I have 10 images in 10 frames ( 1 image per frame ). So I'm trying to make the frame to go to the next one when the mouse is moved to the right, and make the frame to go to the prev one when the mouse is moved to the left.

View 5 RepliesI am making a project and using XML to bring in the data externally. However i have ran into a little snag. My code to query the XML works, but if i don't start with the first button, the rest of the buttons dont work.
If i click on the first button which takes you to a new frame and loads in the XML data into a text area the rest of the buttons will work and go the frame they are supposed to and work as intended.
However if i do not click on the first button first, the button will take you to the frame that it is supposed to take you to but the XML does not load.
The buttons are on a grid and are supposed to be clicked in any order and bring open the right information, which is why this is a problem.
here is the code that is on the second frame. All the other frames look just like this one but with the names changed to fit the names of the buttons.

I'd like to control a mc movement on_x direction (or _y) when the mouse mouves horizontaly (or verticaly). So when I mouve the mouse to the right the mc mouves to the lefht and it mouves to the right when the mouse moves to the lefht. It's for a window effect.

View 2 RepliesI have my flash on multiple scenes, and would like to play an animation when clicking on the navigation button before switching to a different scene.
I'm halfway to accomplishing this.
Here is what i used
Code:
_root.gotoAndPlay("changepage1");
_root.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(this._currentframe=="changepage2"){

The above code is on a blank keyframe. Changepage1 is the start of the animation and Changepage2 is the end of the animation.
Upon clicking the navigation button it plays the above scenes.
However it doesn't change scenes to scene "Home2".

this[newroto].rotographic.gotoAndStop(random(this[newroto].rotographic._totalframes)+1); <-- this line gets the images randomly.. and i wanted it to show all images... like the image on frame 1 the image on frame 2 on frame 3.. this 7 (the var set on the beguining..)
So I understand that, to get frame rate independent movement I have to multiply the base speed by (1000/delta). It works on values that represent speed, but when I try this with an acceleration variable, e.g. gravity, it won't work, it isn't even frame rate independent. Is there a different formula for acceleration variables, or am I forgetting something else?

I'm trying to create the effect on the dreamers site [URL] during the main intro where all the kids are sitting in the theatre and the one kid is smoking. Anyone know how to create this effect that has different images move at varying speeds based on the mouse location to show depth.

I was messing around and testing some code for a timer. I found an example when I was surfing the net and decided to use the example I found.

Also the code doesn't give any errors either

I have a main movie (main.swf) that has an empty movieclip that calls for an external swf that we'll call imageclip1.swf. Now, I have a preloader set up in the imageclip1.swf, however, it doesn't want to move to the second frame after it's loaded when it's loaded into the main.swf. It works fine when I test it by itself. The actionscript (AS2) in the first frame imageclip1.swf:

What ends up happening is that it moves to frame 2 in main.swf. So I don't know what the problem is. I've tried every target scheme I could think of (_root, level0, this).

I just started using AS3 and I wanted to make a simple script. Basically what I have is a speech bubble with text in it, and every time the player clicks on the screen, the bubble will move horizontally onto the screen. The problem is that after the 4th or 5th time clicking, the bubble will stop entering from the right, but the text will still change. Here is my script so far:

What I noticed was that as the clicks increased, the speech bubble's x position was shifted to the left more and more each time. I don't get it, since I set the x position to 800 each time the function is run.
I'm trying to make a game where enemies are spawned at the left side of the screen and gradually move to the right, but the problem I'm having is that when they spawn rather than moving 20 pixels each frame, it calculates the final destination like it's a for loop. This is the code I have

I have a problem and I've looked everywhere for a solution but haven't found one yet. I'm trying to move the playhead to a specific frame inside a movieclip but can't find any code that will allow this to happen.
In more detail: I have 5 movieclips that act as my main pages on my main timeline. from inside let's say, from the 5th movieclip on frame 100 i want to move out of this clip and into the 3rd movieclip BUT NOT to go to frame 1 but move to frame 50 of the 3rd movieclip. I've tried everything but no matter what happens the first frame is always displayed, and i don't want that.
Let's start off by saying that I am the greenest of green newcomers to the world of Flash and Actionscript. I have created several animations based off of the great camera movement tutorial found here: [URL]Everything works great when I have my actionscript code in a single frame environment. However, I am currently trying to figure out how to create a simple menu/welcome screen that will allow the user to choose which animation to play before returning to the menu and choosing another. When I move my code to frame 2 (as I am trying to create my menu on frame 1), my animation does not work correctly. As I am so new to this, I'm afraid there are very basic concepts I do not understand and this is preventing me from effectively researching and troubleshooting this problem on my own.
Using the Kirupa racing example tutorial files, if I simply move the actionscript to frame 2 I see a continuous loop which seems to include the initial placement of the scene's components, but it doesn't stay in the frame to allow for any camera movement or to continue with the animation. This makes sense to me, as it is continuously looping between frames 1 and 2. When I attempt write this code on Frame 1: gotoAndPlay(2);, I simple see static images of the scene's elements (the tire and the car) and no animation. I had expected it to play as normally as it does when the actionscript is located on Frame 1. What basic concepts am I missing here and does anybody have any advice on how I should proceed?
