I'm Going Crazy
I'm going crazy. I am trying to bring in a quicktime movie that i made in Afftereffects into flash. Everything works beautifully on the stage. However, when i publish, export, or even simply try to preview the movie, the quicktime bit doesn't show. Do i need to embed the clip? if so, how? Can i have a quicktime in flash and still have it be interactive. The frame rate of the quicktime is 12 fps; the same as my FLA. movie. What's going on? how do i solve this?

Please Help Me I'm Getting Crazy
Hello,
Maybe someone can help me with my problem, i'm trying whole week now, but i don't get it right.

I made a homepage with frames in html, now I want to load my swf movie in one of the frames.
This is no probem it works perfectly!!
I created only one big scene, the scene is big because it contains JPG pictures.
I thought flash was streaming, but the movie only starts when the whole swf file is loaded?????????

I tried a preloader but that doesn't work beause then he loads the preloader and the whole file and then he starts playing. (he doesn't show the preloader)
I'm pretty sure that te actions of my preloader are right, and without my preloader my movie isn't streaming either.

Maybe you can take a look at my homepage, first you get the intro with a preloader (thats fine), but when you get at the html menu and you press the link "diashow", he first loads the whole movie and then starts to play??
Ans on this moment I don't use a preloader!!!!

I am getting crazy, why doesn,t my movie stream??????

My homepage adress is:
http://members.brabant.chello.nl/~m.martens/

Sorry for my bad Englisch thats because I'm from the Netherlands but , Please Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks

Martin

HELP....GETTING CRAZY WITH MC´S
this is my problem and I hope U might help me:

I have a scene. inside that scene I have a mc. then in frame 11 of that mc, I put a stop action, so it could play anoother mc I have in that keyframe.

Is it possible that when it finishes playing the second mc it goes back to the first one on frame 12?

basically it is a movie clip inside another movie clip
and what I need is to know how to call the first movie on a specific frame when it finishes playing the second

I really hope U can help....my neck depends on it!

Going Crazy
i have been trying to figure out what i am doing wrong for about 4 hrs straight.

Here is my problem:

I have 2 movies (swf)

primary.swf
secondary.swf

In the 2nd swf i have actionscripts with _root
When i load loadmovie to the 1st swf with different scripts, i either have the 2nd swf in the top left corner, or its within a MC BUT the actionscripts do not work.

I cant get it to load in a MC AND have the actionscripts work at the same time.

Here are some of the scripts i have tried to use:

loadMovie("secondary.swf", "_root.MC"); = AS doesnt work, but loads in a MC

loadMovieNum("secondary.swf", _root.MC); = AS works, but 2ns.swf pops up in a new window

loadMovieNum("secondary.swf", 1); = AS works, but loads on the top left corner

please, if anyone has any ideas on how to fix this please reply.

Thanks in advance.

Please Help Going Crazy
I have a main movie. On the bottom of it is this:

Previous 1 2 3 4 5 Next

I've got it so that when you click "next", it goes to the next consecutive page, & the # (which is a MC) gets larger...and when you click "previous", it goes to the previous page & the current # goes back to normal & the # that it is on gets larger, etc...Now I want to also be able to click on the #s themselves & make them go to that specific page. I can do that...the problem is if I click on say 2, then click "next" it doesn't go to 3. Here is the code I have for the "Next" button...(the "previous" button's code is basically the same)...

on(release){
// next one to be loaded
_root.nextLoaded += 1;

// the one that is selected now
_root.lastLoaded = _root.nextLoaded - 1;

// load movie at into level 1
// they should be named consectively like
// mySWF1.swf, mySWF2.swf, mySWF3.swf, etc

_level2.loadMovie("slide" + _root.nextLoaded + ".swf", pageholder);
_level3.loadMovie("text" + _root.nextLoaded + ".swf", pageholder);

// scale the next number movie clip
_root["n" + _root.nextLoaded]._xscale += 50;
_root["n" + _root.nextLoaded]._yscale += 50;
_root["n" + _root.nextLoaded]._y = 387;

// "unscale" the one that was previously selected
_root["n" + _root.lastLoaded]._xscale = 100;
_root["n" + _root.lastLoaded]._yscale = 100;
_root["n" + _root.lastLoaded]._y = 393;

if (_root.nextLoaded != 1){
attachMovie("previous","previous",5);
}
}

How do I get them both to work? I guess what I need to do is put in some script that will tell the movie to know what SWF is currently loaded...but not sure how to do that...

Please Help Going Crazy
I have a movie that has a series of colored boxes that appear on the stage...one appears, stays for a certain amount of seconds, then is replaced by another one that stays for a certain amount of seconds, and so on...I have a pause, start & rewind button that is SUPPOSED to pause & start/resume & rewind the rotation of the boxes...when I press pause, it does pause, but when I press play again, it jumps to the next keyframe, thus ignoring that AS that is telling it to pause...the pausing of each box is done with AS...

I guess what I need is this...I need the movie to know how much time has passed since the image came on the screen, so if the viewer presses the pause button and then presses the play button to resume the movie, it will know how much time has passed, & will then continue to pause until the FULL pause time has elapsed, and THEN, go to the next keyframe...

I can't post the FLA b/c it is too big...(Weird b/c it's only 1K) I can email it to you if you want...PLEASE HELP!!!!

Thanks!

Crazy Help
For whatever reason flash and shockwave have quit working on my computer - I suspect because of one of the games I loaded at one time.

My os is winxp - most updated version of ie.

I have uninstalled - reinstalled - followed all of the steps on the macromedia help site - and nothing. When I go to a site with flash, i get a small white box. I'm ready to slam my head into a brick wall. Nothing is working and this is insane.

Any ideas or help! Please!!

Going Crazy.
Hello Everyone.

I am trying to write my first real actionscript program to take some user information and send it to a server. The second part will be to write a script to format the data so it will import into another program.

I have attached the following code. However it does not seem to be sending the data to the data folder.

Can anyone point out a suggestion on why its not working??

Thank you for any suggestions.

dataURL = "http://www.flashtfs.com/data/";
function showResult(success) {
if (success) {
trace("record added");
}
}
function processForm(btn) {
if (btn._name == "clear") {
borrowerLast = "";
borrowerFirst = "";
borrowerMiddle = "";
borrowerSSN = "";
} else if (btn._name == "submit") {
formData = new LoadVars();
formData.blname = borrowerLast;
formData.bfname = borrowerFirst;
formData.bmname = borrowerMiddle;
formData.bssn = borrowerSSN;
formData.action = "add";
formData.sendAndLoad(dataURL+"guestbook.php", formData);
formData.onLoad = showResult;
}
}

FLV Crazy?
I am trying to create a FLV player that will play multiple files, but...

Code:
import mx.video.*;
player.contentPath = "add1.flv";
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
if (player.contentPath == "add1.flv") {
player.play("movie1.flv");
} else if (player.contentPath == "movie.flv") {
player.play("add.flv");
}
};
player.addEventListener("complete", listenerObject);
When I try with this code, it plays the first FLV (add1) perfect, but when it is about to load the second FLV (movie1) it plays for about 1 sec. and then jumps to add1 again, and it won't play that either, and then it all f.... up... Can somebody tell me whats going wrong!?!

At ease

I made a contact form in flash and what I wasnt to do is validate that the fields are filled in. I found a number of ways to do it, but none work. I found one for my email field and that works perfect its
if (!email.length || email.indexOf("@") == -1 || email.indexOf(".") == -1) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow('invalidemail.html','redeem Win','408','150','yes')");

Now, For my other boxws the submit button starts with this
on (release) {
if (fullname.text == null || fullname.text == "") {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow('invalidname.html','redeemW in','408','150','yes')");

Then Have and else if then the email validation. The meathod above opens the invalid name file every time, evin if you enter something. I've also tried. if (!fullname.length == 0), that didn't work. I found numerous tutorials that used if (!fullname eq "") , that didn't work either. I've tried a ton of different versions of all of these. but none work! I dodn't know what to do. Please help me. I will provide the .fla file if anybody needs to take a peek at it.

Thanks so much

Going Crazy, Please Help :(
Hi,

i am really going crazy figuring this out. It's such a simple program and yet there is something not working the way it should, and i don't find it... i've been looking at it for hours, trying different approaches but i never works the way it should...

So here's the code :

ActionScript Code:
stop();
trace ("begin");
var size:Number = 30;
zoomy_mc._xscale = size;
zoomy_mc._yscale = size;
var smallerBool:Boolean = false;
var biggerBool:Boolean = false;
var bigInterval;
var smallInterval;

zoomy_mc.onRollOver = function()
{
trace ("rollOver");
if (smallerBool)
{
smallerBool = false;
clearInterval (smallInterval);
}
if (size < 100)
{
biggerBool = true;
bigInterval = setInterval (bigger, 10);
}
}

zoomy_mc.onRollOut = function()
{
trace ("rollOut");
if (biggerBool)
{
biggerBool = false;
clearInterval (bigInterval);
}
if (size > 30)
{
smallerBool = true;
smallInterval = setInterval (smaller, 10);
}
}

function bigger()
{
trace ("function bigger, size = " + size);
if (size<100)
{
size++;
zoomy_mc._xscale = size;
zoomy_mc._yscale = size;

}

else if (size == 100)
{
clearInterval (bigInterval);
gotoAndPlay ("ft");
}
}

function smaller()
{
trace ("function smaller, size = " + size);
if (size>30)
{
size--;
zoomy_mc._xscale = size;
zoomy_mc._yscale = size;

}

else if (size == 30)
{
clearInterval (smallInterval);
gotoAndStop ("wait");
}
}

so i have a movie clip that contains another movie clip (zoomy_mc) which is just a picture that i want to zoom in and out. The idea is that when you move your mouse over it, it starts growing and when you roll out agian, it shrinks back to its original value. The program works fine as long as i simply move my mouse over the clip, and hold it there until it's at its maximum size.
Then, the jump to "ft" is made like it should be.
BUT, when i move my mouse over and out a few times, it still shrinks and grows like it should do, but when i reacht the maximum size of 100, the jump to "ft" is not made. This is the code on ft :

ActionScript Code:
trace ("FT");
zoomy_mc._xscale = 100;
zoomy_mc._yscale = 100;

stop();

i can see that the jump isn't made because normally ft should trace "ft" , which doesn't happen in the latter case.

Another question that i was wondering : if you "gotoAndPlay" to a certain frame, and that frame contains a "stop();" then appearently this stop is ignored??? I know that i could use gotoAndStop instead, but i was still wondering howcome it ignores the 'stop()' if you enter a frame with gotoAndPlay. Seems strange!

Anybody help please!!
thx!

edit : oh yeah i should add that this code is on a frame labelled "wait". Doesn't really soud logical but it's just an inheritance from an other approach that i tried, but i left it like that because it doesn't really matter to the problem

Are These Crazy Or What?
Hi
I'm getting pissed off from these, this is the second e-mail I receive, here's the e-mail :

" Hi,
Developing educational software for my students. I'm then looking for two kind of freelancers who just want to make extra money :
actionscript programmers
illustrators
I â€“ Actionscript programmers :
I need programmers for two purposes :
to write as codes for news quizzes, mainly mathematical ones on which I'm working currently.
to modify the existing quizzes, aesthetic appearance or replacing as1 code by the as2 one.
The job consists on small projects, which will be handled one after another.
II â€“ Illustrators
For the course material, I need illustrations, mainly cartoons backgrounds (nature scenes) and characters (animal, human etc..).
I'm looking for people who will accept a lower rate payment that is between , as I will pay from my pocket. Between 5 â€“ 15 $ according to the project.
If you are interested, please give me a follow up. I have found your address at actionscript.org.
The payment will be made mainly by paypal or Western Union for freelancers living in countries where there is no paypal payment. But in this case, the money transfer fees will be at freelancer's charge..
NB : Each project will be put on auction and the cheapest quote and faster delivery will be chosen.
The money will be sent only after the work is accepted (SWF)."

Are these fuckers crazy or what? Cheapest and fastest!?!? 5-15 $ per project?!!?!? Auction?!?!? Has someone else received such an e-mail? I thought that such way of looking for a freelancer was illegal, am I right?

Im Going Crazy...plz Help Me
hello

Can someone recommend a tutorial that teaches me the basics in a flash site.
Or a simple template.

I want to make something minimal like this http://www.kentlyons.com/

And a question

this opens another .swf file

on (rollover) {
_root.contents.loadMovie("whatever.swf");
}

and this opens a movie file already within the .fla file with the instance name
whatever?

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("whatever");
}

The kirupa full flash site tutorial just didnt do enough for me

Does a flash site have to just be one .fla/.swf file?
Or is it possible to use several .swf files and link them with :

on (rollover/release) {
_root.contents.loadMovie("whatever.swf");
}

If someone can tell me/teach me something that helps me understand the basics. I would be really happy.

Simon

I found numerous tutorials that used if (!fullname eq "") , that didn't work either. I've tried a ton of different versions of all of these. but none work! I dodn't know what to do. Please help me. I will provide the .fla file if anybody needs to take a peek at it.

Thanks so much

MP3 Crazy
I have made an MP3 Player driven by XML and everything works fine and dandy, previous button, next, stop play volume all that works great.

I was interested in playing with the idea of having icons and on (release) would load a specific track from the XML instead of having just play, next, prev. Can anyone hit me with a tutorial on grabbing a selected item from XML instead of just the next, previous ect... Thanks in advance.

Could I do it by tracking the begining of what track its on and has played and then subtracting or adding item? Or what would be the best way? Ill be back fitten to read and search on this. anyone please hit me with any knowledge on selecting a predetermined item from XML and loading.

Help Me I Am Going Crazy
hey friends

i am trying to make a game similar to diner dash on flash

but there seems to be some problems.

in some code on the frames does not seem to work as expected.

the flash seems to be skippin some code.

#include "mc_tween2.as"

var flip:Boolean=false;
t1.onRelease=function(){
trace(jenny._x+":"+jenny._y);
moveTo(281,206);
}

t2.onRelease=function(){
moveTo(531,206);
}

t3.onRelease=function(){
moveTo(281,326);
}

t4.onRelease=function(){
moveTo(531,326);
}

checkPos=function(posx:Number,posy:Number){
if((posx==281&&posy==206)||(posx==531&&posy==206)| |(posx==281&&posy==326)||(posx==531&&posy==326)){
jenny.gotoAndStop("jennyfrontstill");
}
}

moveTo=function(posx:Number,posy:Number){
var curx=Math.round(jenny._x);
var cury=Math.round(jenny._y);
posx=Math.round(posx);
posy=Math.round(posy);
trace(curx+":"+cury+";"+posx+":"+posy);
if(curx==posx&&cury==posy){
jenny.gotoAndStop("jennyfrontstill");
trace("a");
return;
}

if(cury==posy){
trace("b");
jenny.gotoAndPlay("jennyside");
if(curx>posx){
if(jenny._xscale>0){
trace(jenny._xscale);
jenny._xscale*=-1;
}
}else if(jenny._xscale<0)
jenny._xscale*=-1;
jenny.xSlideTo(posx,.7,"linear",0,function(){});
}else if(curx==406){
trace("c");
if(cury>posy)
jenny.gotoAndPlay("jennyback");
else
jenny.gotoAndPlay("jennyfront");//This code is skipping randomly
jenny.ySlideTo(posy,.7,"linear",0,function(){moveT o(posx,posy);});
}else{
trace("d "+jenny._x+":"+curx);
jenny.gotoAndPlay("jennyside");
if(curx>406){
if(jenny._xscale>0)
jenny._xscale*=-1;
}else if(jenny._xscale<0)
jenny._xscale*=-1;

jenny.xSlideTo(406,.7,"linear",0,function(){moveTo (posx,posy);});
}
trace("end");
}

this.onEnterFrame=function(){
checkPos(jenny._x,jenny._y);
}

Please tell what i am doing wrong

Please HELP. I'm Getting Crazy Oon This One
HI
I really need some help here
I have this problem and can't get it resolved. Tried several approaches but none of them are working
I have a customer who has a pretty huge swf file already done by another guy
Now he wants me to create a swf file which resides on his main page and starts loading the big swf file in the background. The swf needs to show percentage and reminding level
I have found a website who has something similar http://www.fredabeles.com/welcome.asp there you can see the flashloader at the right and when you click on it a new window opens and the main file starts

I have no problem creating this loader with percentage etc. but somehow he shows only the size of his own and when i click on it the big file starts loading

What do I do wrong

Please help

Going CRAZY
Okay, here's the deal.. I have my flash movie:

Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var mc = this;

function goto() {

if (ExternalInterface.available) {

var url = ExternalInterface.call('getUrl');
switch(url) {
case "test":
gotoAndPlay(20);
break;

case "test1":
gotoAndPlay(45);
break;
}

} else {
trace('CAN NOT TALK TO BROWSER');
}
}

function isContainerReady():Boolean
{
var result:Boolean = ExternalInterface.call("isReady");
return result;
}

goto();

ExternalInterface.addCallback("parseUrl", goto);

mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handleClick);
function handleClick(e) {
ExternalInterface.call('clicked','test');
goto();
}

mc.stop();
Then I have my HTML

HTML Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Flash / SEO</title>
<script type="text/javascript">

function clicked(d) {
window.location.hash = d.toString();
}

function getUrl() {
return window.location.hash.replace('#','');
}

</script>
</head>
<body>

<object id="flashObject" width="300" height="200">
<param name="movie" value="as.swf.swf">
<embed id="flashObject" allowScripAccess="sameDomain" width="300" height="200" src="as.swf" border="2" />
</object>
</body>
</html>
And that is SUPPOSE to, when they click on the button call a javascript function which changes the url to ...#test. Then the flash calls another javascript function to read the url, it basically parses the hash ( #... ) and then goes to the appropriate keyframe, or starts with Key Frame1.

This works perfectly in Firefox, Safari, Etc.. try it out:
http://standingdog.com/clients/stoneleigh/Flash/
and http://standingdog.com/clients/stoneleigh/Flash/#test

Basically the flash movie reads the url and goes to the appropriate section in the flash movie. Or when you click the button it changes the url and starts step 1.

WHY DOESN'T THIS WORK WITH IE!? lol.. I am going insane... Any feedback would be appreciated.

*UPDATE* I think it has something to do with the js functions returning null maybe? The js functions ARE being called in IE, just nothing is happening back in the Action Script.. how can i debug this?

This Is Crazy
Hi guys, I have a problem, i hope someone could figure it out.
I have 3 mclips with fix x and y positions (mclip1 at the left and up, mclip2 at the middle and down, mclip3 at the right and up), when you press a button to move to the right, mclip1 moves to the middle, mclip2 moves to the right and mclip3 moves to the left. Something similar happens when you press the "movetoleft" button but the clips moves the other way round. To make this clips move, i first put an mclip1.onEnterframe... mclip2.onEnterframe... mclip3.onEnterFrame..., but due to an embed font and an image and some other things, this was kindda slow, so i tried to put all the actions only in mclip1.onEnterFrame... the thing worked perfectly and fast and nice, etc, but only when i press only to move to the right or only to move to the left, but when i pressed to move to the right and then to the left... it doesn't work properly!!! I can't understand why could happen this.
To have an idea of what is happening, i made it simplier (without the images, embed fonts, etc). This is the Slow but working way and this is the fast but not working properly way . The fast but not working properly way has the "slow" code on the left button and the "fast" code on the right button. You may have a look at the fla file. I cannot uploaded to internet, so anyone wanting to help and who want to have a look at it, please tell me and i'll send it to you.
Thanks to anyone how could help me!

[AS] Another IE Bug Or Am I Getting Crazy?
Can someone detect why this doesn´t work on IE?

ActionScript Code:
stop();
Stage.scaleMode = "noscale";
Stage.align = "TL";
Stage.showMenu = false;
//
var lines:MovieClip = this.lines_mc;
//
var imageHolder:MovieClip = this.imageHolder_mc;
var container:MovieClip = imageHolder.createEmptyMovieClip("container", imageHolder.getNextHighestDepth());
//
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcLoader.addListener(this);
mcLoader.loadClip("images/pic2.jpg", container);
function onLoadInit(mc:MovieClip) {
//trace("onLoadInit: " + mc);
startPosition();
}
//
function startPosition():Void {
lines._width = Stage.width;
lines._height = Stage.height;
newSize(container);
newPos = getNewPosition(container);
container._x = newPos.x;
container._y = newPos.y;
}
//
var stageListener = {};
Stage.addListener(stageListener);
stageListener.onResize = function():Void {
startPosition();
};
//
function newSize(mc):Void {
var actualWidth:Number = mc._width;
var actualHeight:Number = mc._height;
var divisor:Number = actualWidth / actualHeight;
//trace(divisor);
//
if (divisor <= 1) {
mc._height = Stage.height;
mc._width = mc._height * divisor;
} else {
mc._width = Stage.width;
mc._height = mc._width / divisor;
}
}
//
function getNewPosition(mc) {
var newX:Number = Math.floor((Stage.width - mc._width) / 2);
var newY:Number = Math.floor((Stage.height - mc._height) / 2);
return {x:newX, y:newY};
}

Am i getting crazy?

Im Going Crazy...
hello

Can someone recommend a tutorial that teaches me the basics in a flash site.
Or a simple template.

I want to make something minimal like this http://www.kentlyons.com/

And a question

this opens another .swf file

on (rollover) {
_root.contents.loadMovie("whatever.swf");
}

and this opens a movie file already within the .fla file with the instance name
whatever?

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("whatever");
}

The kirupa full flash site tutorial just didnt do enough for me

Does a flash site have to just be one .fla/.swf file?
Or is it possible to use several .swf files and link them with :

on (rollover/release) {
_root.contents.loadMovie("whatever.swf");
}

If someone can tell me/teach me something that helps me understand the basics. I would be really happy.
