I currently have an animaion I'm creating in Flash CS4. There are 3 nested movieclips on the main timeline (all on one layer) each in there own frame (1,2,3) and they are also labelled ("strategy", "videos", and "messages") I want the animation to play continously without any interaction from the user i.e clicking buttons e.t.c I'm struggling to link the three movieclips together using ACS3 i.e once MovieClip one has played it will go back to the main timeline and play the second MovieClip on frame 2 and so on. From looking at various forums I thought the gotoAndPlay function may work, would I also need to specify that it is going back to the "root" timeline?
im quite new to flash, and im just about to create an animation which will rotate continuously but my problem is that each time it ends its loop it pauses for a bit then loops again,
I am trying to make simple continuous animation on y axis.
The problem is that the animation is not smooth!!! It has jumps and hiccups. It is hard to see in the beginning, but once you see it, you can't get rid of it.
Here is an example:

This particular code is pretty simple:
import flash.events.Event; addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveRoad); var deltaY:Number = 0; function moveRoad(event:Event):void
Good to see Flash Kit forum lasting a long time. It's been some time since I was last here. Just upgraded to CS5.5 from Flash 8 and having difficulty migrating a counter to ASC3. Managed to rebuild my other time line controller buttons. The counter is ASC1 and inside a movie clip Total Timeï In the clip are 2 dynamic/variables text boxes. min0 and sec0ï They output minutes and seconds as 2 figures. 00 : 00. With a colon graphic in-between. It takes the old _root._totalframes count then produces the times.
I want to have two "play" and two "stop" buttons to control 2 different mp3 files within the same frame(page). One Play and one stop per mp3 file.
I use the code underneath that works just fine with one sound. But, how do I apply action script 3 to control the "play" and " stop" of the second Mp3 file. I tried creating new buttons with action script 3 in a new Movie clip but, I get a bunch of errors
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(Pounding.mp3; var sound:Sound = new Sound(); var controller:SoundChannel; function soundLoaded(event:Event):void { controller = sound.play();
I have a bunch of scenes, and I have a continuous song that plays over them. I'll simplify below to better specify my intentions.
Game Menus
Scene 1: Music placed on timeline, plays throughout the next 3 scenes (menus) Scene 2: Music uninterrupted and continuos from Scene 1 (desired effect). Scene 3: Music uninterrupted and continuos from Scene 1 (desired effect).
Game
Scene 4: Completely new music for this scene. The music from the previous Scenes 1-3 (or Scene 1's music) still plays [until it is finished]. Scene 4's music is overlapped with it. This is not a desired effect. I'd like Scene 1 music to silence and Scene 4's music to play.
Things I've tried: 1. Thought maybe I'd make Scene 1's music "stream" but when I go to Scene 2 or 3, the music is off.
2. Thought maybe on Scene 4 I could do something to tell the music from Scene 1 to silence
I have an image sequence on my timeline in Flash.I also have two buttons: forwards-button and backwards-button.I would like the timeline to play constantly forward, when the mouse is held over the forwards button.And I would like the timeline to play constantly backwards when the mouse is held over the backwards button.My attempts so far have failed: I can get the button to work only for one step at a time (and then I need to bring the mouse on and off the button again for it to move to the next frame).I need to have the sequence play forwards/ backwards the whole time that the mouse is over the button.
and i need the C# code that is written in the Ap.Net page to extract the XML data (SQL statements) and execute the SQL statements on SQLserver2005 and return the result to the actionscript3
i have succesfully managed to encode / create an .FLV file which now plays back in my .swf file. The picture and sound are great when streaming off the web!
how do i command the file to play back in a continous loop? at present it plays and then rewinds back to the begining.
i have investigated some of the .FLV parameters but can't seem to find the control / command i'm looking for.
How I can create continuous scrolling (on mouse over ) for limited images (like 10 ) If I mouse over , in left it keeps scrolling images and even keep scrolling when 10 images completed by adding first image to the right
If I mouse over , in right it keeps scrolling images and even keep scrolling when 10 images completed by adding first image to the left[URL]..
I'm trying to get a .swf (a game, with three total .swf files: main, title, game) onto my site and am having a problem. I understand how to actually do it and make it run (publish as HTML, copy/paste code in Dreamweaver, etc..), but my problem is having multiples .swf files and them not loading. When I embed code for one of the files, the page will play that .swf file and won't load the next .swf file (Main just contains a loader that loads title, Title will load the game .swf when prompted, Game will run). If I just 2x click the .swf files in my folder it will work, as will an .exe, but can I make it so each .swf file will play in HTML?
ok lets say you create a button that when held down play an animation of 20 frames if realsed it goes to frame one and stops if held down it plays out this animation. for the topic lets say you have a fire animation and you want the fire to apear and if the user hold its down the animation reaches the end of the time line and loops back and plays the last 5 frames of the animation and as soon as it is let go it goes to and stops at frame one. Well i know how to make a button that when held down plays out an animation. And i know how to say when released goes to and stops at frame one. What i dont know how to do is to loop the fire at the last 5 or 6 frames so the user can hold it down all day long and play out that animation.
I have a certain set of motion twains that I've successfuly completed, they constantly loop right now (default), and is saved in the SWF file.I'd like to take that finished looping animation, and insert it within another animation (a) that can be played with a play button, and stopped/resetted with a stop button.How do I insert the completed looping animation into the main animation? And is there something special I have to do in the actionscript of the start and stop buttons so that the "inner" looping animation will start and stop with the "outer" main animation?
On a horizontal bar, text scrolls from left to right, continuously. The text is a fixed string of city names, and I've made it so that it loops nicely. This horizontal bar with scrolling text is part of a vertical animation, scrolling the bar in and out of view. The vertical tween starts after two seconds. When the vertical tween starts, the horizontal animation has started as well. At the beginning and end of the vertical tween, the horizontal tween starts over. I want it to continu.
I need to do a good animation for school to pass my subject and I have done several animations. I thought maybe I do an animation with different choices. Basically you have the "Home" Screen and then you chose one and an animation is been played. Then when I press another button, a different animations is being played.
I have a movieclip that shows an animation onRollOver and an animation on RollOut but onRelease the animation enlarge itselfs but now when I'll roll out when the animation isn't open (so i didn't release) the animation plays the animation for the minimizing of the animation. Here's my code (I know its a bit amateuristic but I'm not a programmer )
Trying to create a DVD from a swf animation. The DVD needs to be able to work on any standard TV connected (non pc) DVD player. I need to export to a video format (.AVI or .MOV) the next bit is what do I need to do to make this file play automatically when the DVD is loaded? Something like you do for CD-ROM an autorun.inf? My animation is 646 px X 346 what is the resolution of a standard LCD tv? Will I need to redesign the animation with more pixels to get it to be optimised on the TV?
No doubt its been asked repeatedly ... how to make animation move to the beat of a sound track.I've been googling for a while here and getting piles of hits but many are not really on topic, then figuring out tighter search strings is a bit hard too since sound and animation has so many possible topics. Looks like it might literally take days to zero in on something.
Can anyone here direct me to information that tells how to make an animation move to the beat of a sound track using Flash? Its fairly easy in Afer Effects so I assumed it would be something I could do in Flash Pro too. But not really getting how it might be done.
I have created a simple animation with two kids moving along with a mule pulling a plow.. all are just still pics but I have a 3wk old Grand daughter on the mule and 1 yr old Great grand son guiding the plow. All figures are bouncing along on with primitive walk step, on 8fr keyframes. Very primitive, but since the kids are my grand and great grand kids it looks pretty cool to my family.
I'm using some nice old hillbilly music of Bill Monroe's (Fiddle, banjo etc) semi-bluegrass sound. But the beat of the music is enough different than the motion of the animation, its a bit distracting.
I thought to just change the spacing of the keyframes by trial and error until its at least close.
But guessing there is a more exact and easier way. In Affter effects its fairly easy to do by ear by tapping out the beat by hand, making markers as you go just by tapping the key in time to the music. It works surprisingly well even for a beat challenged oldster. But enough about After effects... I'm trying to learn Flash. So any advice or a URL?
Well I'm making an animation of the little mermaid for school. Right now I'm at the scene where the mermaid 1st sees the prince. and I want to zoom in on the prince. How can I change the direction of the camera, with it effecting the whole animation?
I have a Flash movie which is synched to an MP3 file by adding keyframes at the appropriate points to trigger actions.
In the *.fla file, and in an exported *.swf or *.exe Projector file the synching is retained perfectly. However, when I include the *.swf in an html file, the synching is lost. It would appear that either the MP3 file is playing at the right speed and the movie is lagging behind, or the movie is at the right speed and the MP3 is playing faster than it should.
I have matched the Audio Output stream to the MP3 file in the Publish Settings dialogue (both now 128kbps), but the drifting still occurs in an html page.
I am using Flash 8.0 on a PC running Windows XP Pro SP3. I have a quad-core Intel Xeon, and 4meg of RAM.
I'm having problem with playing a *.swf file in my animation. The *.swf file actually contains a video clip of people passing a card to one another. On the main timeline there are 3 nested movieclips, the movieclip on the second frame contains the *.swf file, and using Im using this code to load the SWF file:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); addChild(myLoader); var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("iwill_cards_video.swf"); myLoader.load(url); MovieClip(root).nextFrame()
The first movieclip plays fine, but then the next two movieclips play at the same time over one another. I would like for the first movieclip to play, then the second movieclip containing the SWF file, followed by the final movieclip. I have a "stop" on each of the 3 frames on the main timeline but it doesnt seem to work?
i really want to know how to add link to your animation . well when i passe the mouse over my animation it stops and when i leave it the animation continue... but what i want when the mouse over the animation i want to click on the animation and to bring me to a link.
I'm trying to resize an animation I have larger, it has 12 layers, and 20 frames or so on each layer. I'm using edit multiple frames and selecting them all, and it is working to resize them, but randomly it will delete one of my objects for a few of the frames. When I scrub through the timeline after the resize, something is always missing, but it's always a random object and only for a few frames
I used one of the template's for a pre-loader which pre-loads 3 SWF's but opens the last one.The last one plays an animation sequence.. now..After the Animation (to stop if from repeating) I place a second KeyFrame stop() but after that I want it to show the 2nd swf pre-loaded.
I've made a Japanese image in Photoshop and it was going to be just a stand stil image, but since I've added a Hue/Satuaration layer and think it looks pretty damn awesome when I slide through the bar from left to right I want to make it into an animation or GIF.I notice you can make the image or PSD layers a graphic or movie clip and change it in the Advanced options for colour effects, but this isn't like a hue/ saturation edit.Is there a way in Flash that I can add a Hue/ Saturation layer to ALL layers or at least, that affects all layers? I've got a Hue/ Saturation layer in PS and saved that way but it doesn't show when in Flash, so is there a way to add this?
I downloaded Creative Suite 5.0 Web Premium so I could built be an banner animation for my web site. There are three programs included in the suite, Flash Builder, Flash Catalyst and Flash Professional. Which one do I use to built and animation or do I need to use them all ?
