View 1 RepliesHow can i make a combination of keys make a movie clip visible? Basically i want something like this to work:
if(Key.isDown(Key.Alt && Key.A)){
reminder._visible = true;
}
So when someone presses the Alt and A keys down at the same time the 'reminder' mc becomes visible?
We're making a viral video which is going to be distributed as FLV movie file free for download and redistribution.
I don't know much about flash yet but I can imagine FLV is just some sort of special flash application which can also include arbitrary code.
Is it possible to track how many times that movie file has been played by letting the FLV file perform a server-callback when playback begins?
I have to make a flash movie that would allow the user to control the framerate of the movie. Unfortunately I'm not that good with flash and I don't know how that could be done ..I thought about something like
"on(press){
movieclip.increaseframerate(*2);
}"
I've been searching high and low for a tutorial for your Flash movie that will show you how to make the movie ask for the users name at the begining and then it'll disply the name later on in the movie.

I'm making a room escape game and I've run into a problem. When an item gets added to the inventory, I'd like the user to be able to click on the item to affect another object (e.g. clicking screwdriver hides screws and displays other image) however when I add the code to the item, if the item is clicked and it's nowhere near the object it affects, the image pops up and it looks really stupid.
So what I'd like to be able to do, possibly using if and else statements or whatever's easiest, is to only have the inventory item be clickable if the movie clip of the object is affects is visible on the stage.
I'm making a shooting game but there won't be much of a challenge without enemies that point and shoot. Is there an easy way to make them do that?

Any steps and code to make a simple flash movie loop 2x or 3x in Flash 9?
View 2 RepliesOn a button click I would like to accelerate at a specific moment the movie (from 24 frames per second to 60) and then slow it down again to 24 frames per second.
View 2 RepliesI am very new to Flash and would like to find some way to have a movie expand from the page and open larger. I have tried having it open in another window, but that looks cheezy. It would be great to have it sitting in the page (right now it is 375 X 280) and then when someone clicks on the video it opens, without any borders, just viewer, to 900 X 675. I have looked online at various players, but none do anything like this. There has to be a way to make this happen. Right now I am using Dreamweaver CS3 and just using the embed player that is part of Dreamweaver.

View 6 RepliesAnimation of the head that comes up with the crank on it is 15 frames long. The head stops at frame 15, and it begins to crank at frame 16. Do I make a keyframe at frame 16 of that still crank at its begininng position, double click it to get its own timeline, then import the other 7 images of the crank animation into this seperate timeline, animate its cycle, then go back to the main time line at frame 16 and it should play the cycle when the main timeline hits frame 16? What if I want the cycle to only crank once around and not loop? Then, what happens to this movie clip when frame 17, 18 20, 30 is playing? It takes say 2 seconds to play the crank animation so while the play head is going along after frame 16, and the crank is moving what is in its place on the main timeline after frame 16? Should I just put frames in for the length of the rest of the animation (brain and words coming out of the head)?

this will make your movie clip bounce. that i need to know is why does it bounce. i cant quite get my head around it. i start of and accelerate, hit 300 on the stage but then go up decreasing my speed by 0.8 every frame..
