IDE :: Playing Multiple MovieClips One After Another
Feb 17, 2010
I have a few movieClips and I would like them to play one after the other. [At end of MovieClip play next movieClip]. Using AS3 to Tween, this is my first Clip props.
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var myTween:Tween = new Tween(FloatRight_mc, "x", Regular.easeOut, 22.00, 495.95, 3, true);
var myTweenAlpha:Tween = new Tween(FloatRight_mc, "alpha", Regular.easeOut, 1, 0, 3, true);
How do I get the next movieClip to start playing before its completion, and so on?
I have a group of 16 images that I would like to load 1 of each into each movieclip. I want image1 to be inside of visual1, image 2 inside of visual2, and so on. the images are named like, 1960s_(1).png where the 1960 (year) part is coming from the rangeNum variable. The above gives me this error: 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type int.
I have 50 images that need to be on stage, which will be embedded into 50 different movie clips. I named the movie clips image1-image50 and the images are in an external folder named 1-50. Every freaking article or tutorial I have found clearly explains how to upload one image, or just one at a time. I can do that, and spend 2 days renaming all the functions, but I do not want to do that. Is there a better way to just load all 50 images, place them accordingly?
I have 24 movie clips on the stage: my_menu.image_holder_mc1 thru my_menu.image_holder_mc24. I want to load an image in each one. How do I identify the holder which to add a child.
The Code I have so far is....
Code: for (var i:Number=1; i<=24;i++){ var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); myLoader.name = "image_"+i;
I am trying to play a couple of movie clips one after the other one. In other words, I would like movie clip A to run and execute the AS attached, then I would like movie clip B to run and execute the AS attached to it
I'm trying to make a menu that has multiple movie clips as buttons and control them all with an array and one event listener. There will be many movieClip buttons on my page but for now I have two animated movieClips each with a stop(); action on fram one. The movieClips have 15 frames of animation. The main timeline of my movie has only 1 frame. Each movie clip is on it's own layer. If I create an event listener without the array I can get the buttons to work individually but when using the Array I can't get it to work.
Code: Select allvar buttonArray : Array = [btnA, btnB,]; for each (var button : MovieClip in buttonArray) { button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, _handleMouseEvents); } function _handleMouseEvents(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(1); }
When I use the trace function instead of gotoAndPlay(1); it works perfect? Code: Select allvar buttonArray : Array = [btnA, btnB,]; for each (var button : MovieClip in buttonArray) { button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, _handleMouseEvents); }
I am working on a simple slideshow composed of 5 movieclips that need to play randomly when the page loads, I have looked everywhere for a solution to my problem but nothing i have tried has worked... I haven't touched as3 in forever, and am a very rusty beginner.
How to build the flash presentation in AS3 by loading movie clips from library. I have 3 movie clips in library mc_1, mc_2, mc_3 we have to play one by one.
I wanna play several swf files at the same time with the method loadclip in a movieclip object.However, I do not want that all the swf get their sound track played. I just want that one swf file get its sound played.Is there any way by mean of actionscript to get the rest of these movieclips with their swf videos to be quiet when their video is played?
How do I play a series of frames sequentially... (each one has a movie clip on it), and I don't want the next frame to start until the nested movie clip has finished playing?
I'm trying to trigger some events (fading of nearby movieclips) based on cue points of a currently playing FLV. I'm using the FLVPlayback component (not Netstream) and have added cue points from inside flash (so they're "Actionscript" type). I actually found a nice article here: [URL] but it's AS2. To put it simply, let's say I have the following:
1) FLVPlayback component which has a parameter called "movie.flv" for the clip that it's supposed to play. 2) The instance of the component is called "movie_inst". 3) There are 2 cue points added through the component's parameters rollout, one called "point1", another called "point2".
What's the simplest code to tell flash "when you get to point1 I want you to do ___"?
I want to have a background that has random movie clips playing. Originally I was going to have long timelines with blank frames. Is there a simple a frame action that I can use that stops the playhead and makes it wait for certain amount of time and then plays?
I just have some few questions about Buttons and MovieClips using AS3. Intro and outro of a movieclips using buttons.
Like for example: I have two buttons named buttonOne and buttonTwo. When I click buttonOne, the movie clip named oneMc should play its intro and then stop then after that whenever I click buttonTwo, the movieclip oneMc should play outro animation and then movieclip twoMc intro comes in.
Do I need to use the Loader and URLRequest for this one? Also, how can I call the movieclip to play its outro and play the next movieclip's intro?
What I would like to do is play ramdom movie clips on my main time line. I've tried using the below code, but it does not work:
Code: var frameList:Array = [1, 2]; var i:int = Math.random() * frameList.length; "mc" + frameList[i].gotoAndPlay(1);
My movie clips are named "mc1, mc2" etc. I've got them on a layer named "BG" and each movie clip is in a key frame. The ActionScript is on a seperate layer named "AS".
I've had to work on a god-awful Flash movie with lots of nested hand animated movieclips and sub-clips, all with their own timeline.Every time I'm asked to update it, I wince trying to test it and spot details for tweaking.Does anyone know of a way to stop playback of every movieclip? irrespective of how its nested and without addressing them all using dot notation.
There are loads of movieclips you see, and I want a pause control to freeze everything, I've tried this with onEnterFrame events on each movieclip looking at a _root variable called "playState", but some movie clips ignore this, and keep playing.Is there an easy way to do this other than pasting my code into everything? Is there a way of making code affect all movieclips simultaneously - halting their own timelines? Then resuming?
If I have a MovieClip with its "visible" property set to "false", would it aid performance to "stop()" its timeline? Or will that have no effect, since its not being rendered, anyway?
I have two movieclips on the same frame but on different layers located within the movieclip. The first movieclip plays just fine. However, the second one isn't going ahead even a single frame. The code that I have mentioned below is located withing the second movieclip containing background image. And I think this code is causing the issue because when I remove this it plays perfectly fine. The function of this code is to automatically re-size background image with the browser dimensions. The whole code just worked fine on the main timeline.However, when I shifted it inside a movieclip its causing an issue.
//set stage for FBF stage.align = "TL"; stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
What I have is a SWF that loads multiple smaller SWFs into an array and then uses buttons to switch between them in a movie clip container on the stage.
Everything works when I pub my main SWF and even when I run it in a browser from my desktop.
When I upload to the server and try to run it online, I run into this problem. All the SWFs load, but only the last one to load actually plays in the container. The others seem to be stuck in frame 1.
The clips have no code in them, they are simple animations. And if I change the load order, still only the last clip plays. So I know it isn't the SWFs causing the problem. I am locked into using IE 8 and the flashplayer is version 10.3.
Anyone know of any issues with IE 8 or a reason that only the last file loaded would play?
here is my code, but as I said it seems to work fine until I run it online.
Working on a project with multiple sounds (all contained in different MCs) played by different key board events. Most of it works, but when I try to use simultaneous 2 button combinations to call upon a different sound, all 3 sounds play at once. The 3 sounds are as follows: the sound associated with the first button, the sound associated with the second button, and the sound associated with the 2 button combo. I've made several different true/false statements to override different events and states, but they don't affect the playing of the MCs. I've also tried using attachSound but I don't like the results I'm getting from that either.
How can I stop the first 2 sounds from being played, so only the 3rd sound can be heard?
loading multiple swf's as a playlist and playing them one after other on top of the other, so here even we have to play with display list for the visiblity. Tried to load single files but not getting for multiple files, what will be the event with which the dynamically loaded swf switch to other.These file names will be mentioned in XML file.
I have several SWF files which are essentially little trivia files, provided to me by a 3rd party. They are individual files that number about 20. I am wondering, how can I play this as a list; like a playlist, and then loop back to restart? I'd like to do this in the stand alone player however it can only seem to load 1 file at a time. How I might look to accomplish this looping playlist?
I'm tweaking a flash website for a freind and he wants to have some videos play from a page. There are 25 files and ideally I want to achieve the 'Lightbox' look so that the browser window dims and the video plays over the top. After looking around I haven't found any easy solutions.What is the best way to achieve this, bearing in mind I shall have all these buttons on a page and want to have the video 'float' on top of the actual site?I'm relatively new to this although a long standing flash user when it comes to animation etc - not great on scripting.
Inspired by Andre michelle, I`m building a tone matrix in AS3.I managed to create the matrix and generate the different sounds. They donīt sound that good, but Iīm getting there One big problem I have is when more than one dot is set to play, it sounds just horrible. I googled a lot and found the additive synthesis method but donīt have a clue how to apply it to as3.anybody out there knows how to play multiple sounds together? any hint?
I have 5 videos that all have separate buttons to play each one individually...however, I cannot figure out how to make the 5 play back to back if you are to click a "Play All" button. I figure this is something that needs to be coded...so I thought I should probably ask here. This is using AS 3 and Flash CS4.
I have 10 to 15 different exe files which I want to play one after another, is there any way to play them. Do I have to make the batch file and play the exe file.
i seem to be posting a lot at the moment but i am trying to get my Flash Skills up to date, hope im not annoying anyone too much. Basically i have a small project where pressing a button will trigger a sound, So when i click 'Button1' it plays the sound assigned to 'Button1', I have done this like the following.
[Code]...
Eventually i am going to have 20 different sounds, i know i need to probably assign each sound to its own individual sound channel. i tried manipulating the for statement to say something like var [i]Channel = new SoundChannel; in the hope that it would assign a number next to the SoundChannel thus making it unique,
So I have a MC character and have him moving with the arrows. Now there are multiple(5) frames inside of this MC. Walk Animation(which is the first frame in the MC), Standing Animation, etc. So when I hit left arrow he walks and the walk animation cycles. BUT!!! When I crouch, etc. It doesn't loop the animation it just sits on a still image (as if I did not have an animation on that frame). What am I doing wrong?The code i'm using after my if statement is gotoAndStop(frame)Within each MC there are more MC's and so on, I don't know if this screws with it.Here is an FLA, the code is partly me but ultimately from disastamaans tutorial(on the kongregate website) for basic platforming. I'm just trying to learn right now.Forgot to add that currently I have a total of five frames.1 Animated-walk2 Animated-stand3 Animated-jump4 Animated-crouch5 Animated-crouch walkThose are my five frames, and 1,2, and 3 work fine, only 4 and 5 won't animate?
