ActionScript 3.0 :: Finding A Free Working Highscore System For Adobe Air IOS?
Jan 5, 2012
I used to use Mochi Leaderbords before starting coding Adobe Air games for iPhone and Android. As the Mochi API doesn't have mobile support I had to find something else and found Playtomic. Playtomic is great and easy to use, BUT it's constantly down My players are complaing on how often the highscore server is down. For me it's like 6/10 times I try to view scores that it doesn't show.alternative free highscore system that works with Adobe Air for mobile?
I know how to make a highscore system within a movie, but how do I make a highscore system in Flash that relflects all the highest scores from everyone acroos the internet who has played my game, not just on a single computer. I know it has something to do with PHP. I know the basics of HTML and XML and I am at an intermediate level in Actionscript.
I'm very new to AS3, slowly crawling my way over from AS2. Starting from a central square Sprite, I want to randomly add squares to any of the available sides, as per this handy diagram: The basic code I've scratched up is below, which just tweens out three squares from the central square. I'd like each newly-created square to potentially spit out up to two squares at a time, if two free sides are available.
I have a FMS 3.5 installed on windows 2003 server, with a NFS file system.Both the application directory and the data directory is on the network file system.Every two weeks the system became unstable because the Free system PTEs go under 2000.The only strange thing i've noticed is that the Virtual size of the FMScore grows to about 1.300.000K after few hours from the reboot of the machine and stay to this value indipendently from the load of the server, In another FMS installed on a machine without the network file system this value is 16.800 K.
i am writing a program that need to load photoshowever, there is limitation in flex that users cannot load photos with pixel above 4069 x 4069 into a bitmapdata.how can i check photos pixel before running to error? since some pictures are big nowadays, i would llike to check the user`s system memory and free harddisk space. See if the computer have enough space to load the photos.
Is there an alternative for System.TotalMemory in actionscript 2.0?I would like to know how much memory is used by flash players.Also is it possible to clear the memory.
I have tried to install adobe 9 five times now (free trial). I have disabled norton, disabled pop-ups, downloaded from Firefox and the same message: the wizard was interrupted before adobe acrobat 9 could finish the install.
suppose I have an AS3 app made using FlashDevelop (I don't have the expensive IDE). Now I want to turn it into AIR app to deploy it on mobile or run it on the desktop or whatever. So how do I do that? Is there a free conversion utility? Or would I need to either buy some IDE or else get somebody else with a license do the conversion for me?
I have a flash project, its working fine in local system, but the same file is not working in live here is the link of the site, its showing blank page, the flash contents are not loading... [URL]
I have a flash project, its working fine in local system and checked this file with uploading in someother websites, its working fine there too, but the same file is not working in live here is the link of the site, its showing blank page, the flash contents are not loading.URL...and here the same file which i have uploaded it in other server its working fine.URL...
I'm working on an AIR app that will have a free basic version and a more advanced paid version that's unlocked with a license key. Ideally once a license key is entered I'd like it to unlock the application for all users of the computer. However, I haven't been able to find a suitable system-wide location for storing the license key file. All of the preconfigured locations in the File class (e.g. File.applicationStorageDirectory) are either user-specific or read-only.
Is there a standard system-wide location in AIR where I can store things like this? If not the file system, maybe shared objects, or SQLite, or the encrypted local store? Failing that, are there standard locations on each system (Windows, Mac, Linux) that I could hardcode that are guaranteed to be writable by all users? The last option is made more difficult by the lack of access to any environment variables.
If all else fails I guess I could just require the application to be unlocked per-user, but that doesn't sound like a recipe for happy customers ("What do you mean I have to buy it twice for my wife to use it? We only have one computer!"). (Okay, yes, it it's per-user I'll probably let one key unlock the app 3 or 4 times to be nice about it, but it's still less convenient for the user to activate multiple times).
I'm building an Adobe AIR desktop app with Flash CS5 that makes a lot of use of bitmapdata, bytearrays and base64 strings. After a while the memory usage of the app doubles. Is it recommended to use system.gc() to free memory at that point or is that bad practice?
I'm considering using Adobe Air to write an application for the android marketplace.I was wondering if anyone could tell me what (if any) the limitations are with regard to getting / handling system events.For instance can you pause the app if the user receives a text message?Or detect if they have their music playing and mute your app's sounds?It would seem a real pity if Air cannot do this.
I've found several examples and documentation that show how to read and write files on the system, but all show user intervention or reading/writing files in user profile directories. There are a few things I want to do:
Monitor system and other application log files for changes, then automatically load those files when changes occur Reload a previously open file when the application launches Write files into a log directory, which probably will not exist in the same path as the application.
In my very quick search, it seems that there may be a security model that constrains an AIR application's access to the file system, so that files can only be read or written to directories selected by the user with the file system dialog OR files can be written within the user profile or air application directory.
Does an Adobe Air application have unconstrained access to the file system?
I'm trying to access local file system from Flex web application. I know it is pretty difficult, but I think there must be a way. Is there a way that Flex app can use AIR components or maybe web application can call some AIR module in order to choose files and upload?
I am making a game in AS3 / Adobe AIR that requires the user to react to certain sounds. Is there a way to inform the user up front if the system volume is muted? Moreover, is there a method to change the volume? If not, does an external cross-platform application exist that lets me monitor the volume and that I can call from Adobe AIR?
Possible Duplicate: Lint tool for actionscript? I'm looking for source code quality tool (others call it "static analysis" tools) for Adobe Flash. Something like JSLint for JavaScript or JLint for Java.
In Python there is a function: os.system(command) that runs the command passed by parameter in the command line, there is something similar in AS3 (or MXML) running an Adobe AIR Desktop Application?
I've recently switched to CS4 and AS3. There is a couple of nice features in AS3. However,the more I do hacking (certainly you can't call it programming) the more frustrated I'm with AS3.Here is the most stupid thing I found so far.
Put this code in: for (var i:Number=0; i<10; i++) {
Does anyone know if adobe flash player cache data is available to other users on a system? For example: A user logs onto Windows XP, then uses my adobe flex application... and in the process of doing so downloads the signed flex lib... He then decides to mow the lawn and log off. At about 3pm the same day, his Mum can't hear the TV over the sound of the mower, so she decides to log in using a different XP user account. She proceeds to use the very same flex application. Does she also need to download the flex lib again, or would the data already be cached in the flash player?
I am looking for utility/helper classes for Adobe AIR/actionscript 3.0 file system and native process utilization. Could someone point me to opensource library projects specific to Adobe AIR..
Essentially I want to set up a system where a I have a bunch of subclasses that all end up doing the same thing, so I declare a base class that has some pretty basic functions. Here is my code:
Each class that will extend the BaseClass has a 'mouth' movieclip inside of it, though I have not set up a movieclip for the BaseClass. It looks good in theory, but of course I get an error:
Code:BaseClass, 1120: Access of undefined property mouth 'Automatically declare stage instances' is checked, so I'm not sure what else to do here.
