I try to convert a game made in another language in AS 3. So far things went good but...I am having a problem on how to implement some things. For example I want to make an animation of a planet spinning ( from some couple og images )actionscript ( I would prefer to set speed of frames from code at one point )? An example would be nice or some ideas. But if it cant
View 3 RepliesI have a banner, and on this banner there are three wheels which spin continuously by way of motion tweens.What I want to do is have them stop spinning for a few seconds and then continue spinning, this process will be repeated every time.
So my question is: How would I accomplish this?I know I could just add a bunch of frames to stop the wheels from spinning, but I was wondering if there's a script that will do this without having to add frames.
is it possible that i can make an elipse orbit in a 360 like a planet with out it looking like a flat papper?i want to make it seem 3d as if rendered.i want to import the globe of our world and make it go around.
View 8 RepliesI was wondering if there was an easy way to change the FPS in a looping animation with a couple buttons. Don't need anything fancy. Just 20 FPS and 35FPS buttons.
View 2 Replies1) I created a movieclip animation and set the speed at a higher rate of fps than the site i later added the animation too - so the other animations I have are at the correct speed - i had forgotten to change the default from 12fps when I did those. Is there an easy way to change the speed besides changing the document fps - I don't want my animated sequence to speed up or slow down as I've just got it to the way I want it. I'm hoping that isn't too a stupid question
2) I thought that when you published the flash site it would 'crop' itself to the document size you set? I've tried uploading the published site and I have a white space around the top & bottom which looks terrible! I tried changing the size in dreamweaver but it's so hit & miss, sometimes it changed (but resized the whole flash site) or just didn't change anything. there must be something I'm doing wrong or an easier way to do this.
I've uploaded (for testing to see what it looked like - it's still very much in it's infancy and it's slow to load as I need to change an animation size - didn't prepare the raster images for web in one of the animations - trying to sort that now) on the end of my other website so that you can see what I mean: [URL](oh, and the background blue has a low opacity so I created a gif image to add to the html background but it's looks a completely different colour (it's the same hex colour code?!?!?!))
Ok so I'm working on a project at my job and things are going very well. The Flash application is 100% dynamic from text to text field colors, to panel colors, etc..The back end runs off of ASP in case you're curious.
Now we are up to the part where we have to load images into a panel. The images are uploaded by the user and the names are stored in a database. The panel should load 6 images at a time, 3 rows 2 columns.
Our ASP programmers aren't 100% sure on how they should be sending me the images. I started toying around with some code, assuming I have an image count which they will provide.
[Code]...
So as of now I have 6 panels going across my movie, which is fine, but now I need to columnize them into 3 rows 2 columns. So that's my concern as of now. Later on I will need to figure out how to say "if there are 6+ images have next and previous buttons to load the next ones". So if anyone has any good links on that it would be cool.
where when you roll over a circle button that I have on stage the circle spins. Then when I roll out the circle stops spinning. I think the best way to do this would be to remove the event listener but I'm not sure. Here is the code I've got to get this thing moving:
ActionScript Code:
// Add Listener to the Rotate Button
mc2_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, rotateButtonClicked);[code].....
[code]...
(setImages) is function of first column for spinning of images, but i want to stop column wise on specifc speed.
I'd like to create a spinning gallery with 7 different images...scrolling responds to mouse movement...when an image is clicked, the photo comes to the center front and resizes to a larger image with a label on it.Can I do this all in just Flash cs5? I'd like to be able to just import a single swf file into a CMS website.Right now, I have 7 of the same images spinning. I can't figure out how to add additional images with using xml and I haven't figured out the hover state with larger image and label and click tag to go to another page on site.
View 1 RepliesThis is my first post and wanted to say what a great site, i found the above tutorial and wanted to know how i would go about adding different images to the panes instead of having the same image repeated.I've added the below bit of actionScript from the page that i think i have to alter but don't know how to..
"// attach each pane in a loop and arrange them in a
// circle based on the circumference of the circle
// divided into steps[code]....
check this link this ppl just make smooth images animation [url] the images in the back ground "flash" work smooth and nice I try to make the same don't work the image look so stupid what is the way they use to make the image look smooth in motion ?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to make a car, and i can't get the wheels to spin.
View 1 RepliesI'm rather new to AS3 and have been tasked with a project, the project requires reading in values from an XML file created by PHP, this works fine if the XML file is available, and is just being updated by PHP, however, when flash calls the PHP page that creates the XML file for the first time, it doesn't give PHP enough time to make the XML file.

i want to make a menu that's horizontally spinning in 3D but i dont know how to achieve this. I want the objects to spin around a centerpoint (centerx) And spin within a certain radius (defined by the var radius). And the position of the buttons/object must be set by a var "degree" of 0/360..

it hides the MC but doesnt return visible on release of PGDN. Ive had a go at trying to fix this but i cant find the right command in the actionscript dictionary. Also is it possible for the MC to hide only on the holding down of multiple keys.

View 2 RepliesMy problem is that the client I am making a homepage for wants the site to be done in Flash, but also wants to have the ability to make changes to the website on his own. Creating the website in Flash is not the problem rather what other program or method can I use, which is easy enough for someone who is not knowledgable in Flash or any other web design program, so that this client can make random changes to the menus and photos on this website?

I've created a sphere, and used a texture of Earth to create a rotating planet (using movie material).

I am putting together a gallery that will show about 60 images. basic fade-in transitions between the images. I need to animate the company logo (very basic) and show some text below each image), becasue of this I dont know if any off the shelf xml based gallery will work? As usually you just define the image name/path and run the swf. This is for a presentation and not web so maybe not possible to be Xml based. Is there anything that is out there that could work for this and if not i suppose I am doing everything in flash but fear this as thimeline will be so long and a bit of a nightmare to do, if I have to do this in flash, I would have each image occupy about 20 frames 1-9 it will fade in, frame 10- a 10 sec pause, and frame 11-20 a fade out, that will still give me a timeline of 1200 approx.
View 1 RepliesI am building a Dutch website where people can search for availble houses tot rent. The website is completly free for every one. But to make some money I have added the possiblity for house owners to put there website in the spotlight in Dutch "uitgelicht" (see : http:[url].....). Now I have the following problem. Not every browser shows it in the correct way and I wanted to change the banner in to a flash banner. So I started out in flash to create a "image belt" like this. But now I want to insert some images from a database and I am stuck.
The Question : Where and how do I tell Flash to insert images from a db. I know PHP but I don't know where to start looking.
