I want to make a preloader, and I know how to make basic ones (where a rectangle gets bigger as the amount of loaded content increases), but I would like a little more complicated one, like this: I have 20 letters in my website title, and when you go to my website you don't see anything, but as it loads, for every 5% loaded, a letter will blur in.
View 6 RepliesI dont have flash experience but would like to create a navigation bar like the one on this website http:[url]... I like the way the menu pops onto the screen but dont know what that effect is called so am having trouble finding a tutorial.
View 2 Repliesthis is hard to explain, but I can't find out how to make it so when I press a button, a menu pops up in the middle. How would this work for an online game? Since I don't want it to go to the next frame, how could this be done? when I push the button, a shape pops up in the middle of the screen.
View 4 RepliesI'm working on this flash site This is my first time using the loadVars command, so I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong with it.I have a movie clip that acts as a window, it has an animation of popping up, once it does it has a text box in it thats set up to display html. It then loads the html from a txt file, which works fine. The problem is, when the user clicks on another page, the window pops out, starts over from the beginning and pops in, this time loading a different txt file for the html. This also works, however, if you select the text or click on it at all and then switch the page, anywhere you click next will make all the text in the box vanish. You can click and hold onto the scroll bar and scroll down, but the second you let go it vanishes.
Here is the loading code on the frame in _root:

I can't think of any reason why this is happening, and all of my debugging attempts have failed.
I designed a site in AS3 and real quick in less then a second the 800x800 size of the flash template pops up in white then the preloader shows up to load the site.

View 7 Repliesso for my loading screen, I want a block to appear for every 10% loaded (so they'red be 10 blocks at the end). I know how to make a loading bar, but I'm having trouble making this one.
View 3 RepliesMy 1 frame load screen zips by and the next frame plays right away. When I click on a button that goes to another frame, it only goes to the last loaded frame, which is the wrong place. This happens for a few seconds until all the frames are loaded. In the meantime, it looks like my buttons are broken.Here's the code I'm using:
if (this.getBytesLoaded()=this.getBytesTotal()) {
this.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
This is the error I get in the compiler:
Left side of assignment operator must be variable or property.
I know this has probably asked a lot before, but I tried searching some and couldn't find it.
When I make a loading bar it won't show up until the whole game's loaded.
I`m making a website in which there are 4 buttons that lay as a menu. By clicking any of them, the clicked button goes to the top of the page (via motion tween, movie clip).
how to make the "loaded" button on the top of the screen, no matter which of the 4 it is to go back at its base point, when other button is clicked?
It seems like the loading screen (more like frame) is the last thing to load, so you are stuck staring at a blank screen for a while. How can i prioritize how the game loads so that the instant you get on the page the loading screen comes up immediately?

View 6 RepliesI've been trying to attempt to make it so a .flv video will fit to the entire screen of the browser window. ( I already have my .swf file fit to re-size to any browser on any computer. I just can't figure out how to make the video as well) And obviously an external video so the flash file wont take forever to load.The point is this is to be able to have the Video be the background. So I may put content (Links, information or whatever else) on top of the video.

View 2 RepliesI have a movieclip clip that plays when the movie starts, the movieclip is a visual assets that show's that the application is loading some information but it's not showing any loading progress, just playing while the assets are loaded.I created a for loop that will load the assets using a simple loader, and then when the object is loaded the application push the object to an array.Problem is that when the loading starts all the animation that i have on screen stops until the loading is finished.The whole point is that the animation will play while it's loading.

I load many images simultaneously with different Loader class. When loaded I add content of loaders to the movieclips which are child of some other movieclip which is child other... I check that images are loaded addChild method is called, but loaded images cannot be seen on the screen.
Actually, sometimes images can be seen, but sometimes cannot be seen.
Do I need to rerender some DisplayObject? Something similar...
how some websites you click on something, a flash window (I'm assuming it's a flash window) pops up and everything goes dark around it (and you can't click anywhere) until you close the window.
View 5 RepliesI have used this method before to make a preloader. But this time for some reason the screen is blank until the movie is finished loading. The bandwidth profiler says I am on frame 0.

I have been comparing this to another project (that uses the same code)and it loads fine in Simulate Download and BWProfiler says frame 1 while loading. There are no differences in the Public Settings, or any other settings I can see...
Every time I get to frame 15 of my first scene, Error 1009 pops up in the output panel.
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

Here is my code for that scene:

stop();
combat.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, real);
function real(e:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndStop(1, "Combat")}training.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, GoT);
function GoT(e:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndStop(1, "Training")}
Clicking to go to the Combat scene works fine, but going to Training doesn't work.

when using a timer to fade volume, I get clicks and pops in the sound.The fade goes from 1 to 0 in 30 ms. Is there any way around this? Could it have something to do with the fla file's frame per second? This is set at 100.The fader timer is inside another timer (which varies from 150 to 1000 ms)
