ActionScript 3.0 :: Classes Called Secondss To The Timeline?
Jul 25, 2011
I am trying to recieve a variable from one of my classes called secondss to the timeline.I did this using MovieClip(root).secondss = secondss; in the class.I wanted it for giving the user a different reward when finsihing the game in different amount of times.I also created a var "TotalScore" which equals gameScore + reward.
And now when I run it and finish the game I see that there's a 0 in the textfield of TotalScore and I get this output error repeatedly :TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at EasyGame/clockTime()[C:UsersAdiDesktopGamesMatch GameMatching GameEasyGame.as:178] at EasyGame/showTime()[C:UsersAdiDesktopGamesMatch GameMatching GameEasyGame.as:173]

I'm working on a flash music site ([URL]) and am trying to integrate a 480x320 .flv into a frame loop in the "game" section of the main movie. I first tried loading a .swf version of the same file but I couldn't get the file to unload and it really slowed down the performance of the main movie. That was Thursday. So I tried to use quicktime but flash CS4 no longer accepts it. All day yesterday I've been working with a .flv version (which doesn't look nearly as good) and tried to directly import it but got an error ("no such file exists") even when it's right next to the other files. With the Wizard I tried both picking the local file and assigning the URL of the file previously uploaded to my site.
So i then tried to use actionscript to load it into the actions layer on the frame at the beginning of the "game" scene which after hours of fiddling finally worked. Here's the current problem: I just want it to loop until someone clicks to go to another section but now what happens is the video and sound from the .flv keep playing even after you click on another button to navigate away from this scene. I tried online to find a way to unload the .flv but none of them worked - wen thru pages and pages of google searches but the suggested coding did not prevent the .flv from unloading.

I have a movieClip called target_mc on the main timeline... Inside that movieClip, I have four frame animation where there are aim1_mc and aim2_mc on each frame...I also have a for loop that hides aim1_mc on all the frames... It works fine on the first loop, but I see the aim1_mc of the frame 1 from the second loop...
ActionScript Code:
this.target_mc.onEnterFrame = function ()
{

On my main timeline I have an empty MC that my external swf's get loaded into once a user makes his selection from the menu.I would like to tween the load in and load out of these swfs.What is the best way to go about this?Should I add a Listener to the main timeline that listens for my MC to be called? I guess the real hangup here for me is understanding how to initiate the tween on load in and load out.

It is very frustrating that Adobe makes it incredibly difficult for an intermediate user to do such a basic thing - load a swf or flv into an fla and have it play, then stop playing when someone navigates away.

In AS1/2 I would use functions to create class-like structures;
it would be nice to be able to, for the sake of convenience, use classes on the timeline

I'm getting the classic preloader problem of having the preloader not display until a certain percentage (in this case %30) of the total file has loaded. I am importing the TweenLite class in the second frame, and I am also dynamically attaching MovieClips from the library in that frame as well. I've tried putting a frame between the preloader and the title screen and using the Publish Settings to export all the classes in frame 2, but it does not help at all.

I have the following code on the main timeline. I have soundLoad_mc assigned to the SoundChgUrl class.soundLoad_mc.mp3URL = "climbing.mp3";soundLoad_mc.swfName = "journey.swf";The code below is from SoundChgUrl. The import to mp3URL works. The one to swfName does not - it throws "1119: Access of possibly undefined property swfName through a reference with static type classes:SoundChgUrl." This doesn't make sense to me.

I have a movie clip on the main timeline called "map," w/ tons of nested clips. On an actions layer on the Main Timeline I have the following:
map.nestedClip.onRollOver = function() {
this._alpha = 50;
};
the rollover event fires, but the alpha reduction does not. I replaced the alpha = 50, with a trace statement, and was successful, plus I get the hand when I roll over the movie clip, so I know that the event is registering. However, when I place the same code directly on the instance, it works fine. I thought the only difference between placing code on the timeline and directly on an instance was a matter of convention, and that timeline code is generally a better practice.

I want to load an external swf called 'signs.swf' into an empty mc called 'signholder'.
var loadit2 = new Loader();
loadit2.load(new URLRequest("signs.swf"));
signholder.addChild(loadit2);
Everything works. Cool. But, I now want to target something within the signs.swf. How do I do it though? What is the path? Do I have to give the child of signholder an instance name? Everything I try fails.
If I wanted the root timeline of the external swf to gotoAndPlay(2) for example,...would i say...
signholder.loadit2.gotoAndPlay(2) ???
var wow:MovieClip = loadit2.content as MovieClip;
wow.gotoAndPlay(2) ????

}
IT DRAGS ALL 4 MOVIECLIPS.

I have a wordpress based site that stores information about an image in a database field called "background" in a table called "wp_postmeta".The 'loader' gets an url such as "/thisImage/background.swf"The "background.swf" should somehow display "background.jpg" instead but since I've changed the field name in the database (from background to temp_background) it doesn't work.I pass variables to the "loader" swf and they are correct based on the new field name but it still isn't working.I need to know if there is anything in the .fla's (and therefore the .swfs) that is pointing to somewhere in the database hard-coded. Basically I need someone to look at them and tell me how they are working.

Is there any way to auto-import as3 classes (internal/intrinsic Flash Player classes at least) using Emacs ?
Looked for as3-mode and actionscript-mode but nothing working was found. as3-mode can import class if it is opened in buffer (but not *.mxml files)

The examples I'll use don't do anything - they're classes without ANY members - no variables, methods, anything.
Let's say I extends Sprite and call it MySprite.
I save it in test.core
[code]...
Now I create another custom class called MyWindow that extends MySprite.
I save it in test.windows
[code]...
Then I create another class that extends MyWindows (the example I'll use is a document class - but that doesn't matter - I've tested using an instance too).
[code]...
Notice that I'm not even trying to instantiate the helper classes - just having them there throws the error.
If there is only a single helper class, everything runs fine.
Also note that - as far as I can tell - this only happens when extending one class from another package, then extending that class with more than one helper object.I'm pretty sure there's no namespace bumps or typographical errors, as this is a very pared-down version of the original application.
EDIT: seems the problem exists even without the crossing packages - even extending MySprite in the document class with multiple internal classes generates this error.

I am creating a library in AS3. Inside the library I make use of a bunch of classes/packages that need not be exposed to the end user of my lib. I want to only expose one of these classes.
I guess my questions are:
1) How are libraries commonly distributed in AS3?
2) Is there a .jar equivalent in AS3 that developers can include, but will only have access/knowledge of the classes I've declared as public?

I'm trying to import a class from a class that is located in another folder. How do you move up a directory? Using./ or ../ doesn't seem to work. Essentially I want to access a TweenLite Class but not from the document class. My class is at com/myName and the class I want to access is at com/TweenLite. import ../TweenLite doesn't work... I realize I could just copy and paste the entire Tweenlite folder again, but there's got to be a less duplicative way of doing this..

inheritance and building classes from other classes.
I have 3 classes:
gfxRoomText - changeable colour
gfxRomInter - changeable colour - interactive
gfxRoomImg - interactive - only image / no colour
The first two incorporate the same text field and functions to change colour. The second and third incorporate another class to interactive with. What is the best way of creating these classes using inheritance and how?

I am new to classes and I am just starting to follow tutorials on how to assign classes and sub classes and I am wondering when you assign a base class or class to an object(Symbol e.g movieclip) through the properties, are all instances on the stage no matter how many and what they are named influenced and is the Stage/main timeline always the parent? and just one more question, is the parents objects display list all the movieclips that are used on the stage or all the instances on the stage?
