I want to make a 3D Racing game, becuase i only see crappy overhead one's that are tooo simple to make. so I was wondering the best approach on how to do this. i was thinking of make the race track, as a animation then adding events so when arrow key is moved play event act but then how would the bike react at the same time?
View 15 RepliesI am trying to make a racing game with an overhead view looking down. There will be a separate mc for the ground and another separate mc for the players car. How can I do this? O ya and just in case i am thinking the way I did: I tried to "rotate" the ground but when the car moves down the ground it moves away from the registration point, so therefore it rotates non relative to the car i want to make this game in as3.

View 2 RepliesI want to develop a car racing game using flash and actionscript3.
View 1 RepliesI'm building a top-view racing game and I'm using the uch published code to calculate my x and y speed:
speedx = Math.sin(rotation1*(Math.PI/180))*speed*-1;
speedy = Math.cos(rotation1*(Math.PI/180))*speed;
My question is, how can I modify this code to give the car more of a rally-style movement whereas it will go sideways as I go around corners?
How can I modify 2d racing game to seem like isometry? Flash + ActionScript3
ScreeShot:: The game is totally in 2d. Car moves like it should and while it drives the ground everything is fine.I've added a grey ramp. Now the car should move like the arrows are showing, creating illusion of a 3d (isometry).
Ramp is divided in 3 sectors
-first,sector to the right (where the car is currently situated);
-second,sector to the left;
-third, sector on top;
Plus I need the car,to jump out from the ramp when the speed is high. I reffer to old scholl game Rock'n'Roll Racing (Blizzard's game for Sega)So the questions are
1) How should I change car's angle and velocities(velocityX and velocityY) when driving on the ramp ?
2) How can I initiate jumping out of the ramp? For example like in Rock'n'Roll racing? or how Blizzards essentially did it?

View 1 Repliesso how would I go about making a DVD game like player 1 vs. player 2 or just player 1 solo in action script 3.0? i know 2.0 well enough and i know a little 3.0 but i am not an expert i am not looking for a complicated game just something simplistic with one question after another I just don't know how to make the options like a right answer a wrong answer and how that would effect scores. or how would i go about if player one got the question right it would go to the next question and if they got it wrong replay the question for player 2 and the points would reflect appropriately also how would i make a time limit for each question? I know you probably wont be able to answer all question I just wanted to convey what I am trying to do.
View 1 RepliesI'm using Flash CS5 to make an iPod app/game. The provided layout makes the default setup 320x480, which is the standard way to hold your iPod VERTICALLY. I want to flip these dimensions to hold the iPod on it's side during gameplay.
So here's my question: If I just flip the document...to (480x320) will the iPod know how to manage the game from that point on? Or do I need to draw everything horizontally and animate that way too? I tried to do just that, but when I test the scene, it only wants to flip that first frame, so everything flops off screen and it ruins the animation. So how do I develop a HORIZONTAL iPod app/game?

View 3 Replieswonered if someone could help me wih this one. Currently making a facebook game all in flash, it uses multiple swfs to make up the game and its elements for optimisation.
My question really is down to flash cache issue so we can make updates to various swfs that are going to be, site wide for users so the game doesnt break. Currently some users get older versions which breaks things if other swfs have chnaged how they communicate as an example.
I am aware of adding a query string onto the end to force to get the latest version.....however doesnt this make the use of a cache redudant as its being simply overriden? Would jsut like it to work as it should:) If theres a new version of a swf use it..if not use current one.

View 1 RepliesI am developing a ipad game using flash CS5. When I run it in flash or web browser, it run quite smoothly but when I published it into ipa file and run it on my own ipad, it became very very slow. Since my game has many stages and characters, the amount of symbols may up to more than 50. That makes the flash file more than 100mb (but the ipa is only 11mb) All of the symbols are exported in frame 1.
1)if I used preloader and exports the symbols in frame 2, will my game run more smoothly? is one preloader when the game is loaded enough? or it is need for every game scenes?
2)Is there any other technique that a big game developed in Flash has to follow in order can be run in low configurations devices?
3)Why many other big game can run so smoothly although it contains a lot more characters and background than mine?
