3D Flower Interface
Hey there,

I've been recently asked to do an interface from this file(view the attached file).

The file was from ultrashock, anyway my client wants the interface to appear instead of the circles.

Is there any easy way to change the circle to movie clips/buttons?

I would also like to have the 3d flower rotated randomly after being selected and the interface will zoom into the selected link and the sublink will pop up from the selected link.

I've been told by my friend that it requires XML but I think there's gotta be an easier way.

Can anyone understand what i'm saying? haha. oh well. I hope someone can help me out on this. Thanks in advance.

Flower Petal
I've looked all over the stupid internet for help with this one. The best things I came across were Kirupa's snow (which wasn't transferable to flash 8 cuz the "rad+="). The other stuff I found were just snippets of code on making a sin motion like a pendulum clock.. which were still out of date.

That's what I'm trying to create with blurred motion later on:

http://img451.imageshack.us/my.php?image=petallq8.swf

I tried using ZigoEngine's _bezier_, which worked with a couple of objects but it lagged like no other when trying 10+.

any help would me muchas awesome.

Flower Power
Hello,

How would I create a flash navigation from the petals of a flower. What I want is that each petal (5 petals in all) will be labeled then when the user hovers over a petal it will make the whole flower-head spin around very fast and back to the petal they hovered over. Then that petal will contain an image of something that that section contains. When the user clicks on that petal they will go to that section.

Does anyone know an easy way to do this in flash?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Game: Chasing A Flower
Hi all
I'm working on a new site of a restaurant and we decided with the client that we should make a game that anyone who wins gets a free bottle of wine in the restaurant. The game is as simple as this:
In the screen there is a flower that moves on rollover. Whoever manages to click on it gets a free botle.
i use the following code:

ActionScript Code:
this.game.inv.onRollOver = function() {
var xcoord = randRange(30, 970);
var ycoord = randRange(30, 570);
onEnterFrame = function () {
var xmove = xcoord-this.game._x;
this.game._x += xmove/5;
var ymove = ycoord-this.game._y;
this.game._y += ymove/5;
};
};
this.game.flower.onPress = function() {
congrats = "congratulations"; //In the real game when someone wins a contact form will appear)
};
function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number {
var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random()*(max-min+1))+min;
return randomNum;
}

The instance "inv" is an invisible circle which is a little bigger than the flower itself, because i discovered that whithout this, it was too easy to win.

I have a couple of questions:
1. Is it possible in slower pcs the game to become easier?
2. Can someone hack this?
Thanx in advance
The game can be seen here
I attach the fla

Blooming Flower Idea.
Hello guys & gals,

I am trying to figure out the best way to make a flower bloom in flash. Ideally I would like to have a photo quality image flower bloom.

Here is an example of a flower that I would like to bloom.

I was thinking that if I kept the center of the flower (the core) in it's exact proportions. While having the outsides be perspected in there respective directions with a small shadow applied, might be the best way for the flower to look closed, and then flattening the image out would make it appear to bloom.

But I am looking for some better ideas, and some implementable ideas.

Does anyone have any?

Interpreter Error When Trying The 3D Flower Tutorial
g'day.

trying to do the following tutorial, to get some practice in 3D-2D within Flash 5;

http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/3D...01/index.shtml

And whenever I run, i get the following error;

Error: A 'with' action failed because the specified object did not exist.

So basically I'm looking for anyone outthere who has worked through this tut, to see if they had any probs, (the object it falls over at is within the 'render' function, whenever it tries to update the vertex objects. itcant find the vertex object I think)

If no-one outthere has done this, any information on this error would be greatly appreciated.
i.e. does this mean my original creation is messed up, and if so, why doesn't it output this error?

Hope someone can help, many thanks

Masking To Reveal A Flower Or Branch...
Hi,

Ive read many threads about masking and am quite familiar with the basics. What I am wondering is the best way to reveal the branches of a tree so each branch and leaf slowly appears one at a time...a circlular or square mask looks unnatural. Is it simply creating a mask for each branch, or is there a better way using AS to have a smoth revealing effect?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Make The Flower Petals Fall Apart?
Hi, I am new at this forum. I am stuck with a flash project I am supposed to work on, which is to make the flower petals fall apart. I am not sure how I am going to do that on Flash MX 2004. (I have Flash 8 too - this flash project was originally worked with Flash MX 2004, so if you think Flash 8 would work better for this project, let me know then. thanks.)

Do you have any helpful tips that would make the flower petals fall apart? Thanks!!

P.S. -- I am a beginner-intermediate Flashster...I am not expert with ActionScript yet.

3D Flower (tutorial:3D In Flash With Cos, Math.sin And Z-axis At OnMouseOver)
from this tutorial:

Code:
http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/3D/3D_Flowe-V_Ramra-801/index.php

i did the whole tutorial perfectly.
But why don't i see anything in the swf file?

The .fla file that people can download from that tutorial from above page, is slightly different. eg: this line is added in the .fla file from the tutorial:

PHP Code:

var variable, buffer, no;

my swf file is:

Code:
http://www.fzvastgoed.nl/pcxpert/page_flower.html
http://www.fzvastgoed.nl/pcxpert/page_flower.swf

when opening the URL, it nags about my 2GB memory (and 250GB HDD space) computer is too slow. That can't be, so the action script is very complicated i think, though, after clicking: 'yes, play the swf file', i see nothing.

my .fla file is:

Code:

Help With A Growing Button
Yes I posted this in the noob section also, I hope this is not a violation of the board rules and if so, mods please forgive me as I am new. Just gently let me know and I will learn.

Anyhow, I have this button that I am trying to create. The problem I have is that on the over state I have a MC that plays and makes the button larger, the hitbox stays the original size. Because of this, when ever I come off of the small hit area the button shrinks back down. What I would like to happen is for the buttons active area grow with the size of the button. Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated. I am attaching the .fla of the button. (48k)

Stop The Mc Growing
I got some help with this code which I placed onto a square mc. It roates the square and scales it up but how do I stop it from scaling up too much? I know it has something to do with an if statement but im not to certain on them.code: // create an onEnter
this.onEnterFrame = function()
{
this._rotation += 5; // rotate the mc
this._xscale += 5; // increase its size
this._yscale = this._xscale; // increase its size
};
};
// when you rollOut
square_mc.onRollOut = function()
{
this.onEnterFrame = function()
{
// if it has reached original size
if (this._xscale <= 100) {
this._rotation = 0; // reset rotation
this._yscale = this._xscale = 100; // reset size
delete this.onEnterFrame; // delete the method
// while it doesn't reach original size
} else {
this._rotation -= 5; // rotate the mc
this._xscale -= 5; // decrease size
this._yscale = this._xscale; // decrease size
}
};
};

Growing Panes
Came across this great looking site from Fuji Film recently. There's some very clever, but subtle, scripting obviously involved, particularly the FROM FUJIFILM page which shuffles info panes with wild abandon. Any ideas as to how they may have achieved this?

Growing Flash Ad?
Hey Guys New to the forums so far been VERY helpfull, Except i have one question which hasen't been answered seemingly.

I am currently wokring on a project thats starts with a small window with a portion of a map on it once clicked the window is supposed to enlarge over the htlm on the document , What i want is to have the small 250 x 230 map enlarge and grow over the html on the page to display the full sized map of apporximately 450 x 500.

How would i go about doing this ? can the canvas size be animated somehow?. Or should i be loading an externalmove?,or simply useing a goto and play frame label? Or am i on the wrong track all together?

Growing A Line
Hi, I'm relatively new to Flash and am seeking info on how to make a curvy line grow regularly in an animation. I have created the final line in Illustrator and imported it into Flash. Is there a way to reveal it, bit by bit, so it appears to be growing regularly, like a vine? Thanks for any info or tutorials you can point me to! BW

Growing Circle
i thought this would be easy but it;s not..

i am doing a spotlight mask and a whole bunch of tween so it looks like a spot light moving around the site. It will then stop in the middle of the site and grow in size eventually revealing what's underneath.

how would i make the circle grow slowly till eventually grows off the page?!

Growing Vine
Hi , I 've been trying to create a growing vine much like this one: http://members.inode.at/554689/fruit.swf. ..can anyone help?
Thanks

Growing Effect
http://www.liquideye-designs.com/main/index.html

i've seen this effect on alot of sites and i would like to know how it's accomplished.....where an animation basically draws itself onto the stage....and when another link is pressed it retracts everything it did ......

1.how is that effect done?
2.when the effect is retracting is that done manually or is it script that tells it to go backwards?? (i dont know so maybe thats why the question seems a lil weird)....

Growing Effect
I want to do a grow effect on this tree:
http://bohner.asdf.pl/tree.png
The effect that Im looking for is similiar to that on tokyoplastic.com or frogz.de (?), Im not sure if the address is correct but, it had a black and blue intro, then in the main there was a frog sitting on some kind of plant that was animated like it was growing.

Im guessing that it could be made by masking but, the effect would come out different than theirs.

Thx for all of your help.
