I have some sounds in a timeline ( i purposely put them on time line rather then through AS3). But is there a way to turn off all sound in the swf, like is there a global sound channel?

View 1 RepliesHow do you turn off the sound in a game only? I ask because I have two buttons in my settings: turn music on/off and sound on/off. turning music on and off is really easy because it uses a specific sound channel. But How do you turn off the volume the sound only (e.g. music is still playing but not the sound of the game)?
When I mute the sound via SoundMixer.soundtransform you can't hear anything so that's not what I wanted to have. In my game all sounds are thrown into an array. My first idea was that I go through all sounds listed in the array and turn off the volume but that's not working.
Code:
//not working
private var sounds:Array;
private var soundChannels:Array = [];

View 1 RepliesI have an animation that plays a couple of different sound effects (depending on what button is pushed). I have a checkbox that I would like to use to turn on/off the sound effects. I have read somewhere that it is possible to set up sort of a global sound that if stopped, stops all sound effects. I have tried to set this sort of thing up but no success . When I test getValue() of my checkbox it seems to work (defaulted to true) but nothing happens when I uncheck the box. What am I doing wrong? p.s. In what forum would I make the suggestion to have a new category for just sound problems? Does anyone else think it would be a good thing to sequester sound issues in their own category?
View 8 RepliesI have a pop up page with a swf file that will call a second swf file: var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); addChild(myLoader); var url:URLRequest= new URLRequest("File2.swf"); myLoader.load(url);But the sound keeps playing even after the popup page closed.I did some research, got this code, but don't know how to implement it into the codes above:
SoundMixer.stopAll();
I am trying to make a button turn on/off a sound when pressed. I have tried to code it, but it does nothing everytime.
I have a sound in the library, with a linkage name of "sound" it is on the first frame in the main timeline. And i need a button to turn it off, and then on again.
I have some sound on a button and want it to be about half as loud as it actually is, do I need to edit it in a SoundEdit program? Or can I just make it play half as loud from within Flash?
View 1 RepliesI have a flash application written in action script 2, and at one point it makes multiple back-to-back JavaScript requests using getUrl().
They have to be done as separate requests because IE had a limit on the length of a single request, and fails silently if that limit is passed.
When ever this happens, if the user has their sound turned on there is a barrage of "click click click".
I'll start off by saying I'm a newbie, just putting that out there. How do you make a turn by turn multiplayer flash game? I don't know if an engine is made in AS3, PHP, Javascript, or whatever,I made my game already, it's just that it isn'tmultiplayer yet. Basically, there are lines, and each player crosses out a number of lines, and the last player to cross out a line is the loser. I want it where one user crosses out some lines, then presses End Turn, then the other does their turn and then presses End Turn to allow the other player to move his cursor. But how can I get both players to see the same frame and only have one player have the ability to move the cursor during a turn? Is there some easily adaptable multiplayer engine for flash for newbies out there
View 2 RepliesI am triggering short sounds dynamically from the library for a game (Specifically Air for Android). When the user clicks a button the sound can take up to 600ms to actually play. I have set it for any silence before the actual sound by calling the sound like so:

All return the same results. I know there are threads here that talk about this but none have offered a real solution that I can find. Is there no way to cache the sound or store it in a buffer?
Is there any way to turn off the autodocking panels. I just want my panels to be free floating and not stick together. The way they dock and stick together is the worst.

View 4 RepliesI know virtually nothing about Flash so I'm kind of casting about in the dark.
I have the misfortune of being a BT customer, and whilst I have reasonable bandwidth (can view streaming high res video fine) I always have problems listening to radio programmes from the BBC. I think it could be buffering due to traffic shaping, or it could be the Flash applet used to play the content, or something else.
Is it possible to bring up some kind of debugging console, or view some kind of error log to see if there is some diagnostic information that could be useful in finding the problem?
How would I turn something like this...

View 3 RepliesI know how to turn music on/off but I now want to find out how to do the following. On 50cent.com, you can select from a variety of songs, then play the one you wish. I want to know how to do that, with the buttons changing the songs, then being able to press play, and stop. Could someone tell me how to do this, or redirect me to a tutorial that will teach me. I have flash mx, so you could post a flash mx tutorial if you wish. Another example is shown on West49.com, but I dont need to know how to open the playlist option they have. Just a simple left and right button changing the songs, thena a play and a stop button.

How do I turn a value into something i can use without the "-" negative value if there is one.
I have an "imageLoaderHost" movieclip and I need it's x position to be usable wherever its at. for instance:
if imageLoaderHost is at -1258(x position), I need "b1" to go to 1258 (without the "-" as you can see).
I was just wondering if there's a way to write code for a button so it will, e.g., make a movie clip visible with one click, then hide it with a second click?what I usually do is give the mc two frames, so on click one it goes to frame 2 while it changes the visibility or alpha, and on frame 2 sends it back to frame 1 while changing the mc back. But I would like the flexibility of doing it on the fly with code rather than have to fiddle with each mc.I tried doing it yesterday with an if/else if statement, like, "if alpha is 0, change it to 100, else if alpha is 100, change it to 0" but couldn't get it to work. But if that's the way to go I'll keep playing with it.

I just upgraded to CS4. I'm working with sprites and using the properties of the images I've turned off smoothing to get that retro gaming feel. However, when viewing the sprites on the stage, everything is smoothed over which makes things difficult for me to animate. When I render everything, it looks perfect, just the way I want it with smoothing off, but how do I turn off the smoothing on the stage?
View 8 RepliesI have a flash header that was never completed because the guy I hired took people's money and ran. So now I even wonder if what he said could work with my flash header is true or not. But, usually there is always a way to make it work.
I have a flash header that does two important things: 1) Upon entering the site, it loads and plays an audio track 2) Makes an animal noise when you hover over each animal menu item. (not sure if I'm able to give a link to it or not on here. If I able to and someone would like to see it let me know)
I want to know if my flash header can support the following additional functionality/changes:
1) Currently, it loads everytime a page is selected. I only want it to load the one time of entering the site because the audio gets annoying. Set a cookie maybe?
2) But, I do not want to turn the audio off completely because I still want the hover over each menu item sound.
3) Have a link on it to allow them to select to turn on / off the sound completely. It currently has that, but only for the current page. Once you select another page, the audio is back to on.
4) Lastlly, is there a way for it to detect that someone doesn't support flash and to display an html version of it? And can flash create a html version from my fla file?
I don't know much about flash (but am learning) so I'm not sure if I'll be able to do this myself. However, I want to find out if my flash header will even work this way before I invest the time learning it just for these changes. I know it will be pretty deep with script code, but I'm hoping I could find base code already available for these features. Not sure I can afford help now because of being laid off and two different scammers taking advantage of me. So I'm going to try to do myself and see if there is any suggestions/support on here that can help. I have Flash CS4.
