how to create a swimming fish?I have no idea how to make direction changes so that the fish's head is always point to the correct direction.I can only make the fish swim to a target position (x,y) with a speed using math.random(), however, the whole action looks odd.[code]
View 7 Replieswhat wrong with the functin 'stopFish' Without this function the fish in the tank swims but when I add it, it doesnt anymore. I just want the fish to stop swimming after I clicked it and start swimming after another click.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make about a minute long animation of two koi fish.
1. Fish slowly swim in frame
2. Fish swim in circle a couple times
3. 4 food pellets drop into water
4. Fish eat them one at a time
5. Fish slowly swim out of frame
I've finished step 2, but now I want to go back and do step 1. I've attatched a picture of my koi and I was wondering if there was any way I could flip the image of them and tween them to make it look like the fish were moving their bodies all in flash.
I have an animated fish crossing the screen. I made that using the animated fish (movieclip1) following a path on a guide layer. All these are into another movieclip (2). I want in mouse hover condition to accelerate the tween. In other words I want the user to point the fish with the mouse (mouse hover) and then the fish tries to escape (tween acceleration). How can I accelerate the tween?Keep in mind that in fish movieclip(1) I have more than one Tweens. So the code must be for selected tween (named by frame label). Another thing is that acceleration mustn't be directly from 0 to 1. There must be an ease on the start and on the end of acceleration so it can be more realistic. I am not related on programming so I would like a complete answer (not just directions)

I wanted to make a flash game,it's about some fish swiming in a tank.All the fishes swim randomly,i don't need any rotation,just left and right direction will be fine with me.But the result is their actions are really odd. how to make them swim just like real fishes?And there's also another problem.When the number of fishes increased to 50 or more,the framerate will drop rapidly.
Now I use Tweenlite to control the swiming action ,and it works very well.But the framerate still drops if i add more than 40 or 50 fishes to the tank.I think there must be a better way to do this.
Here's my code
public function onEnterFrame(event:Event):void{
var time:Number = Math.sqrt(Math.pow(xOffset,2)+Math.pow(yOffset,2))/speed;
TweenLite.to(this,time,{x:x+xOffset ,y:y+yOffset*0.5 ,ease:Quad.easeOut,onComplete:moveComplete});
}*/
xOffset and yOffset in the code are random numbers

this fish is inside the aquarium, so how can i make the fish detect the width of the aquarium so it won't go outside of the aquarium.
what i'm trying to do is to change the color of the body of my fish.png to a colorpicker selectedColor.but then i'm encountering problem with the floodfill method...Whenever I pick a color, it would change the body to transparent.and there seems to be little information, hence my posting here.. fishfishfish is the linkage of fish.png in library.

I programmed a simple (or so I thought!) website entirely in flash, using a looping movie for the background. I have the entire website programmed in one scene, with actionscript telling the movie-clip-button avigation to "gotoAndPlay" the name of each section. I tested the entire time I was programming, and everything was looking great. However... when I uploaded the file and test it live, my movie clip background has gone haywire! When I navigate now between the sections, the movie clip speeds up. I have done some troubleshooting, but to no avail.
[Code]...
I am trying to make the movieClip named "fish" go to a randomly generated spot. I tried using the tutorial, but I didn't understand the math, so I tried it with my own code. I'm not as much interested in getting this to work as I am knowing why it doesn't work.
PHP Code:
fish.onLoad = function() {
generatePoint();
}
fish.onEnterFrame = function() {

I'm trying to create a flash program that uses it's own code to send and create images. Each square has a colour and that colour gets added into the array. A black, then grey, then white is:
filecode = ["Bl", "Gr", "Wh"];
That works fine, but when I try to paste it into an Input text box it will only fill in the first part of the array.
filecode = ["Bl,Gr,Wh"];
So the program has NO idea what I want.The only ways I can think of fixing this is by putting in 402 text boxes to suit every box...But every one of them needs a Variable Name.Or by sending the information straight into the array. But this way you are just looking at what you just drew, and that is not at ALL practical.
I have a demo file,like follows: package{import flash.display.Sprite; public class Demo extends Sprite; ....}Then I compile itc:>mxmlc Demo.as Then I got a Demo.swf file,Now I want to package it into swc file,such as Demo.swc,so I use following commands:c:>compc Demo.swf -output Demo.swcLoading configure file "C:sdkframeworksflex-config.xml"Error:Can't find class Demo:swf.I have Demo.swf in this directory,why raise above error? How to create swc with command line?

I have designed a logo for a client and came up with an idea where part of it would move so i used Photoshop to create the image and tried to creat a moving Gif but the quality was drastically lost and the image started doing wierd things where the glow was,
so i have been looking for a solution in flash to do the same thing but keep the picture quality, i have seen videos that use the bone tool but i cant seem to get it to work and as i am still learning i do not have much knowledge of flash.
also it has to start with a PNG as the image doesn't have a background and jpeg would make the background white,
what i want to do is make the tip of the tail swing backwards and forwards under the writing

View 3 RepliesI have been working on a full flash website for a while, and been testing it using the Ctrl + Enter command to export it to swf. Today I was working on the file making some text modifications, but when I tried to test the website, nothing happens. It shows the progress window, but after a while nothing happens, It wont show the swf test file, and It doesn't create the swf file in any way. I tried the other commands: file-publish, file-export to swf with no success. I'm using Flash CS4 professional (10.0.2) on Windows Vista Home Premium 32Bit. Other .fla files export swf with no problem, and the Swf preview (Ctrl + Enter) works fine. It's only in this file.

View 1 RepliesI'm new to Flash and I need to learn how to do a slideshow with exactly the same features as can be found in this link: [URL]. Just like at the link above, it needs to play through the slides automatically once the page is loaded, each slide needs to link to a specific URL, and I need controls similar to the boxes at the bottom so the viewer can click on any specific slide they wish to view (I'd like to have numbers in the boxes though). The transitions don't have to slide across like this. If a fade is easier, that would be fine.
Actually, I thought I'd be able to do this fairly easily with Flash Catalyst, so I updated to Adobe CS5 Design Premium. I found that Flash Catalyst can be used to create a slide show like this, but unfortunately it won't play automatically when the page loads and the viewer has to manually click through the slides, which is not what I need. I could be wrong, but from what I've read, I need Flash Builder to add code so the slide show will play automatically if I create it in Flash Catalyst.
I want to create a slideshow of 5 images, with black fade effect in between. So from black to image to black to the next image and so on. Then it stops on the last image. I dont want any buttons or any interactions.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to create a personal portfolio website using Flash CS4. Understand that there are a number of ways to create web pages using Flash. One way is to create separate swf files for the web pages and load them when the web page is requested. Another way is to put the pages in separate frames in the same swf file or to use scenes and use gotoAndPlay(). Another possible way is to create separate movie clips for the web pages.
