One of our external developers has created a minigame in Flash CS5 which we are embedding in our container by loading the SWF. The minigame's document class (Icegame) should and does implement a specific interface DreambearMinigame.However, it appears that when that game is published some kind of preloader is generated, since when loading the game in the container and casting loader.content to DreambearMinigame we get the error cannot convert Icegame__Preloader__@blabla to DreambearMinigame
i'd like to know if this is possible: currently i have a file menu.xml which contains menu information 2 levels deep (main menu, sub menus). this i am reading into flash and generating the menu. i would like to change this process:
1. call a php script which creates the xml output and using headers sends that data back into flash. sending and loading vars is no problem.
I noticed this thing that Flash self generated graphic symbols and names it Tween1, Tween2, etc. I am not sure why it happens. Usually it happens when I tween something and then this accompanying graphic symbol appears in the library. Do I really need them, is it a flash mulfunction and I can safely delete them? why they are happening, am I making all the wrong steps in tweening and thus they appear?
I am trying to make a flash movie in flash cs4. All goes well but whenever I return to the scene and then double click on a movie clip or double click on a movie clip in the library I can get to the desired clip but the workspace all turns black and I cannot see the edge of my document /artboard.Sorry if this a silly overlook on my part but I'm stuck and cannot get the proper view back.
I'm newbie in flash. I have created a button - it looks perfect. I got seperate keyframes for UP, OVER, DOWN and HIT events. The OVER (and only it) has assigned the sound. The problem is flash plays sound (assigned to OVER) for DOWN event (no sound assigned). I have no idea what is wrong, tried everything with this. I am unable to find soultion,
<div>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</div> <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
[Code]....
Viewing it in either Gecko, Webkit or Presto, an unintentional vertical space occurs after the object, before the second div [URL]. Removing whitespace from between tags, or explicitly setting margin and padding does not help.
I have a chunk of Code which Flash confirms is without errors, but when I either compile the program or click the AutoFormat Button, Flash puts a curly bracket at the end of it and then has the audacity to complain that there are "extra Characters found at the end of the programm."I have to have this running to go online on Sunday the very latest.[code]
I have a static, UTF-8 encoded XML document that gets loaded by a custom movie clip class into an array and then items from the array are read and displayed in a dynamic text field that is attached to the movie clip,depending on which one is rolled over.Everything works perfectly except that an ampersand displays as & apostrophes display as ' and quotes display as ", even if I use the special character inside the XML.Higher level character codes actually display properly, so character codes for circle shaped bullets,registered trade mark symbol, Greek characters, etc, work! But a blessed ampersand does not.Setting the dynamic text field to either read as HTML or not read as HTML makes no difference.
Using CDATA tags in the XML makes no difference.In fact,when I use CDATA tags and enclose text containing a special character code, Flash goes the extra step of converting the ampersand in the special character code to &!! So" becomes "Using & just gets converted to &.So Flash's XML parser is parsing the & to an ampersand,which Flash's text parser then converts to &. WHY? And how do I stop it?
I found the function below to clean out the unwanted characters,and it works,but it seems a ridulous length to go to.And I probably have to extend it to accomodate whatever other characters don't work in Flash, but I don't know what those might be until I encounter them. Also,the function works whether I use a special character in the XML or not. ie, if I put an actual "&" into the XML, this function will display "&" and if I put & into the XML,it will still display as "&".
I am trying to breake apart text in flash (CS4) and distribute it to separate layers. The breaking apart works fine, but when I want to distribute the letters into layers, I get this: "could not complete operation because of an unknown error".
This code generates buttons (MC's actually) which get a name and a url from a XML file. The problem is that the url assigned to the buttons is the same for all buttons, namely the last entry of the XML file. I can't seem to figure it out.Here's the XML file:
i want to make my mp3 player generate some sort of a xml/txt file or e-mail that will store which song has been downloaded and the number of times it has been played and add date stamp to it so i can view it when required. i think parts of this can be achieved in a simillar way as a flash ''contact form''.how to start this.links and examples would do very well. I am not sure if most of this can be possible but i would like to try it.below is the action script i have on my player...
var song_folder:String = "songs/"; var song_list:Array = new Array(); var code_list:Array = new Array();[code]....
all i want is when the download btn is pressed, it has to generate the necessary data.
I'm creating I created a generic class I thought would be useful to others, too. So I wanted to share it. But before I need some opinions on it and whether there's something handy that it's missing.This class generates random data and all its usable code is static. Here is the structure:
ActionScript Code: package com.inhan { public class Random { public static function get boolean():Boolean {}[code]...........
So I try to compile ffmpeg as I described here after this patch I started seeing .l.bc files but no .swc files. So how to use alchemy completion suite to turn .l.bc into .swc?
Not sure why this is happening but everytime I test a movie (CTRL+ENTER) in Flash movie it produces a blank white screen. I even created a new Flash file with a simple Shape but it still gives me that blank white screen when I run test movie. It does, however, run correctly when I click the *.swf that got generated. I'm not sure if my work recently upgraded me to a newer version of Flash Player.
I'm trying to get the id of the target in showMe(). For example, when I click button or image panel's showMe() function executes first. Here I want to capture the button/image's id.
private function init():void { pnl.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,showMe); }
I'm trying to compile a project using compc from command line.[code]Any ideas why adding to the library path a folder with the swc I want to use generates an error?
I've developed a preloader for an ActionScript 3 application that uses URLLoader to load an encrypted swf. This has been tested on different OSs, Flash Players and browsers and everything works as expected except for a series of PCs being used by a colleague on a corporate network. The PCs at fault use Flash Player 10.0.22.87 with IE6 on WinXP and get security sandbox error #2048 depending on the contents of the file being loaded! Some of the tests and results include:removing 99% of the contents but keeping first 6k (works)replacing contents with 4 bytes 00 (works)inserting 16 bytes: EF BB BF <html></html> at beginning of file (works)inserting 16 0s at the beginning of the file (fails)xor FF all bytes (fails)I've tried other tests such as different file extensions, Security.allowDomain(), crossdomain.xml, Security.loadPolicyFile(¦), dataFormat = URLLoaderData Format.BINARY etc but I think these are all irrelevant due to the fact that the app sometimes works.The code is just the standard new URLLoader(), adding event listeners, then calling load(new URLRequest(¦)). The test app doesn't include the loadBytes() so this isn't the issue either.
The PC at fault could be behind a firewall or using a proxy. At this stage my only theory is that their antivirus, firewall or proxy is examining the contents and sometimes decides to intervene, perhaps with a redirect. This would also explain why (according to the web server logs) the files are being requested even though the security sandbox error is generated. However, this does not explain why Flash generates the error in the first place, depending on the contents.It's not possible for me to visit on site or get them to modify their settings or configuration, but I can ask them to run various Flash Apps for testing.URL...I can come up with a workaround (such as ensuring the file always starts with dummy <html> tags and then strip them before decrypting), but I'd prefer to get to the bottom of this issue if possible to be confident it won't occur again; this is for a Facebook application so it's possible it will be used in a large variety of environment
I made an application in Flex 4. When I export a release build, it generates a whole bunch of files. (including the skins used, etc, etc.)How do I make those plentiful files except the container HTML file, get compiled into a single SWF file?E.g.My folder should only contain:
my_app.swf my_app.html
But my_app.swf should still run like a normal Flex 4 app, only this time, all the files, images, skins, etc are inside that one SWF file.
I made this simple AS3 game that generates a random amount of stars on the stage. The user has to count the number of stars, punch that number into the input box and hit submit.The problem is that if the user wants to play again, he/she will have to go through the hassle of closing and re-opening game. That's why i'm now wondering how to make a reset button that re-generates the stars for the user to count again.URL...
I'm trying to create a loop which generates a single series of sine results ranging from 0 to 1 based on 100 loops ( ie 0 ,0.011 ,0.1111........up to 1 in a single run)The results I want start at 0 and increment in a series up to 1 and then stop. I suppose this would be one half of a sine wave I have tried the following but it goes from 0 to 1 ,1 to 0 , 0 to 1 etc whereas I want a single straight run of 100 values from 0 to 1
I want to make a preloader for flash mx 2004 that when it finish becomes to decrement another time. I would like to do it to modify the flash preloader component.
I have a web design for a client that was pretty much complete. They decided that they wanted to replace one of the graphics with a flash animation. When I added the swf file to the layout in Dreamweaver it apparently is adding some space around the swf which breaks the rest of the design. It looks to be about 4 pixels or so of space that is getting added. I experimented with padding, margins, borders on every element in the design. I tried changing the Scale parameter of the swf to "no border" and "exact fit". I tried enclosing the elements in a table. To simplify things I created a new blank page in Dreamweaver and added the two elements that are giving me grief. The original width of the design was 792.
On the top I had 2 graphics, the first was 212 wide and the second was 580 wide. The first graphic is the one that got replaced with the swf file. The swf is also 212 wide. But for some reason there is that extra space on the right side of the swf that forces the second graphic to the next line. You can see the example here: [URL]. This shows what happens when the original graphic was replaced with the swf. (The swf doesn't do anything as I actually replaced the client's swf with one I made that has the original graphic as the only item in the movie). If you look here: [URL]. I changed the width of the second graphic to 574 wide. That kept the graphic on the same line, but you can clearly see that the swf has the unwanted space to the right.
Problem embedding CS4 Flash Movie - Player 10. I am embedding a Flash Movie into an HTML doc. The doc was created in DW CS4 and has a table with 3 columns and 5 rows. Each cell will have content. I put a flash movie in the center cell, three rows down from top. Everything looks great in Safari. However, in IE, FF, and IE Chrome, there is space along the top and bottom of the movie -- have not tried the AOL browser. About 10 px each. I've tried everything to fix it. I published the HTML in Flash and tried integrating the generated HTML with my table -- same problem. Maybe publish settings could be tweaked.
I've tried 0 margins in CSS header tag, and HTML too. I thought I had this problem about a year ago with a different site ... been that long ... and resolved it.
When I import a psd layered file I get an unwanted (red) border appearing around the art and as a box around the art. This doesn't exist in the psd file, but appears in the flash file. Should I convert and import it as something else? Is it a resolution setting in flash?
I have created a button for a homepage, and, to help designate it as "clickable," I have changed its background color on the Over through Hit stages.However, the background color change flickers instead of staying the changed color.Go to and hover over "Cirlces for Rice Field Days 2009" in the Spotlight box on the homepagethis is the flickering button.
In the below code sometimes when microphone is not connected some noise is generated and the system just keeps on buzzing the same sound.Whats wrong with the code below and how to reduce the unwanted noise. Should i set myMic.setLoopBack(false) in the below code
Basically I'm creating two (can be more or less) rows of layered MC treaten as Buttons.In each MC there is a small thumbnail hidden behind a coloured layer. When roll_over the coloured layer, this alpha goes to 0(zero) and entire MC resize +10% over x and y.On roll_out the opposite occurs, everything should get to the original alpha and size.
The Problem: when moving the mouse really fast over the MC's and stop suddenly over one of them it starts 'blinking' (size and alpha goes in and out and won't stop unless you move the mouse a little)
