what is involved to create a Flash file where the user can upload a .jpg of their face, crop it, and then add that picture to an animation? I'm sure you've all seen this...sort of a jib-jab type animation.
View 1 RepliesI am willing to make a customize avatar for a registered user where the accessories will be save in a database. The item will be pulled from database to flas and after the user finished creating his avatar this will be save in the database. I mean my avatar application will be as like as farmville avatar customizetion using flash,php and mysql. I am fadeing up to find this solution.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to develop a system where the player can change the colors of the various components that make up an avatar (hair, eyes, etc.).
The original components, with no change of color, would be composed of shades of gray.
So for example, a player selects the red hair (255,0,0). The pixels of the hair with an intermediate gray (128,128,128) would become the chosen red (255,0,0). As for the lighter gray color, become lighter shades of red chosen. Just as the colors become darker gray shades darker red chosen.[url]...
ive created a flash website that allows users to change the clothes and for the character, how do i save it so that it appears on other pages as well.
for eg, when user change the character at the customize character page, after saving, it will replace the movieclip for the character. when the user click other page for eg, contact us page, the updated character will appear there
another qns.. after i uploaded the website, will every user be viewing the same character or refreshed to the default character each time they view the website?
I have some beautiful CATS drwan up for me. In typical avatar style you can change the colour, hat etc... of your avatar.What is the best set up for the assets.
1. Would I programatically import the HAT asset for example when chosen by the user
2. Would I have all the assets sitting inside on a layer inside the avatar - then it would be MASSIVE
Once the avatar is created it needs to walk around my virtual world etc... I don't want the MASSIVE avatar walking around with all the assets inside it.How would I only get what the user chose ie: A red cat with a black hat.Also, the colours would be best to programme them in otherwise I would have to have 10 different coloured copies. Is that right?
A rather large project (rich web application) has fallen into my lap and I am unfamiliar with how to accomplish a major functionality. in the right direction.I need users to be able to customize a 3D avatar and store it on the server somehow. The user can choose a body type, hair style, hair color, clothing, accessories, etc. The user can then choose from a number of different environments to place their avatar into, a specific animation (dance moves, playing an instrument, etc.), and an audio file. The audio file would then play while the avatar performed the animations within the selected environment.
How should we go about doing this? What technology should we use? Ideally, my colleagues and I would use MoCap software (w/ Microsoft Kinect) to complete 3D base models and animations for the avatars. Is it possible to then dynamically skin / texturize the models with the user's stored avatar? If so, how would I accomplish this? Does anyone have any other suggestions on how we would go about solving this problem?
I'm interested in building an avatar maker in Flash, similar to the one seen here:[URL]The twist, though, is to allow users to save their work out as a JPG (or as an animated GIF, alternating between the created avatar and the client's logo and URL,) sized just right for a forum or LiveJournal avatar.
I haven't seen many examples of Flash outputing dynamic images... the best one I could find was, oddly enough, on a movie website for Starsky and Hutch. They have a Flash application that lets users build their own wallpaper and then offers it up as a JPG: [URL] I'm thinking Flash 8's bitmap features would allow this to happen, but then again, that movie came out two years ago... how did they make it work back then?

I am using a progam called Smart Fox Server and they said on the forum that It's not SmartFox related (and this forum is mainly for SFS related issues). You need to create these interaction within Flash. So I came here. I am trying to get the users Id if you click on them. I know the command to get the ID but i dont know how to get flash to recgognise the avatar as a user.
the command is user.getId()
I need to create an avatar creator, the concept is simple. We have a base image for a head, on top of this we layer on other elements (eyes, nose, mouth), saving it converts the image on the flash widget into a .jpg. I'm confident in my ability to create the interface, I have basic knowledge of AS 3 and flash in general, but I'm unsure how to go about this. I want to pass a variable to flash to indicate who the user is who's editing his or her avatar. Then I want to pull some kind of db file to have the image re-construct itself in flash (maybe from an XML file - so it would need to create/update an xml file).
View 1 RepliesI'm working on this small project to demonstrate how flash works to a few friends and I am trying to make a small avatar have some animation and upon mouse roll over grow and after removing mouse the avatar will shrink. There is also supposed to be a message displayed over the avatar and upon clicking the avatar the message changes. I have the avatar shrinking/growing thing done and its working fine and I also have the message to be displayed but I cannot seem to link the two into one actionscript file so they both appear at the same time.
Here are the codes:
i) for the avatar shrinking/growing
package { import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
public class U1A3_Stickman extends MovieClip {
private var _origXScale:Number;
[Code] .....
I've tried to simply insert the document class into the flash with the avatar shrink/grow code but it's not working.
I have seen numerous tutorials to retrieve a feed. I can't however see anything on how to get the users avatar to display. Is it even possible in Flash?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to create an avatar that faces the position of the cursor and follows a walking loop while it moves towards the mouse click anywhere on the stage.

View 0 RepliesFor the past two months I have been developing a new kind of Flash chat that allows you to fly around in a 2D virtual room with an animated graphical avatar. You can also upload your own picture for an avatar. The special thing about this chat is that it works with MySQL and PHP, so no fancy servers are needed. It can easily be customized in terms of design. Switch out the background image and the avatar icons and you have a completely new chat room. Flash AS3 Avatar Chat v0.94 BETA.

Okay, so I am calling my scripts from the folder "php/" Thus, my FileReference calls "php/upload.php" to upload. However, my uploads are in "uploads/" and not in "php/uploads". When the PHP script is called, it apparently ignores the caller (the SWF file) and looks for uploads in its own directory (the "php/" folder). It may be a PHP question, but how do I reference the uploads folder as being in the parent directory of the php files in my PHP script?

View 1 RepliesI have the project where I need to use papervision3d engine. It's 3d model of building. Each floor is separate .dae model embedded within swf file. Everything is okay regarding performance, but z-sorting of BasicRenderEngine is making me sad. If you take a look over attached image you will see that sometimes wall faces appear above cover and backwise, cover faces appear above wall. Each floor model was made with Swift3d by path extrussion. It has two types of material: one for wall and another for cover. Is there any way I can go through all faces and regading material applied to it assign them ViewportLayer and sort index ?
I tried to use QuadrantRenderEngine, it does correct z-sorting, but is CPU killer.
is it possible to rotate an object so that it always faces another object that is able to move around the screen? as in track it on the y and x axis?
View 2 RepliesI have a flash movie i would like to create that will be around 400px x 500px.
I would then like to have a rhino charging towards you (the user) so it would have the effect that the rhino is trying to break the screen to charge at you (face on) but it stumbles because of the glass on the screen.
how they would go about this animation?
I am making a simple Flash animation that I would like to put online and let people visiting my site upload a picture of their face so they can be the character, like on Elf Yourself. How do I do that? I'm assuming I make the animation with a square image of a face that I mask out, and the image gets replaced when a new one is uploaded, but I don't know how to set that up dynamically, or if there's a better way.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to accomplish something with flash but I'm having some problems, if not a solution I'm hoping someone can tell me a method and what I should read up on to do this: I want to have an image on the stage that has a gap the shape of a face in the middle of it, I'd then like to put a webcam feed behind it so people can line their face up in the gap and press a button to take a picture. (I've managed to put the webcam on the stage and take the picture but can't work out how to put it behind an image). Then I cant quite work out how I'd put the face onto a character I've drawn.

I'm trying to get my font to change when clicking a button.
The text field itself is inside a movie clip called draggabletext. The inside text field is called tfield, and is dynamic with a var: output2. It renders as HTML (but doesn't have to if you have a better solution). It gets its text from a different input field.
I have a "dropdown" menu with 2 buttons (instance names arial and georgia).
On the root I have this code:
Code:
onEnterFrame = function() {
draggabletext.output2 = "<font face="" +textface+ "" color=""+textcolor+"">" + inputBox.text + "</font>";
[Code]...
I have embedded the fonts. Still, I can not get the text to change between the font faces when I click the buttons.
Since each face of the Script 3D rotating cube is a movieclip, I thought you could load an image on it. I couldn't get that to work.
