if you publish the FLA to .mov file movie clips should work properly

if not your best bet is probably http://www.sothink.com/product/swftovide oconverter/index.htm

Im not giving you the code or else you wont learn!

ill give you the code and explain it the best i can cuz im a nice guy
code goes on Vcam

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
	_x += (_root."character instance name goes here"._x-_x)/4;
	_y += (_root."character instance name goes here"._y-_y)/4;
}

_x += (_root."character instance name goes here"._x-_x)/4;
this tells vcam to ease in on the x position of the player.
it is divided by 4 so the cam doesn't jump arround.

same goes for second line.

hope this helps

you should be using stream

then you are doing something crazy wrong.

this code works without any serious issues

onClipEvent (load) {
	var ground:MovieClip = _root.ground;
	var grav:Number = 0;
	var gravity:Number = 2;
	var speed:Number = 15;
	var maxjump:Number = -30;
	var onground:Boolean = false;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	_y += grav;
	grav += gravity;
	while (ground.hitTest(_x, _y, true)) {
		_y -= gravity;
		grav = 0;
	}
	if (ground.hitTest(_x, _y+5, true)) {
		onground = true;
	} else {
		onground = false;
	}
	if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
		_x += speed;
	}
	if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
		_x -= speed;
	}
	if (Key.isDown(Key.UP) && onground) {
		grav = maxjump;
	}
	if (ground.hitTest(_x+(_width/2), _y-(_height/2), true)) {
		_x -= speed;
	}
	if (ground.hitTest(_x-(_width/2), _y-(_height/2), true)) {
		_x += speed;
	}
	if (ground.hitTest(_x, _y-(_height), true)) {
		grav = 3;
	}
}

just rename your wall instance name ground if you want to copy paste.

with this your ground can be any shape as long as its thick enough.
it also works with walls and ceilings.

use this instead

onClipEvent(load){
speed = 10;
grav = 0;
wall = _root.wall
}
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
while(wall.hitTest(_x,_y,true)){
_y-=grav;
grav=0;
}
_y += grav;
grav++;
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
_x += speed;
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){
_x -= speed;
}
}

even this isnt the best and i wouldn't use it, but it is a start.
try it out, if you dont like the results, the ultimate platformer tutorial helps a lot.

i dont see anything wrong just by glancing.
check the movie clip for any stray stop script.
if it still gives you trouble after messing with it a bit try this.

if (Key.isDown(Key.SHIFT)){
 speed = run;
 } else {
 speed = walk;
 }
 if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
_x += speed;
 this.gotoAndStop(2);
 _xscale = +scale;
 }
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) and speed == run){
this.gotoAndStop(3);
 _xscale = +scale;
}

and just switch it around for left.

hope it works.

changes with each level

try this

put it in your character

onClipEvent(load){
speed = 10;
grav = 0;
wall = _root.wall
}
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
while(wall.hitTest(_x,_y,true)){
_y-=grav;
grav=0;
}
_y += grav;
grav++;
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
_x += speed;
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){
_x -= speed;
}
}

tested
character bounces a bit but doesnt go through platform

this is just for the ground, not sure if you are trying to make left and right walls

lol.
You beat me to it when i was testing and typing.

change

if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
_x -= walk;
this.gotoAndStop(2);
_xscale = -scale;
 }
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
_x += walk;
 this.gotoAndStop(2);
 _xscale = +scale;
 }

to this

if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
_x -= speed;
this.gotoAndStop(2);
_xscale = -scale;
 }
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
_x += speed;
 this.gotoAndStop(2);
 _xscale = +scale;
 }

tested and works assuming i didnt make any typos

whats the deadline?

are there any spaces available...i would love to have a part in this

you sir win 1000 internets

actualy looking for text to speech (type it in and talks) but thanks anyway :D

anything at all?

yes but you cant export wav without registering...at least with the new one you cant

any others?

does anyone know of a good free text to speech program that will export wav and or mp3 files?

tried speakonia but that needs monies and i have none

disregard last post

i suck cocks...thanks for the fix

scrach that...it only works for the top side and the left side...still goes through right and bottom side...any fixes?

nvm it works

THANK YOU SOO MUCH

thanks...do i put this in the clip or the frame?

ok i know this is simple but i made this thingy

http://fc01.deviantart.com/fs23/f/2007/3 38/0/f/scripting_this_was_a_bitch_by_Mag icalmonkeyguy.swf

one little problem...the ball goes off the stage

can someone maybe send me a tutorial on how keeping it in the stage is done because i have yet to find one.

also teh ball is controlled with the arrow keys...

mine ended up looking like this

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT))
_root.guy._x += 5; {
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT))
_root.guy._x -= 5; {
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP))
_root.guy._y -= 5; {
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN))
_root.guy._y += 5; {
}
}

works perfectly

this gonna be my last post on this thread unless someone does find something cuz i still cant.

i would like to thank that one person that did try help tho.

scripting is a bitch.

still can't find D:

set BG to alpha 0 but to hard to explain and really buggy when you try it D:

probably no difference exept for a few new script functions

bump bump bumpety bump

ok so im working on a thing where u torture a kid (yes i am a sick man) and i want bullet holes to stay in the BG if you dont hit the kid.

my problem is that the bullet holes just jump to where ever you click.

view it here
http://www.helnet.org/ngup/uploads/70858 6_kid%20torture_Scene%208.swf

is there maybe a script that can fix this?
