Empty Char Embedding Dialogue Box?

Oct 4, 2010

I'm using flash cs4 on a mac and I need to embed some characters to support greek, and probably a lot of other languages. The problem is, my Character embedding dialogue box is empty! There's nothing in it at all... I'm using Tekton Pro as the font for that dynamic text box, I tried using something more basic, Arial and Helvitica didnt work, still nothing to embed. I know the phrase that will be in it, at least the first one, when I put it in the "Include these characters" box and reran, all the dt box would show is an apostrophe. I put the phrase into the dt filed itself and "autofilled" it did the same thing. I also tried doing the same with the % character version ie %B6, it picked up that they were characters but still wasnt displaying right. I'm diverging.

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 Dialogue Trees And Allow Them To Progress?

Feb 9, 2010

As I said once before I'm making a dialogue based flash game.I'm relatively new to flash, so I've been having to scavenge for bits of code for what I want to do...-------Right now my situation is this -When a player "talks" with a character by pressing the "talk" button I want them to be able to pick up at the conversation point they were at last time. Not a save file, but more of a progression,so if they were to explore other parts of the world and come back to the same character, they'd have to click on the same "talk" button, but //still// be advanced in their dialogue tree.

Is there a way to do with with action script code?Something that will tell flash, "Oh, this is where we left off, I'll go to the next frame of dialogue" when players clic on the "talk" button?My only idea to do something like this is quite a hassle -make a variable named "times talked to" and have the button depended on this variable, and make it gain a point every time it is pressed,but I'm under the impression that this effect can be achieved without something like this.

ActionScript 2.0 :: RPG-style Dialogue In Flash 8?

Feb 9, 2011

I'm building an RPG game and need help with the dialogue. I have no idea how to go about it. What I want to set up is something that after approaching a character and pressing spacebar (or any key), text displays with an image to the left of the character speaking. I've tried looking up tutorials but they all seem to be for CS3 (I am using Flash 8).

I currently have no code whatsoever to share, since...I don't know where to start =/ . Source codes would be appreciated, but most of all, I'd love a link to a tutorial or past thread that explains in detail (and layman terms...) how to do something like this, since I want to learn as I go.

Flex :: Convert CharCode To Char?

Feb 2, 2010

how to get the charCode from the character but I cant seem to find out how to get the character from the charcode.

Basically I am I am listening for the KeyDown event on a TextInput.

I prevent the char from being typed via event.preventDefault();

Later I need to add the text-char to the TextInput.

I can get the charCode via event.charCode so if I can turn that into a string I can save it for later user.

Why I need it

Basically I am making a TextInput, that that I can set to display default text in it. When A user types into it, I want to remove the default text first then add the user typed text.

Currently I am either removing it all, or ending up with both.

Javascript :: Can't Locate What Char 25 Of Line 1 Might Actually Mean

May 25, 2009

I have a menu screen that for various reasons consists of a number of buttons as separate flash movies. When a button inside these movies is clicked, it is supposed to call a javascript function to move to the appropriate page. It works fine in firefox, but is currently failing in IE7. I don't have an IE6 handy to test on.This is the error I get in IE:[code]I can't locate what char 25 of line 1 might actually mean. I only get the error when I click on the button, and after installing Visual Web Developer to try and get some actual debugging, it doesn't seem to be actually firing the function that is called, so it seems like the error is happening in whatever mechanism actually makes ExternalInterface.call work?[code]

But as i said it doesn't even show up if I put a breakpoint here and debug it. If I put a javascript:gohere('id') link in the html screen and click that it works fine.I have ExternalInterface.call working in other parts of the same project, and can't for the life of me see any differences in the way it has been implemented.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Close The RPG Text Box After The Dialogue Is Completed?

May 20, 2010

I have been using this tutorial to get RPG text boxes in my game. So far, so good. The RPGtext.as I'm using comes from that tutorial, and hasn't been altered, while I'm calling the var arrays containing the character speeches from yet another document class. Something like this:

[Code]....

The dialogue begins and it's all good. Now, here's my dilemma: Is there a way to "shut down" the rpgText movieclip when the Dialogues.d1 has no more text to provide? Each time I press the rpgText movieclip, it refreshes with new text, but when it reaches the final text, I want to be able to press it and make it go away (remove movieclip from scene, something like that).

I tried the "if (Dialogues.d1.length == 0)", but it doesn't work. Is there a way to detect if the Dialogues.d1 has reached its final sentence? Will it be necessary to alter the rpgText.as?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating Flash Game With Story Dialogue

Mar 9, 2011

I'm using Macromedia Flash Professional 8 at the moment, and I'm fairly inexperienced with actionscript and most Flash processes. What I'm looking to do is create a game of sorts where characters appear on either side of the screen and a dialogue box appears at the bottom with text scrolling across every time the player clicks "Next" or whatever, and the characters' mouths move and their eyes blink as the text scrolls. We're using voice actors so we'd put an audio clip at the start of each piece of dialogue.

Flash :: HTTP Authentication Using Htaccess/htpasswd Dialogue Box Comes Up Twice?

For some reason, when I access the subfolder, I'm asked to put in my id/password twice. All of the files that are referenced are under the subfolder.

What should I be doing to troubleshoot this? I've tried this on different browsers and it's the same behavior. There is one main html page with a .swf (the only thing on the page)...it loads other assets but they are within the same subfolder.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Splitting Dialogue Text Into Smaller Chunks/Lines?

Apr 27, 2010

I'm working on an RPG engine where all the dialogue is stored in an XML file. Ideally like to be able to pass the engine a large paragraph of dialogue text and display it bit by bit inside a fixed-width text field without splitting any words.So for example, if I were to pass the following chunk of text:"Good countrymen, let me depart alone, And, for my sake, stay here with Antony. Do grace to Caesar's corpse, and grace his speech. Tending to Caesar's glories; which Mark Antony"The engine would work like this:"Good countrymen, let me depart alone, " - PRESS SPACEBAR"And, for my sake, stay here with Antony. " - PRESS SPACEBAR"Do grace to Caesar's corpse, and grace his speech. " - PRESS SPACEBAR"Tending to Caesar's glories; which Mark Antony" - PRESS SPACEBARDoes anyone have any ideas how I could achieve this?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create An Array For Every Time Two Characters Exchange Three Lines Of Dialogue?

Jul 9, 2009

i'm creating a very linear game which will be dialogue-heavy. In fact, there will be little action involved at all. Think a game storybook. I'm using ActionScript 2 because AS3 is just too complicate for the type of newbie that I am. But all I'm trying to do is set up dialogue between two characters in my game with an image of the speaking character to the left of the textbox. Something very much like this:I considered creating arrays for the dialogue but my problem is that if I create an array for every time two characters exchange three lines of dialogue, I would end up with over 300 arrays. Not my cup of tea.

So, instead, I focused on this. I created a function called speak. Speak pulls two parameters: charNum and charText. CharNum is a number which specifies which frame of the charPic instance should be displayed, showing which character is currently speaking. CharText is simply the dialogue the character will speak, which will be displayed in the dynamic textbox with variable name 'dialogue'.The following code is an example of what I have at home. I'm at work trying to get help, so I don't have the actual coding. Therefore, small errors may be present. I'm looking more at the overall functions guiding my code.

[Code]...

You see, AS2 sees these as I believe what is called synchronous functions, meaning they run at the same time. Therefore, the second speak function overwrites the first one before the user presses the space bar to go to the next one. See the issue?I've tried to seek help on this issue (and other before), and I keep getting told about arrays and setInterval. But my problem is that I've tried it all. I don't see a good array tutorial about this type of thing, and setInterval doesn't function like I'd want as well. Instead, it seems that from what I've read and tried, setInterval is for setting a delay up for a certain amount of time. I don't want that. I want a delay to occur until a button (namely the space bar) is pressed.

Like I said, this seems like a fairly common thing to do (stringing together dialogue in a flash movie/game), but I have seen no tutorial nor other help through all my Google and forum searching. A little push in the right direction would be appreciated. Like I said, I've figured out everything else my game needs from preloaders to game inventory to animation effects.
