View 1 RepliesI've created a tutorial site which showcases how to create a few games, like the classic Catcher, Pong games in full AS3.0The tutorials are fully guided with step by step explanations, and source codes are provided.
View 1 RepliesI was watching a video showing an ngmoco rolando2 level designer. He seemed to be using flash CS4 to make the maps. Would anyone know how I would go about doing this?
Just in case you need to know, I am an intermediate programmer, I know both Java and Objective-C pretty well.
I want to make a simple game so that I can play against my friends at school. The school uses macs. Also if you can't make online games with flash what can I use. Also can they be 3-d if I eventually get good at making games?
View 4 RepliesI'm aware there are tutorials online that cover how to make game menus and preloaders for AS3 flash games, but I've found that books are more in-depth for certain topics. Are there books with sections that cover the process of making a preloader and menus for an AS3 flash game?My ultimate goal is to implement a preloader AND game menus without referring to the timeline.
View 1 RepliesI'm playing a flash game on facebook. I know I can decompile it to find out all the commands and would like to make scripts to automate the game by calling procedures in the actionscript of the game. So I guess I would like to make a plugin also that would insert this console into any flash app and this would be handy for a lot of things. Then if anyone wants to hack a new game, u just decompile it and make a handbook of methods for people to make scripts with. So how would I go about making this console? I don't know if I could make a swf interact with the game or if it has to be compiled into the game's swf. Or if it is easier with javascript, that is cool too. maybe we can make a javascript library just for this. anyone can tell me more?

I have found sample program at Web. But I cannot found the ActionScript3 program to implement double lick event for Air for iOS.
My problem is that the client I am making a homepage for wants the site to be done in Flash, but also wants to have the ability to make changes to the website on his own. Creating the website in Flash is not the problem rather what other program or method can I use, which is easy enough for someone who is not knowledgable in Flash or any other web design program, so that this client can make random changes to the menus and photos on this website?

Anyway, I was justing wondering what program to use when making sprites for an animation, games, or whatever on flash. Would you use bitmap programs like Photoshop or vector programs like Illustrator? Or Fireworks? Is there another program which is dedicated to making prites?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a program to load multiple images. So far, I have
Code:
import flash.display.*;
import flash.filesystem.File;
[Code]....
As far as I can tell, it's convinced that I'm trying to use the load() method from the scrollpane class (that's where the context help takes me). How do I specify that I want to use the loader class method?
if someone knows by which program (or template) I can make manu like this: [URL](drop down manu with image)

I'm trying to make a quiz program where each array entry has a: question, 4 answer choices, and the correct answer choice key.I wrote it in ActionScript 2 but I want to convert it to ActionScript 3 and I am lost on how to do something similar.I couldn't find any similar examples to the code I wrote.preciated.
ActionScript Code:
function mulChoice(question, choiceA, choiceB, choiceC, choiceD, correctChoice) {

this.choiceA = choiceA;[code]....
I'm trying to make a paper doll sort of program. I've got a bunch of PNGs of clothes cut out and I'd like to dynamically load them in with attachMovie. So I imported the PNGs into my project, but when I try to export them for ActionScript, the checkbox to do so is greyed out.
what the specific requirements are to be able to Export a symbol to ActionScript?

View 14 RepliesI have created a flash program and I would like to run a second flash program from inside the first. To explain, say I am running a program that draws a circle and fills it with a color. Then, I have designed a second program that will divide a circle into sectors by entering percentages, to turn that circle into a pie chart. Is there a way to be running the "draw a circle" program and have a button that opens the "divide the circle into sectors" program in a new window and then passes information from that program to the first program. I am sure I will have to send the information from the second program to an XML file and then have the first program recieve it from the XML file (which I can do), but I don't know if I can run the second program from inside the first program.

I know [url]... has its games on facebook. Can I also add there games on my website?
Background: I've been coding in VIM/C++/OpenGL for a long time.I've come to realize that this (VIM/C++/OpenGL) isn't the way to learn about programming fancy/cool-looking/futuristic UIs; and that the design of such UIs belongs more so in the artistic/designer world of Flash.
Anyway, I currently have a machine with MacOSX. What software should I install? What book should I read to learn about the artistic/design side of these futuristic UIs? [It's okay if the tools to design them are mouse clicking + graphical rather than coding based].
Question: what software packages + books to read to learn about creating fancy-looking / futuristic UIs in flash?
On my venture for quick rendering within Flash, I've worked out that the only solution is to create sprite sheets on the fly. Sprite sheets are created from a MovieClip using BitmapData.draw().
I have a graphics manager class which has a method that accepts a MovieClip and an int. The MovieClip is the target to capture graphics from, and the int represents how many different angles the image can be rendered at within 360 degrees.
[Code]...
Any advice around this would be extremely helpful. Note: I have made sure to utilize BitmapData.dispose() within my own dispose() method defined by SpriteSheet to clear up RAM, I am more concerned about how much RAM I can use at one given time (all game assets that will render ready to be used).
I am new to actionscript. I am following a tutorial on lynda. I am trying to learn how to create flash games. I am using flash cs4. The tutorial uses flash cs3 and and actionscript 3.0. I added a movie clip to my library and enabled export for actionscript. I got a dialog box that says "a definition for this class could not be found in the classpath, so one will automatically be generated in the swf file upon export." I click ok. Then when I try to test it, I get an error that says "call to possibly undefined method". What exactly am I doing wrong?

View 1 RepliesI hope I am in the right forum with my question - I am playing at [URL}.. and there is a Flash Application for Live Games - Link "Live" at the website.
My problem is that I can't open the Flash games because I if I click at "Live" in the main navigation nothing happens!!!
Other flash applications at other websites I can't open or see without problems - I really don't know what the problem is.
What are the best (considered by professionals) approaches while creating a platformer based game for Creating game levels & background (static ones).Create a single background and scale it?or Display it on-the-fly by loading objects (probably repeating them often).
If the first one is the choice then it would become essential to create each level manually of the game & putting level editors difficult.
Also if the later is the choice I find it too processor intensive....my frame rate almost breaks into half, while trying to manage so many objects together on screen.
Is there any way to play flash games in a java application? I saw jflashplayer, but it is commercial.
