Randomly Dynamically Load Images Into 4 Movie Clips

Jul 29, 2009

I am designing a website and have for locations I would like to load a random image from the same folder. Goals we'd like to accomplish with this:

1. We want images to load randomly from same folder
2. We don't want any duplicate images on the page at any one time
3. We have different size movie clips they are loading into.

Is there a way to accomplish this? What script do I use to resize the .jpg to fit whatever movieclip it's loading into and how to I tell it not to load an image that is already loaded in another movieclip?

Actionscript 2.0 :: Creating A Gallery Of Images/sound Clips Which Load Dynamically?

Jan 18, 2009

So I've been working on a Flash-based web portfolio for my sound design work, and I'm creating a gallery of images/sound clips which load dynamically (that way I don't need to recompress the swf file every time I add/remove a production). I'm having trouble with checking to see if files exist; for example, I want to check if a sound file exists, and if it does, set the alpha property of a symbol to 100%, and if it doesn't, set the alpha property of that symbol to 25%.

The code I'm using works fine when I test the file locally, but as soon as I upload the file and test it, the movie responds as if a file exists even when it doesn't, and I can't figure out why.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Adding JPG Images As Buttons Or Movie Clips?

Aug 27, 2008

Using an XML file, I am pulling a series of JPG images from my hard drive onto the stage. Each of these images will need to have different mouse events placed on them that will take the user to another part of the movie, or perhaps to a different scene.

The attached code successfully pulls the images to the stage -- as JPG images -- and spaces them. What i need to do is make each of them a
button or movie clip, each with a specific action (information which can be gleaned from the XML).

Eventually, I'll need to show images from this XML file based on user-selected criteria via some check boxes. And I'll also need to build some kind of "show next 9 images" and "show previous 9 images" functionality.

Dynamically Loading Images From A JSON Feed Into Individual Movie Clips

May 22, 2009

I'm dynamically loading images from a JSON feed into individual movie clips and then adding the clips to the stage(both by addChild)--basically creating thumb tiles. I've added a click handler to do something when the MC is clicked. WHAT'S MY PROBLEM: The problem I have is that the MC is clickable, but the content is not. For instance, the clip has a white box in it, and the loaded image is made slightly smaller and centered to give a white border around the pic. An empty clip loaded to the stage works fine, and the white border around the image is clickable, but the image is not.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Load Multiple Images To A Movie Clip On The Stage?

Oct 25, 2006

I'm trying to dynamically load multiple images to a Movie Clip on the stage. Where I am having trouble, is when I position different sized images one under another.

What I have done is, assign a variable for the position for the _y of the next image. eg. var spacing:Number = 0;

Since I'm loading the images from a XML file, I've included the height for each image aswell. This is where I am having trouble

eg. spacing += myxml.childNodes[i].childNodes; OR
spacing = spacing + myxml.childNodes[i].childNodes;
trace(spacing);

Say for example, the image I am loading is 400px high, 'spacing' then appears to be 0400 and not 400. After I load the second image, which is 500px high, spacing appears to be 0400500 and not 900.

Randomly Swapping Movie Clips

Feb 2, 2010

I'm trying to figure out how to have a movie clip randomly replaced every time the page is refreshed. I have 4 clips that I want to have appear in the overall movie, but swapped in and out randomly. Also, I want these clips to play once, then stop, but continue to show the last frame of the clip for the remainder of the time that the main movie is playing. I must be placing the stop() in the wrong place or something. I tried placing one inside the original movie clip before I published it, it works on it's own, but not when I place it in the timeline of the other movie. No matter where I put that stop command, it doesn't seem to work.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Randomly Displaying Movie Clips?

Jan 11, 2012

how to randomly display movie clips on my website . After doing some research I've found the following scripts that's supposed to do that:

filename = ["circular.swf", "vibration.swf", "random_movement.swf"];
path = "http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/animation/";
i = filename.length;

I have just two questions regarding the script above;

1) What is movieTarget, is it a built in variable or is it a user defined variable?

2) Can the script above play movie clips that are on different layers and if not how can I do that?

Professional :: Loading External Movie Clips Randomly

Mar 2, 2010

I 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.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make Movie Clips Appear Randomly Above Stage And Play?

Jan 12, 2012

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!

ActionScript 3.0 :: Timer - Making The Movie Clips Appear 4 Times Randomly Throughout That Length Of Time

Jan 23, 2010

I have an mp3 playing. What I would like is to have a movieclip that is located in the library appear, complete it's animation then get removed. The movie clip must complete this proccess 4 times, randomly during the length of the song but never at the same time and not in the last 5 seconds of the song. BTW I can't do this manually by just firing it off a random amount of times because this code will be used with lots of different mp3's, so I need to use the dynamic data I get by retrieving the song length.

I have the code working to retrieve the length of the song, and I have a variable that stores the length minus 5 seconds from the end, so I bascially have the length of time I wish to work with. My problem is making the movie clips appear 4 times randomly throughout that length of time. The code is below (what I have so far), the movieclip is stored in the library as circle_mc.

The timer I'm using at the beginning of the code (to retrieve the length of the song) is set to run after 2 seconds this is because there is a delay in the music starting and if it did it instantly the number retrieved obviously would be 0, so I delay it by 2 secs till I know the song is playing. At the moment I'm just trying to get it to fire twice, at the moment it fires once or not at all

ActionScript 1/2 :: Load Movie - Randomly Load Other Swf's (individual Ads) Into Main Swf After

Apr 2, 2009

I am pulling double duty with this question as it serves two purposes. I am developing a total flash controlled ad system for myself, but also need to use the same theory for a project for work.

Concept: I have a main movie (ad rotator system) that I then want to randomly load other swf's (individual ads) into this main swf after a set period of time. The random load I got set no problem. The problem I am having is to get it to move to the new Frame label of the main movie which then loads the smaller swfs. I am using the LoadMovie with nInterval time delay command in flash to load the movies.

Randomly Load Movie Clip When Page Loads?

Mar 29, 2009

I 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.

Dynamically Creating New Movie Clips?

Apr 20, 2010

My game is initialized by calling the newBall function below. Every 10 seconds a new ball is created to increase the difficulty by calling the same function. The function works and creates the new ball movie clip, however the previous ball object gets destroyed for some reason. I have an array called ballArr that is supposed to keep track of all of the ball movie clips. I thought that by concatenating the name of the instance with an incrementing number that it wouldn't overwrite the existing object... what am I doing wrong?

Code:
function newBall() {
var ballNum = ballArr.length + 1;
var ball = this.attachMovie("ball_mc", "i" + string(ballNum), 0, {

What i intend to do is have a number of movie clips which load a photo from XML.As well as the photo i want something in the XML code that tells the movie clip where to place itself on the scene. For example it could contain a number from 1-8 and the scene will be split into eight sections across the X axis. So if it has the number 3 it will go in the 3rd section across anywhere on the Y axis.
