I am an interactive design student working on a flash portfiolio and . I can't figure out how to load a game I made in flash into my porfolio so that it loads after clicking on a button, becomes playable, then have a button to leave the game and go back to my portfolio. I'm working in Actionscript 2.0 because that's all my teachers will show me and I have minimal actionscript knowledge.
View 1 RepliesI am having some problems showing my videos in flash after moving it anywhere besides my computer.
I published my flash file once as a exe. file and sent it to another computer, where it all worked but my videos, which didn't show up at all.
I also published them as SWF files, then put them up on my free website (where i don't have access to the ftp) and the videos still aren't there.
The videos will play fine in an SWF file on my computer, but i am assuming when they are away from the videos, they don't have a source to access them.
I also tried sending the videos along with the SWF files when sending to other computers and it still doesn't work.
I now have a free hosted website (with wix.com if that makes any difference) with my flash work on, but no videos. I even tried to embed a youtube video into the scenes the videos are meant to appear, and put the videos on youtube, then i discovered you can't put that sort of HTML into flash.
how to show the videos on these sort of website, or even better, how to keep them in original file when sending them, so they show on other computers.
Have a look at this:[URL]
and then this: [URL]
notice how it doesn't take any time to load on first URL, but on the second URL, it takes A LOT of time for the flash swf (header) to appear. Even when you change pages, it doesn't seem to get cached.
Im currently making website in flash. My problem is that I have some trouble with putting one of my games on my website ( Yes it is MY games, not stolen). I use the code:
ActionScript Code:
myGame_mc.loadMovie("myGame.swf");
The game shows up in my MC, But I cant play the game.
I've built a flash website for my client. I created the website, and it worked just fine. The client then came back with a few minor changes and additions. The only major addition was an intro animation, which I created in 3D / After effects.
Now, the website works when it's on my hard drive, but the minute I upload it, it suddenly stops at 3%. The loader dissapears, and nothing happens after that. I have tried deleting the additions, including the animation, and the updated menu. Same problem, only the point at where it stops loading becomes 5% instead of 3%. I have tried removing the preloader, and creating a shell.swf, which loads the file in using an external preloader. Same problem occurs. If I link directly to the file ie [url]... then nothing happens either (that link is for example purposes only). I have tried copying frames and pasting into a new flash file (main2.swf) and same problem occurs. Lastly, I tried removing the preloader, instead creating a simple test animation that loops until the file is loaded. Also just sits there and stops loading.
I want to create a piece that allows a box to open that would hold say [URL]. The goal is to keep the user on the flash page but allow them to do a quick search without needing to leave the page. From what I can find though, flash can only render basic HTML. So far I have only found responses using As2 which gives me a slim hope but not much. I'm guessing this might be better achieved with javascript.

View 5 RepliesI am building a website entirely out of flash. I know thats not a great idea, but it is not the biggest website in the world, however it does contain seven or eight .sws that take some time to load.When I test the website via a cable connection (T1), the speed of opening the website is not bad, but on DSL pretty slow.I dot want to turn people away from my site how can I make sure my flash site doest load that slow? Ie read somewhere that if you put all the .Ss into one master file it could make the site load faster.seen some flash websites that are big and their files load
View 2 RepliesI have recently followed a tutorial on how to create a simple loading screen, on completion of this i realised it was teaching me how to create a loading screen for a flash movie. How I would change my Action script so at the end of the movie it would display my website?
My current action script is as follows..
First frame:
Code:
bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
this.loadBar._width = getPercent*100;
this.loadText = Math.round(getPercent*100)+"%";
if (bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
this.gotoAndPlay(3);
}
Second frame:
Code:
this.gotoAndPlay(1);

I recently made a slideshow in Fireworks and want to it to load when a user clicks to the Portfolio page on my time line. Fireworks exports the gallery into an xml and index.html that has code to automatically load the swf that contains the slide show.
have a website that I have to modify. It is entirely built with flash. The problem is that I do not have the fla files. So I have two options: either using a special program which converts the swf into a fla file or build the website with the changes from scratch.
View 1 RepliesIf you go to the website: [URL]. The white square is my embedded flash swf file, but as you can see it isn't playing. In Flash, when I test the movie, it plays beautifully. When I put it on my webpage, it's just blank. What bothers me is that I embed Flash swf files frequently with zero problems. The only difference is that this is a video. The swf file is properly uploaded to my server. I've attached the swf file for reference.
The html is:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="320" height="240" id="FlashID" title="TDR">

<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />

I have a website that has a SWF embbeded on it with SWFObject. This SWF file has 1,5 MB. I would like to test if website (Lightppd) will be alive if 600 users per hour will try to open it. It will be approx. 900 MB / hour of transfer.
So I have 2 questions in one:
1) Does ab (Apache Bench) test handle SWFObject and gets SWF file while testing too?
2) If 1) is false how to load test my website with SWF file embedded properly?
How would I go about embedding a 3d object onto my website that allows drag to rotate (preferably all directions not just horizontally)

How would you defer loading of other graphics on the page until after the images in a Flash gallery's images.xml file are finished loading?Is there any way to detect for this, or would I only be able to check if the flash swf object is finished loading? I'm pretty sure the swf object would be loaded/ready as with document.getElementById('flashobject').onload = function(){}; before the corresponding images have loaded though, instead of after.
