[F8] Talking About Levels..controling Levels, Loading Swfs Into Levels, Etc
Hello, people!

I have a little tweaking i need to adjust.

To get to the point:


if (1==1)
{
loadMovieNum("test.swf", 3);

_level3.gotoAndStop(10);
}
else (...)


The problem is that on the if cycle, it doesnt consider the level as being loaded. I've tryed a while to wait for the level to load, nothing worked.

I've tested with a button to see if the level exist and is possible to control it and it is, with the onRelase.button etc etc.

Any ideas?

Ricardo

Thanks!

»» Two Flash Talking Together ««
This is something I wanna do with a webpage made in frames.

One top frame and another one on the bottom.

Each one contains a different swf files... Is it possible for them to exchange information together?

One Flash would be "Invisible" and it would send variables to the main one on the Top frame...

Is it complicated? Is it something Explorer and Netscape can handle (PC and Mac).

I've made my search and cant find anything about Flash talking to another in a Frame based webpage.

Javascript Talking To Flash
Okay folks, here is the situation. I've got a page with a big old hunk of Javascript which, as one of its functions, takes the correct number of responses a user inputs and then does a little math based on the number of response the user made and comes back with a number that falls within 1 of 4 ranges. The range determines which of 4 messages will display in a text box. Here is the bit of script to which I refer:
-------------------------------------------------------
function blah() {
a = .16 * guess;
b = Math.sqrt(a);
c = guess * .2 ;
d = correct - c ;
e =(d/b) ;
f = Math.abs(e);
g = FormatNumber(f,2,true,false)
if( f <= 1.96) {
document.fname.tell.value = "Your score of " +g+ " blah blah blah.";
} if( f > 1.96 && f <= 2.58) {
document.fname.tell.value = "Your score of " +g+ " bleh bleh bleh." ;
}
if( f > 2.58 && f <= 3.00) {
document.fname.tell.value = "Your score of " +g+ " bluh bluh bluh" ;
if( f > 3.00) {
document.fname.tell.value = "Your score of " +g+ " yah yah yah" ;
}
}
}
-------------------------------------------------------

In addition to this, I have a small Flash movie with 5 frames. The first is blank and each of the remaining 4 will play a unique audio clip.

What I would like to be able to do is have the Flash movie know which of the four results was returned via the Javascript and play the frame of the movie that corresponds with the result.

If it would be easier to create 4 seperate little swf's (each containing one of the 4 audio clips) in order to get the Javascript result to play a specific swf, I could go that route. I just don't know how or if I can get the Javascript to play a swf based on its result.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Javascript Talking To Flash
Hey Guys,

I have been trawling the forums all afternoon and as yet, haven't found an answer which doesn't involve a vastlt complicated process...

The problem is:

I have a swf embeded in a html page, in this html page, I have a series of links (<a href="dosomething">case 1</a>). What I would like to happen is, when the use clicks/rollsover a link in the html page, this in turns runs a function in flash. I guess that the html link will have to run a javascript function which is fine as I like javascript, the problem is, how does this then talk to flash????

all help in greatly appreciated.

Talking Characters With Flash....
Ok...

This I'm sure is an extremely difficult project to be done in Flash. However I'm wondering how many of you experets are able to code something like this in actionscript and make this work. I was looking at this amazing site , and was wodering how I can create something like this without actually paying these guys. Basically I was wondering how do you make these characters move their mouths to whatever is said in the waves. I know how they move their eyes, which basically deals with wherever you place your mouse position, but the things they say, how would you program that? Any help with this issue will be greatly appreciated.....

Please leave your comments below and any help with this. Thank You!!!

Trouble With Javascript Talking To Flash
I am trying to control the playback of my flash (mx) movie using javascript via a html page.

I can call the function:

<!--
function TOFRAME(){
window.document.playa.GotoFrame(1);
}
and it goes to the correct frame of the movie, however I would like it to go to and play the frame. I have checked out all the methods available but none of them seem to equate to the same thing as the gotoAndPlay(); in actionscript. Is there any way of emmulating the gotoAndPlay(); action in a javascript function?

I have tried putting a play(); action on the targeted frame of the flash movie but this appears to be ignored.

Thanks in advance

Talking To Flash Media Server 2 With AS2
I'm very new to Flash Media Server and I've just installed it on my local dev machine (winXP with no Apache/IIS or other webserver).

In Flash, I'm trying to access streaming video from the Media Server with no luck. Not only can't Flash access the video, but if I monitor the server though the admin panel I can see that there is no activity and no attempts to connect to is.

The following is the path that I'm using:
rtmp://localhost/myvideo_clip

I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong in terms of the URL I'm using? Will I be able to stream video from Flash Media Server if I don't have anything set up as a webserver? Thanks in advance for any insight into this.

HTML Link Talking To Flash
Hi,
I posted this in the Dreamweaver forum. I am not good with flash and need some help on this. I thought I could do this via php/MySQL.

I have a small task to create a map and a list of cities, when I click on the map I need a small red dot or spot come up on the map.

I have searched for Javascript and Ajax scripts that do this, I cant find anything.
So I thought a full flash file can do this. But there is no space left for text.

I would like to know if there is a way I can do this with an image file or with two flash files, one holding the city names and the other holding the map.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Not good with Flash at all :'(

What I have done now is created a flash file with a map and the town and city names as a button.

The over event of the button will show a little red dot on the map in the correct location.

Is there a way I can show the count of how many articles are in the city?

e.g Aberdeen (6)

I have 4 frames, 1 has the preloader, the others have 3 pages of the map and city names as buttons.

Or do you know of a Ajax script that can highlight a picture in the right coordinates?

I'm using PHP and MySQL

I'm trying to get an effect like this: http://www.findaproperty.com

What is needed to get started on something like this? I have no idea on where to start with device communication. I don't want a joystick or keyboard, I want other types of devices that I need to understand how they talk and have it translate into input for a flash app. Do I need additional hardware and/or software?

CSS And Flash Talking...A Challenging For Flash Guru's
I am creating this project....

I want to put a picture on the screen along with the text.... simple... here comes the tricky part.....

I want to be able to click on the EACH WORD OF THE TEXT at runtime..... and here the sound of the WORD.... think along the line of a hyperlink....

I discover flash 2004 can only do this if the TEXTFIELD IS STATIC not DYNAYMIC... which I have tried but doesn't give me that much flexibilty... i.e can't change the font at runtime e.g.

Solution 1
--------------------
Pro's..... Using CSS I discover that I could mainuplate the text field as much as I can... and also have each word highlightable with some trciky html editing with the 'href' ediiting.... BUT

Con's.... Now I can make each word highlight even change the font... I simply can't figure out how to make this word... when clicked to communicate with flash (bare in mind... I don't tend for the app to be working on a brower.... but within the projector

So as anybody got any clever or cunning idea... into how I can get around this issue.... SOMEHOW tell FLASH everytime each time the WORD is clicked????

This is quite a tricky one..... but I know there is a solution out there somewhere.... Anybody have a hunch on how to solve this.... or is it a question of waiting for ODDBALL to come and pray that it has this extensive feature that will allow me to do this.

Some Help....

Flash Talking To Flash
Hello,

I am trying to make a swf talk to another swf on a web page, i.e. to separate flash pieces would be able to pass information back and forth to each other on a page.

I have some thoughts on how this might work, but I am curious if anyone has done this before, and or what you would think the best way off achieving this would be. Haven't found much about this topic on the web...



my initial thought would be to have flash update something like an xml file via a webservice, then have the other piece constantly look for a change in information, but that seems forced.

Thanks in advance.

Swapping Levels - Levels Infinate?
Hi

im trying to produce a little news panel that you can swap between news items. The problem im having is the following... when I click a 'next' button I want a new story swf to load over the top - and so on for anouther 5 or 6 times. I want to be able to click forwrd randomly between stories - BUT how do I make sure that the next storie loaded is always on the next level up - and that the last swf is unloaded when the new one has loaded?

thanks for your help

PS: I thought of just putting all the news items in the same SWF but this would meen loading them and all their pictures at the same time and also make it harder to change/update indivdual stories

Talking Between Swf's...
I would like a button press inside one swf to open another swf in a new IE window, whilst also changing the variable "writing" inside the newly opened swf (in new IE window) to a certain .txt file that contains the text i want displayed.

So, i have a template movie, with a variable "writing" that will be used many times over, and in each case, pointing to a different .txt file.

I have been able to do this, but only if the new swf loads inside the old one, but unable to do it when the new swf loads into a seperate IE window.

Any ideas?

HELP One MC Not Talking To Other MC
Hi

I am using Flash 5. I have previously created a website, with two MC's, which works fine. My new site, which uses the same principle as my old site, doesn't work.

My previous site has an MC called "buttons", with menu buttons in it, and screens, which each button links to, in another MC called "screens". The buttons are static.

On my new site, each button is animated, tweening from left to right across the screen. Each button is within its own MC for alignment purposes. I have placed the following code into each button:

on (rollOver) {
stop ();
}
on (rollOut) {
play ();
}
on (release) {
_root.screens.gotoAndStop(2);
}

The on (rollOver) and on (rollOut) commands work fine on each button.

On my previous website,
on (release) { _root.screens.gotoAndStop(2); }
goes straight to the appropriate screen.

Now, when I test the new site, the button does nothing, even though I have asigned the code to it.

I am baffled. The two sites are literally the same except for the moving buttons in the second site.

Please help!!

Both swf’s are targeted to separate empty mc’s – nav_mc and bg_mc.
How can I get the button in nav.swf to tell bg.swf to -goto and play frame 2?

Talking Bee
Hi!

I would like to have some help with the little bee on the link beneath...

First of all I would like to have the bee to speak something randomly,
For example: “hello, I hope you are find today” and so on…

I would be aprox 20 of this randomly “words”

And for second: when you push the bee there will be lets say 10 different other
randomly “words”

It’s a little nice thing to communicate with , in the end there will be
an Ice projector.

Can I do it with action script?

Thanks in advance

Talking
hi, im pretty new to this which is why im here, and i was wondering, how do i place a sound clip in my movies? to better explain, this is what i would like to:

have bob say hi to joe (sound clip one)
joe says hi again (sound clip two)

everything i know about flash up until now was self taught, and the reason im asking for help now is because i've always wondered how people get the timing right when their characters speak, and i dont want end up doing it the hard/long/wrong way. i mean, should i make the movie first, then add sounds, make the sounds first and then make the movie? i was gonna go with the second option, but i cant figure out how to add sounds. i've been looking so many places, but the only tutorials i see anywhere is for everything but what i want to do. and i dont see an "insert sound" option which would be nice, lol. i have the 2004 delux version of Flash MX. hopefully this is an easy question or somewhere can link me to a tutorial. sorry if this has been posted but i did 3 long (really long) searches in the forum and didnt see anything on this.

.AS Talking To .FLA
Hi, I need a movieclip that lives in my .fla to perform an action when something specifically happens in my .as. So pretty much i need to be able to call a function in the .fla from my .as.

Is the only way to do this using custom events and/or eventDispatcher. And if so how would I implement? Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated, thanks
