Please Help Me Out, Files Included...
Hi there,
I've asked this question a couple of times but I haven't got much useful response. This time I've reconstructed my situation for you to look at.
Here is the problem swf
In the zip file you can find all the fla files.
So if you have done what is mentioned, then you see that the content jumps to the second 'frame'. So how can that function be reset to start on 'frame' 1 each time?
As I mentioned, this is a reconstructed situation, the real thing is here:
Childrens farm
The problem is in the stable section, and when leaving it, and returning.
So can someone please help me out? It's pretty frustrating, and I've tried almost everything i can think of...
Thank in advance !

When Are External Files Included?
when you have an external class .as file, like this:
package{
class
}
when will it be included in your .fla file? you don't have to include it urself, so how does flash know it has to include that file?
i dont understand in general the act of including .as files.
A Lot Of Code And Included Files
I have a movieclip named ready, that onRelease I want some files to be included.
If the included files have a lot of code it doesn´t work, the button becomes inactive.
if the first included file has a lot of code and the counter=2 it doesn´t work. I assumed that the included files could have a lot of code because only one option is possible at time. I mean if counter=2, the option counter=1 is of no interest and it shouldn´t matter how much code counter1.as has.
Code:
ready.onRelease = function(){
if (counter==1 ){
#include "counter1.as"
}else if (counter==2 ){
#include "counter2.as"
}
}
First I tried to have all code in one frame without any included files but when that didn´t work I tried with the included files, now when that doesn´t work either, what to do if you have much code???
I have worked with this for a week now.
Anyone Know How To Achieve This, Unfortunately Files Not Included :(
Hi all, does anyone know how I can achieve this effect, unfortuntely the include file has not been supplied in the download.
I am after the bounce effect upwards, no scale but the bounce.
I have looked at the physics, but frankly find it far to hard to narrrow it all down.
Thanks for any tips or help

XML Menu Source Files Included
Hi flashers
Can anyone please help with this; its so close to being
completed. Click the link below to download the source files and explanations
http://www.rootlevel.co.uk/menu.zip
I think this is where my problem lies; [this sets the visibilty of the menu to true if mouse is over it and false if its not, well that's what im trying to do, it's just the _y values that are causing the trouble]
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
xMouse = Math.floor(_root._xmouse);
yMouse = Math.floor(_root._ymouse);
distance = _root["button"+_root.nButtons]._y-_y;
if (xMouse<_x || xMouse>(_x+_width) || yMouse<_y || yMouse>(_y+(distance+_root["button"+_root.nButtons]._height))) {
for (j=1; j<=_root.nButtons; j++) {
_root["button"+j]._visible = false;
}
}
}
onClipEvent (mouseUp) {
if (!this.hitTest(xMouse, yMouse, true)) {
for (j=1; j<=_root.nButtons; j++) {
_root["button"+j]._visible = false;
}
}
}

In Desperate Need Of Help With Guestbook (files Included). Please
I've tried this, that and the other but can't seem to figure out what the heck is going wrong.
I save my .txt file as unicode, I then upload it, but if I download it again, it's back to ANSI and has screwed around with the contents by either filling the whole thing with squares and sometimes spreading everything out with a space between every character.
I made a correction so now it records the Danish letters Å Æ Ø in the .txt file but won't show them in the .swf even though I've embedded the font, and chosen one that has these characters.
I'm still learning with actionscript so I don't know where to start with something like this and I need some help ugently. The guestbook is online and I need some results soon, before another visitor leaves a message.
In the zipped file attached there is: guestbook.fla, guestbook.swf, guestbook.php, entry.txt and all guestbook entries (17-11-2004).txt
Unfortunately the entry.txt has been stuffed up, but the all guestbook entries (17-11-2004).txt file is how it's supposed to look.
Please, if one (or more) of you kind Flashkit souls wouldn't mind taking 2 seconds to have a look over these files and tell me which i I haven't dotted or which t I haven't crossed. Many many thanx in advance.
I'm even open to a whole new guestbook, if anyone know of a totally reliable one, which is just as simple (name/email/message/submit/view).
[F8] Audio Files Not Included In GetBytesTotal?
I have a movieclip containing two songs at approximately 3000kb each.
I also have a dynamic text field on the main stage monitoring the amount of bytes (should read approximately 6000000 bytes) however it's only reading 67 bytes. (the ammount of space the frames are taking up without taking into consideration the file size of the music being called to play in those frames)
does anyone know how to get the sound to be included? it's absolutely critical in making a preloaded for the audiofiles. without the correct ammount of bytes to load it'd be near impossible to make the loaded function correctly.
Is Possible To Make An Executable With FLV Files Included?

Zooming And Movement Restriction (files Included)
Lo people!
Ive just joined and ive already got a question for you
I am trying to make a picture (of a backgarden) be able to zoom in and out and move all around.
At the moment i can do all of the above but it needs 2 extra features. I want to restrict how far you can zoom in and out of the image. Ive tried loads of scripting but it just keeps going. I also want it to do this via the buttons, i know how to do it using the spacebar and shift key.
Secondly as you will notice, the image keeps moving until its left the stage. It goes beyond the boundaries of the mask. I want it to when say the left side meets the left side of the mask it will stop and not continue going to show the white background.
Ive tried scripts like:
on (press) {
if (_root.outside_xscale>100) {
_root.outside.zooming == 0;
}else{
_root.outside.zooming = -7;
}
}
Here are the files, im so nearly there, just need help with these 2 small things. Im open to any other scripts which may work!

Feature Story Rotation Help {files Included}
FILES:
http://209.160.13.39/dev/rotate_feature.zip
Hello all!,
I have attached a zip file with my current status on creating a Feature Story Rotator.
The effect I am trying to achieve can be viewed at http://www.gettyone.com.
There is a small navigation area which will change the entire image and story text when the user rollsover a particular menu item.
However, if the user does NOT interact, then each story will be cycled through every 5 seconds or so. Please refer to link provide above for functionality reference.
Currently:
I have most of the effect in place. However when the stories rotate from one to another they fade in from white. The main objective I am trying to accomplish is that the next story/mov fades in on top of the previous story/mov. Things start to get tricky when I need Flash to keep track of what is currently loaded and either 1.) What is the next story to load? 2.) What is the story the user requested to load on their mouseover interaction.
I am figuring this will involve swapping depths from one movie to another. Although I am not quite certain how www.gettyone.com has achieved this.
I look forward to any effort that could be given to this.
Thank you!

Cannot Use The Fla Files From The Tutorial
Hi,
I am a complete nubie. Last year I discovered a tutorial to create a flash slide show using an external xml file. It might have been kirupa's, but the fla file worked with Flash MX version 6. The tutorial Photo Gallery Using XML and Flash looks similar to the other tutorial.
I lost my .fla file when my hard drive failed as did my back ups. I cannot read the .fla files in the tutorial because I have an earlier version of flash (Flash MX 6). Does anyone know of a product that will allow me to view and save the MX 2004 fla as Flash 6?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Tutorial Zip Files?
While we are waiting in great anticipation for Lee's new and improved, I can only imagine in AS 3.0 and Flash CS3 & Flex & WPF & whatever other crazy thing he may be working with, does anyone know where we can go to get the zipped source files of his tutorials until then? The FLV's are great, but sometimes some good old reverse engineering is the best way to learn.
thanks!
Using The Tutorial Or Movie Files
Okay, so here's my question. I've been learning Flash 5 for a bit, know all the basics, have made animations, buttons, etc. with no problem. Now, I want to move on to learning how to make navigation, pop-ups, etc.
I had no idea how to use the free files that are offered on here and other sites, so by trial and error I figured out that you had to import the ".fla" text file into the library to use it. What I'm wondering is, what do I do next? To my brain, it's like a horrid puzzle of layers and frames that I don't know what to do with. The way I learn best is to have the complete movie, all in place so's I can take it apart and see how it works. But all I seem to get are the various movie clips, buttons and graphics in the library, and it seems that I'm supposed to put it all together. Does anyone know what I mean? Am I missing something obvious? I'm not dense, I've got good HTML, XHTML, CSS, etc. skills.
How do I use these files?
Help Downloading Tutorial Files
I'm new to both ActionScript.org and to Macromedia Flash MX. I have been reading the tutorials and attempting to follow their instructions, but would like to download the source (FLA) files to check my work against the tutorials' authors' work.
For some reason, when I attempt to open the source files in Flash MX, an error occurs that states "Unexpected file format." Can anyone offer a reason as to why Flash MX would refuse to open an FLA file?
I appreciate the help!

[MX04] Can't Find Tutorial Files
I am attempting to get started with Flash MX 2004. Using the getting started menu I run into a problem almost immediately.
Quote:
browse to <boot drive> Documents and Settings<username>Local SettingApplication Data Macromedia Flash MX 2004<language>ConfigurationHelpPanel HowDoI QuickTasksstart_files and double-click accessibility_start.fla
unfortunately, when following that path, there is no folder called flash MX. All I really need is the accessibility_start.fla file, however it is nowhere on my computer and as of right now I cannot find it on the web either.
Has anybody else had this problem and if so can you tell me where to find the file? If you have it would you be willing to email it to me?
Thanks
Can't Find Tutorial Files MX 2004
I'm trying to complete the Flash MX Tutorial on the Adobe website but can't seem to find the files that it requires. I have Studio MX 2004 and there is no Tutorials folder in my Macromedia/Flash folder. Does anyone know where I can download them? I'm specifically looking for view1.png, view2.png and view3.png, which are supposed to be located in the Assets folder.
Thanks!
Flash Tutorial Content Files: Where Are They?
I tried searching the forums about this first, but I kept getting some kind of Cold Fusion-related error...
I'm trying to take advantage of some downtime at work to finally learn how to use Flash. I'm watching the videos on AdobeTV, and the narrator has referred to apparently pre-existing files or folders a couple of times. Specifically, in "Getting Started: 07 Understanding Symbols" video, he refers to a file called "symbols.fla in the Chapter 2 folder".
I can't find this stuff. Anybody know where it is?? I'm using Flash CS4 on a PC (Vista 64-bit).
Thanks

Uploading Files Using FileReference Tutorial
I've done the tutorial "Uploading Files using FileReference" , and i think i did all good..the actionscript is this:
import flash.net.FileReference;
var progressBar:MovieClip;
var reference:FileReference = new FileReference();
var referenceListener:Object = {};
var scriptLocation:String = 'uploader.php';
var progressBarHeight:Number = 10;
var progressBarY:Number = 50;
var progressBarColor:Number = 0x66ccff;
uploadButton_mc._visible = false;
reference.addListener(referenceListener);
referenceListener.onSelect = activateUploadButton;
referenceListener.onProgress = updateProgress;
referenceListener.onComplete = restart;
referenceListener.onHTTPError = handleError;
referenceListener.onIOError = handleError;
referenceListener.onSecurityError = handleError;
chooseButton_mc.onRelease = choose;
uploadButton_mc.onRelease = uploadCurrent;
function activateUploadButton():Void {
display_txt.text = reference.name;
uploadButton_mc._visible = true;
}
function choose():Void {
reference.browse([{description:'All Files (*.*)', extension:'*.*'}]);
}
function handleError(errorName:String, detail:Object):Void {
restart();
if (arguments.length === 2) {
if (typeof detail === 'number') {
display_txt.text = 'HTTP Error #'+detail;
} else {
display_txt.text = 'Security Error: '+detail;
}
} else {
display_txt.text = 'IO Error';
}
}
function makeProgressBar(x:Number, y:Number):MovieClip {
var bar:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip('progressBar_mc', 0);
bar._visible = false;
bar.beginFill(progressBarColor);
bar.lineTo(Stage.width, 0);
bar.lineTo(Stage.width, progressBarHeight);
bar.lineTo(0, progressBarHeight);
bar.lineTo(0, 0);
bar.endFill();
bar._width = 0;
bar._visible = true;
bar._x = x;
bar._y = y;
return bar;
}
function restart():Void {
removeMovieClip(progressBar);
display_txt.text = '';
uploadButton_mc._visible = false;
chooseButton_mc._visible = true;
}
function updateProgress(fileReference:FileReference, bytesLoaded:Number, bytesTotal:Number):Void {
display_txt.text = fileReference.name+' - '+Math.ceil((bytesLoaded/bytesTotal)*100)+'%';
progressBar._width = Math.ceil(Stage.width*(bytesLoaded/bytesTotal));
}
function uploadCurrent():Void {
chooseButton_mc._visible = false;
progressBar = makeProgressBar(0, progressBarY);
reference.upload(scriptLocation);
}
And the uploader.php script is this:
<?php

Read / Write Text Files Tutorial?
Hi There--
This appears pretty basic, but I've been searching tutorials for a while and haven't been able to figure this out.
I'm on Flash MX. I want to make a simple form that my client can use that will write text to a text file.
I would like to read the text file into a dynamic text field. I would like to not make the text a variable because I'd like to use the same text as a server side include into a straight html file as well.
Perhaps the form could write two documents? One that has the variable and one that doesn't? Could it write an xml document that could be read by both the html page and the flash page?
I don't want the client to have to type the file more than once.
I'm also confused about whether I need to use PHP or XML or both.
This _has_ to be possible. I'm guessing that the reason that I haven't been able to find any tutorials on it is because it's so obvious to everybody else.
Any help will be greatly appreciated and you'll have terrific luck for a week if you do.
Thanks,
Lee
Tutorial Section....on Preloading Movie Files
in the intermediate section - tutorial #10
"Preloading Multiple Loaded Movies"
.... he has a main fla, then phase1.fla, and phase 2.fla
the main he uses to load the other two fla.... but I don't understand how it is working.
In phase.fla file, he has a check to see if "Scene 2" is loaded and if "true" goto _level0.nextframe();
but.... here's the thing....
_level0 means the root of the movie (main movie) right?
If so, how is it going to the next frame of "main.fla"?.... b/c
"_level0.nextframe()" .... well.. ... isn't going into it's root frame?
Meaning, it will go to the next frame of "phase 1.fla" and not the next frame of "main.fla"
...anyways....I'm totally confuse....
I'm trying to load up other movies (*.swf) within a movie and its not working right. It loads up the (*.swf) that I want but I is not showing the rest of the content of the main movie.
anyways.... if anyone can help me out, that would be great.

I MAY Have Found A Tutorial To Allow Cs3 Users To Run Batch Files
I know there has been a lot of problems with running local files but I recently found this tutorial that says you can do it: http://www.northcode.com/blog.php/20...C-Part-1-Proxy
It seems to have a lot of positive feedback even for CS3 users but I still cant get it working on my XP. Even his example download doesnt work.
I was just wondering if anyone else has tried this and succeeded as it will save people a lot of bother.
So has anyone got this working in CS3 with Windows XP?

Tutorial Needed - Loading And Controlling .swf Files
Hello,
I'm looking for a tutorial that explains how to create a container that loads .swf movies and has interactivity built into it that enables the user to control playback .(i.e. skipping to next .swf file, scrubbing through currently loaded .swf file, volume adjustment, etc.)
I've worked with projects like this before, but since they were built by someone else it's been difficult to understand how they set them up. I'd like to make one from scratch so that I understand all the elements that go into making it work.
thanks!!

Tutorial: Preloader And Transition For Dynamic Files

Tutorial: Preloader/transition/dynamic Files
Hello there
I am using a customised version of the preloader and transition for dynamic files to load a 30sec swf animation that I have made.
The preloader looks great and loads the animation.swf. The problem is that it starts playing before it has totally loaded - underneath the transition animation. When the preloader transition clip opens, the movie is already half way through.
I'm sure there is a bit of script that can stop it playing until it has totally loaded or that makes it start when the transition animation opens but I don't know how to do it. Please would you help me to do this?
ps. if you explain it like i'm a 5yr old that would help!
Thanks very much!

Preloader And Transition For Dynamic Files Tutorial
I have followed the tutorial and everything works great, in tutorial fla. When I try to apply the tutorial to a new fla, I cannot get the "opening" to work, the swf's are loading because when I click on a new button, I can see them briefly under the transition, but my transition won't open after load.
Its probably a stupid mistake, I don't know where it could be, I've scoured all the actionscript for typos, I would think it would be in the actions for the content mc, but now I'm just frustrated.
Thanks......

A Good Tutorial On Writing .as Files And Packages In 2.0

Claudio - Preloader And Transition For Dynamic Files Tutorial
Hi
I used the 'Preloader and Transition for Dynamic Files' Tutorial from the tutorials section
here is a link
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/p...transition.htm
and have to say, I learned soooo much from it, and encorporated it into my website
www.intotheether.net
I was wondering if you could tell me how to put a percentage preloader for each of the sections when they load. The heavier the .swf file you are loading, the longer it takes, and I've gotten comments about this saying they would like to know how long they have to wait until they see something.
I'd also appriciate any comments you may have for me about the use of this tutorial on my website.
Thanks so much

Preloader And Transition For Dynamic Files Tutorial Problem
Hey guys I'm having a little difficulty with this tutorial. The preloader works the first time and loads the initial external swf but despite having what I beleive to be the correct code for the buttons (and the correct names for teh files) I can't get my buttons to work.
Also for some reason I can't load the main swf into any browsers - it only half works in the standalone player. Lastly for external swfs do you have to specify the exact right coordinates for the swf to display or is there a way of coding it to figure this out on its own?
I'm going to include the main swf and my first external one. If anyone needs any more files let me know.

Claudio´s Tutorial Preloader And Transition For Dynamic Files
Hi, a newbie here...
Would like to know how to make the first animation loaded (in tute, profile.swf) to begin playing only AFTER the "transition" movie clip reachs the end. I tried a simple if, else statement, conditioning the swf for playing when bytes are totally loaded, but it plays before the transition movieclip reaches the "opening" labeled frame.
I found a thread (by manda) alike, but no answer at all.
Also, I´d like to control it on THIS swf, the other ones are looking good the way they are. Anyone could help?

I'm going to include the main swf and my first external one. If anyone needs any more files let me know.

Fading Grid Tutorial HELP TO LOAD FILES FROM EXTERNAL FILE
Hi there,
I've done the Fading grind tutorial from Voetsjoeba and it was well done.
But i'm trying to load the images from an external file, for example from an xml file, or other way that it was possible, but i'm not figuring out how...
I've added this line code into the AS, but it didn't work when i upload the file and try to access online:
Code:
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("image", 999);
for (i=1; i<11; i++) {
image.loadMovie("/Imagens/I"+random(i)+".jpg", i);
}
If some one could help me i'll be very glad!!
And sorry about my english...
Thanks in advance
see ya
