I've just spent a bit of time making a animation, and created this animation within a movie clip. I did this because i planned to add a button at the beginning to start playing this movie clip, but since then ive scrapped that idea.
Whilst trying to export the file as either .swf/.gif/.avi etc. It's just creating a file with the image of the first frame.

Im working on a Dragonball Z MMO. things are goin great so far utilizing Flash PHP and MySQL. but thats not the issue right now.Im running tests of the battle system. i have the enemy set up as Mr. Popo (character from the series) The quality of the sprite appears great and in good color.however, when i compile everything into the final .swf, the movie clip appears diminished, discolored, and just really crappy looking.[code]it only happens to this movie clip in particular, any insite would be grossly appricated.

View 1 RepliesI'm having trouble exporting my flash movie to quicktime. I receive the error: The installed version of Quicktime does not support this type of Macromedia Flash movie. Quicktime requires Macromedia Flash version 5 or before. Please select "Version: Flash player 5" in the Flash tab of the Publish Settings dialog. I've tried changing the settings to every Flash versions 1 - 5, none of which seems to resolve the problem. I continue to get the same error message when I try to publish. I'm using Flash 8 and Quicktime version 7.7.5.
View 10 RepliesI have a dozen Flash CS3 documents that I am exporting to Quicktime for placement into Keynote. Some are 1024x768 and others are 1024 x 337. After I exported 1/2 dozen movies or so at the 1024 x 337, I tried to export one at 1024 x 768. Flash decided to squish it down to 1024 x 337. Now all of my movies are being squished to this dimension regardless of the actual dimensions. I have not changed any settings in the export window. This was working properly all week and now it decided to squish the movies.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to export a fla file to a mov file in Flash CS4. My fla file is 152 mb. It is a 5 minute presentation I created with a 39 second f4v file (video clip) in the file. I go to Export / Export Movie. I select Quicktime (mov). I keep the default settings and it starts to cycle through. It gets about half way and I get a message "The export operation failed because it ran out of memory" I'm running this on a Mac Pro, System 10.5.8. I have 4 GB of memory. My HD is 232 GB with 155 GB available.
View 7 RepliesI have created a movie in flash8 and when testing it as a swf file everything is fine, however when I expoxed the movie to avi format the sound secuence does not run at the same time as the movie, in other words the sound is running slower than the movie?I have the frame rate set at 12.0 fps and have tried exporting in different formates. As an example one formate I have used is Microsoft MPEG4 and changed the frame rate in the settings to match as 12.0 fps but the sound is always running slower behind the movie?
View 6 RepliesEvery method I have tried so far to export my flash file as a workable AVI or MOV is by creating the entire animation on the main timeline.This means every animation, every tiny bit is edited and altered on the Parent time line, and looping animations will have to be painstakingly copied and pasted for the duration of the loop.Surely there must be a way to save the movie to include all the sub timelines? I think to the very simplethat video is everywhere - even on youtube! you can't say that has been copied and pasted for each loop?
View 9 RepliesI've been building my app' and testing it every day by exporting it to a movie, and testing everything.It's all been going very well and the .swf is usually exported to my desktop in less tha the time it takes to minimize the Flash window.Today I started work on my .fla (mark18) and added a "back" button to every scene (it takes the user back to a main page with the actionscript:
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("Main");
}
There are 9 scenes which are very short.BUT, when I tried to export it, it took about 15 minutes to export.
I'm expecting a bunch of different animations that were made in Flash CS3 as JPEG sequences, however, many of the animations contain seperate timelines that contain seperate movie clips. When I view it as an SWF, everything looks PERFECT, all the movie clips within the animation are moving like they should and it looks awesome. But when I export it as a JPEG sequence, the parts of the timeline that are seperate movie clips and in their own timelines are completely static and don't move.What settings do I need to have set so that, when I export it, the JPEG sequence looks and behaves just like the SWF?

Now i have a FLV video clip that i want play on a webpage with a full screen option so this is what im doing:
File > Import > Video
On my computer > Browse > (Found my file 17.8mb) > Load external video with playback component > continue
Skin: SkinOverPlayStopSeekFullVol.swf
Now its been imported i export it into my directory that im upload to my server (the swf file is now 59kb)
In dreamweaver drag the file onto my webpage and upload. When i view the page online it gives me an empty white box. Meaning its not playing.
I have a problem when I try to export my movie. It just crashes. I don't know what to do anymore.

View 17 RepliesI am pretty new to ActionScript 3 and Flash. I don't want my movie clip to play unless the person's mouse curser is on the movie clip for more than a second. If the person just runs their curser over the movie clips really quickly, then it should do nothing. It must be more than a second. How do I code that?

I'm creating a small drag & drop activity, and I want to be able to check and see if the dragged movie clip is completely within the bounds of another movie clip (or at least in the bounds of a certain x/y zone on the main stage. I can't use dropTest because it returns true if any tiny bit of the movie clip overlaps with the dropTest movie clip.
I also thought of something that just checks the x/y coordinates of the dragged movie clip, but I'd need this to reflect a range of values rather than one coordinate. For instance, I'd want to return true if the movie clip's x is between 50-60 AND the y is between 50-60. I'm attaching a small graphic to illustrate in case my explanation isn't clear enough [URL]
I have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) {
_root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true;
}
on (rollOut) {

each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.
i am making a pacman game, and i need to know how to make it go to a certain scence when a movie clip collides with another movie clip.
View 2 RepliesThere is a bad gap in my knowledge with Event Dispatch and Event architecture, and this problem proves it. I've been getting nowhere on this problem for two days, I've posted everything to my Flash site. Go here, please: [URL] Click on "Flash Banners" The two thumbnails represent two different classes. Each class is identical. Both are "extends Movie Clip" classes. Tweeners of various types control the hover and click methods. URL Loaders load the thumnails which I then wrap in MC's and make them buttonMode = true, etc. Hover and click to load the Banners on the thumbnails.
I can't send an event from the Eagle movie clip or the T2D movie clip to tell the other to fade out. Both Banner classes are instantiated through a separate Base class. I'm sure this has to be an Event Dispatch from one MC to another and that it can't be done by the Base class. how I can send an Event or Event Dispatch and what the code structure is so one movie clip can in one class can tell the other movie clip in the other class to disappear while it's neighbour is playing. I'm happy to post code or explain / clarify anything that's not clear.
I've got a main timeline .swf file called "blank.swf" which contains nothing but two blank movie clips one called called "pproduct", the other called "ppalette". In the script frame of this main timeline I use the simple "Loader = new Loader();" method to load a URL of an .swf file into the "ppalette" movie clip. The "ppalette" movie clip contains several color chip buttons, each of which use the same Loader method above to load an external .swf into a clip. Here's what I want to do: let those color chip buttons, when the "blank.swf" file loads, be used to load an .swf movie into the "pproduct" clip on the main timeline. I'm wanting to be able to swap depths with various movie clips which will take out the movie which has the palette, but I want whatever that palette has loaded in the original "pproduct" clip to stay there.

I have created an animation in Flash which is 2mins long at 25fps, so 3000 in frame length. However when I export it as either a swf or a mov it plays for 6mins! The frame rate is definetely 25fps in Quicktime export settings also but still it doesn't play for the correct duration? The Quicktime movie says 6mins also desptire the fps matching.
The movie is a standard timeline animation?
it seems simple enough but i have no idea on how i could get a movie clip to slowly move to the coordinates of another existing movie clip

<<<>>>> i believe that this idea is good , that i records the X and Y postion of the User's movie clip and just make the other movie clip points at this postion and move toward it ,
how to make the other Movie clip (( which is a car ! .. so it have acceleration , speed , steering , etc )) go to this position or let us say try to??
Q1) The registration point of a created clip is top left - my question is how can I dynamically change it's registration point - say to center center?
(I am trying to attach a movie clip to a created clip and I wanted it to be centered inside the container - a related sub-question, how can I find the x-y coordinates of the attached movie clip within the created movie clip?)
Q2)When I tried to create two different movie clips, I found I had to create them at different depths, else the first would load and the second would not. Why would that be so? I'm on MX 2004 Pro.
I have a very simple problem but I can't find the very simple solution to it. I've create an animated menu with animated movie clips inside to work as buttons. All the main buttons work perfectely but I've got just on button with a sub-menu. On this sub-menu I've placed an invisible hitarea button in order to place some gotoAndStop action. The thing is, it seems to me like this submenu hitarea are underneath something else (even though is the seccond layers right about the actions layers). I've placed a simple trace action whenever the mouse rolls over this area but I get nothing... Am I doing something really wrong? I'm losing all my hair already.
