View 1 Replieshow to create a carousel like his with papervision. I created one but the planes just go round and round. I was wondering if it's possible for the planes to keep the same angel as the example of the link. I do not want the plane to rotate itself on the y axis but just move on the X/Z axis just going around an object in the middle.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible/what is the easiest way to take 3D model from max and create a Flash or Javascript carousel that can work on the web? It should function like a real world CD carousel with say 100 or so models built in. [URL] Buttons on each side scroll through the chips. This is my first one and I didn't see any similar questions asked. Sorry for not embedding the image...it wouldn't let me because this is my first post.

View 5 RepliesI was wondering if it's possible to include an swf within a javascript carousel that currently just contains stagic images. What I'm looking to do is include a flash animation within the carousel. I guess I've got two main questions: Is it possible to cycle through flash files in the same way as an image? How would I get the javascript and flash to interact so the flash file would know when it had been selected?

i.m trying to create a 3d rotation much like the widely used carousel only the rotation i desire consist of four upright(90 degrees) movieclips resting on a slanted, 30 degree plane which rotate onEnterFrame or following a tween on a oval like path - then pause for a given number of seconds at the four movieclips positions equal in distance on the plane
function around() {
this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
var s = this._y /(centerY+radiusY);

I'm working with Lee Brimelow's code from his first tutorial on carousels at [URL]. I'm wondering how to add in different mc's so I'll have more than just one rotating? I'm rotating houses for real estate, so I've got all my mc's made, and labeled (item, item2, item3, item4), I just can't figure out how to get each in there...

how can I make a carousel effect similar to this website? Is there an easy program to assist? Is it flash?
View 1 RepliesI did the 3d carousel tutorial from gotoandlearn.com and I manage to create a background color that will load once you click an image with a movie clip called dim . However this movieclip dim keeps appearing atop my icons. I tried Swapdepths to change the orders but its not working.

I did the 3d carousel tutorial from gotoandlearn site and I manage to create a background color that will load once you click an image with a movie clip called dim. However this movieclip dim keeps appearing atop my icons. I tried Swapdepths to change the orders but its not working. On function released. I want the var dim to be behind the var t:Movieclip =home. in the preview the movie clip dim with the alpha of 80 appears on top the var t that has the carousel images.
Code:
import mx.utils.Delegate;
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var numOfItems:Number;
var radiusX:Number = 300;
var radiusY:Number = 75;

View 8 RepliesI just built a carousel using Actionscript 2.0 in CS4 via an awesome tutorial on this site. I've added this carousel to an existing site and works beautifully on the home page but the problem is, when I click on a button to go to a new page, the carousel appears there as well obstructing the page content. Also, when I click back to home the carousel multiplies. My question is, how do I get the carousel to appear on the homepage ONLY and not multiply each time I click back to the home page? I'm a new Flash user.
View 1 RepliesI followed the tutorial for the 3D Carousel, tutorials 1 through 3. (Great tutorial by the way) The main thing that I want to change about the 3d carouosel is how it loads. If I simulate the download for say a 3d carousel, the icons come onto the stage kind of at random intervals depending on how quickly it downloads each external image file. I was hoping that some sort of preloader (whether it be the basic one or the advanced one in the tutorials) would work to load the movie without seeing the icons pop in slowly on load. But Neither of them seemed to work. I even tried the "load an external SWF" tutorial and that didn't work either.
So instead I decided to modify the 3D carousel to not pull external images into the movie by reading the xml file as it currently does but to just create individual item movie clips for each item. For some reason, when I edited the item movie clips I lost the masker effect. I can't seem to figure out how to get the masker effect to start working again. I tried tracing the bitmap for the icon, or breaking it apart but that didn't work.
What things or settings are needed in order for the masker to work correctly?Is there a smooth way to preload the 3D carousel without seeing the icons pop in one at a time as it loads the external images?
I've been putzing around with this tutorial for a couple of days and I seem to come up with the same error pretty consistently so I'm beginning to wonder if I shouldn't be doing something a little differently for Flash CS3. The error I'm getting is 1046: type was not found or was not compile-time constant:imCon
View 8 RepliesI have a carousel built and it works fine, but there is an angle on it that I want to get rid of. When the images move along the carousel, I want them to always stay the same on the X axis. Here is the code, I have tried mangling it in every possible combination, but it is outside my AS3 knowledge on how to get the angle changed.
import mx.utils.Delegate;
var numOfItems:Number;
var radiusX:Number = 1150;
var radiusY:Number = 50;
var centerX:Number = Stage.width / 2;
var centerY:Number = Stage.height / 6;
var speed:Number = 0.002;

I am using the Casousel3 tutorial and getting some cool effects but would like to make some mods - but don't really have the knowledge it seems to do them. I have tried but only succeeded in creating a rather nice white screen. I would like to be able to bring in the images via xml at 75% their original size so that when i click them I can enlarge them too 100% (part where the text comes in - have sorted the enlarging) and not get any pixelisation appearing. I would also like to be able to preload the images as they are loading (with that swirl loading graphic if possible !?)
View 1 RepliesI'm modifiying the 3D Carousel and I want that onRelease function it desapears. I've created a new layer with two frames. The first have an stop(); and the second have a red rectangle.
I can go to this frame but I've tryied a lot of diferent methods to stop/delete the carrusel and it continues appearing.
I am VERY green when it comes to flash and this is my first ever project. What Im trying to accomplish; *a website for myself that is "simple" and clean to be used as an art portfolio/gallery of my work. -three sets of buttons that go to three pages all with carousels that hold my artwork for that type (ie. press the concept art button and it loads page 2 where there is a photo carousel that containing my concept art pieces.
-clicking another button will then call for a new page with a new carousel (I have three types of art that I am showcasing: concept art, fine art, 3D game art)
I have managed to create a flash page that has my name and the buttons and upon pressing the buttons it goes to the page I need. However the pages are at the moment empty due to the fact that I cannot get the carousels to work properly. I have watched the tutorial and dl the class package on 3D carousels. I changed the .as file within the package so that my carousel will be vertical by changing imc.x = Math.cos(imc.angle) * 450; to imc.y = Math.cos(imc.angle) * 450;

I have a carousel 3 based navigation item for my site built, and now new XML content (CDATA) for the carousel can be loaded dynamically into the carousel depending on pressing different language buttons (example attached). After a few fails and tries, all good!What I am trying to do is apply a preloader for the whole thing. I tried following this tutorial: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=14393.but I am getting some conflicts with some other modifications made for the CDATA and multi-language buttons. Can someone please, please give me a hand and help me understand what direction I need to go in?Attached are 3 FLAs:
1) 'working' shows the different language buttons working as I have them - the tooltips and expanded icons will show different XML content depending on the language button selected (English, Polish, German, Dutch - haven't created content or translated yet, but you can see different identifiers!)
2) 'preloader' shows the preloader I would like to apply to the carousel item. The layers are moved to frame ten mostly, 'Export in Frame 1' has been un-checked in properties for the 'item' and 'tooltip' library items, and a new layer containing dummy 'item' and 'tooltip' instances in keyframe 5 have been added. The AS has also been changed, but it doesn't take into account the multi-XML change as in 1 above ......
3) 'bridging' is my sorry attempt to bridge the gap between 1 and 2 above. I think that a separate array will be needed - one for the multi-XML and another for the way in which the preloader works, but nothing that I have done so far can get this to work. I have been banging my head on this since (last) Saturday, the 'bridging' actions layer only contains a slight variation on some of the bonkers theories I have been trying, I've rolled back most of the changes - all to no avail though....Can anybody please have a look at what I am trying to do and let me know what it is that I am doing wrong, or give me some pointers? The 'problem' AS sits in the keyframe in frame 10 of the 'actions' layer.
The tutorials on the site are fantastic kudos to the developers of the site and the tutorials. On Creating 3D Carousels would anyone know a way to stack the rings? Also additional images to be called in each new ring via the XML file.

View 1 Repliesi am working on a modified version of the gotoandlearn xml carousel menu and i would like to add a stationary logo in the middle.If i just place a MC in the middle of the stage it won't work because the icons go right through because the carousel is the the highest depth, also when i click on one and load my external swf the MC in the middle just stays in the middle of the page.How do i place the object in the middle at the same depth of the icons and make it disappear(_alpha function?) when i load the external swf with the xml?Does it have to be loaded with the xml or could it be just place there in the middle of the carousel?

View 1 Replies1.Flash carousel changes
a.Currently each carousel rotates automatically.
change so that it is does not rotate but it only rotates when you click on individual image, it then stays on that image until you click another image.file is also attached:
// Code Credit: Lee Brimelow
stop();
var folder:String = "thumbnails/";// a folder for thumbnail files + an XML file[code]...........
I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on how I can resize this carousel as in the canvas size and the images. The other thing is, what do I need to do to be able to add new images to the folder so they appear in the carousel? At the moment when I do this they don't appear.[code]
