Flash :: Checkered Flag Waving

Waving Flag
Hi all,

Using Swish 2. Trying to insert a gif of the US Flag and have it wave. So far the effects applied to the flag do not work, as it reacts as a "stiff board". Is there some way to convert this gif so it will react in a more pliable manner?

Thanks in advance,

Chris

Does any one know of a good "Waving Flag" flash animation?

I've found a way to do it with the help of action script. The final solution is nice, but I'm looking for something more authentic!
The information can be found here:Waving Flag Thred

Dynamic American Flag Waving In The Wind
take a look this was done for an online banner ad for the west wing dvd set. where it appears half the size and at 20% opacity.

the entire flag and the up and down movement is create dynamically.
the movement on the edge is done with a tweened mask.

if you look at the code it is not optimized yet (cause i am a sloppy coder and i always go back and clean things up at a later date).

Checkered Boxes
The flash player is showing a white and gray checker board where an image should be. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling flash player as well as updating my browser. Flash is not working in either Firefox OR IE! I have tried a few online searches and dug around but can't find any information. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks for your time,
V.A.

Waving Banner
Can anyone show me how to create the illusion that something is waving in the wind. It could be like a flag, in my case I have an aircraft pulling a custom banner and I want the banner to have that type of effect. I know there is a way to do it in SWISH or using ANFY, but is there a way to do it just using flash? If there is a way could someone please direct me to a tutorial or step by step directions on how to proceed as right now I have no idea how to achieve this. Thanks in advance.

Help Waving String
Hi I've got the following actionscript which outputs my
string my_op one character at a time, but I want the string
to move across the screen in a sine wave motion?

any ideas?

my_op = "Hello there FLASH people";

// length of string my_op
my_length = my_op.length;

// Stage height
SH = (Stage.height)/2;
// movefrom
mover = 0;

// do loop
function WriteMe (x) {
i = 0;
space = x;
do {
createTextField("iName"+i,i,space,SH,200,100,20);
_root["iName" + i].text = my_op.charAt(i);
i++;
space = space + 20;
} while (i < my_length)
}

pls hlp

Waving Objects
Not sure if this is a physics question or actionscripting question.

Basically I have, for example, 5 boxes. These boxes are for design only and have no other function.

With these five boxes, I want to create a wave motion. Each lagging behind the next when the mouse rolls over. Further more, when the mouse rolls over the second box, I need the animation to start there and not from the first box. Same with 3 4 and 5.

Sounds simple eh? Welp, Im going to need 30 boxes fill my design and need an easier way to write the code, at the least.

Even moreso, I would like to have (but not necessary) the waves animation dependent of the speed of the mouse when it rolls over. Dependent on speed range from this to this gotoAndPlay this set of frames. This way depending on a slower speed of the rollover or faster speed, the wave waves less or more.

I'm not asking anyone to write the code for me, but if anyones seen some cool tutorials that I can check out that deals with this sort of thing, could you at least point me in the right direction?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!

Waving Grass
Hi - I'm trying to creat the effect of grass moving in the breeze - just a very subtle effect. I've tried importing the attached image, breaking it apart, and then using the envelope transformation tool, but I'm running into problems. It just doesn't tween right - it seems to keep the image from the last keyframe as well as show the transformed version on the next keyframe.

What is the best way to go about this? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Waving Line
Hi, i want to create waving line (like sin or cos) from point A to point B.

Waving Tentacle?
I've searched and searched and can't find much at all. Any ideas on the following:

I'm wanting to animate a cartoonish squid. The only frame by frame and/or tweening animation I care to do is for the head, face and two tentacles (his gesturing "arms")... for the rest of the tentacles (8) I'd like to have them just waving as if he's treading water. Just a basic (but somewhat smooth) wave looped within each tentacle mc. I don't care if it's tweened, frame by frame or actionscript driven (it's not for video output)... Anyway, I'm having a heck of a time finding any decent examples of a good "waving tentacle" and all my attempts at making it myself have been crap (too stiff, outline getting broken, etc.) Any ideas or examples out there on how to best achieve this?

Thanks in advance!

Waving Page Transition

[F8] Waving Line, Flagella Cilia
Hey all.

I am working on coding a waving line. The issue I am having is getting each segment movieclips Y position to be at the end of the previous segment with this line of code:

PHP Code:

segment[i]._y = newY+Math.cos(newR)*10;

This is the entire code in the first frame of an empty movieclip.

PHP Code:

/*
VARIABLES
*/
segTotal = 25;
segLength = 10;
rotationLimit = Math.random()*20+15;
rotationSpeed = Math.random()*.01;
rotationRate = Math.random()*.0001;
cycleStart = Math.random();
/*
CONSTRUCT
*/
segment = [];
segment[0] = seg;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("seg", this.getNextHighestDepth());
seg.lineStyle(2, 0x000000, 100);
seg.moveTo(0, 0);
seg.lineTo(10, 0);
for (i=1; i<segTotal; ++i) {
    var segment_mc = seg.duplicateMovieClip('seg'+i, i, {_x:(i)*segLength});
    segment[i] = segment_mc;
}
/*
MOVEMENT
*/
seg1.onEnterFrame = function() {
    for (var i = segTotal; i>1; --i) {
        newY = segment[i-1].y;
        newR = segment[i-1]._rotation;
        segment[i]._y = newY+Math.cos(newR)*10;
        segment[i]._rotation = segment[i-1]._rotation;
    }
    var timer = getTimer();
    var segCycle = timer*cycleStart;
    this._rotation = Math.sin(segCycle*rotationSpeed+Math.cos(segCycle*rotationRate)*Math.PI*2)*rotationLimit;
};

Random Smooth Waving Line
Hi guys,

I've searched the net and I couldn't find anything on this.

I have this line:

http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/3...inglineej8.png

And I want it to randomly wave like if it was a hair in the wind, or like a snake moving, or even like a flame waving.

Is there any way of doing it with actionscript?

Is it also possible to make react to the cursor? When I pass through it with the mouse it moves, like if I just touched it.

Thank you very much

Page Turning... Drowning Or Waving?
Hi,
This is a great resource. I'm fairly new to Flash and have been working my way through the Tutorial guides but I'm wondering if what I'm trying to do is just way out of my league.

I want to make a village booklet/photos available online using Flash. I have scanned a few photos/pages. I tried out the Page Turning demo and fell in love with it and my aim is to use that to make the booklet available on web/CD. I have tried out some lovely magnifying glass demos and ideally I plan to somehow integrate a zoom function into the Page Turning scripts.

So, how daft am I being? Am I way over my head in Action Scripting for this or is it a 10 minute job once I figure out what needs to be done?

-foxy

I have been trying to get the kids off to bed early all week so that I can sit down and work through things.....
