I've been working on a flash animation that has been set to 12frames per second, but now my boss has told me it needs to be 25fps - but when i change the frame rate in 'modify>document' the whole thing just speeds up. Is there a way to increase the fps whilst retaining the original speed?
View 1 RepliesI have a movie clip on my scene which has a speed applied to it making it move across the screen. This is duplicated when it reaches the other end of the screen.On my scene I have some action script which is acting as a timer. After a set time I want it to increase the speed of the movie clips, making the game become "harder". I seem to be able to manipulate the alpha of my movie clips but can't seem to trigger the speed increase.If i use a setInterval it seems to trigger the speed increase but it does it each time the movie clip is duplicated (so the delay resets, it does not change once and apply throughout)However, where I am changing the alpha I cannot seem to change the speed.
View 2 RepliesThe Loaded Swf File Inherits the Frame Rate speed of the Main TimeLine,
Is there a way to control the frame rate of the loaded Swf File.
If I have loaded a Swf File to a Movie Clip container, How can I control the speed of Movie_ClipInstance.CurrentFrame .
As part of a preloader I have a 19 frame movieclip of a 3d star rotating created in swift 3D, it rotates above a normal load bar that shows progress. Currently the star is a separate clip from the loadbar and just rotates as the movie loads, how can I tie the two in together so that the rotation speed of the star gets faster as the movie loads. I have an idea how to do this using tweens but because the star is not animated using tweens, swift generates 19 different frames I'm a bit stuck

View 10 RepliesI'm trying to increase the speed of a single movieclip. The frame rate of my movie is 12, and I don't want to increase the frame rate of the entire movie just to speed up one movieclip.
I've seen tutorials all over the web, and all the actionscript controlled speeds of movieclip tutorials are for more interactive animations, such as mouse movements and rollovers.
I'm looking for something that simply plays a movieclip faster on the timeline and I'm sure there is a simple code for this.
I'm working on this "game" and I currently have a ball that increases in speed as you hold down the arrow key. What I am now trying to accomplish is I want the ball to ease to a stop when the user let's go of the keyboard key (onKeyUp). Here's the File. <---Link
Here is my code so far:
var speed = 10;
ball_mc.onEnterFrame = function (){
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
this._x += speed += 1;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)){
[Code] .....
So once you let go of the Keyboard Key I want the ball to slow down to a stop.
I am trying to make a simple game where there are five balls that bounce around the screen and speed up at set intervals. You have to dodge them for as long as possible. Right now I have the game set up so that you dodge for 15 seconds and you win - but I can't delete the balls that are bouncing around, and I don't know how to put in a reset button. I have also tried increasing the variable this.speed inside my interval statements but it doesn't work.
View 3 RepliesI'm creating a thermometer with the mercury animated as donations come in. I haven't touched flash in a long time, so be gentle.
How can I change the code below so the animation is faster without increasing the framerate?
var maxMercuryHeight = 192; // Mercury height at 100%
var currentDonations = 80; // Percentage of donations taken
var currentHeight = (currentDonations / 100) * maxMercuryHeight;

How can I make the animation ease out so it starts fast and slows down at the end?
I'm creating an animation where I want to simulate the increased velocity of particles with increased temperature. I was planning to just gradually have fewer frames per distance travelled on the screen, but I thought I'd check here to see if there's a less tedious way of doing this.
View 1 RepliesI have an animation on the timeline and I would like to increase the speed of the animation. I have tried increasing the fps and when I test it in flash, it works. But then I upload it onto my server online and it is still slow...
Also, I don't want to shorten the number of frames the animation takes as this will result in a edgy animation, whereas I want a smooth fast animation.
I have consecutive graphics being presented. I want them to start out slow then the speed at which they appear should increase steadily and quickly until they are flashing. So I am using this to time the animation:
setInterval(photoFlash,1000);
I guess what I am looking for is a way to do this:
setInterval(photoFlash,1000+100);
Where the interval is increased each time the function is run.
I am currently using a timer to add animated squares to the stage. I would like to make it so that each time a square is added, the timer starts to go faster. This is what I have so far, but it doesn't update in the actual timer.[code]

this is what i'm trying to accomplish; With a click on a movieclip (cannon_mc)a shot is being fired (ball_mc)
The longer mouse is down, the speed of wich the ball is fired with should increase.My question to you is;
What is the most efficient way to accomplish this? With a timer or something like this;

How can I increase the _height property of a window without increase the height of the title and the bar at the top of the window ?
I want only to increase the part of the window where I put textFields and buttons.
I want to add an animated .gif file to my movie. So I created a new symbol and then imported the .gif file to the stage. This created the symbol containing the animated .gif.I dragged the symbol onto the scene where I want it. However, the animation seems to play at a different speed (fps) than normal. So I changed the fps of the symbol (at bottom of Timeline where it says "fps"). But for some reason this changes the fps of the rest of the entire movie.

View 5 RepliesI'm beginner in Flash CS4 and I'd like to know how to increase the number of image per second of my sequence because I want more smooth morphing. The time will not change.Actually, I have 24 image per second and I'd like to put 48. Is there a way to make it automatically without changing all by hand.for automatically : I mean, I just have to change my number of frame somewhere and flash will adjust my sequence and will use now 48 frame for 1s instead of 24 frame for 1s and regenerate morphing I use.

View 3 RepliesI have a MovieClip, "my_mc", that is hidden and shown when you MouseOver a grey block that is on the stage, similar to a tool tip. Inside of this MovieClip is a TextField, "my_textbox", and another MovieClip, "my_box". "my_box" is underneath the textbox and will hold the graphics for the tooltip.
What I am trying to do is add a Sprite to "my_box" and set it's alpha to 50%, or 0.5 AS3. Well, I accomplished doing this, however, when you Mouse Out then Mouse Over again, the alpha increases by 50%, to what seems 75% alpha now, instead of staying at 50%. Do it again and it goes up another 50%, so on and so forth.
I have tried setting the "my_box" alpha, as well as the alpha of the Sprite that is drawn inside, and it still does it. Also another piece of info, when I trace the alpha, I get 0.5, even though it appears to be solid red on screen, after a few MouseOver/MouseOuts. The source files are attached, but for those who don't want to download, here is the AS3 code:

I was at an AS3 course recently and the instructor mentioned a book that had something to do with AS3 game examples. Has anyone seen something like this and liked it? The problem is I am fairly new to AS3 and it is coming slower than I had hoped. I am the only person in my office who deals with Flash and I also have other responsibilities. So, I am looking for ways to increase my proficiency.
