Have a movie clip that I've set up in my fla, but I can't seem to get it off frame 1 with actionscript: the relevant code from character.as follows.. (i've tried a few other setups but nothing seems to get it to actually go to the "walking" stage. Scaling and other manipulations are working fine. Any insights into what I might try?

View 7 RepliesSo I have my function here which sets up the tween for movieClips that have images on them:
[Code]....
This code is done 20 times with different images added to two different movieClips (b0 and b1) that are waiting in the library. So, the glitch is - this function works damn near perfectly except after a while of navigating to other frames and coming back to the frame with this sometimes the b0 wont tween all the way onto the stage and sometimes not at all. And dont worry about the b0 not being described as a variable I have done this outside the button function as I was getting error messages. I have spent almost a week tooling around with this but nothing works I get the same glitches.
Since my project uses class actionscript files my whole game project runs on one frame and nothing is on the maintimeline so there is only just one frame on the timeline. Just wondering how I could make it so that I could have the first frame with game instructions and a description which then goes into the game being second frame and when gameover goes to third frame using actionscript. or any tutorials or some peice of advice
View 3 RepliesI'm using the code:[code]in order to direct button named "one" to open website.html in a frame named mainFrame. However, when I then use the same code on each button, opening different URLs it no longer works; whichever button you click on first will open in mainFrame, but any button you click after this will open in a new window.

View 2 RepliesI'm creating an interactive that consists of 3 maps, each on its own tab. On each map, there are various circles representing data for a particular city.I want the circles to display a pop-up containing text when you roll over each one. Since I don't want the plain old buttons, I'm using 2-frame movie-clips, where the second frame represents the mouse-over state and a text box fades in as follows:

This all works fine, and I can get multiple buttons working on the first tab (frame 1) by grouping them all into a movie clip, as follows:
[Code]...
The problem is when I try to use the same or a similar with a different set of buttons on the second tab (frame 15). I put a similar set of actionscript on frame 15. The buttons seem to accept the buttonMode = true command, but I absolutely cannot get the rollovers to display. I've tried using different function names for the MOUSE_OVER and _OUT events, to no avail. I get no errors and nothing shows up in Output -- it just acts as if there's no rollover to display.Do I need to somehow put all the AS on Frame 1? Is it an issue related to ENTER_FRAME in the rollovers?
There's two frames and I created a button in frame1 that it will tween its tint from grey to red color(using tweenmax) whenever mouse over and out. It will go to frame2 when the button got clicked, and on entering frame2 the button will remain in red color. Also in frame2 I set the button will return to grey color and it will return to frame1 when the button got clicked. The button works fine for the first round as it change its color and switch the frames. However, it didn't remain in red color for the second round I clicked it (It still responsed to mouse over and out).
View 3 RepliesI am having a big of trouble with this code to change frames on my timeline. I thought my code below would work fine but its not. For some reason it will go to frames 1-4 (4 is the last frame) then it will go back to 1 again just fine as its supposed to... but then will jump to 3 then back to 1... all random instead of staying in sync. I have attached both my as2 version and my as3 version. My as 2 is working perfectly. I can define the amount of time a frame will pause for on each frame.
here is my as 3 code;
stop();

I'm a born-again newbie, as it's been awhile, so bear with me...I have a main movie, with the menus and some basic info. I would like each section of the portfolio to load as a separate swf (to save on file size)...we were hoping to have the back/next, copyright buttons on top of a full size image...but my question is how to navigate the home button to return to the main movie with the menus...the old site had separate sections loading into an mtClip with the following code:
loadMovie("vr4.swf", 1);
then when you click home:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("home");
unloadMovieNum(1);
}
how to code the home button on the section swfs to unload the movie, but return to the main movie without reloading?
I made a 3d box using flash cs4 built in 3d tools and I'm trying to "walk around" in it. I do this by moving the box accordingly.

I have two .fla's i'm working with. The first is called index.fla. this file holds a button that when pressed loads a swf into a placeholder layer. the second .fla is the one being loaded in the form of a .swf. what i want to do is write a code on the second frame of the .swf that will send index.fla to the 5th frame.
View 2 RepliesI want to create a preloader that plays a certain amount of frames as it loads the rest of the frames. So, I have labels on the frames basically and need a preloader to play the "loading" frames as it is loading the "content" frames. Does that make sense? I have no idea how to even start this one... p.s. I am using AS 2.0, but if it can be done in 3.0 easier, I can switch over its no biggie
View 4 Repliesthere seems to be no accepted method of playing multiple flv using buttons. My latest attempt has me putting multiple instances of the flvPlayback component in different frames and using buttons to navigate to those frames. It works but nothing anyone has posted anywhere will result in removing the flv when you go to a different frame and instance. This was simple in AS2. Load movie to a traget and each time you load a new movie the other one goes away. REALLY goes away.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to teach myself actionscript 3 and going insane over an issue with an .flv video that I can't stop.
The problem I'm having is that I can't make video (an .flv within the "FLVPlayback" component set as a movie clip) stop when navigating to another tab. Navigating away from and back to my video page/frame even results in 2 audio streams playing simultaneously. I think the problem lies with me not being able (or knowing how) to identify the video/movie clip with "(name)".stop();

I am a real noob at AS3. Its so frustrating now to try to re-learn how to navigate to different movieclips on different levels in my flash demo... Or for that matter, how to navigate at all with buttons on the timeline. I have a movieclip called mc_Flyouts on my main timeline. Inside of it are a left and a right side arrow which when clicked trigger a tween and flyout buttons appear. I want it so when the user clicks any of these flyout buttons in this movie, they jump to a different keyframe back out on the main timeline. I got the following code to work, but its giving me errors:

I am using Flash CS3 and AS2 on a PC. I am making a CD in Flash, for a client. The CD has videos, images and text. What I need is be able to go to the next scene once an FLV has finished playing. Also if a new FLV can be loaded once the curent ends. The FLV is in the FLVPlayback component. I need to add Cue Points which I can use to navigate with. The client would prefer a minimum of buttons, and thus auto navigation once a point is reached.I would prefer to avoid the need for me to use third party software or add-ons unless absolutely necessary.
View 3 RepliesI have a swf file which requires a username and password to log in. When the user enters the values and clicks the submit button I validate it using asp.net. What I want is if the validation succeeds then I want to navigate to the home page of my application which is also a swf file. How can I do this? This is my mxml code

I have several swf files which are completed screencasts with voice overs, which I need to integrate into a flash application to distribute on CD to new students.
To play the screencasts in my flash file, I'm navigating to a new frame for each one which has a movie clip on it (instance name myscu3 for example). The myscu3 movieclip has about 20 frames of animation to grey out the screen behind, and then a couple of frames with actionscript on them, which 1) first frame shows a loading screen while the screencast swf is loading via a Loader and then navigates to the 2) second frame where the screencast coords are set and addChild is used to show the screencast via the Loader.
All works fine EXCEPT ... if I navigate away from the parent timeline frame where the myscu3 clip is ... the screencast disappears (as it should, as the myscu3 clip isn't on other frames, but if the screencast hasn't finished playing before I navigate away, the sound keeps playing.
how to stop the sound playing, as the loader is in the child movieclip, and the navigation away from the frame containing it is accomplished by clicking on any of the tabs at the side (on the main timeline). Any ideas? Is there actionscript code which will just stop any current sound playing (without stopping the ability to play sound) which I could add into the tabs navigation code?
basically im making a quiz on my main timeline ive got my questions and answers and on the last frame i want it to say how many answers the user got right. ive made a movie clip on this last frame. in the movie clip ive got 11 frames with the posible totals so frame one would be 0/10 frame 2 would be 1/10 etc what i want to do is when the user clicks the correct answer on the other frames i want flash to make the frames within the movie clip to go 1 step forward.
View 2 RepliesI am making a site, this site is in a folder, inside of this folder I have the index.html file and a load of other html files. I then have a folder, flashheader. with a flash header that has 5 tabs on it. When I click a button, I want to navigate to another URL, this URL being in the parent.
PHP Code:
tab1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myBtnClicked1);
function myBtnClicked1(e1:MouseEvent):void {
var url:String = "../index.html";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
try {
navigateToURL(request, '_self');
} catch (e1:Error) {
trace("Error occurred!");
}}
There is my code, it listened for the tab to be clicked, and when it is, it loads the URL.
How would I go about using an XML file like the one below to control an mp3 in a player and show a jpg at the same time? Basically the mp3 is about a presentation, and the image is a slide of the presentation. If you click forward it needs to progress to the next chapter marking and display an image. If you click back it needs to go to the previous chapter marking and display the previous image.

I was wondering if there is an easy way of navigating through a website without the use of multiple pages and eliminate the use of a navigation bar. My idea, which I'm sure has been done before because people are always coming up with new inventive ways to browse the internet, is to be able to allow the user to free roam the entire website on one page. I wouldn't be asking if I found it so I figured I could put my mind at ease and ask someone.url...In this map, it allows the user to free roam this map and find different cities. My idea is to have the user to browse a map of a website to different parts of what would normally be links to other pages. The whole web map would be one page and the user could just move their cursor up or down or left to right to each section of the website. Once they get to a section, they can click on certain parts. There is one website that is similar to my idea, but I want to eliminate the use of a navigation bar.I am new to flash but I love web design. I want to come up with a new way to navigate.
View 5 RepliesBasically, what i want to do is have a home page with some images and things on it, and a menu. When the user clicks on a menu button, i want the images on the homepage to animate away, and be replaced with the chosen page (animated in). I understand how to animate things using Tweens in the timeline and also in As3 using the Tween Class, but for the animation i'd like to do it's so much easier to use the timeline (i don't think i'd be able to use as3 to do really complicated things yet).
I can figure out how to make the home page disappear, but i can't figure out how to then animate in the correct page. If anyone can point me in the direction of a good tutorial or just give me some hints i'd be sooo grateful!! I think i'm just struggling to get my head into it.
I've got to add a video (flv) to my videobtn (navigatiopanel). I made a flashfile in CS3 actionscript 3, placed the flvplaybackcomponent at the scene (layer 1, frame 1) and linked it to webserver for the streaming. So far so good, I made an swf of it an everything worked fine. Except for one major problem : de vid doesn't stop playing when I navigate to another button in the nav.panel. In fact when I click once more on the videobutton, there are two vid's playing at the same time
View 29 RepliesI am really new to actionscript 3 and am having some trouble wrapping my brain around this. I have what basically amounts to a slideshow with navigation. I have a menu frame that has buttons, that when clicked, move down the timeline to a specific frame and stops. From there the navigation has 3 buttons..."menu" (goes ck to menu) and "previous" and "next" which have actions associated with it to go to next frame or previous frame. I have an actions layers that has the code in it and it works fine from the menu (attached is the menu actionscript) as long as I click on the item that is on the keyframe directly under the keyframe containing the actionscript. How can I get the frames that aren't directly under the actionscript frame to use the actions?
