I have a specific request or a general pondering really.I know you can create a sine wave type thing with as, could you then perhaps create movie clips, letter by letter that would move along and up and down on this sine wave?could you then, instead of setting the size and scale of the sine wave have it react to the input levels of a mic.i've been hunting for something that will help for a while and have drawn a blank

With Keith Peter's "Actionscript 3.0 Animation" book it's dead easy to make one that oscillates smoothly between two fixed values but I need one that varies it's oscillation randomly (within reason of course). Imagine the teeth of a saw, up-down-up-down-up-down, very dull. What I want is more like a range of mountains, the same smooth change in height but less regular.
View 8 RepliesSo what I'm looking to do now is to actually get that movie clip - in this case an arrow -to rotate around another object - a ship - at a radius of 150 pixels and facing the mouse.This basically means to get the arrow to follow where the mouse goes around the ship - limited by the 150 pixel radius circle it can follow.p.s. This is the code so far:
ActionScript Code:
theArrow.x = theShip.x
theArrow.y = theShip.y

How to create transverse waves using flash ActionScript3?
View 1 RepliesI'm working a project for school in which I'm using the sound spectrum. Only problem is, I only know Action Script 2, which does not use it. I'm currently using this code to create sound waves and it works fine.
var url:String = "[URL]";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
var s:Sound = new Sound();
s.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
s.load(request);
var song:SoundChannel = s.play();

How to turn the sound into numbers (which are then usually used to draw waves).
I'm trying to create some letter effects like waves, cascades, ripple etc.I saw these effects years ago in the old Flash MX/AS1 but I need to create them in AS2.

I have a logo that I made in Fireworks, and it looks decent, but I was wondering if anyone could mimic it with movement. For example, if someone could use actionscript to make it "wiggle" or wave like a flag in the wind, that would be awesome.
Notice how the blue line itself stays at about the same thickness (it barely starts getting thicker), but the shading around it thickens as it goes more and more to the right.
Here's the image (ignore the text):
I'm generating a sine wave and playing it as a sound. But When I call SoundMixer.StopAll() it's causing a click when sounds stops. I think its because it's cutting the sound off in the middle of the wave, I was wondering of a way to make the sine wave slowly ripple out before i stop it. Is there already functions to do this in Action Script 3 or is my sine wave function i need to modify here is my code for the wave.
function sineWave(event:SampleDataEvent):void { var sample:Number for (var i:int=0; i<8192; i++) { sample = Math.sin((i+event.position) * ((2 * Math.PI)/44100) * freq); // freq is just any frequency event.data.writeFloat(sample * .15); event.data.writeFloat(sample * .15); } }
I am trying to create a similar effect to what is used in CityVille for dropping coins and experience icons, they do a custom move animation and it first moves a little bit up and then down. It looks like it is following a spline or a sine function.
View 2 RepliesThere are a couple of problems i'm having with this - the first is how to work out how to find where the tip of each sine curve is (ie the frequency) and the second is to work out how to rotate each object so that it slides sideways along the sine wave(note file is 800 x 600)here's my code: CarouselTest.as:
package
{
import com.greensock.easing.Sine;

As you can tell from the title I am not very good at math ( sigh ).
Is there a way I can create a sine wave with any given angle between 2 points ?
I am sooooooooo lost. I need help in making a movie clip go in a wave motion with only action script. basically I am trying to make a game and I am so lost on how to make the enemy come in and fly in a wave motion from the left to the right in an up and down motion. I thought it would be easy but I must be using the wrong code since my enemy plane is just fly from left to right and not going up and down.
View 8 Replieshow draw sine and other functions using the drawing api ? so far all my efforts have yielded amazing random designs but not the desired functions.
View 5 RepliesI want to be able to take a general sine wave y=Math.sin(x) and rotate it around some other angle, so instead of going strictly left-to-right, I'd like to go from, say, the top left corner toward the "center," or from the bottom right to the center, or any other arbitrary angle. Like this: I want to be able to use that wave as a "path" for enemies in a game, but I cannot seem to wrap my head around it. I've tried matrix transformations, but I was missing something there, too, because the origin was wrong.

View 8 RepliesBasically I need to have text from a dynamic/input textfield to appear in a wavy line pattern automatically. Now I'm pretty sure it can be done fairly easily with the right knowledge but I unfortunately lack that knowledge.
The idea I had was that a string is broken into individual letters and each is placed along a sine curve of a set length/width - the string/characters are repeated if necessary in order that the full width of the curve is covered. Also note that the text need not be rotated to match the lines, only _x and _y values need to be adjusted.
I have to produce a design with dynamic text similar to this (my ascii art skills are crap so please imaging that these are wavy lines rather than zig zags):
/////////////////
/////////////////
/////////////////
/////////////////
/////////////////
I have nothing to offer apart from the satisfaction of producing a wavy text pattern and from knowing that you have saved me from a breakdown.
I'm trying to create a loop which generates a single series of sine results ranging from 0 to 1 based on 100 loops ( ie 0 ,0.011 ,0.1111........up to 1 in a single run)The results I want start at 0 and increment in a series up to 1 and then stop. I suppose this would be one half of a sine wave I have tried the following but it goes from 0 to 1 ,1 to 0 , 0 to 1 etc whereas I want a single straight run of 100 values from 0 to 1
I tried :
for(var i:Number=0;i<=100;i++){
trace((0.5*Math.sin(i)) + 0.5);
}
This does not work.
i want to create a sine wave and its speed will change depends on change in freequency and wavelength . and stop the wave movement when we click stop button.[code]
View 0 RepliesI have a one-frame .fla with script on one layer and a movie clip on another. The movie clip has an instance name of "titleBar," which moves from left to right using dynamic tweening.The tween code moves it from an X position of 200 to a X position of 820.Then I have a function called "xChange," which waits for titleBar's X value to be 820. Once it does, I'd eventually want to load an external swf but I'm just running a trace for now.Again, Here's the code.
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;

I've generated sample xml file:[code]This works ok. What the code is doing - its assigning each node of the xml file to one of the boxes in the fla file.My question is if we can assign to each of the node one box dynamicly? So bassicaly if i will have 5 nodes the code will -draw???- a box and putted the name of the node in the box.And so on, for each of the nodes? And if i will have 6 nodes, then it will draw 6 boxes and so on..
View 6 RepliesI know how to do stuff in flash. Ok, so here's what I want to know..on this guessing game, I want the person to enter in their 1 - 3 digit guess, the the number they need to guess is 577 (later I want to make this random whenever they go to play it). If they guess under 577, I have a box to say their guess is too low. If they guess over 577, it says their guess is too high. However, I am not sure how to make it so that what they put in the text box, it takes it as the new variable. I know this may sound confusing, but here is the .fla file.URL...
