this is even with the fix to pass the already rendered frames of the movieclip to the next bitmap animatioin class) I am now confused of what is the best way of creating better pefromance when using the same movieclip animation (like 80 times at once).

I need to do a good animation for school to pass my subject and I have done several animations. I thought maybe I do an animation with different choices. Basically you have the "Home" Screen and then you chose one and an animation is been played. Then when I press another button, a different animations is being played.

I have several MCs on the stage. Each have a basic animation. They have a button embedded so I can click on them. When I click on the first MC it starts animating. When I click on another MC I need the first animation to stop. Is there a stop command I can put in there that stops the other animation before starting its animation?

Note: I am only using the Flash animation in IE only as I created an equivalent, jQuery based animation for all other browsers (because, surprise, IE didn't handle the jQuery version).look at this in IE only.The Problemhen you hover over the dropdown menus, the Flash animation temporarily "freezes" and the continues. This causes choppy behavior in the Flash animation.
