I'm making a tile based platformer game in AS3. I started it in CS3, but just installed CS4. It works great for a minute, but then it starts slowly losing frame rate..
View 1 RepliesI have created a small website using Flash CS4/AS3. Each of the pages is a seperate swf which i am loading into a container swf file when a button is clicked.
However when i test the site, it gets progressively slower every time another page is loaded in.
All my buttons are located in the external swf files and call the 'page load functions' in my container swf
Here is the code from my container swf where all the swfs are loaded into[code]...
I'm making a very simple Flash game which is just somewhat of a training project for myself. All it involves is clicking a button which takes away a random bit of health from an opponent, and I'm quite proud of myself for figuring out how to subtract the random number hit away from his total health and show the resulting number above his head. (lol i fail)But my problem has nothing to do with actionscript, it's my cloud layer which I've motion tweened across 150 frames inside the "cloud" movieclip. All the clouds do is slowly move across the stage (I created the cloud movieclip to where it doesn't jump back to it's original form when the 150 frames are done, so it looks like one continuous cloud scene). Whenever I test the project, it goes at about 5 fps, which is very slow (supposed to be at 30 fps).I know it's the clouds that caused the laggyness because I temporarily removed them and it goes just like normal.
View 2 RepliesI cant "center" my project, like you can see its "fixed" (yellow lines) in the left side and I cant see "invisible" part of project... (area around the project). how can I move my project so I can see the not-project area around the project. (picture 2).
At the moment situation... (cant see that area around the project)

I want to make a nine minute countdown timer. Just some event countdowns that include a date and all I need is a simple 9 minute countdown. The timer starts at 09 and ends at 00 ...So, that's pretty much it. Oh and I'm using dynamic text for the numbers.
View 1 RepliesI want to display a graph in flash from a URL, not a problem i have used the code below and this loads fine. I have tried using setInterval to reload the URL each minute to display the updated version of the graph, but it either displays nothing at all, or the same graph i had before. [code]...
View 9 RepliesI have been looking at tutorials and forums for almost three hours now. I am building an analog timer that goes to two minutes. I've setup a timer and have attempted to get the second hand to rotate as the timer continues. So far all it does is move that initial rotation. It looks like only 15 degrees or so. and it doesn't seem to matter what numbers I change it only goes to that 15 degrees.
Here is my code so far:
ActionScript Code:
var twoMinuteTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 120);
this.addEventListener("enterFrame",onEnterFrame);
function onEnterFrame(event:Event):void

I'm making a side scrolling flash game called Kit-Run using actionscript 2.0. I want to give each level a two minute time limit - ideally to have an enemy mc load that comes and kills you when it reaches 00:00.
I've found a lot of tutorials that count down time limits for dates, but none for a simple minute counter. I've started with a dynamic text field called "timeDisplay". What do I now??
Ok I have this 30 minute FLV that is progressively downloaded. The app also has chapter points that the user can click. This was orginally being built for use on a CD rom, but now they want it on the web things are changing..ughhh..ion is to disabled all the chapter points until the FLV has loaded to that chapter point. How can I figure that out how much (in seconds) of the FLV has loaded?
View 1 RepliesI was thinking about indenting a countdown timer in my new room escape game, and I would like to know how to create a countdown timer with a set time field in minutes, rather than the other that goes by retrieving a date first. E.g. I would like to create one that counts down from 20 minutes, rather than one that gets the time and minute and date, and shows the correct time fields.
View 2 RepliesI'm using Flash to create a simple profile on a recording artist for work. I'm trying to embed a minute-long .mov file into Flash, so when someone clicks the "watch" button I created, it changes frames and plays this .mov file.
I have everything uploaded, but the .mov file only shows up on certain computers when someone actually clicks the "watch" button. It works on my Mac, a friend's Mac, but on the three PCs I've tested, it won't show up. The Flash file itself works, but the .mov file won't show up on the frame when it is accessed.
The flash file containing the .mov is embedding onto a .php page made in Dreamweaver. On all computers, when the .swf is accessed directly, the .mov file will work properly. On the PCs, when the .php page is accessed and the Flash loads, the .mov will not load.
Here are the links:

- Click the "Watch" button on the Flash page when it loads. The .mov file should automatically load there.
I need to make a 1 minute long animation for today that incorporates these three elements:It must have a title and credits Must have at least one character that uses the bone tool It must have shape tweens (with hints)The quality doesnīt really matter, just so long as itīs not completely shoddy, or super professional, it just has to be done by today.

View 1 RepliesUsing regular font styles are fine such as Arial, Verdana and so forth but I tried using unicode font outlines inside an external text file for future use. This is what I have in the external text file:Code:Ive also set the file to unicode and set "render as html" in flash. My problem is when I load the textfile and the swf on my host, the text doesnt appear. It does appear but what happens is that the text appears for 1 second and disappears.This is the coding in the first frame of the main timeline:
Code:
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("http://www.minimalistik.f2p.net/bobs.txt");

I'm doing a flash game to go with this song on a band's website (sweet band, by the way (url...)), and the song would be playing during the game, and I want certain events to go with the beat of the song, and that would be so much easier if I could get a metronome on my flash project, and I'm running into problems with that.
I can't get an object to flash exactly 154 times every minute, because the song plays at a constant rate of 154 beats per minute. It's always a little bit off, so that after about 30 seconds, it ceases to be on beat. The object that I want to blink is called "blinker." Here is my actionscript:
Code:
var beatTimer = new Timer(60000/154); // A timer for how often I want it to appear (154 times every minute, or 154 times every 60,000 milliseconds)[code].......
Is it possible to set a buffer of 10 minutes to either Flash Media Live Encoder or Flash Media Streaming Server? We're considering setting up a live stream for a gaming tournament, but we are concerned about players being able to cheat by watching the live stream while they play.

View 6 RepliesI have a problem where I am trying to make the second, minute and hour hand tick correctly.I made timers with 1000 ms, 60000 ms and 3600000 ms initially and that worked but i wanted it to speed up so I divided all 3 by some amount,However, when I did that the minute hand and hour hand starts ticking way too soon in relation to the second hand Is there something I did wrong in the scaling down of the milliseconds?

I am building a control to allow me to set a meeting time, and I would like it to use as a default, the current time rounded up to the nearest 15 minute interval. So if it is currently 6:07, it would read 6:15 as the start time.
Does anyone know how this might be accomplished, or have run across a code snippit that would put me on the right track?
I need to make a countdown timer that starts at 1 minute, in this format 00:01:00.0.I found some code online that achieved this, but its in AS1. I've found some other examples/walkthoughs, but they are really basic and have no milliseconds.
View 2 RepliesI would like to create a digital time which only show min and sec. This time is use in a game in order to test the users speed and accuracy. When the user finished the game, the time will stop and then have to check the time user has spent to finish the game. So, if the user manage to finish the game before 10 min, will get 100 points. If is between 10 and 15 min, will get 90 points and so on.

View 8 RepliesDoes anyone know why my flash site displays a white screen before the loader actually works? It kind of defeats the purpose of having a loader. I'm not familiar with xml either so could this be an issue? My swf file is only 2.2 MB
View 7 RepliesI am playing a FLV file with NetConnection & NetStream. Works great except each time I play the video, I lose about 8MB of RAM.I found numerous references to this, but haven't found a solution. I close the stream, close the connection, remove the child the vid is playing in, etc... This is for a kiosk's attract loop, where the video can play once a minute if left unattended... that's a lot of RAM gone in an hour.
