Does anyone know what would make a movie slow down the longer it is open. Theres nothing that I can think of this is constantly running, but after about 15 minutes of the website being open it slows down almost unresponsive.

In particular how you hover your mouse over a section and a group of images slide left or right, but the move quickly to begin with and then slow down....
This is my movie here [URL]
I have the button areas working correctly..I just want them to slow down when its time to stop?
I can no longer see my code. I've tried two different .fla files, one I made and one someone sent me, but no luck. Clicking on the first frame on the Actions layer, I either press F9 or right-click and choose actions. The properties panel changes, but the code list window does not open.
View 2 RepliesI have a movie. In it are some buttons and a dynamic text field. When I press the buttons is should load text from a database into the dynamic text field. If I run the movie by itself (ie. not by LoadMovie()-ing it into a different movie) the dynamic text field gets filled with text and all is well and good. However, when I use LoadMovie() to load this very same movie into my main movie, the buttons no longer work; the text field stays empty.

I'm trying to make straight lines grow out of a stationary dot, like veins. I've tried shape tween, but it only works for shapes, not lines. I'd just get a blank workspace when I hit play. I've also tried motion tween, but I can't get the line to grow continuously to a point.
View 11 RepliesI work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
I have an instance of a movie clip on the stage that jumps to different labels (within the movieclip) when the large buttons at the top of the scene are in rollover state. The problem is that it stays there when the mouse leaves the button.
How do I make that symbol go back to frame one (not there) within the movie clip so that it disappears when there is no activity on the buttons?
Is there a button parameter like MOUSE_OFF (I know that's not one)?
I have made a pixel font using an array and have made it so it scatters from the mouse, (magnetic effect).Example at BladeMonkey Test Page.However if i make this string longer it slows down quite severly.
View 1 RepliesI have a button in a Flash project I've made. It's used to jump to another place on the root timeline, labelled "Why". It used to work perfectly.I have now placed the button inside a movie clip (it has to be in an animated sequence), but now it no longer works. It appears to work fine, the rollover state works and all. But when clicked it does nothing.The code I use to work the buttons goes on the main timeline, the code for this button is:mc_anim_backdrops_menu.btn_subsection1.onRelease = function() { gotoAndStop("Why"); _global.swfloaded = "";}Why does it no longer work? and what can I do to fix it?The question is posted here over at Experts Exchange URL...what we've tried there is tracing the problem. The code seems to be pointing to the right place, but none of the actual function works.. as you'll be able to see if you open up the attached file (and change it's extension from .txt to .fla to get it working)
View 3 RepliesI have created an animation in Flash which is 2mins long at 25fps, so 3000 in frame length. However when I export it as either a swf or a mov it plays for 6mins! The frame rate is definetely 25fps in Quicktime export settings also but still it doesn't play for the correct duration? The Quicktime movie says 6mins also desptire the fps matching.
The movie is a standard timeline animation?
The only thing I get is a swf file.I don't really know why Flash CS 5.5 refuses to generate my project's apk file since I've never encountered a problem like this before. Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong? My player is set to AIR for Android,I have my certificate,I don't get any errors, and debugging on my device via USB works flawlessly.

I have created a logo using several objects. And they come one by one on my stage while playing. But these objects (which all are movie clips) coming too fast.
View 9 RepliesI'm currently making an animation which will eventually exceed the 16,000 frame limit (don't ask haha), so, short of making two movies and having to just start up the next one, what is the code for loading a movie? I presume they need to be in the same directory? So basically all I want is on the last frame of the movie the code executes and the second movie file opens up and starts. I guess I'd want the current movie to close, too.
View 1 Repliesis there a way to speed up flash movies playing when put up on the web. I created a web banner and uploaded it, when I open the website on the browser the flash movie pauses for a few minutes and does not play straight away. Is there any actionscript that will ensure the flash movie will play instantly when on the web? Is it the file size that is causeing the swf to run slower? Is it anything to do with the publish settings in the fla file?
View 4 RepliesI animate flourish using adobe flash then export it as swf to use it again in another flash movie
when i import it i use these steps:
1- I make a symbol(movie clip)
2- I import the swf to the stage
3-then I back to Scene1 to control its size and position in my movie
BUT when I finish all these steps and play my movie the flurish too slow and not soft as original its cracks!
I'm currently working on my personal site and I noticed if I have more than one mc in my timeline, when i test movie, it seems bogged down. I used vector shapes and tweened them (nothing complicated). Can anyone provide me with some info on how to prevent this or lead me to a site that explains this sort of stuff.
View 2 Repliestrying to make things for my classroom. Dawsonk was kind enough to help me out with it months ago, but I had a computer crash at school and lost it. Unfortunately the school system doesnt try to recover stuff, they just wipe it.What I want is basically a gaming wheel (like at a carnival, the kind you spin).I want to be able to have a .jpg or something that I can modify (if I change the lesson later, or for different outcomes, just replace the .jpg with a same sized wheel).I just want to hit a button, make it spin, slow down, and stop. Maybe a second graphic of just a pointer at the top that overlaps it so you know where it lands. It doesn't even have to stop exactly on one 'category' or 'slot'. It just needs to slow down and stop randomly.

I have a movie on the stage called wheel_mc that I want to slow down and stop using action script rather than use easing on the tween in the movie. It has 200 frames and when it gets to frame 100 it starts to slow down and by the time its reached frame 200 its completely stopped.
View 10 RepliesIt seems the drawing API can quickly slow down a movie, just by drawing a bunch of static (unanimated) lines on the screen. In contrast to movieclips, of which it can handle thousands without slowdown. Makes me wonder why it doesn't just handle drawn lines as movieclips? Why does the linedrawing become slow so quickly, and is there any way to prevent this from happening?I written a quick test, and it appears to slow down, while drawing, after just 300 lines, while only after 2000 mc's the fps start to dip slghtly, while placing them. I also tried drawing every line in it's own layer but it remains much the same.
View 0 RepliesI wondered if someone might be able to help me with this. I have a horizontal, infinately-scrolling movie. I would like it to slow down and come to a stop when the mouse is not over the movie.
The movie is contained within an HTML page, and if your mouse leaves the movie, it just keeps on scrolling and is very distracting.
I have a movie with this script in the first frame:
Code:
//MOVIE CLIP LOADER FOR EXTERNAL MOVIES
var loadListener:Object = new Object ();

I need to slow down, then stop a movie clip animation usig AS3.The slowdown will be triggered by clicking a stop button.

In terms of performance, does loading .swfs into a flash movie have any implications. I've been experimenting with loading complex swfs into a simple movie and the complex .swf seems to perform a lot slower within the .swf than as a standalone. The host movie has no other funcitonality other than as a simple container. Is it in general terms better not to load .swfs into a movie but to code everything inside 1 movie ?
