Are they just constantly adding MC's to the display list as the mouse is moved around? Doesn't that kill memory?
Is there a way to draw lines with Flash's core graphic class but attach a custom bitmap to that line?

View 2 Repliesis there a way to have flash read swf from a directory dynamicaly. so if you add a new one it reads it and you could have a next and previouse button to dynamicly browse throught them.
this way you could just upload new swf and it would automaticaly add it to the set so when you hit next at the end it would read the new one.
I am trying to create .txt file dynamically from a Flash projector exe on to the local system for a game, Wherein the score and the players name should be stored.I have tried using the Loadvariable POST method to no avail.
View 1 Repliesuse loadVars to read variables from .txt files on a different server with flash, do any of you know because I'm getting really annoyed?
View 14 RepliesI'm thinking about making a game that would have 3 "save slots", so you could play the game and then load the game later. If you were to save the game, basically flash would store a list of variable values into a text file.
Let's say I have game.swf in a folder named MyGame.Also in that folder I'll have save1.txt, save2.txt, and save3.txt. If I'm loading a game, I'd want Flash to open that txt file, read the values, and then set the variables equal to that in the text file. So if you open save1.txt and you see a=1, b=3, and c=2, I'd want flash to then take those values and set it's own same variable a = 1, b = 3, and c = 2.
On the other hand, if you're saving a game, let's say a=10, b=10, and c=10, I'd like it for flash to open save1.txt and replace the text there with a list of the current variables.Flash would need to do one more thing... if for some reason the file were deleted, Flash would need to create a new txt file. If the txt file is missing, you couldn't load, but if you're trying to save to save1.txt and that file doesn't exist, I'd need flash to create a new save1.txt and then put the variables into it.
I have a rather big (34 MB) Flash CS4 AS3 swf being loaded as a whole into a preloader like
l.load(new URLRequest("sample.swf"));
What are my options to minimize loading time? Can I split the swf and load from several servers? I'm dynamically loading images from the library:
var myBitmapDataObject:myBitmapData = new myBitmapData(100, 100);
var myImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap(myBitmapDataObject);
addChild(myImage);
Right now I'm declaring/referencing every single image in order to get it included in the compiled clip. Any better way? Haven't got round to using Flex yet.
I'm developing an application and because of certain design restrictions I have to do it in Flash. This application communicates with another one done in c++, but just because I need a couple strings, so I thought it would be easy to write them to a .txt file and parse it. But the only way I've found so far is adding a browse event handler and select the file manually. That's no good for me, I need the file to be read automatically given a path, something like:
var data:ByteArray = fileRef['C:whateverPath'];
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.loadBytes(data);
In Actionscript/Flash it is possible to create a swf which contains font data for emedding like this:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class Font_times_new_roman extends Sprite {
[Embed(
[Code].....
now what i would like is, to create something like this with glyphs from different source fonts.
for example unicode character x should be taken from Arial, while character y should be from times new roman.
I tried the code EmbedAssets.as below found in sample here: [URL] I got this error when building with mxmlc.exe and testing the ouput EmbedAssets.swf in Flash Player 9: VerifyError: Error #1014: mx.core::BitmapAsset could not be found

I'm teaching myself actionScript 3.I'm having some difficulty knowing which packages / classes to import from the flash core.I'm still a little shaky on the terminology but I mean these statements at the start of the main AS file.
import flash.display.Sprite;
Are there any good references / cheatsheets that describe what each flash.example.example provides? At least for commonly used packages.
I know it is intended for flex ... but what does that mean ... can I use it in flash ... if not, why not ...
but more importantly: all of the mx classes, spark classes, flashx classes ... why are they NOT for flash? pixels are pixels, matrices are matrices, 0's are 0's, 1's are 1's.

View 1 RepliesI'm just beginning to learn actionscript (I'm using Flash CS4).There's this little project I'm working on as part of my learning activities.I have a folder with 12 jpgs and I want to randomly load 6 of them into 6 mc's that I already have in my stage. I say randomly because I would like to have different images everytime I play my little movie. I know that if the jpgs names where somewhat serialized (i.e. "pic1.jpg", "pic2.jpg", etc.) I could easily do it by creating a variable to contain the numeric part of the name and concatenate it with the rest of the name (or something like that).
The name of my jpgs are pure strings (like "basketball", "soccer", etc.).Can I (via actionscript) read those names and push them into an array even though the names are pure alphabetical strings?If this is possible, I think I can figure out the randomizing after pushing the names into the array.
Can Flash Media Encoder handle several video sources and live srteam them all at the same time? We want to stream a few over the air broadcast sources using Flash Media Server v3.0. Is it possible to install several TV tuner cards into a PC and have Media Encoder live steam each of them at the same time? If not, can several copies of the software run on the same machine (each with it's own video source live streaming)?

First of all I take it it's alright to start developing for 10.1 - is it out of beta? So, core animation used bt iphone/ipad with it's underlying c language etc. How can we use this for AIR android development - any tutorials/blogs - googled it and nothing comes up even on the adobe site. This is supposed to be a revolution so where's the info hiding???
View 9 RepliesI'm developing a p2p mutliplayer game using adobe rtmfp server on facebook using flex 4. I have box2d for physics engine and the hardware acceleration is on. In 60fps, Average cpu cost for 6 players room is %40 for 1.86mhz intel core 2 duo. But in 8 and more players rooms, the cpu usage increases to %50 and fps drops to 50. I'm guessing that flash player uses only 1 core in full performance and resting the other. However I need all cores for 8+ rooms to simulate 60 fps smooth game. Is there a way to make flash use multiple cores at once?

Is it possible to zip/compress assets files into binary or .bin format through Actionscript or AIR? The compressed file will be in binary and can only be read by Actionscript which then parses the file.
Right now I am only able to read/write zip files using nochump's amazing library. I tried using AIR to write the bytes to disk and save it as filename.bin but I am still able to read filename.bin using 7-zip.
The objective is to protect my asset files as much as possible. Are there any other ways?

installing Adobe FMS 3.5.3 seems to completely wipe out all our interactive applications, and I wondered if anybody else had the same experience.
Back in the happy days of 3.5.2, to add a pre-recorded file to a stream, we created the stream:
this.clientPlayStream = Stream.get (slrStreamName);
[Code]...
I have some files in my src directory, some are .class files (Java class files) and some are .properties files, when I create the Adobe air native installer these files are not included. Why is that? How can I work around that?
Also it excludes .mxml files, but that's good. I'm sure that's related, how to change what it includes or excludes?
I'm going to implement a file uploading application using flex 3.5 and php. In the flex code I need to read the content of the uploaded file without calling the FileReference.load() method (Since it is a big issue when uploading large files). I checked many online articles and didn't find a way to do this in flex.access the content of this file without using FileReference.load() method?
