ActionScript 3.0 :: Way Of Saving Times To A Word Document
Apr 8, 2012
I've created numerous games which load and unload off a main menu.The player enters their name on the main menu before playing any games and when the player completes a game I want to save their time (taken to complete the game) and unload this time back into the main menu.Is there any way of saving the times using AS3 to a word document or something like this? I can't send the times to my website with php because the games will be used within a competition and it all needs to work with the internet.
I'll explain a little before asking my question ...

Edit: var dataloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); var dataarray:Array = new Array(); // do this where you intialise other vars
Is Flash a part of Captivate or do I need it to be able to put interactive quizzes into a document. It sort of sounds like Captivate 5.5 is all that I would need. My basic task is to take a PDF file and/or a MS word document and add interactive quiz questions to the document. I don't even need to record them to a database. I have been trying to learn what a bunch of these Adobe products are and what they do and don't do for over a week and finally I got some real help in this forum this morning.
I'm developing an interactive CD. I need to be able to allow the user to open Word and PDF files. I'm not sure how to do this. I've tried using getURL, but that doesn't work. I'm a bit saturated and can't think how I can do what I need.
I want to save the contents of my Flex application form into a word document. It has rich formatting, hyperlinks, etc. Is is possible to do this? The output can be either ".doc" or ".rtf" file.
So I've got an .swf file embedded in a document (SMART board in this case, but a simple Word doc would probably serve in the same fashion). I'm trying to replicate the same functionality I see in another .swf. Basically its got a configuration menu where you can open and configure the .swf to behave differently, then save off and have it keep that. More importantly, if I close the document and re-open, it keeps the configuration. Harder yet, if I mail the document to someone else, it will keep the configuration.
Oops, its that last step that kills me. I understand how to use shared objects to save settings locally. I don't believe they're using server based shared objects in this case (no maintained server for it). So how can they be saving settings that travel with the document?
I'm working on a Character Creator for a game engine (2d) and I use Drag-and-Drop to combine parts... If I fully combine the character, how can I save the area, where the combined chara is? I want, that an area (like a pink square) would be saved to ex. Desktop, when I press Save...
I have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.
I am doing drag-the-word quiz. When you match the word with correct part, the message pop out, saying Bingo! If the word is matched with wrong part, the "Sorry. Try Again" message pops out, says "Sorry. Try Again". I managed to make the "Sorry. Try Again" message disappear. However it dun work anymore after that. Sometimes it is quite funny. When I play it, the "Sorry. Try Again" message dun pop out at all.
Another problem - I am not sure how to make the word fit into the white box. I only know how to make the word drop on the white box. Can you tell me how to do it? I will be adding voiceovers to the quiz when the word is matched with the part. For e.g it will say "bingo" or "Sorry. Try Again". How to attach the voiceovers to it?
create the word which changing many time and in the end become a clear word like what's happend exactly in horizintal menu in [URL] That's what i wanted the changing in words like that menu?
I have a AS3 file I used in Flash CS4 that worked just fine. The preloader at the beginning of it worked normally.When I started using it in Flash CS5 it stopped working....at first it would jump around the number instead of going up from 0% to 100%. Then it just quit working all together..I tried saving the swf as a Flash CS4 document in flash cs5 .Here is my code:
Ok so If I load a list of like 2000 words from a text file into a text box like this
ActionScript Code: var url:String = "dictionaries/"aa.txt"; var loadit:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); loadit.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
[Code]....
how could I randomly choose a word from the list and have it as a variable
system to browse offline howeverthis doesn't work correctly for any less then ActionScript 3. Whenyou highlighted a word in the past such as "null" it use to pull upthe word and the info in all the books. Now all I see is a webbrowser that doesn't do this for me. I mean who sits there atadobe's end and thinks up of ways to slow someone down like this??How can you remove the corequick linking from the program.Number 1 not everyone is on AS3 and some of us still have to updateAS2 code.
i'm new to AS3. how do i go about executing a custom function n number of times and then executing another function n number of times repeatedly?
eg.
function firstOne():void { }
function secondOne():void { }
i need firstOne() executed say 3 times and then secondOne() 3 times and then firstOne 3 times again and so on. i'm trying to move a movieclip 3 times to the left and then 3 times to the right continuously.
Can I set the style of another document from it's parent document? At the moment its giving me the error 1119: Access of possibly undefined property StyleManager through a reference with static type DesignCardForm.
We have a requirement to show documents (if we have URL for a document) within Flash. We have a need use embedded document viewer for MS Office and PDF documents. Are there any Flash controls available to acheive this?
I have a FLA (say Main.FLA) document class with a child MovieClip on the stage: into the child MovieClip I load other swf files: each of the files contains its own Document Class (every swf is a somewhat independent application, say quizzes and so on).For some reason I must use the Main document class to store data (scores or so) from the child swfs loaded into the Main swf. HOW do I reference the Main class? I can't find a way.[code]and dispatch an Event this way from the loaded swf document class to the Main class:[code]Now, first of all I don't know if this could even work. Secondly, I tried to make it work by adding an event listener to my Main class but id did not work.
So I had a working .fla, with a document class package in the same directory. Everything was fine, until moving both to a new directory, now the fla cannot find the document class. WTF?
I am looking to develop an application to read in a list of 10000+ wordlist and create a function which efficiently and quickly checks if the word exists on the list.function shd be optimized to be called several times..
I am trying to locate the letter at a certain number of characters after a word.For instance, in this sentence:"Hello, I really like dogs"I want to find the character of position 7 after the word "really", which in the above sentence would be the letter "d"
How do I get a word from a string?If a string is also an array I should be able to do it but so far no luck.Searching for a substring is useful if I know the correct index, like in[code]...
