I am working with CS5 and I have bunch of movie clips on the stage and each movie clip contains a kinetic typography animation. When I click on each movie clip, the animation starts to play but the problem is that it runs really slow. I use a very detailed font (Sketch Rockwell) which might be the reason for this slowness. And the whole animation looks ugly because of this.
I have a strange problem. When I run an exe projector that I exported from flash cs5.5, and on few of my client's computers it running very slow in full screen.When I running an swf file (not exe projector), also in full screen, it running well!I checked my clients computer hardware, and it match the system requirements of flash player.
is 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?
I'm using Vista 64 on a more then adequate laptop, I initially used Flash CS4 and it was great for the past week but a few days ago it started geting really slow, whenever I copy, change frame, select something, basicaly any change action I have to wait about 5 seconds or more for a reaction. I'm using it for simple animation, no symbols, just 3 layers. I have a deadline coming up for my final production and if I can't fix this fast I'm screwed. I've tried every solution I can find, including trying Flash CS3 and Flash 8, nothing seems to fix the slow speed
I develop a application based on Advance data grid. In this grid every column add with help of item render and I have added check box in all the column header also.In the Grid i used xml data provider. I am creating xml as string and cast this string in to xml.When i click any cell it takes 10-13 sec and in the cell click handler i get value of System.totalMemory is 255205376.[code]
i am building this site for my friend roddy and would like input on why it might be running slow. i know i have a bunch of videos at the bottom, but if i drop them out it still seems to run slow. i was just wondering if anyone might catch something i might be missing.
On Flash Kit there is a thread that is worrying me because I haven't used CS4 yet but by the sounds of things people are finding it run really slow when you use CS4 for animating or open a CS3 file that would normally run fast.
I'm trying to get this effect [url].. on a iPad app I'm working on in Flash. The thing is it is running very slow. Is their a way I can speed up this script?[code]...
I was just wondering if anyone could help me to figure this out - I'm afraid I'm really not sure what the problem is so I'll try to be as specific as I can, if you need me to provide any extra info then just ask.Basically I have a fla file -the menu of my game- that loads external swf files (the various game modes) when the user clicks a button. I can get everything loaded in fine, but it runs at a snails pace and occassionally generates errors (mainly caused by the game mode calling removeChild()) that don't happen when the 'game modes' are run as stand-alone swf files.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? I remove almost all listeners from the menu before I run the game modes, so there's almost nothing that could be using up processor power that's needed for the game - it's a pretty basic game anyway so it shouldn't be processor-intensive to my computer anyway. I've spotted a few other topics similar to this, but they're either not answered or the solution doesn't fit what I'm trying to do.
I've got my first RoR app deployed to Dreamhost and it's using Passenger. The one note on Dreamhost's wiki about slow response mentioned changing a RewriteRules line in the public/.htaccess file to use FastCGI. But I assume this will have no effect if I'm using Passenger, is that right? I've looked at the logs and compared them to my local logs, and it looks like there is a wider range on Dreamhost. Some responses are comparable to the quick local ones, others can take a few seconds. I'm using a Flex front end with HTTPServices to the rails backend, and I think I also need to add logging around my services to see what kind of network delay I'm getting and try to isolate where the delays are. I should also add that there is probably plenty of room for improvement in the area of eager loading associations. I think I did that a little early on, but haven't done it thoroughly through all the associations. I have the local logs set to the default where I can see all the queries, and there are a lot of them.
The script at the top is on a movieclip these buttons are contained in called buttonHolder which does what it says, and tweens the buttons across the screen to reveal a next button once an answer is chosen.
I am having a problem in Safari 4 on Mac running Flash Player 10. Really slow! I'm using some 3D features of Flash (3d rotation). The animation plays smoothly in all other browsers.
I've installed the latest updates to Flash player, and all the same.
Ever since I installed Flash CS4 on my computer, it runs fine for a while before becoming really slow to respond and a pain to use, so I have gone back to using Flash 8 which runs fine. Is this a problem with my computer or the program?
I have a site that manage uploads for our content providers, but when you run the flash movie and you start uploading a file, somewhere is the middle of the upload, a message pops saying that a script in the movie is making the flash player to run slow, and thta you computer may turn unresponive, after googling for this error i find out that my script may have a infinitive loop or function, i've been tryint to find the error on my scrip[code]....
when I'm running and not holding my keys down then the friction should slow me down. That works but the speed never stops at zero. I can't see him moving but I've put a text that draws his speed, because if the speed isn't zero and I'm not pressing any button then he will slide and that doesn't work look here: [URL] The code in the player I use is:
I have a project for mobile where some of my animations scenes look as though they are winding up or playing in slow motion (from the start). They start out slow for about three seconds, as if they are winding up or in slow motion, and then they run at a normal pace. It only happens on specific animations and is consistent on different devices. Also, once I come back to the scene (revisit), the animations run normally from start to finish.
I have had some success in speeding up some animation by doing the following: In some scenes, the following would occurr: 1) a character was walking 2) the character grew in size though tweening 3) the background was animated as well ect. In other words, there were several things happening in the animation. In this example, I made it less complex by keeping the character the same size and making the background static. This helped alot. However, for the aforemation animations, I have tried everything (I am aware of) and nothing has helped. I'm not sure what to do next.
I wrote it through the equation (n, k) = n!/(k!(n-k)!).But I found it will loose precision quickly after 12th row.So I change the way. I tried to use the properties of triangle(each row is the sum of previous row)Than I get slow in running when function reach higher degree. I just keep changing a little and a little... try to make it run faster.
I have bought a chat package, and over 9 months i am running into the problem hat it is gooing slow with more users online. So i decided to install the "flash debug player 10" and check what exacly is happening. Within 2 minutes the flashlog.txt (error log of debug player) was 195KB I will now paste the error messages that are dumped into flashlog.txt tha occur the most and i think it seems as if the error message comes from a loop, because there are so many of these warnings:
I have a movie clip that scrolls side to side when you rollover it but when the mouse is off it continues to scroll - I need the movieclip to slow to a stop when the mouse rolls of the movieclip. I've have been playing arounds with the hitest code (red) but this does not fix it... Its prolly a simple problem - I am not much of a coder....
I have a movieclip running inside a movieclip and i want trigger an action on the timeline in AS2 I would put _root.gotoAndPlay("start6_fl"); or _parent.gotoAndPlay("start6_fl"); depending on were I wanted to go.How do you do this really simple action in AS3?
I have instances of items on the stage, on various labelled frames. I have an actionscript class that uses gotoAndStop('framelabel') to move forwards and back. When using the IDE this works perfectly.
However, when I view the swf on its own, or in a HTML page, I get the error:
Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
If I use a timer to create a delay between gotoAndStop and trying to reference the items it also works fine. So it seems that when using gotoAndStop, the actionscript is trying to access the items on stage before they have been added to the display list.
Is there a way to force Flash to load the display list of the frame it's stopped at before trying to access those items? Surely it should load the stage instances before running the actionscript?
Below is an example of the script
Code: private function goThree(e:MouseEvent = void):void { Main.root.gotoAndStop('Three'); var btnMinus:SimpleButton = Main.root.getChildByName('btnMinusThree') as
I have a query regarding OOP and Movieclips and custom classes (something I haven't been able to get the hang of). I will try and demonstrate my question with an example (I can't think of how else to explain it).
1. I have created a custom class with a variables and a function
function myNote(myNumber){ var myNumber; }
2. I have then added a prototype of the movieClip class
myNote.prototype = new MovieClip();
3. Created another function
myNote.prototype.onMouseUp = function(){ trace("The number of the note you have clicked is: "+ this.myNumber); }
4. Finally I have registered the custom class with a movieclip in the library
Object.registerClass("note", myNote);
5. Then I create a few instances of the movieClip on stage
THE PROBLEM: Now that I have three instances of the movieClip on the stage, so when I click on any of them, the function (onMouseUp...) is summonded and the number (myNumber) of the movie clip is traced in the output window.But instead of showing the number of the movieClip i clicked on, I get the numbers of ALL the movieclips on stage.Why is the function running for all the movieclips on stage? Where am I going wrong? You see ultimately I would like that whichever movieClip i click on, it should change a varibale flag (which will be defined in the class) to activated, but if I face the above problem, then all movieclips will have their flag values changed to activate irrespective of which i click on.
I am trying to gradually slow down a movie clip using Actionscript 3. My current code plays the movie clip and then abruptly stops and ticks ahead a few frames. A much rougher look than I want.
var t:Timer=new Timer(2000,1); t.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,slowDown); t.start(); function slowDown(e:TimerEvent):void {
I've made a MovieClip of an electric wire with 3 different keyframes with a few frames between each. The first 2 keyframes have a single bitmap in each with a different picture, I want it to cycle between these two to make it look like the electricity is moving and not just sitting there. The 3rd keyframe has nothing, eventually I will put an image with the electricity off, so the player can walk through, I just haven't done it yet. Since I don't want it to run the last keyframe until the player turns it off, I put a gotoAndPlay(); command in the movie clip after the second frame looping it back to the first frame, problem is, the line refuses to work.
I have copied and pasted it from other programs where it worked, I have checked the Frame Name, I put other lines in there, like stop(); trace(); and other things, but could not get ANY line of code to work in the MovieClip. There's probably something like "the layer is invisible, code will not run", but I can't tell what it is. I've deleted the symbol and started over, same problem. I've restarted Flash, same problem. I've restarted the computer, same problem. I even took it to a different computer, same problem. I don't know why it won't run this code, is there something disabling it that I overlooked? I have other code in the main timeline outside the movie clip and code in other movieclips that has always worked fine and continues to work fine, I don't see what the problem is.
I ignored the problem for a while, and worked on other things, but I had to add multiple frames to an existing movieclip (which I believe was created before the other one), and now this movieclip is having the same problem. Does anyone know how to fix this, before it spreads to the rest?
I have a multiple videoplayer running in a movieclip on the timeline of another movieclip.I need to unload or stop it from playing when the timeline moves on
