I have a flash movie containing to scenes: scene1, scene2. I have chosen the order so that scene1 starts first, I was requested to add a functionality to allow flashvars to be passed, if fv_change equals one then scene2 should be the first to appear when the movie is loaded. I have included the following code in scene1 first frame of some layer:

View 1 RepliesI have 3 scenes in my flash, so when I run the movie it goes through all scenes, however I have a button which send you to the next scene.
When he is not pressed I want that just first scene( in my case Scene 1 ) is looping. I mean I have 30 frames in Scene 1 and when it is on frame 30 I want to go to frame 1 of Scene 1.
How to do that using ActionScript2.0?
I have a feeling this is a stupid thing that I'm either overlooking or ignorant of,I have a simple Flash piece that is two scenes -- Intro and Body.Intro plays fine, but when the timeline enters the final frame of the scene it is supposed to go directly into the Body scene. Here is the AS I placed in the final frame of the Intro scene:
stop();
this.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, EnterFrame);
function EnterFrame (event:Event):void

I have an error that is not negatively effecting anything, but I'd rather fix it if I can. I have to do with "MouseEvents" when I change from one scene to the next. As in the objects do not exist in the "new" scene so there is a "null object referenced" error. The objects are not referenced in the new scene. Its a "mouseOver" and so when the scene changes and the "MouseOut" happens it tries to exicute a funciton on an object that is no longer available. I was thinking of changing the functions to "if/Else" statements, as in:
"if currentScene=X Mouse out, Else "NOTHING"
I'm having some problems controling my site. I have a movie clip and inside this movie clip I have an action script to take me to a diferent scene but the button isn't working

The problem is there are other movieclips I need to change to the same color.Heres the script I'm trying to do:

I want to add something acts like a screen protector in my flash. when there is no body uses my flash in 5 minutes. my flash automatically go back to my home page. i am thinking using a timer. but how can i detect that when my flash is not in use, like not pressing any things(my flash is a touch screen one)?
View 1 Repliesi have created an online calendar, you can see it on this link this application uses php as well which is called through the actionscript it works fine on firefox browsers, and some versions of IE, the version i have is explorer 7 (which i really dont like), and it doesnt work well at all. dont know if it works on safari or other browsers, i havent checked it out yet (the main problem is trying to write more than one message, it isnt displayed on the messageboard on IE).
View 1 RepliesI have two scenes, 'Preloader' and 'Scene 1The preloader works fine. It is when I want to go to a frame using gotoAndPlay that the problem exists. The preloader is only 2 frames long.The frame I want to goto is frame 40 in 'Scene 1'All the buttons will do this, but for this examples use he "Resume" button on the swf files.if I use _root.gotoAndPlay(40) it will go to 2 frames prior to the one I want. I.e. Frame 38 in Sceneif I use _root.gotoAndPlay("Scene 1", 42) it does nothing as well.if I use gotoAndPlay(40) it does nothingif I use gotoAndPlay(42) it does nothingif I give the frame a label and use that label such as _root.gotoAndPlay("Resume") it will have the same behavior as _root.gotoAndPlay(40), however on the second click it will go to the correct frame. As in here: "resume" once and it will go to the contact info, click it again it will go to the correct frame. Click it a third time and it will go back to the incorrect frame.
if I use _root.gotoAndPlay(42) it works and goes to frame 40, but if that button is clicked a second time it will go to 2 frames after the frame I want. Here ttp://www.blackonyx.net/ Click Resume once it goes where I want. Click it again and it goes two frames ahead and starts to play, which isn't what I want it to do.

Am using eksternal page as a Chapter, and A Chapter consist of many Pages (it using Scene)
For an example :
Chapter 1 --> Page 1 it will be represented as hal1.swf-->Scene 1
Chapter 1 --> Page 2 it will be represented as hal1.swf-->Scene 2
Now, How to control it, I still didn't get it ??
whenever I set my sound to stream and continue to make a movie with multiple scenes. The audio and video get disgustingly out of sync sometimes even off by 30 seconds. I just started an animation its only 10 seconds long with two scenes and the AV is already off by about 5 seconds. Ive worked around this by avoiding scenes altogether but i really don't want to have another 5000 frame scene. I discovered this problem in Flash MX and Im quite annoyed that it still has't been fixed 3 years later!
View 1 RepliesI have an animation where I want to play a movie clip and then play another movie clip from the library (selecting randomly from a group of movie clips). I couldn't figure out how to get this to work, so I tried to play the first clip, and when it gets to its last frame jump to a random clip which is already on the time line. The AS is attached.
Clearly I'm missing something critical here.
how to accomplish my current task. I have an .fla with 32 frames in it, an open frame, a close frame, and a bank of 30 frames in between. I want to set up some AS so that once the user clicks a "Next" button on the first frame, it randomly jumps to another one of the frames within the bank of 30. Then, when they get to that frame and view the contents, and click next, they'll randomly jump to another one of the remaining frames. This will only happen for 20 frames, after the 20th viewed frame, I want the "Next" button to take them to the final slide in the series. The purpose being so that each time a user views the program, it's never the same (well not likely ever the same) - so they'll all see 20 different frames in a different order.
I'm guessing I could do this with arrays, and the math.random method, some if/else statements.
I've made a banner that swaps through different images. I'd like it to start at a random image when the flash movie loads.
Currently, I'm using this code, and it works fine to an extend:
Code:
//function to get random frame
function getFrame() {
//Store frame numbers

I am building a project where i have 4 mc's each on their own frame with individual labels.What i am trying to figure out is how to have one selected in a non linear order when the next button is clicked. E.g. Im on frame one, the mc is done playing and i click next.instead of going to frame 2 i want it to randomly select a label located on either frame 2,3, or 4.
View 2 RepliesI'm making an interactive website using ActionScript 3 and no matter what I try and do I keep getting the following error messages:

I know this may seem like a really simple and stupid question. I'm a programmer, but new to actionscript and my main problems are related to the way flash works (not inherent problems, just my lack of understanding). I've modified the XML Tutorial to load more than one XML file. It works well, but the only problem is, I have a textfield on another frame, which I want to load in the frame 1 actions. The XML code isn't the problem, just an a little background on why I am using ".text =". When I do this, as a test, from within Frame 1 of Layer Name Action Layer;

I would like to be able to spin a wheel in flash, this wheel has 8 sections to it split up equally, it spins for a random amount of time, 3 - 7 seconds and then stops. the section which lands on the marker is the result and will take you to a specific frame. Also i would like it when it stops to gradually slow down however this is not vital.this code works for just rotating a wheel but i want to know how to randomly stop it and how to take it to another frame.
onClipEvent (enterFrame){this.ang=ang+0.01;_alpha=190*Math.sin(this.ang)+190;_rotation++;_xscale=260*Math.sin(this.ang)+1900;}
I trying to randomly jump to a frame in a sequnce of pictures on the timeline. Neither of the parts work below - the first "if/then" statements or the commented out switch code. Very frustrated with Flash CS5. Do I really need to learn AS3 to use CS5? I'm having other issues with code I've used in CS3 Flash not working in CS5. If I'm setting the publish settings to AS 2 and Flash Player 8 it should work, right? [code]...

Lets say I make an physical border for the element. A "box" 200x100 and this box is centered. How do I keep my random moved element inside this "box" or frame you may call it.

View 1 RepliesI created a movie clip that i want to act as a button. Inside that movie clip i place 2 graphic symbols (in different layers) that each have a tween of 30 frames. In a different layer i put a stop(); at frames 1 and 30. Then i create a fourth layer writing the following code for all 30 frames:
Code:
var rewind:Timer = new Timer(10);
var rootButton:MovieClip = MovieClip(parent);
rootButton.RR_mc.buttonMode = true;
rewind.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, rewindHandler);
[Code]...
1. On mouse over the movie clip (RR_mc) start playing normaly untill frame 30 where stops.
2. On mouse out the movie clip starts rewind going frames backwards. Now if i put my mouse over the movie clip, before rewind reach frame 1 the rewind stops and the movie start playing again. 2b. If the movie clip reach frame 1 after rewind, then is not stopping and continues to give frame 1 (if you put a trace(this.currentFrame(); you get infinite 1s). On mouse over the movie clip afterwards i can see that trying to start play but it's progress is max 2-3 frames before the rewind routine pull it back at frame 1.
3. If i transfer the timer and it's function to the parent directory then everything work fine.
I want to write all the code for the button inside the child directory of that button, is it possible?
I created button and opened it and i see no DOWN UP OVER CLICK labeled frames, just frames like in regular MC and its actually works as button if i create frames
View 1 RepliesI've moved back to AS2 fairly recently since it's web compatible and a nice break from C++. Anyways, what I was trying to do is to create a battle system that shows the amount of damage that you've hit. The best I could do, though, is make a static textfield that randomly goes around the enemy and show a different number since the "attack" hits multiple times at once. I originally used a MC with 15 frames, one for each number, and animated them accordingly as well as using attachMovie() to create the effect that I wanted, but that didn't work for much larger numbers in the hundreds.
