Flash :: Having Trouble

LoadMovie Trouble Trouble Troubles
hello,

i'm having a little bit of trouble here trying to load multiple movies into the same container. not all at one time. like this:

when a button is clicked this happens in my preloader clip which is located in my _root movie:

********************************
// set vars
sectionMovie = _root.currentSection + ".swf";

// un/load movie
unloadMovie("_root.SectionContent");
loadMovie(sectionMovie, "_root.SectionContent");
********************************

then the next frame of the preloader says:

********************************
// get the percent of the movie loaded
bytesLoaded = _root.sectionContent.getBytesLoaded();
bytesTotal = _root.sectionContent.getBytesTotal();
percentLoaded = int((bytesLoaded / bytesTotal)*100);

// if it's loaded then continue
if (percentLoaded == 100) {
this.gotoAndStop (1);
}
********************************

it all seems like it should work. i click "button1" which loads "movie1.swf" perfectly. then i click "button2" and it will unload the movie fine, but it just stops when it gets to "loadMovie"... anyone know what is happening?

thakns in advance for the help, it's a school project...mwaahaha!

"Oooooh Trouble Trouble..." (Foghat Reference +1000 Points)
I am attempting to add X movie clips to the stage via script, with follow AI behaviors added to each of them. But for now I am just having them immediately start moving left until they hit the stage edge OR eachother...which is the problem.

I cannot get them ALL to stop when they collide with somehting else on the stage...

the way I atempted to solve this problem was to start an array... a list... and to add to that list the name of every object I add to the stage when I add it to the stage. So before ANYTHING moves it loops through this array to see if it is hitting anything else on the stage. Sounds simple right?

Well it seems to only work for the LAST movie attached in my function.

I have attached the script to this post. Please take a look, provide some help, give me some alternative ideas, tell me a good joke :-P, just gimme some feedback. Thanks in advance to anyone who even tries to help.

Trouble Explaining The Trouble
i am having a hard time explaining this problem so i have attached my fla file with some notes attached to it.
i'm trying to customise the a.s. but alas i'm not very good at it yet.

i have an element on the page that when it is clicked on it zooms big and comes to the center of the stage. when you click on it again it zooms back to its original position. - i have this part working.

the problem is i want elements within the zoomed elements to behave the same way. essentially zooming further into the stage. i just can't get it to work.

at this point i am completely lost, any help on this is much appreciated.
thanks everyone

Trouble With URL Help Please
I'm curently developing a web site, and I am making it with Front Page. I allready have my flash animation to post it on to my site. But the thing is that I'm trying to post some buttons I did in flash, on to my HTML page and make these buttons open the frame I want it to. My HTML page has 4 frames.
I've allready done it but I just can't have it open the frame I want to. Please help!!!!!
Or is there an other way of inserting Flash Buttons into Front Page??????

If Else Trouble
I have an interface, and when a button is clicked it plays frame 1 of a movie named "screen" which I dragged on to the main movie.

If any of the buttons have been clicked it no longer plays frame 1 instead it plays frame 31.

How can I do this successfully, I'm trying to set a variable to 1 then increment it by 1 each time a button is clicked, if the var equals to more than 1 then it should play frame number 31.

But I'm not that familiar with the syntax however I kinda know what I'm supposed to do.

Can anybody help in any way?

Trouble With An If
Alright I have to frames and one button. The button should tell the the root to go to "portfoliop" frame onyl if the current frame on the root is not damnit.

Should this really be this tricky?

on (release) {
if (_root._currentframe != "damnit") {
_root.gotoAndPlay("portfoliop");
}
}

As usual assistance is always appreciated.

Thanks everyone

Trouble With The Web
Hello,

I have experienced some problems after uploading my website onto the web. I designed it (obviously) totally on my home PC and everything there works perfectly, all the preloaders work, the intro is fine and the seperate movies load as they are supposed to.

However, when I've uploaded it, it won't get past the intro. The initial preloader seems to work fine, but the separate homepage.swf etc. just won't load. They're all being held in the same sub folder on the ftp server and I can see no reason why it won't work - particularly as it is great on my home PC.

Anyone else had these kinds of problems?

Trouble With Æ,ø,å

Please Help : I'm In Trouble
Hi guys,
I’m facing a major problem with a scrip that I’m doing, i think it's pretty simple but i can't figure this out.
I’m loading variables (numbers) from a text file with a loadVariables("poll.txt",_root); action, i can see the variables when i run the swf file. but the problem is that i'm trying to have a "total" that counts all the variables and dump them in there.
I’m using variable1+varables2; but it doesn’t work. i think it's because it's loading it from an external files please help. The Swf file will be in flash 6.

thanks in advance

Trouble With Mc's
Hi Dudes & Dudettes!

I am hoping that one of you flash bods can help me out with this MC problem that I can't get my head around!?

I have a movie that I am working and in theory it should be quite simple. I have a MC(screen) of a display screen that part-rotates on a timeline of 100 frames (24fps) frame 1 shows a 3/4 left side on view of the screen - frame 50 shows a flat front on view - and frame 100 shows a 3/4 right side on view. This movie clip is then put into another timeline on a 750width stage where the MC-Screen starts on the far left hand side of the stage and moves to the exact centre on frame 50 and finishes on the far right of the stage on frame 100 all positions on the stage correspond to the rotation amount in the MC-screen.

What I want to do is have 10 screens placed at intervals across the stage and want the MC-screen to start playing from different frames of the MC-screen ie: the first screen plays from frame 1 of it's timeline then the next screen will always play from frame 10 etc... so it gives the effect of continuous movement by the screens. I have tried to duplicate the MC-screen and then paste the first 10 frames at the end of the timeline for the MC-screen so as frame 10 becomes frame 1 but it seems to eat the memory up.

How do I do it??? someone out there must have some idea......
......please!!!!

Cheers

Hello. I am creating a simple flash file for my boss. When I use the jimco addins flasher to add my movie to the site, It works fine.

It works fine as just a SWF too by the way!!

Here's the link. The SWF and actual file can be found at:

HELP Trouble With .swf
I've loaded some .swf files into my movie, and when I use my navigation buttons the image remains on the screen, on top of the navigation.

Right now I have it set up so that the .swf is actually a pop-up from a hotspot, contained within a movie. The button is contained on frame one. The swf is on frame 2. I have an exit box in the upright corner that hold the unload movie command. This works great as long as you don't try to use the navigation buttons. But!! as I said, when you try to use the navigation buttons while viewing the movie holding the .swf, the .swf stays right on top.

What can I do? Please Please Please help me. I'm supposed to be leaving on a much needed vacation today.

More Trouble...
Now, I know the javascript code, and everything
I even tested it in a HTML page and it worked.
But I'm having trouble with flash.
THere's two pages:
index.html
home.html
I put this code in index:
var windowH=600 // high

// set the screen position where the popup should appear

var windowX = (screen.width/2)-(windowW/2);
var windowY = (screen.height/2)-(windowH/2);

// set the url of the page to show in the popup

var urlPop = "teste.htm"

// set the title of the page

var title = "This Is A Frameless Popup Window"

// set this to true if the popup should close
// upon leaving the launching page; else, false

var autoclose = true

// ============================
// do not edit below this line
// ============================

s = "width="+windowW+",height="+windowH;
var beIE = document.all?true:false

function openFrameless(){
if (beIE){
NFW = window.open("","popFrameless","fullscreen,"+s)
NFW.blur()
window.focus()
NFW.resizeTo(windowW,windowH)
NFW.moveTo(windowX,windowY)
var frameString=""+
"<html>"+
"<head>"+
"<title>"+title+"</title>"+
"</head>"+
"<frameset rows='*,0' framespacing=0 border=0 frameborder=0>"+
"<frame name='top' src='"+urlPop+"' scrolling=auto>"+
"<frame name='bottom' src='about:blank' scrolling='no'>"+
"</frameset>"+
"</html>"
NFW.document.open();
NFW.document.write(frameString)
NFW.document.close()
} else {
NFW=window.open(urlPop,"popFrameless","scrollbars, "+s)
NFW.blur()
window.focus()
NFW.resizeTo(windowW,windowH)
NFW.moveTo(windowX,windowY)
}
NFW.focus()
if (autoclose){
window.onunload = function(){NFW.close()}
}
}

Trouble With My FPS
Im making a simple FPS and im trying to make the enemies pop up at a certain point but they never come here is the script for the enemy named socka:

onClipEvent (load){
counter = 0;
}

onClipEvent (enterFrame){
counter +=1;
if (counter>=1200 and _root.doorahit==true){
this._y = 80;
this._x = 200;
counter = 0;
}
}

And heres the script for the button that you use to shoot him (if it matters):

on (release) {
_root.gun.gotoAndPlay( 2 );
if (_root.doorahit==false){
_root.doora.gotoAndPlay( 2 );
}
if (_root.socka._y==80 and _root.doorahit==true) {
_root.socka.gotoAndPlay( 2 );
}
}

The varaible doorahit is activated in a movie clip animation and I know it works just FWI.

if you can see anything ive done wrong please say.

Thanks, Plog.

Gif Trouble...still
I guess I haven't solved my gif problem. I am able to center all the gif frames at the same time but when I test movie the animated gif still plays in the upper left hand corner instead in the top center where I moved it. What up wit dat?

.sfw Trouble
Hi! I have a movie that when tested in flash plays beautifully. When the .swf is placed into my index.html page in Dreamweaver, and i try to play it, it only plays the background color of the .swf. (not the BG color in Dreamweaver)...as if the movie is playing the scene but not loading anything else.

am i wrong in assuming that when the movie is tested and works that it is all good to go?

I have done 2 sites this way in the past and they are totally fine. Have also tried uploading it anyway (through Dreamweaver) and it plays incorrectly on the web, as well. But when "testing in browser" within DW it works fine, as it does in flash.

Basically, what I have is a scene that is loading 2 .swfs into 2 separate, higher levels. So when played you see the BG color of the movie, and on top of that an .swf, and then on top of that another .swf. obviously when in DW, it isn't loading them.

I don't get any error messages in DW.

I have tried hunting down an answer to this for almost 2 weeks and can find nothing.

Anyone have a clue???

THANKS FOR ANY HELP!

I Am In Trouble

And another thing, I can view the swf. and the html files but can't publish it directly from flash.

www.air-portal.com/test4.html the clicking on our work-when the box with the text loads up there is a button which says launch, when this is clicked it should activate the pop up.

I would really appreciate any help you can give me.

Thanks alot,

Bad Trouble Down Under
I was trying to help a young student with her school assignement (in flash)
She built her homework using MX2004 on a PC
I built her a replacement graphic using MX on a Mac

I sent her the replacement symbol (named Symbol 4) and told her to import it into her FLA with instructions to select REPLACE SYMBOL when asked.

She followed my instructions and her FLA dissapeared from her computer...

I'm in bad trouble here... your help would be greatly appreciated.

A Bit Of Trouble With Pop Ups
Alright heres the deal,

I have a gallery section as part of my personal portfolio site that allows the user to choose an image to display from a vertically scrolling image scroller.

The trouble is, the BIG image that is the "pop up" window is displaying prematurely. That is to say, The thumbnail button of the pop up will turn off and on the visibility of the pop up correctly, but the problem is that the pop up starts out visible, when it should start out invisible.

Wow...that was difficult for me to explain for some reason. I'm not too experience in action scripting yet but here's a break down of the button script.

THUMBNAIL BUTTON (this is the button the user presses to display the "big version of the image)
----------------------------------------------------------------

on (release) {
tellTarget ("/") {
setProperty("GIMAGE_01", _visible, "1");
}
}

POP UP WINDOW (this image is inside a movie clip as a button. The user clicks the image when he is done to close it down)
----------------------------------------------------------------

on (release) {
tellTarget ("/") {
setProperty("GIMAGE_01", _visible, "0");
}
}

So again, the problem is that the Pop Up image is being displayed before the user even clicks the thumbnail. Is there a way I can set the Pop Up image to invisible UNTIL the user clicks the thumbnail?

I've been stressing all day over this seemingly simple problem.

Thanks guys.

.as Trouble
Hello. I've been practicing using .as files and I ran into a problem. When I try to have a text field named:"text1" say something from the .as file. I have this in the .as file:
Code:
_root.text1 = "Hello, this is the scroll tutorial on scrolling! This will be explained in the "scrolltext.as" that has the actionscript in it! Goodbye, hope you understand!";
But it in the text space during a text, it will display:"_level0.text1". I don't know what I am doing wrong, can someone help me?

In A Trouble
Hi,
In my latest project I need to load and play several demo files in my flash movie/player. I cannot edit those demo swf files as they are exported into swf format from some other application. The problem is the demo files have some sort of scrolling in them which affect the movie clip they are loaded in and the whole player starts scrolling along with loaded file. I think that is because of some sort of coding in those demo files. All I want is to stop my movie clips from scrolling because of the loaded files.

Here is an example to see. The demo swf (demo1.swf) is loaded into a movieclip (loader) and you can see how the player/movieclip is scrolling along with the movie!

I’d really appreciate if someone could tell me how to stop loaded swf files to affect the player from the script within them or simply from that annoying scroll.

Thanx

Help Pop Up Trouble...
I have a button in flash mx 2004 and on release a java script window pops up (which is fine). However, when you press next and select other buttons, the pop ups pop under the site. Which makes the site user unfriendly.

on (release) {
getURL("javascriptpenNewWindow('splitOak.htm','t hewin','height=250,width=300,toolbar=no,scrollbars =no') ");
}

and the JavaScript to the HTML page is:

-JavaScript-function
openNewWindow(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures) {
newWindow=window.open(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures); }
-script

PLEASE HELP!

thanks for your time

Swf Trouble
hey guys,
I need any way to get to a solution on this one. I only have a swf file of one of my old projects that I need to reproduce and edit. I either need to know how I can make my swf into a fla, or what i have also tried is to copy all of the frames made when opening the swf in a new fla, but the frames are all off center and I need to center them all but there are way too many frames to move them one at a time. Is there a way to move multiple frames, physically, on the stage, or do the swf into fla thing?

Thanks for any help

hey, i can't seem to get my signiture to work, i've tried 'insert image' but i don't know if i'm doing it right, do i just type its (i'm not good with the technical terms so bare with me) path like C:Documents and SettingsChad SaundersMy DocumentsMy PicturesPhotoShopSig 1 copy.jpg inside the 'insert image' box, or is it done differently.

Well Im In Trouble
Ok, I have seen posts about how to design web sites on here but Im really not experienced with making a site. I understand flash a little, but I just have a few questions to start. First, after making my background and stuff, does the document dimensions have to be a certain size to make it look like a normal website when its published? Also, Anyone know of any good tutorials to make a menu bar? I have seen some that look kind of tacky anything would help. In case anyone was wondering my site will be based on the Detroit Pistons, its a project for school. I havent really seen any good tutorials on how to make a good website. Thank you to anyone that helps and you guys have a great site, with AWESOME stuff. I may have future questions.
