I want the animation (shooting star) to play at random times.
I am trying to have a random movie clip play as soon as my site loads, and when that one is done, I would like it to randomly choose another.I have 6 movie clips, I figure I will have to have the random script on frame 1 of my time line, and then I can just modify it to select another one on the last frame of each movie clip. However, I don't even know how to begin scripting this to happen. I have looked through these forums, and it seems like there are a lot of posts about this, but very few answers. Does anyone know how to go about doing this?I am using AS2.

View 9 RepliesI created a movie clip symbol with a tween animation and created an instance of it on the main stage. The animation is in the movie clip timeline, not on the main timeline. I cannot get the mc to play using mc.play() or mc.gotoAndPlay.
View 7 RepliesI am new to animating in flash and have come up against something I don't understand.I made a small 15 frame animation.I drew each of the 15 frames by hand.The animation will loop. that is if you play frames 1 to 15 and then jump back to 1 it seemlessly transitions back and can begin again.I want to convert these 15 frames into one element that I can add many times to the time line.Is there a way to do this?
I tried converting to a movieclip symbol but it only brought in one frameIf it only brings in one frame, what is the point of it being a movie clip?What is the best practice to make a self contained unit of these 15 frames so that I can reuse them?
When I play my animation in the Flash working file, the animation stops at the end of the timeline, as it should. But when I test the movie, or export it to any movie format, it will play an instance of a movie clip symbol that I used within the animation. There are no extra frames in the timeline beyond what should be considered the last frame. Is there a setting or something I have overlooked that might cause that instance of the symbol to play at the end of the animation, without appearing in the main timeline?
View 3 RepliesI added a button symbol to a movie clip in a Flash 8 project, and the button works. OnPress it redirects to a web site.However, the animation in the movie clip becomes diabled. I get the same effect regardless of where the button is placed, e.g. scene1 timeline, movie clip, etc.
View 8 RepliesI just created a new site that hasnt launched yet. The scene is a city scape with water beneathe. In the water I want to have a fish that bobs up and down slightly on mouseover. I have the movie created
I know I have to make a button and i just copied the initial stage of the movie and converted that into a button.
What Im trying to create is called a tell target.
What code is their to play a single frame containing movie clips once and then play the next frame and stop
View 26 Repliesi have an animated title that i would add some blood to roll across the title (as a flash movie clip) and then stop at a certain point - Forever!
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,myFunction);function myFunction(event:Event) { blood_mc.play(); blood_mc.gotoAndStop(20);}
This is what i have so far but the blood does not play then stop/pause when the blood reaches the bottom point of the title ( like its meant to) just the end frame of the blood on the title is displayed - no movement can this be done.
I placed 6 movie clips exactly where I want them on the first frame of my movie and I want them to play randomly.

View 5 RepliesI 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?
View 1 RepliesIs there some basic AS3 code to have, when the swf loads, a single video play from a collection of videos in an array? And can said code also apply to sound without video?I just found out the tutorial I was using to randomize doesn't work with audio - as it just plays everything at once - you might 'see' one video - but you hear all them. So from what I am reading, I need to us an array (that seems simple enough), but I don't want to play all the clips - I want it to randomly select and play one. Not sure exactly how I set up the video playback area (so the video plays where I want, at the size I want).Also, I have other pages that are just audio - does audio need some sort of player or something for this?
View 6 RepliesI am pretty new to ActionScript 3 and Flash. I don't want my movie clip to play unless the person's mouse curser is on the movie clip for more than a second. If the person just runs their curser over the movie clips really quickly, then it should do nothing. It must be more than a second. How do I code that?

I'm trying to make a short clip = a website introduction - where feathers fall from above the stage eventually covering it completely. I've created movie clip with the animation (motion via motion tweens) - and what I'd like is for multiple instances of the Movie Clip to appear above the stage, then the Movie Clip to play, hence feathers falling randomly.I'd also like to put a time delay on the appearing of each new instance (ideally random) so that when the movie clip plays the falling feathers aren't perfectly synchronised (which they would be were all the instances to appear at the same time).I've tried playing with the scripts suggested in this thread with limited success: showthread.php3?t=259911(Also, I'd ideally like to change the tint on each movie clip (to a limited set of colours) instance to vary the colour of the feathers, but that's maybe a complication too far for the moment!

View 3 RepliesI am trying to make what I thought would be a very simple random picture display. I have five movie clips named myClip1, myClip2, etc. All are on the first frame of the timeline. Each has this as a movie clip action:
Code:
onClipEvent(load){
_alpha = 0;
}
The frame also has an action like this:
Code:
nClipMax = 5;
// nClipMax being the number of movie clips
this["myClip" + Math.ceil(Math.random()*nClipMax)]._alpha = 100;
When I test this the background (an image) displays but nothing else, the movie clips stay transparent. I have tried several variations without any luck.I am mainly an asp and net developer that uses flash periodically so be gentle.
Question: i have to make an animated header for the web site. several seconds it's going on and is stoped with action script command stop(); but i need one elenment inside flash-header continue animating like here: [URL] a rolling logo in upper left corner of header. If somewhere the answer has already been written - it would be nice someone write a link to this source.
View 1 RepliesI have this movie clip that's a solid color with 60% transparency. I have 24 copies of this, all with instance names of light_mc1, light_mc2 and so on. What I'm trying to do is have them transition their colors not only randomly and constantly, but in unison. The transition has to be smooth, it can't just instantly show red in one frame, then green in the next. I have to be able to see it smoothly change to green, or whichever color is randomly selected.

I have 5 different MovieClips in the library, and a main movieclip on stage.
I must load the MCS from the library randonly on the main MC from time to time. How can I do it?
my aim is to get the movie clip (bar shapes) to move up and down randomly over time. this is the actionscript ive done so far. by the way im using flash 8 so i beleive that its actionscript 2.

I press a button and have an object (a movie clip) move onto the stage - that works ok.When that movie clip gets to a certain spot, I want it to stop - that works ok.I want to be able to press the button again and have it leave the stage - that works ok.Then if I press the button again, it will come back on the stage again - that works ok.when it stops on the stage, I want a part of it to animate just once. I've been trying to do this by putting a second movie clip inside of the first, but it won't work.
View 4 RepliesI have a Movie Clip which consists of a text-box with some text in it.I am trying to tween this movie clip so it either moves randomly throughout the animation or have the movie clip bounce off the edges similar to a standard screen saver you might see. While slowly changing it's text through many different font families Is it possible to have a movie clip tween randomly through an animation and is it possible to change the text to many different families in a slow transition.

View 3 RepliesI want a movie clip (let's call it homecontent_MC) with 100 frames play to frame 80 and stop.Then when someone clicks a button on the navigation bar (home, about, services, contact, etc...) homecontent_MC would then begin playing from it's position (frame 80) til it reaches 100, at which point it wouldn't be on screen, and the movie clip that corresponds to the navigation button press (say services_MC...) would start from frame 1 and continue til it stops at it's frame 80...

View 2 RepliesI am currently trying to load a movie clip in the main SWF. Got that done.Then call and replace the first movie clip with another, got that done too.This is for a menu i am making, I am not too great in action script. I am working in AS2.Problem is after I call the second external movie clip into the main SWF, it all stops working.Is there a way I set this up that no matter what it keeps loading and unloading the external movie clips? This is what I have so far.[code]This starts with the "king_menu.swf" already loaded, i have it unload it and load "dqueen_menu.swf" to the call point named "load_king".I am guessing I need to have a universal call point for all my external movies to load and work in a random chain.
View 10 RepliesI created a movie clip which plays ok. But when it ends there is a slight jump, if you will, when it goes back to frame 1 to begin playing again. Does anyone know how to make the transition unnoticeable from the last frame of a movie clip to the first frame of a movie clip?
