I am fairly new to ActionScript, therefore I do not yet understand the syntax properly and understand ActionScript 3.0 would be easier for myself to learn first, however my movie is quite big as it is and unless I can convert it to ActionScript 2.0 I'll need to learn how to do this.
I have five images on five different frames in my example. I always want to display the first two images (frames 1 and 2), but only show 3, 4 or 5 depending on the current month.
If it is January, I want to display frame 3 and then loop back around to frames 1 and 2. If February, frame 4 and loop back to frames 1 and 2, etc.
Right now I'm just testing it with a "4" for the month hard-coded in and it just plays the whole slideshow.
So, I have the following actionScript for frame 3:
stop();
var theDate;
var month;
var month_frame;

I have built a really basic way to determine what slide to show depending on an nsTime var. It works, but is way over bloated. I keep thinking of just one function to do the test, but think the whole else/if statement needs to be there for it to work. So for the most code awesome wranglers here, what would you do? (knowing I don't know classes, etc.). I would love to do something completely different like cue points but all the videos are done and I have a day to keep my job 8^( Lastly

im building my site now and i want to have background of hexagons that get visible only when the mouse is at certain distance of them, so i found out that i have to use as3, ive read some tutorials and other post and i tried the following code that i found online:

function showDistance(e:Event):void{
var distance:Number = (circle.x, mouseX, circle.y, mouseY);

i couldn't find a tutorial on this matter so i sorta started making my own hypothesis... what i'm trying to do is: have a gallery of images automatically scrolling horizontally while having the set of images loop. like at[URL]..
here are a couple of my theories and questions for AS commands to have this work:
1) display a range of pixels of an image at certain positions, i.e. if gallery is scrolling to the left, leftmost image when its parts are disappearing out of the viewing area, they become visible at the right.
2) have two instances of each image and when an image is disappearing on left, the second instance of that image comes visible on the right. this I imagine would take up more HD space.
i guess what i was wondering more about is how jager did their gallery where there's only enough images are in a set to be viewed in the viewing area.

I having a hard time on a small task that I thought was easy to accomplish, but it is taking me longer than expected and not the results I am wanting.I am developing a shooting game. I have a hero that can shoot only so often (once every half second for example). I am trying to scale a MovieClip depending on how much time is left to be able to fire again.
So when the hero shoots the gun, the MovieClip will have a scale of 0. When 250 milliseconds has elapsed, the MovieClip's scale should be at .5, assuming the gun can only shoot every half second.
Can anyone provide code on how to accomplish this? This is what I have to keep track of when the hero can shoot next,

I'm trying (and struggling) to get my head around AS3 and am building a flash webpage. I have 2 layers in the timeline, each containing a movie clip matching the page size with instance names backgroundDay and backgroundNight. What I'm wanting is for the background to change for the day and night, so that from 18:00 to 06:00 the alpha of backgroundDay becomes 0 to show backgroundNight behind.
View 5 RepliesI have a progress bar as a healthbar in a game. The healthbar regenerates 10 pr millisecond for now because i like the smoothness. But if the delay increases it would take a lot longer to regenerate.
Aren't there any formular to calculate some kind of factor for this? so the lifebar would regenerate within a constant time no matter what. If the delay is 2 seconds it would just make the regen more choppy and if delay is 1 millisecond it would just update more.

View 4 RepliesOn the website will be a downloadable file with a password.Since the beginning of the promotion there will be single letters added each hour. Probably only one visible at the time.Since this action takes place during weekend and i don't want to spend it in front of a computer updating the letters manually each hour i was wondering if there is a script which will do it for me.There is a restriction though - the whole password cannot be included in the swf file (obvious security reasons).
View 1 RepliesThis is my first flash project and I am attempting to create a slide show that automatically changes frame after a certain time, but also have buttons for each frame. [URL] is the page where i have the flash slideshow on. I used a tutorial to make the nav bar, and used what I learned there, as well as some googling to attempt the slideshow. So far I think its turned out pretty good, but I have a problem. THe buttons work fine, but the auto change gets stuck on the second slide, even if I click to a differnet button to goes back to frame 2. Which makes me think that the function doesn't even go past the if(frame==1). here is the code
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var img1FadeIn:Tween = new Tween(img1, "alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 1, 5, true);
stop();
var slideTimer = setInterval(nextslide, 8000);

I'm looking for something that automatically generates images from the content in some SWF and stores the images on a server to be fetched if the user doesn't have Flash Player installed. The purpose is to at least show a static diagram instead of just a table with data, if Flash Player isn't installed.
It's quite easy to create an image from a DisplayObject using Actionscript, but that requires someone opens the SWF in the first place. I would like this to execute on the server side. Is it possible? Is there a headless Flash Player that could be used with PHP for example?
I'm used to flash grabbing an xml file that's manually edited with image file paths. Is it possible for flash or xml to automatically grab images that are in a specific folder?

View 9 RepliesI've got index.swf which is the file with the container. main.swf is the file to be loaded onto index.swf.I can't get my main to load into the container automatically at a specific time. When I click on the button the animation plays perfectly though.Maybe because loadMovie is unable to load over index.swf?I haven't inserted code for any of the other buttons yet though. I want to be sure I can make this work before I start doing everything else. I think it shouldn't matter though cause its only meant to load at a specific time.
