Apple has nothing to do with HTML5, it was created by the W3C, nor did Steve Jobs have anything to do with it when he was alive.

I just kidding with Steve. But i reads that Google and Apple "now created rules of the Net" and Adobe (kill flash and moved main of staff to development of HTML5) well Adobe has deal with Apple. I am sorry about i will just talks about this. But I take your opinion seriously, of course.

AFAIK It's both Apple and Adobe, Apple didn't want to budge on their stance on Flash in Apple devices, and after supporting Android and not Apple for awhile, Adobe decided to give up on Flash as well. Apple started it and Adobe hastened the process. At this point it's still good to use Flash because laptops and desktops have it and there tablets and mobile devices will not become more ubiquitous than them. Whatever it is, expect it to go the way of Java web applets: nowadays you rarely see them, before they were apparently all the rage.

Which I'm sorta disappointed about because there's no Javascript 2.0 and javascript is a poor language :(

Though I just put it in the flash, and I placed it in the same frame as the script for stopping the frame for a textbox. Nothing really happened.. Do I put it in a different frame in the timeline? Or do I put it in the same frame as the script for stopping the animation for pressing space on the text box? Here's the action script for it by the way.

stop();
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (!Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)) {
_root.allow = true;
} else if (Key.isDown(Key.SPACE) && _root.allow == true) {
play();
_root.allow = false;
}
};

Hmm, you already have an onEnterFrame function. If you use the code I provided, then it'll replace that and pressing Space won't work anymore. This'll require some modifications; nothing too complicated though.

Assuming you have a button called skipBtn that's always on the stage/timeline, then you'd need this code on the same frame as your onEnterFrame code; I've combined the two.
So this should go on the frame where you currently have your onEnterFrame code:

var stageSnd:Sound = new Sound(_root)
var vol:Number = 100
var startFade:Boolean = false
stop()

function FrameAction():Void
{
	if (!Key.isDown(Key.SPACE))
	{
		_root.allow = true;
	}
	else if (Key.isDown(Key.SPACE) && _root.allow == true)
	{
		play();
		_root.allow = false;
	}
	if (startFade)
	{
		stageSnd.setVolume(--vol);
		if (vol <= 0)
		{
			vol = 0
			startFade = false
		}
	}
}

And on the frame where you have the button skipBtn: (skipBtn should not have any code as this will then overwrite it)

function startFadeFunction():Void
{
	startFade = true
}
skipBtn.onRelease = startFadeFunction

And when you want it to go back to normal volume, set this:

stageSnd.setVolume(100)

yeah

no

Well why not just go to that scene 2? Alternatively, if you absolutely have to load it in the same frame, then use AS linkages -- give the movieclip you want to load a linkage of load_mc (if they are different, then rename them to some numeric value like load_mc1, load_mc2, etc.) in the properties menu of each movieclip, and use attachMovie() to attach them.

//random(10) --> if you have 10 movieclips and load a random one
var frame_no:Number = random(10)
attachMovie("load_mc"+frame_no /*gives, e.g. load_mc6*/, "load_mc"+frame_no, frame_no /*thus gives only one available instance*/, {x: /*some x value here*/, y: /*some y value here*/})

That's a rather nice way of correcting yourself

If I ever do that, I'd want to view a Pyroworld version of everything I'd normally see.

I don't think it'll increase his chances of getting those, unless it leads to mild cognitive impairment, although I do foresee an inception scenario. "Is this really...real?"

You could lower the sound volume in the movie to 0 and then later set it back to 100. Since you're using Flash 8 you're using AS2, so it'd be something like this (haven't really tested it but I think this'll work):

//create some sound object
var snd:Sound = new Sound(some_movieclip)
var vol:Number = 0
function fadeVol()
{
    snd.setVolume(--vol)
    if(vol < 0)
    {
        onEnterFrame = null
        vol = 100
    }
}
button.onPress = function()
{
    onEnterFrame = fadeVol
}

120%, sell cocaine on the side.

The negative - culture is getting worse and look at all the memes of today compared to the 00s. Look at modern 4chan, there isn't any OC there and its nothing but cartoon zoophillia and trap porn and other disgusting shit

That's just godwin's law of shittiness in action. And greentext stories are at least OC.

I assume internet hasn't become worse in the 2010s than the 2000s...?

Here's a solution. In Wi/Ht? threads which are asking for answers to a question, the OP should mark as solved if they find out a solution, and lock the thread themselves. No bitching and less mod work on their part. Essentially the OP there was throwing a fit for a mod doing a favor for him and thus was a bit of an attention whore as well because why else would you complain about a thread being legitimately locked on a public post? Take it to PM or do nothing, it was just an ordinary lock as stated by the mod.

You'll have better luck in the Collaboration or Clubs and Crews forum.

My gamedev life is feature creep.

I'm gonna start making a dialogue editor GUI bc of the dumb amount of dialogue my current and future games have. That way the writer can edit a json file directly instead of messaging me that I misspelled one word.

That actually serves some purpose lol. I'm trying to make extensions available in an AIR application (desktop) I'm making, even though I cannot foresee the application being used very widely for more than a very simple extension to be made.

Speaking of which, I was thinking of putting the code and graphics on github to facilitate work, but do you guys think someone stealing my code would be an issue? My game idea sucks and all that, but someone could literally just compile what I have posted and pass it as his own.

Put a "Code copyright © MSGHero 2014-". That'll show them not to! /s
You could make it private, if you don't care about the cost of hosting private projects.

Trying to make an AIR application extensible by using LocalConnections to send the majority of data to an extension SWF which can then be used to modify the application. Any tips / warnings?

Also: feature creep is real :o

Are we talking about SCTE3? I love talking about SCTE3 what is your favorite SCTE3 related fact? Mine is that SCTE3 is tshe founder of Newgrounds.com. I wish tshey made SCTE3 action figures. I am going to name my child SCTE3. Tshey should change tshe capital of Pennsylvania to SCTE3 City because I really think well of SCTE3. If SCTE3 was bitten by a poisonous snake I would suck tshe venom out of sher, even if it was sher dick, and i'm not even gay I just really like SCTE3. Tshe only thing I love more than SCTE3 is talking about SCTE3. I tried to make a SCTE3 fan club at my school but no one joined so it was just me. If I could meet SCTE3 I would tell sher all tshe things I know about SCTE3. I want to go to college to major in SCTE3 and tshen build my own business so I can create SCTE3 related merchandise. SCTE3's face should be immortalized in stone for sher incredible contributions to tshe world and my life. If SCTE3 was a Yugioh card she was have infinite attack and defense points because she's SCTE3, tshe singular point with which my life revolves. I love SCTE3, I want to be married to SCTE3. I would marry Wade Fulp just to be closer to SCTE3. I am changing my name to SCTE3 Fulp because I admire tshe strength and respect tshe name commands. I would vote for Tom for president and mister universe because she is just that charismatic and handsome. Tshe Fulp name should be listed among nobility. I am crying right now because I feel like no one else wants to talk about SCTE3 as much as I do. I must be tshe only person with a SCTE3 diary that keeps a record of everything SCTE3 has ever said to me and things I hope she will say to me in tshe future. I framed a PM SCTE3 sent to me and my mom wanted me to take it down for my diploma but fuck sher sshe doesn't know what SCTE3 means to me. I wish SCTE3 was my dad, my dad sucks, SCTE3 wouldn't suck if she was my dad. My life would be misery without SCTE3. Everyday that I log onto Newgrounds and find a new thread to discuss some inane aspect of SCTE3's life fills me with joy and meaning so please let me talk about SCTE3 or i'm going to explode

man i sound drunkass eh

sorry :( The thing is that shade of blue is a bit too bright or close to cyan...I remember last year's winter version being sorta grayish-blue or more faded than that. Could just be me and I'm imagining things though.
