Just Found This Out....1 Part Heads Up / 2nd Part A Question..
old i know you won't care but maybe some will take this into consideration..i just found out that aol's new browser 7.0 and ie 6 are not compatible..buttons that call javascripted buttons (pop ups, etc), are not working..I guess bill gates and the new timewarner/aol guru are having tissies..aol will have to go back and build a patch for aol 7.0, the only other option for them i guess would be switch to netscape as there default browser..but bill probably, somehow, owns that one too..

anyways just thought you guys would like to know that for anyone who clicks on your sites with aol7.0 your javascript isn't working..

craziness.............

now for the question..i know this is the wrong forum but i'm gona ask you guys to explain this to me..it's a javascript that preloads images..will someone break it down and explain this to me..benefits of it of course i know..just not understanding exactly how it works..

Play 1st Part, Preload 2nd Part, Play 2nd Part: Possible?
I've recently started with Flash development and I was wondering if the following was possible using only one Flash file?

- The first part is shown and the user can click a button here to continue.
- When he clicks the button, a preloader part is shown and the rest of the file is loaded.
- When it's done, the rest is shown.

I already have the parts seperated in movieclips and unchecked the "export in first frame" option on the movieclips for the second part, but that doesn't help.

If this isn't possible, how should I go about it then? Should I use a second .swf which I load with a loadMovie statement?

Flying Fonts
I'm new to Flash. I've always been impressed with text animation that allows the single characters to fly on or off the page along a path. Is there a dark secret associated with this trick or is it a simple set of commands.

Flying Sitemap

Flying Buttons
hey. i have about 100 buttons on one screen that i want to fly in from the left... ONE AT A TIME... is there an easier way to do this with as maybe and not have to made 100 different layers and manually animate EVERY STINKIN' ONE.........?

Flying In Space
I understand that this code is probably MUCH more complex than it needs to be so If you can condense it, great. The major problem, however, is that it dosen't work. The intent is to get a ship to fly around the screen, in all directions. the rotation works fine and the problem is only that the ship stops short when the key is released rather than either gradually slowing down or maintaining a set speed.

code:

if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)){
vx += speed*Math.sin(this._rotation*(Math.PI/180));
vy -= speed*Math.cos(this._rotation*(Math.PI/180))
this._x += vx;
this._y += vy;
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)){
vx -= speed * (Math.sin(this._rotation*(Math.PI/180)));
vy += speed * (Math.cos(this._rotation*(Math.PI/180)));
this._x += vx;
this._y += vy;
}
}

,

vx and vy are velocities on the two axes.

if you want the full code or just prefer working in flash, I included my .fla's for you.

Flying Leaves
Anyone out there know how i can recreate this effect? I'm quite a newbie but I hope to achieve this with the help of you guys!

Its like leaves appear from the left side of a movie stage and they sweep across to the right ... u know?

then using arrays these leaves are called and attached randomly at the left side of the stage and they are to fly across about 3/4 of the screen and fade off?

basically its something like ~this~ but the only concern is i need it to be random.

Thanks. ANy help is appreciated.

Flying Butterfly
This is somewhat silly but I can not create a smooth butterfly flight as appearing on this site: http://www.spankclothing.ca

I created a motion on defined path with movie clip of flying butterfly going from point A to point B. What I get is distorted butterfly moving in rather unnatural way.

What am I doing wrong?

I know this is very simple for most users here so please overwhelm me with responses!

Thanks a bunch!!

Flying Bird
I am new to Flash. I just upgraded to CS3 and am trying to create an employee website with a flash file. I created my design in Photoshop and am using Fireworks to create my slices and Dreamweaver to finish it off. I am not sure if I need to do my slices first in Fireworks and then import that into Flash to create my animation. anyone know?

also, for my flash file, I have a scene with a tree, buildings, grass and clouds. I wanted to add a bird flying, some moving clouds and a light flashing on and off. The problem I am having is with the bird flying. I found animated gifs on the internet and tried to use those with a motion guide but the animated gif won't work. I tried doing my own animation with a bird with it's wings up and then down. It is very choppy and I know I didn't do it the right way. I used all kinds of keyframes and motion tweened between each one and then added motion guide. Can anyone help me out? I just want a small black bird flying across my scene and I want to do it the easiest way as possible. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

UFO Flying Across The Page
Hi, Im designing a site for a theme park. The site is being built in xhtml. The client wants a UFO to fly from one side of the page to the other - or perhaps diagonally. Can this be done in flash? Ive seen those annoying adverts that I think is done in flash, which animates over the page. would i somehow embed a flash movie which is 100% size of screen and set the background to transparent? I dont know, is this feasible?
thanks.
ps
also - i quite like the feature on this site where the panel animates up from the bottom of the browser screen advertising a new book. how have they done this?

Flying Dandelions
Does anyone remember a .fla that showed how to create an effect of dandelions flying across the screen. It showed how to create them "flying" by from the wind, swaying back and forth. It's probably around two years old by now, but I think that Innovative-FX did the tutorial, but now I cant find it. Specifically, I thought Samuel Wan did it, but no info found anywhere on his sight.

Can anyone recall what Im trying to describe and where I could find it? Please help...

Help With A Flying Object
Not sure if this is the correct place to post this request.

I am after some help with an idea i have. Unfortunatly, i keep failing and haven't got very far with it at all.

I have a banner advert that i would like a bird to fly around. The bird's flight path should look natural - i.e. not a repeated single straight line, but maybe flying on and off the screen at random points with the bird point in the right direction. Maybe also sometimes the bird could turn around on screen.

Can anybody help?

Flying Banners
I need to create a flying ad banner to appear in a home page.

I used a method that is not very suitable, I put an HTML DIV tag that I set invisible using the fscommand and javascript when the user decide to close the banner.

The problem is that if my banner is not rectangle I cannot select text and links under it. And I can't fully use Flash to make the banner move.

Other problem is that I can't control what flash movie is on top if the banner happens to be over another flash movie.

Any clue?

Flying Saucers All Over Burtonland
hello helpful people...

im creating a website authored only in flash to explore the worlds created by director tim burton...

but ive got a problem with my mars attacks! shoot-em-up game

when enter the game from the menu page all is ok, but when i try to link back at the end of the game, the flying saucers (that are randomly generated within a movie clip)continue across the screen when i go back to my menu page...i used 'stopallsounds' that stops all the game sounds okay...but is there a similar function to stop movie clips?

theyve invaded all my scenes!...can anyone save me from these aliens in a independence day stylee!...or maybe just tell me the actionscript to keep this movie clip operating in its own scene!

thanks in advance...

Flying Across Screen - Flash Ads....how To Do This?
Has anyone out there ever seen those flash ads that fly across your screen on like a layer of some kind? DHTML? Does anyone know how to do this or how it is done...like what does the script consist of and how to build a flash file to do this sort of thing? Who does this stuff?

I saw one a yahoo.com...it just came out of nowhere and flashed an ad for about 10 seconds and then it was gone....it was totally seemless and was fully interactive.

How can I do this?

Thanks guys!

Scripted Flying Motion
Hello,

k, i'm working on this project where i need to script the following kind of motion:

i have four 'pods', spheres bascially, that need to come onto the stage via a flying motion. the four are supposed to come in from four random directions, and sorta curve into position. when i say curve, what i mean is not come in via a straight line.

once they're there, the need to sorta hover around a bit in place. like up/down/side to side.

any, any help would be appreciated, or points to tutorials or websites that might cover this kind of thing.

thanks!

I cant remember the address of the site i saw it on but im gonna look if i can find it ill post it here.

Flying Game HitTests
Hi, iv just managed to sort out my hitTests for a game im making, you fly around in a spaceship, using left right and up to mnove direction, and gravity can pull you down.
Iv got hitests that just goto a gameover screen when you collide with the ground.
I now want to develope a damage system, and i know how to do all that, but i want to know how to get my space ship to stop if he hits an oject softly, iv sewt the hitTests to turn my speed and stuff to 0, but it keeps moving down little by little because of gravity.

any idea of what to do?

thanks,

Need Your Brains. Flying Blind...
I need help with this project.
I am trying to remove the objects that drawn on the stage in an array so I can clear them from the stage.
the script for creating the objects is:-
******************************
a++;
duplicateMovieClip("cross",a, a++);
startDrag("cross", true);

******************************
From my limited knowledge, I believe the objects are duplicated on different levels.
I have used this scripting to attach objects in another project.
******************************
x++;
// creates a new instance of
_root.attachMovie("ball", "ball"+x, x+100);
this["ball"+x]._y = 200;//random(200) + 150;
this["ball"+x]._x = -100;
numBalls = ballsOnScreen.push("ball"+x);

*****************************
and used this script to remove them
*****************************
for (i in ballsOnScreen) {
this[ballsOnScreen[i]]._x += 7;
if(this[ballsOnScreen[i]]._x > 800) {
this[ballsOnScreen[i]].removeMovieClip();
ballsOnScreen.splice(i, 1);
}
}
*****************************
But I am unable to get a simular thing to work.

I am thinking, if you can put the levels created into an array. You then should be able to remove them either one at a time or all of them.
I have not been able to get the removeMovie to work so I thought that clearing levels might work .

Is this posible ?

If so. How?

Animate A Flying Butterfly
Hi

I am a bit new to Flash.
But i am trying to animate a flying butterfly. So far i have this:

http://tmp.blacknet.dk/smørfugl2.swf

The problem is, its not facing the direction its flying. The movement is made up, of a random movement Action Script, that looks like this:

Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
//data you may want to change
width = 550;
height = 400;
speed = Math.round(Math.random()*2)+1;
//initial positions
x = this._x=Math.random()*width;
y = this._y=Math.random()*height;
x_new = Math.random()*width;
y_new = Math.random()*height;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
//x movement
if (x_new>this._x) {
sign_x = 1;
} else {
sign_x = -1;
}
dx = Math.abs(x_new-this._x);
if ((dx>speed) || (dx<-speed)) {
this._x += sign_x*speed;
} else {
x_new = Math.random()*width;
}
//y movement
if (y_new>this._y) {
sign_y = 1;
} else {
sign_y = -1;
}
dy = Math.abs(y_new-this._y);
if ((dy>speed) || (dy<-speed)) {
this._y += sign_y*speed;
} else {
y_new = Math.random()*height;
}
}
btw i am using MX!

An example on what i want to do, can be seen here:
http://www.lifeforcerecords.com/ecardraunchy.htm

Does any know how to do this?
