Wow I Am Lost


I just got flash mx about 5 days ago. I have been working on a game. I have made some of the menus and stuff. I have a couple ?s:

1. I am not even close to done and the file is 4mb! Help!

2. I have a web site (www.airsoft1.bravehost.com) and I want to put my game on it. How do I do this?

3. I get lost when I try to read action script stuff. I need help. The game is about airsoft (like paintball but with bb guns). I want to have a shop where you buy stuff with your money. I tried to do the thing where you click the item and it subtracts the amount from your $$ ( I used the score tutorial) ,but how do I stop it from letting you buy something when you dont have enough money? (DO you use something like if root.money >/= 20 then - 20 (if the item is $20).

4. It would really help if I knew how to let you guys see the file( I tried to attach it but it is 4mb and it has been trying to post this message for an hour {56k}).


THANKS -I am lost

Im Lost A Little... No, I Lied. Im Totally Lost
Ok... I have been making flash movies for quite some time and never tried to learn actionscript or any of that mumbo jumbo.

Heres the deal; I need to learn how to make a site in flash. Basically what I need to learn to do is how to make pages link together, Do you just make different scenes, or what is the best way of taking that on? Then do you just link it with get_url ... I understand how to integrate actionscript but "NO" clue on what ones to use or anything. PLEASE HELP... Thanks a ton

Hi All,

I was reading this article in Macromedia:
http://www.macromedia.com/desdev/mx/...o_lock_14.html

and got confused along the way, Just want to ask regarding this syntax below:


compareOps == allMountingOps[i].lookUp()

What does ".lookUp()" represent? is it a custom function scoped within the array allMountingOps[i] ?

Can you help me out by at least giving me an overview on how this works?

Thanks a Bunch!
Butch

I'm More Then Lost.
I'm lost. I am trying for hours to find a problem, without any luck.
In the search for this, I came across this, and it might cause the problem.

I have two files, an old one (done in FLash MX) and a new one, done in FLash MX2004.

In FlashMX2004, I've opened the old file. Then I copied the textfields that cause the problem. In this file the textfields do exactly what they are supposed to do.

So I copied them, including the actions, to a new file. So they should be exactly identical, I thoughed. But they are not.

In the old file, the debug/list objects looks like this:


Code:

Level #0: Frame=1
Movie Clip: Frame=1 Target="_level0.instance1"
Shape:
Text:
Text:
Edit Text: Target="_level0.instance2" Variable=_level0.LLIDcheck Visible=true Text = "
Edit Text: Target="_level0.instance3" Variable=_level0.SWFIDcheck Visible=true Text = "
Edit Text: Target="_level0.instance4" Variable= Visible=true Text = old"


In the new file, the debug list objects looks like this:


Code:
Level #0: Frame=1
Movie Clip: Frame=1 Target="_level0.instance1"
Shape:
Text:
Text:
Edit Text: Target="_level0.instance2" Variable=_level0.LLIDcheck Visible=true Text = undefined"
Edit Text: Target="_level0.instance3" Variable=_level0.SWFIDcheck Visible=true Text = undefined"
Edit Text: Target="_level0.instance4" Variable= Visible=true Text = new"


I've repeated the copy/paste numerous times, thinking I made a mistake.

Can anyone please tell me why that "undefined" is there, and only in the new file? If I replace the textbox by a newly made instead of copied I get the same result.

script in both files (this swf is loaded into another swf, and that one holds the variables. And strangely enough, I've copied and pasted this quite a few times allready, it never went wrong, uptill now, I yust can't find out what's different this time):


Code:
SWFIDcheck = _level0.basket.SWFID;
LLIDcheck = _level0.basket.LLID;


Thanks,

Making a movie clip copy play at certain times.
What happens is the movie clip does not leave the designated spot and travel to the other side, I was wondering if there would be a way to time each copy, so that like every 2 secs it will reproduce a copy, not just all at once. I hope I explained this well enough to undrstand.
--------------CODE--------------------
onClipEvent (load) {
maxLaser = 6;
depthCount = 1;
_root.laserTwo._visible = 1;
laserCount = 1;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (laserCount<=maxLaser){
laserCounter++;
_root.laserTwo.duplicateMovieClip("laserTwo"+depth Count, depthCount);
_root["laserTwo"+depthCount]._visible = true;
depthCount++;
}
if (depthCount>maxLaser) {
depthCount = 1;
}
}

I Lost Everything, All My .fla's
Hey all, I need help in a bad way. I'm recovering from a bad crash where I had to boot from the windows CD and install windows again cuz of a lot of corrupt/missing files. In the process I lost all My Documents and more importantly, a web projects folder which had all my work

I was recently updating my website too, which is a huge kick in the nuts.

www.toddbeaz.com

is there ANYway to retreive an .fla from the .swf pulled from the site? Or does anyone know if I can somehow recover lost files due to the windows installating overwriting everything? I would have to start from scratch again, which sucks.

Thanks
Todd

Im Lost
ok i was wondering if there is a way to load a whole folder of pics into flash and place them all in different frames. I tried xml to load the pictures into an empty movieClip for each of them, but that seems to make the main movie very glitchy and tends to skip around quite a bit. I have 36 photos i want to control with a mouse drag on the main movieClip. the problem with xml is i cant get it to load into other frames inside that main mc only on frame one. The way i got around that was to make the main mc 24 frames long and put the 36 empty movieClips all in so they all streatched the 24 frames. then on an actions layer with 24 keyframes i had each frame say witch mc's are visible. However, this makes the main movie very jittery. The problem with all the photoslide shows i have found is that they have time between each photo i need it to be instant. I really may need to just toss them all into the movie on their respective frames....Any help or point in a better direction is appreciated

I'm Lost....please Help
Hello,

I'm a new users at this forum and relatively new to Flash 2004 too....

I'm troubled with arrays/text and here's my problem -
I have two sets of arrays in my code. What I want to do is sew them together in such a way that when one is called/activated the 2nd set of array with the same digit is also displayed.

I have the design array working fine but the skill array does not show or display! Here's my coded ......

// create an array for attaching new designs on our timeline
design = new Array(4);
design[0] = "design0";
design[1] = "design1";
design[2] = "design2";
design[3] = "design3";

skill = new Array(4);
skill[0] = "description0";
skill[1] = "description1";
skill[2] = "description2";
skill[3] = "description3";

max = design.length;
itemDepth = 1;

for (i=0; i<max; i++) {
// attach new item
content_mc.attachMovie("design"+i, "design_"+i, itemDepth);
curItem = content_mc["design_"+i];

content_txt.createEmptyMovieClip("conTex", 1);
content_txt.createTextField("contText"+i, 1, 517.6, 26.5, 311.2, 183.5);
content_txt["conText"+i].multiline = true;
content_txt["conText"+i].text = skill[i];

// put the MC in an array
design[i] = curItem; .........................}

What am I doing wrong that the text does not display?

hi

i'm having a problem understanding and creating the attached movie. there are two bars (horizontal and vertical) that should control the dots movie clip. what I want to happen is when move the horizontal bar to the right the entire dots movie clip moves to the upper right corner; when move the horizontal bar to the left, the dots movie clip moves back to its original position. for the vertical bar, I want each small circles in the dots movie clip to move away from each other when the vertical bar moves down.

for some reason.. I get lost in the way and I wonder if you can help me out. Thank you very much.

I'm Lost...
I have been given a Flash project to take over, and I'm learning this as I go. I am completely stumped, however. I cannot for the life of me figure out how this thing even runs.

It's really simple. A single nested window contains nothing more than a title bar and a top-menu. Lots of screens and the rest of the menu are created at runtime though a series of action scripts.

What I can't figure out is how it gets started. There is NO action script in the .fla. Not a single line. The AS files are not part of the project - there IS no project. just a bunch of AS files and an FLA.

What tells the project to run my EventDesktop.AS file at startup?

Lost Flv
I made a swf clip a few months back and unfortunately my flv file was lost to file corruption. The swf is protected and now I cannot edit or make any changes.

Lost...AS3
i have an instance of UIloader Component (fl.containers.UILoader), instantiated as loaderOne.
i also have an instance of UIloader Component (fl.containers.UILoader), instantiated as thumbLoader.
thumbloader auto loads a swf containing some button components, that file is named thumbSwf.swf
My Goal is to have those buttons load some images into loaderOne.
Both of these loaders are on the stage.
Using AS3, I cannot seem to find the correct path to do this?

It works fine if I have those same button components directly on the stage, but I loose communication with the above scenerio.

many thanks for any help on this.

ActionScript Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("preloader", 1000);this.createEmptyMovieClip("container", 1001);container._x = 5 ;container._y = 28 ;container._visible = false;preloader.onEnterFrame = function() {    var l = container.getBytesLoaded();    var t = container.getBytesTotal();    var getPercent = l/t;    //loadText = Math.round(getPercent*100)+"%";    loadBar._width = getPercent*299;    if (l>0 && l>=t) {        container._visible = 1;        delete this.onEnterFrame;    }};button1.onPress = function() {    container.loadMovie("image1.jpg");};button2.onPress = function() {    container.loadMovie("image2.jpg");};

Lost In XML
Hey, I've been following the Introduction to XML article and started playing around with the Squirrel Finder example, my aim was to make an XML menu which would simply load a URL in a new window. This would (hopefully) allow me to add downloads to my site through XML. I thought I'd clocked it and finally understood what was going on, but I seem to have lost and confused myself with it. Now I'm really scratching my head, cause I can't see what's wrong.

I changed the tutorial example to use attributes instead of nodes, and found things working out quite nicely, but I just noticed I'm having issues with my URLs.

For some strange reason, no matter which button I click on, I always get sent to the last URL that was loaded from the XML file, instead of the correct one. I'm hoping someone can help, because I've been working through this for the best part of a day and I'm starting to lose hope.

Here's the code:


Code:
// define basic variables for setting up the menu
var item_spacing = 54; // how far menu items are spaced veritcally
var item_count = 0; // counts menu items as they are added from the XML

// CreateMenu creates a menu based on the XML object passed.
// It loops through all the items with a for loop adding clips to the menu_mc
// movieclip on the timeline, defining the appropriate text where needed
function CreateMenu(menu_xml){
// start with the first item in the XML
var items = menu_xml.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;
for (var i=0; i<items.length; i++) {
if (items[i].attributes.type == "client_checkup") {
// create variables for our elements
var client = items[i].attributes.client;
var title = items[i].attributes.title;
var urls = items[i].attributes.urls;

var item_mc = menu_mc.attachMovie("menu_item","item"+item_count, item_count);
item_mc._y = item_count * item_spacing;
item_count++;

item_mc.client.text = items[i].attributes.client;
item_mc.title.text = items[i].attributes.title;

// set the onRelease of the item button to the DisplayInfo function
item_mc.main_btn.onRelease = function(){
getURL(urls, "_blank");
}
}
}
}

// manage XML
// create new XML object instance, remembering to ignore white space
var test_xml = new XML();
test_xml.ignoreWhite = true;

// define an onLoad to create our location menu when the XML has successfully loaded.
test_xml.onLoad = function(success){
if (success) CreateMenu(this);
else trace("Error loading XML file"); // no success? trace error (wont be seen on web)
}

// load the xml file!
test_xml.load("test.xml");
Thanks in advance to anyone that can shed some light on my error, I can only assume it's obvious as I thought it was all working earlier today.

Lost In AS3
Hello there everybody first of all!
i am a graphic designer and since yesterday i developed not-so-complex flash websites using ActionScript 2.0..you can see my websites here ( I know it's not updated since last year but it's a stand-by project ). Now it's time for me to reach a decision: keeping on developing AS2 websites or learning the new AS3 language. For many reasons i thought that learning AS3 would be more interesting developing my own site entirely in AS3.
I saw this site and i was wondering what kind of AS3 knowledge i will need to have to reach that result? i mean, anyone could focus me on what kind of knowledge i will need to acquire to develop that kind of site structure, functionalities? ( fullscreen navigation, liquid GUI, XML flashlightbox-like image gallery, etc).
I digged a little bit into the AS3 references, tutorials on the internet and i was a little bit lost about the new coding concept behind AS3 and i don't know where to start to develop an entire AS3 project. it looks so complex to me! Any suggestions please?

I Am Lost///
i have a thumbnail strip made randomly. and i want the thumnails to change in fade also randomly. my problem is that the thumbnail changes before the fade.
i created a function for each thumbnail like this:
Code:
function pic0() {
i = random(j);
this.createEmptyMovieClip("targetClip0", 1);
targetClip0._x = 22;
targetClip0._y = 13;
this.targetClip0.attachMovie("pic"+i, "pic", 1);
}
my fadeout function is called from a clip that runs as a timer and goes to a random frame in the timer where i have a function that sends a parameter to the fadeout function that looks like this:

Code:
function fadeOut(param) {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (_root["targetClip"+param]._alpha>0) {
_root["targetClip"+param]._alpha -= 10;
}
};
_root["picB"+param]();
}
the _root["picB"+param]();is suppose to create the thumbnail that is suppose to exchange the first one.
which looks like this:

Code:
function picB0() {

i = random(j);
this.createEmptyMovieClip("targetClipB0", 6);
targetClipB0._x = 32;
targetClipB0._y = 23;
this.targetClipB0.attachMovie("pic"+i, "pic", 6);
fadeIn(0);
}
my fadeIn function looks like this:
Code:
function fadeIn(param) {

this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (_root["targetClipB"+param]._alpha<100) {
_root["targetClipB"+param]._alpha += 5;
}
};
_root["pic"+param]();
}
i tried many things i know that what i see is only the targetClipB

I have this code and it sits in the main movie to load three images dynamically. Thing is, i have 20+ buttons all needing to load the same layout with different images. At the moment i have the buttons take you to a new frame with the same code, just altering the image destination.

Is there a better way to do this as this is gunna load 20+ images on the initial loading... aint it.

Told u i was lost

//initialize variables and properties
square._alpha = 0;
whichPic = 1;
//initiate change to new image when buttons are clicked
next.onPress = function() {
if (whichPic<3 && !fadeIn && !fadeOut) {
fadeOut = true;
whichpic++;
input = whichPic;
}
};
back.onPress = function() {
if (whichPic>1 && !fadeIn && !fadeOut) {
fadeOut = true;
whichpic--;
input = whichPic;
}
};
_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
// when a new Photo is selected, fade out, load new image, and fade in
if (square._alpha>10 && fadeOut) {
square._alpha -= 10;
}
if (square._alpha<10) {
loadMovie("../images/image"+whichPic+".jpg", "square");
fadeOut = false;
fadeIn = true;
}
if (square._alpha<100 && fadeIn && !fadeOut) {
square._alpha += 10;
} else {
fadeIn = false;
}
// limit input field
if (input>3) {

So Lost :)
Hey all;

I'm going to try to do a site for a small company, and they've asked me to put their catalogue up online.
They want me to have small thumbnails of their products on a page, and when they're moused-over, have a small Flash popup showing pricing, availabilty, etc about the product from a database.
I've been researching and researching on how to do this, and can't find a good resource or tutorial...
So far, all I've come up with is to make a single reusable flash movie, and to populate a page with several instances of the same movie, kind of like an imaege gallery.
The movie would accept input variables (which would be an image URL, the price, the availability, etc) that I would feed into it from a server-side script.

Is this a silly way to do this? Is there a better way? Can someone recommend a link or resource??


Thanks !

Tell Target? I'm Lost
I have a movie clip called "radio" in my main movie, on entering frame 1 of "radio" an external movie called "song1" is loaded containing an mp3. When this mp3 has finished playing, I want to tell "radio" to goto and play frame 2 (which will load the next external movie "song2").

Anyone know the code?

Retrieving Lost Fla.
Greetings,

I built a cool flash menu for my site but some of the contents have changed.
The problem is that when I reformatted my harddrive I put all of my flash stuff onto a cd rom, after reformatting I found that the cd was corrupt and have lost the fla for the menu.
I do however have a copy of the swf file that I downloaded from my site using an ftp program.
Is there any way to turn it into a fla file or unlock what I did to create it?

Lost Windows ?
Hello,
Can anyone help me into finding the actionscript window and the movie explorer windows. I've done something that has made them disapear.

When I press the icons at the bottom right of the screen nothing happens.

I know this may sound like a joke question, but it isn't, it's my first week on Flash 5 so maybe it's something obvious.

Maybe it's just because it's getting late!

Navigationally Lost
my problem is this. i have a navigation that has four objects, let's say squares, positioned something like this :: but of course much bigger. these four squares move together in a counter clockwise motion. this motion will be constant, and what i am wanting is for the motion to stop when the user's mouse becomes positioned over one of the buttons. now, if the user clicks on that button, i need the other buttons to fade out and the button selected to move from that position and go to a defined point on the page.

now, if my buttons didn't slowly rotate, i would have no problem because i would know where the button was moving from and i could have it just load another predefined movie. but, since i cannot determine the location that the button will be pressed, i need some heavy duty actionscript that i am unaware of how to do.

please, any insite would be greatly apprectiated.
thank you dearly for your time, tim.
