I found myself stuck.I have no idea on how to change the words when the "next" button is clicked. there will be no previous button. but the dialogue will replay when the character is clicked.
View 3 RepliesI have a character selection screen and I'd like the player to highlight the selected character by pressing on it and then press a START button. How?Of course he can change his mind and select another character before pressing start.
Translated to commands should be something like:Press button1 (Character 1) and leave it highlightedPress button2 (Character 2), leave it highlighted and shut down button1 highlightPress button3 (START), go to LEVEL1 with movieclip on Frame1 (Character1) if button1 is highlighted, go to LEVEL1 with movieclip on Frame2 (Character2) if button2 is highlighted Maybe I could hide every highlight on release except of the selected character by writing on each button: highlight1._visible=false, etc...
i was wondering if any of you out there could tell me how it is possible to make a movieclip of a character and when the character is dragged about the screen by the curser, how do you make the characters arms and legs swing about in a realistic fashion.

View 2 RepliesWhat is the best way to set up a game where I can customize my character? I want to be able to let the user select the clothes, skin color, hair style, etc, and then run a preset animation with that character in it, but am unsure how to set this up in Flash other than building a bunch of buttons with all of the possible options (too time consuming and I bet there's a better way).

View 1 RepliesI'm sorry if this is the wrong section. But I'm looking for help with my actionscript coding. I'm fairly new to Flash. I've only scripted some simple websites so far and this is the first time I try to make a flash game. I started yesterday but I'm already having problems with my script.
I have a scene with 2 layers: one with my character and one with the bounds (ground, ceiling and walls).
Inside my character movie clip, I have this: Which is basically a bunch of frames labeled and with the action to stop();. Each one containing another movie clip with the respective animations. So the idea was, when I press "A", jump to "walk left". And it kinda worked, but I have some problems and I'm not really sure how to solve them.

View 3 RepliesSo I have a MC character and have him moving with the arrows. Now there are multiple(5) frames inside of this MC. Walk Animation(which is the first frame in the MC), Standing Animation, etc. So when I hit left arrow he walks and the walk animation cycles. BUT!!! When I crouch, etc. It doesn't loop the animation it just sits on a still image (as if I did not have an animation on that frame). What am I doing wrong?The code i'm using after my if statement is gotoAndStop(frame)Within each MC there are more MC's and so on, I don't know if this screws with it.Here is an FLA, the code is partly me but ultimately from disastamaans tutorial(on the kongregate website) for basic platforming. I'm just trying to learn right now.Forgot to add that currently I have a total of five frames.1 Animated-walk2 Animated-stand3 Animated-jump4 Animated-crouch5 Animated-crouch walkThose are my five frames, and 1,2, and 3 work fine, only 4 and 5 won't animate?

I am currently making a platformer game but I can't seem to get a walking animation for my character. So far I have made a character which can move fine. Inside the characters movie clip are 2 frames (one standing and one walking) Now my problem is that I can get my character to move right and play the walking animation but when I walk left the walking animation doesn't play but the character still moves. I am using action script 2 and flash pro 8

var ground:MovieClip = _root.ground;
var grav:Number = 0;
var gravity:Number = 2;
var speed:Number = 7;

View 1 RepliesI am really new with flash and yet I needed to construct a simple one level game. What I have now is kinda similar to pacman but a bit different.
1) Lets say, like pacman, the user's character need to pick up things in the maze. but instead of the items are already there, i would like to have some already there and then when the user pass the path, some will randomly appear in the maze. e.g : like the fruits that will randomly appear in pacman.
2) How to make the bad character constantly chase the user's character throughout the game. only one bad character in this game chasing.
just wondering if anyone can help me with this I'm making a platform game and wanted to make my game character run when user press the keyboard left or right. But I want my character to run like an actual person instead of just sliding across the screen. I have no idea where to start and I can only find tutorial that teach how to make a character move by just using - or + number of pixels but that's not what I'm actually looking for. I prefer that my game character to be more lively. Does anyone know how??
