Is there a simple gotoAndPlay code to tell a scene what scene to go upon completition?I know they automatically go to the next scene in the timeline, but I have multiple scenes that I want to play through and all link to the same scene. I want to do this without a stop(); and without the user having to click a button or movieclip...
View 1 RepliesI have a video that starts after an introduction is played.it plays fine but my members are asking for a non autoplay video. So I'm trying to put a "start video" button or movieclip to start the video manually.
View 1 Replieshi i am having trouble getting my buttons to work right in flash cs4. is it possible to have a button gotoandplay a frame inside a different movieclip? if so how?
View 2 Repliesive made a simple game for a uni project, when you get game over a movieclip comes up and inside the movie clip there is a button to restart the game. how to i code the button inside the movieclip to gotoAndPlay to frame 1 on the main timeline?
[Code]...
I have a frame with a movieclip in it (named "theclip" in the library and has the instance name of "guy"). The movieclip has two frames with stops on them. The second frame inside this movieclip has the label "guy2"
Now back in the basic frame i also have a button (outside the guy movieclip) that i'd like when i press it it jumps to the "guy2" frame of the "guy" movieclip.
Code:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("guy2");
}
what do i add to the script that makes it refer to the movieclip? Is there a line like the _root or _parent and so on?
im using as3 to make buttons, and basically when you click on something, all other tabs close, i can not get this to work....
invisible.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fn_tab3_1); // invisible is the invisible button, mouse move in this area triggering this event//
function fn_tab3_1(event:MouseEvent){

I have a movieclip on the stage instance name: "man_mc"and another movieclip on the stage named: "tree_mc"At the end of the timeline in "man_mc" I want to call the"tree_mc" to gotoAndPlay('fall').I've tried tree_mc.gotoAndPlay('fall'); and a few others
View 3 RepliesI want to have an animated button that go's to the next scene and plays. This is the code I have on the button inside the movie clip:
ActionScript Code:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("rollover");
} on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("rollout");
} on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", 1);
}
For some reason this doesn't work? Is the problem that the code on the button is within a movie clip?
In the game there is a scene (called scene 1) in that scene there is a movieclip.. Inside that movieclip there is alot of frames, and on the last frame there shall be a gotoAndPlay script that makes you go to scene 2 that is outside the movieclip... I have tried with gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", 1); and stuff, but it doesn't work

View 3 RepliesI have three symbols. First is a Shield MovieClip, where in the first frame I have placed a stop(); Action and the second frame is where the animation starts..Second is a Ship and third is a PowerUp. Inside the Ship symbol, I placed the Shield MovieClip. I wanted to create a hitTest when the Ship hits the PowerUp, the Shield MovieClip inside of the Ship will start playing.
This is my code that doesn't work:
if(this.hitTest(_root.ship)) {
root.Ship.Shield.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
How to jump to a frame (gotoAndPlay) on the ROOT (or any frame anywhere) right after a movie clip is done playing. This is AS3 on Flash CS4.
View 9 RepliesI'm making a flash site but I'm having a little problem: I preload my site with this code:
Code:
bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded / bytes_total;
this.loadBar._width = getPercent * 200;
this.loadText = Math.round(getPercent * 100) + "%";
if(bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
this.gotoAndPlay(3);
}
This code works perfectly when I test it, but if it goes to frame 3, the MC's on that frame won't start playing... ? If I just remove the frames with the preload bar (so frame 3 becomes frame 1), all works perfectly...
I am trying to get a movieclip that is on the stage to play at a certain time. it isn't working (not getting errors) and I'm so lost. The odd thing is, it is not just not doing it, but doing something else: it is going to the frame and stopping.
View 5 RepliesI have attempted with little (read as: none) success in having movieclip(s) play when triggered via Microphone activity/silence level. I would like to have the microphone act as a simple trigger that plays movieclip(A) depending on silence cut off level and loudness of microphone input.
If The mic user were to speak into the mic relatively loud, movieclip(A) would play.As soon as the mic level decreases; movieclip(A) would either play in reverse, or play another movieclip. (MOVIECLIP B) .The idea is to have an simple animated mouth open and close in time to microphone input.
I'm using movie clips to make buttons because I want a image to fade in and out. When you click on it it should jump to a different frame but it does not happen. I'm not should if it's trying to go in to the frame in the movie clip or or not. How do I get that movie clip when I use the on release to gotoandplay on the main sence and not the movie clip? There was an image in the background but for size, I had to delete it to upload it. Not important but pointing it out for some reason.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to work on a flash project. Essentially, when I press a button it initiates a video symbol. Once that video symbol is loaded, there are 3 buttons to choose from. When I click one of the buttons, it should do a gotoAndPlay. Instead, what does happen is I click the first button:

View 6 Repliesis there anyway to have a button play frames 5-10 on a movie clip inside the current frame, as well as skipping to...lets say...frame 10 of the scene?
i want to create a site where buttons go to different pages, but those pages have animations in and out. so if someone is in one page, and clicks a button to go to another, that page plays the "out" animation while the other page plays the "in" animation.
It seems like no matter where I check, there isn't a clear answer to this particular issue.Rather than blabber on about the code, I think it is important for me to address that I may just not be setting up my document correctly. At present, I created several layers, some in folders, for a basic portfolio website. I have my problems with my main buttons, in my "Sections" folder, where each button is a distinctive layer so it can be animated when it is pressed.I have a button called 'architecture' that is pressed, but instead of just statically moving the frame to the desired content, I want to play 5-7 frames that I tweened for a small transition (sometimes opacity, sometimes sliding mask) that occurs right before the content. All my transitions and everything is just on this one main timeline.
Basically, I sort of want to have the best of both worlds, where I can goToAndPlay, but then stop it at the end of that segment, as to not run into my next frames of content.My first solution was to simply place a stop(); at the end of the transition, but then the menu just locks and stops. Of course this was on my top layer named 'actions.'I then tried applying each event listener to it's buttons' layers, but that resulted in the button simply not working.I segmented up the actions layer into keyframes, but then realized that it didn't call on the event listeners if I did that.
my timeline I have animated and placed all the images and info as well as 'stop();' and 'gotoAndPlay();' actions here and there, they are mainly to constrain part of the timeline so when the user clicks on a button he's taken past those constraints further on the timeline to another page with information. Problem is, I have four buttons, the first one has a on (release) { gotoAndPlay(107); } on it and frame 107 is past my first stop(); action and is working fine. The second one with the same properties and the same action just a different frame, doesn't work at all! All the buttons have instance names. I can't understand what's wrong. All I have are some stop();, gotoAndPlay();, gotoAndStop(); actions! Do they affect the button behaviors? It's really annoying me and giving me headaches... What am i doing wrong here?

A method I've used many times on AS2, is not working in AS3. I'm using a gotoAndPlay command within an Event.ENTER_FRAME loop to go to a particular frame on the timeline that holds a movieclip containing a looping movieclip.
[Code]...
It successfully moves the timeline to the "goright" and "goleft" labels, but the problem I'm having is that it never gets past the first frame of the embedded movieclip - clearly because it is resetting the mc every time the onEnterFrameHandler is called.
I am trying to learn ActionScript 3. I have a MovieClip called Ship in the library and have made class of it called ship. The Ship movieClip glows from Frame 6 to indicate when it crashes into an asteroid.The myShipMovieClip child is controlled by arrow keys and asteroid approaches. The hitTest works but I cant get the ship to glow i.e. from the timeline go to the Ship MovieCli in the library and go to frame 6 to start it to glow. I have managed to do this in ActionScript 2 but have tried for the last few days to try and do it in AS3here is my code :
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.MovieClip;

I have an animation inside a movieclip thats located on the main timeline. There is a stop on the first frame of the movieclip, and whenever I try to do the _root.MC.gotoAndPlay(2) it will play like one frame then stop.

I Know how to make a button with gotoAndStop, and gotoAndplay. I understand timeline coding. And have started with classes and OOP, im ok at writing classes i guess.
But I have know idea how to make a menu that has basic things like instructions start ect basic things.. I have a library with a exported SWC, so i presume i need to grab my graphical assets from this, correct? or is there other ways?
