Controlling Scene Sound Effects
Hi all,
Im creating a horizontal scrolling scene, alls workin fine and ive begun to add the sound effects. However, there are many different areas to the scene that require FX and having them all playing at the same time at full volume is a bit overwhelming.
I'd like to keep them all playing at the same time, but is there any script to reduce the volume of the sounds that are off the main stage?
Ideally, i want to replicate a stereo scene, where sounds fade in and out from left to right depending on the users movement of the horizontal bar.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
If you need a look at what im talkin about you can see it here
Cheers

Controlling Sound Levels From One Scene To The Next
Controlling sound levels from one scene to the next
I have a training course that has 12 scenes
The default volume level is 50% “I like this”.
My problem is when your in one scene and set your volume level to say 80% it set it to 80% that’s great, but when you go to a new scene it sets the volume back to the default 50%
Is there a way to keep the volume at 80% from scene to scene.
Im using flash 5

Transition Effects After A Button Is Pressed Before It Goes To The Target Frame/scene
Hi, I really need some help with some actionscript because when it comes to that, I do not know where to start...
On my site, I have a menu a the top. When a button is pressed i want it to play to then end of the scene, then goto the corresponding scene to which button was pressed, so there is a transition between when the button is pressed and it going to the next scene.
I really dont know how to go about doing this, it is probably obvious, i have thought about having a play for however many frames it is until the end of the scene, then gotoAndplay at the corresponding scene (this is the actionscript for the button, OnRelease action)
could someone please tell me what i should do......

Controlling A Mc From Another Scene...
Hi,
How can I control a mc from another scene?
Say, I have a movie with 2 scenes, each containing movieclips.How can I control a movieclip on scene 1 from a button on scene2? Think that the button on scene2 is in a movieclip.
Thanks for your help.
Controlling MC From Within A Scene.
Here's a scenerio:
There is a group of 3 cubes and one ball and they all move together motion tweened across the stage. When they get to the end of the stage, the ball moves again to the other side of the screen and the cubes stay where they are. Is there a way that I can create a symbol animation of the ball so when I get to the point where I need the ball to move on it's own, I can play the balls animation in the symbol and not have to animate it with the cubes staying put? Does this cut down on file size?
Mc Controlling Scene
I want my movie clip to tell a scene to gotoAndPlay(2); when it reaches a certain frame(frame 68).
What I did was put
ActionScript Code:
_root.gotoAndPlay(2);
into frame 68 of the movie clip. I also tried the same thing with a telltarget command.
Does anyone know what to do?
Controlling Another Scene's Timeline From An MC
Is it possible to move the playback head to a frame number in Scene 2 by clicking on a button in a movie clip inside Scene 1?

Thanks for the help!
Controlling Scene Movement...
Here's what I'm going for:
You have x amount of links to other scenes in the movie.
You're at some scene (like 4) and click to advance to another scene (like 5).
When you click to change scenes (ie. from 4 to 5), there's a middle scene (like 4_unload) that plays.
After the intermediary scene (scene 4_unload) has played, the playhead then advances to the clicked scene (scene 5).
So basically, here's what the scene layout would be:
Quote:
Preload
Intro
Scene 1_intro
Scene 1
Scene 1_unload
Scene 2_intro
Scene 2
Scene 2_unload
...
I just have no idea how to get the playhead to go to a scene, play it, and then move to a different scene that does not normally fall sequentially in the scene dialogue (like going from Scene 2_unload -> Scene 5_intro)
Any help would be awesome and greatly appreciated (perhaps an easter egg with your name/info/pic on the site, eh?) No? Too whore-ish? Ah well, thought I'd at least offer some compensation for your time/effort/input/whatever.
Thanks,
Mike
PS. I suppose I could just use movie clips, but I'd rather use scenes. If it's not possible, then movie clips ahoy! But if possible, I'd love to know how.
Controlling Scene 1 From A Movieclip
I have a menu set up within it's own movie clip. My pages I need to open are located in Scene 1 (the main timeline). What kind of code do I need on the menu buttons so I can use a code like
on(press){
gotoAndPlay(3);
}
from the menu? How do I get the menu to move along Scene 1 instead of it's own timeline?
Thanks!

Why Is Scene 1 Playing Sound From Scene 2?
I have a large Fla with lots of layers... anyways, Scene 1 plays a long streaming sound... at the end of it, I put in a "stop();" and the scene waits for the entire movie to load...
The problem is, when the scene gets to "stop();", I hear the two sound effects that are in the NEXT SCENE! Visually, all it shows is Scene 1. It stays there for a while in fact...
Why is it playing the next scene's sounds!?!?!?!?
Scene 2 Scene Sound Problem....

Controlling Mc Playback From The Main Scene...
Help!
I'm trying to get an mc symbol to playback different sections of itself in responce to a global variable changing.
Something along the lines of placing this within a keyframe on my actions layer of the main scene:
function init() {
If(x=1){
instancename.gotoAndPlay(20);
}
}
init();
However I can't seem to get it to work and I think it's got something to do with the way in which I'm targetting the mc, as if I place similar code within an onClipEvent(mousedown) of the mc and replace:
instancename.gotoAndPlay(20);
with
this.gotoAndPlay(20);
then I seem to get it working, etc...
Any help would be much appreciated as I've searched various forums and can't really find what I'm looking for!
Thanks for your time (from a proper newbie!)

Controlling A Movie Clip In A Different Scene
Hi Everyone,
I have a website that is all one flash movie separated into several scenes. Is there a way that I can have the sound On/Off button in one scene control the state of the other buttons throughout the site? It is annoying right now because once the button is pressed, it changes from on to off and then, when you go to another section, it is showing "on" but no sound is playing.
I tried to set up a "If then" argument based on sound volume, which is how the button works.
The relevant code is attached.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
Jeremiah
Attach Code
embedded in the button
ON
stop_btn.onPress = function(){
_root.music.setVolume(0);
gotoAndStop(20)
}
OFF
play_btn.onPress = function(){
_root.music.setVolume(25);
gotoAndStop(1)
}
Attempted argument to change button state
if (music.volume == 0) {
mute_mc.gotoAndStop(20);
else {
mute_mc.gotoAndStop(1);}
}

Controlling The Scene From A Movie + Opening Windows
Hi all,
I think I'm getting the hang of this flash lark, but there is still a lot that evades me!
Part 1:
Currently, I have a scene, and when a button is pressed, it jumps to a different frame in the movie where I have inserted a movie clip. In that movie clip I want to have a button that I click and it takes you back to the 1st frame of the entire scene, but I can't see how to do it.
I've tried using the "tell target" command, but I get a BASE error! At this stage I went crossed eyed and gave up!
Can someone tell me how I tell the button to go to a frame outside of the current movie clip?
Part 2:
I also worked out a little while ago how to open a new window from flash withou the menu, scroll bar, address bar etc, but I've lost the .fla! Can someone tell how I did it/ how to do it again?
Thnax a lot people

Buttons In A Movie Controlling The Main Scene
Hi I thought this should be easy maybe I am doing somthign wrong, I have the main scene which I want to jump to different frames when a user clicks a nav item.
I thought it may be easier to put the nav items in their own movie just to keep them together so I did and that is included on the main scene at frame 1 where the main movie stops and waits.
Now the problem I have is that the buttons don't work when they are in their own movie, the on click event doesn't follow through.
on (press) {
gotoAndStop ("Scene 1", 5);
}
Which in my mind should work but it doesn't what am I doing wrong should I not have the buttons in their own movie?

Sound Effects
hiya, i've made a game in flash mx but the sound effects and backing music isn't working.
I'm using Gary Rosenzweig's "Actionscript for Fun & Games" as a guide so i created a function to load the sound. this is the code:
Code:
function triggerSound(soundName) {
// simply play a sound
soundfx.stop();
soundfx = new Sound();
soundfx.attachSound(soundName);
soundfx.start();
}
then i use this code:
Code:
triggerSound("music",0);
to play the sound.
however, i have a background music that should play throughout the game but when the player gets a correct answer a sound effect plays & cuts off the background music. I think this has probably got something to do with the layers that i'm playing it on but not too sure how to adapt the code because i've tried placing the sound effects on layer 1 or 2 but it still cuts the backing music off. How can i resolve this??
