Tommy, to answer you're question about the movieclip thing, It should work... because, when you import actually movies, like .avi files and stuff, you get the option of importing it as a MC, or straight to the timeline

So yes, it should work.

you need the .fla obviously, right?

COUNT ME IN :)

This is gonna be amazing. I can't wait!!!

Hmm, makes sense. haha

Thanks alot :D

Oh, and do I have to send you the one I am going to submit? or.. I can just make a sample one first, and send it to you? If you want to look at my work, check my profile, and If you think I am worthy enough, to start a final already (to save lots of time), just say so.

Thanks

Hi.

I know you can manually change the quality, for smoother animation (depending on you're connection), and I created the Flash Halo:DEMO game thats on here, and I am currently working on the full version.

I want to know the AS, that I can put on a button to change the quality from High to Low (and Low to High).

Thanks.

Yes...here's my chance. I'll do it! :D

Yeah, no one likes babies.

We've all had our share of blammed entries, but hey, we learn from our mistakes. Whining wont get you anywhere.

And there is always a reason for something to get blammed. If it was really as good as you say it is, it would have stayed.

And yes, soundboards do suck, only because they are old. We need new, and interesting idea's to watch/play... not remakes of stuff made years ago.

Anyways, good luck in the future, and just keep pracitising.

Hi. I really need this. I could probably do it, but I might mess it up, i'll see if any of you can help:

I need the action script for the following:

I want this AS on the instance "skater", and I want it so that he stays in the middle, but when you press the right key, it plays the "moveright" scene on the MC, and the background moves (scrolls) left (to make the moving affect). I also want it so that when you press space bar, it plays the "jump" scene on the skater MC, but only when spacebar is released, not pushed down.

That's pretty much all I need to get started. If anyone could help, that would be great thanks.

ok, i have this code:

onClipEvent (mouseDown){
_root.aimer.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.ammo-=1;
if(_root.ammo==0){
_root.aimer.gotoAndPlay("reload");
}
}

and that works fine, BUT, now i want it so that the first part of the code, only happens if the score is atleast 1. Because, with out that, once it goes to the RELOAD screen, you press shoot, and it still shoots.

Anyone know what to add to that script to do that?

-Thanks.

Hey.

Ok...I am making a First Person Shooter, and I want the enemy to move across the screen, at random speeds, and random directions (moving only left and right).

If anyone could help me, that would be great.

well, to make the filesize alot smaller, just compress any sounds, or songs you have.

If that doesn't work (which it should), than make sure you're movie isn't a million frames, there are much easier ways to make them.

Other than that, try it, and I hope to see you're work in the portal.

Well, first of all, make sure you're preloader is on the very first frame and scene of you're movie. Second of all, if yours isn't working, download the NewgroundsPreloader.fla from here, and change it around however you like.

Hey, my email is game_boy99@hotmail.com

But that needs the other leg and arm! haha. just fix that, and tell me your email first...so i can add you to contacts so it doesnt reject the "junk mail".

Oh, nevermind, i got it. :)

Yeah, i've checked there...I cant exactly find what I need. Theres so much to look through on that site.

Does anyone know off by heart what the code is? It cant be that long.

Hey. I have a question.

Does anyone know the AS code for a movie clip to move with the mouse, but not directly on it? like... I want to make a first person shooter, and I want the mouse arrow to be like the cross-hair thing, which is usually in the top-left corner of the gun.

if you know what I mean please help, and reply. If you think you can help, but aren't quite sure what I mean, say so.

Thanks.

Yes

and Skwee, don't mind if this isn't done for a while, I have alot of things to do also, but this stuff takes time anyways, if you wana make it right.

ok, cool. I might not get the email, for some junk mail filter thing... what's your email, so I can add you to the contact list, so it knows its not junk mail?

That's pretty cool. It would probably look better larger.

Well, keep it up, can't wait for the movie.

Alright. I THOUGHT I had hockey tonight, but it looks like i'm not going...so, i'll continue with the AS right now.

you made that??

If you did, and you didn't steal it from someone, than that'd be great. Is it make with different limbs on seperate layers?

If not... I guess just send it to me, and i'll have to do it.

Yeah, that would be a little helpful. I think we should go Soul Calibur II style characters, like...a variety of street-fist fighters, kick boxers, sword fighters, etc.

Alright...well, right now, we need people to make characters, not programmed, or animated to do anything, I'm doing all of that.... but You have to make one, with each limb on seperate layers (so i can animate them), and then post a pic here BEFORE you send them, and we'll decide whether or not we'll use it.

OR

You can help with the background, sound FX, Music, etc.

Well, the more characters means we need more people in on this, helping us.

And if we don't find anyone, than it'll just take longer. But patience and taking our time is what we need.

Anyone wana help? we could really use it.

True...

People who are reading this, it is not too late to join in and help.

We need ill say about 4-6 characters to make it good...

So if you, me, and Skwee make characters, that leaves about 2-3 more characters we'll need.

But

We also need people to do background drawings/animations.

I'll do most to all of the AS, which includes health bars, VS Screens, main screens, (if this is alright with Skwee).

And, Skwee, if you don't mind me asking... you seem to be asking for help and stuff, getting things organized... but what are you doing to take part in the game?

Ok, well this post is almost dying!

People who are interested, please post what you want. It only makes it easier for this to work.

Thanks.

Maybe you have to hold the space bar down, and wait a minute?

If that's not the problem, paste the whole code here, I'll try and see what might be wrong with it.

And make sure you don't have another AS command using the Spacebar to goto another clip... like, what's you're jump button?

No offense, but... you worked hard on that???

It could use alot of work, and maybe don't make a movie about shit. Make an interesting, unique plot, with unique characters, and spend alot of time on the graphics... Than maybe your stuff won't get blammed.

These people have standards here.

But anyways, practise makes perfect. I was in the same boat once, everything I submitted got blammed. But than I took my time, and it all paid off. And I'm sure this has happened to everyone here.

Anyways, practice, and I'll keep an eye out for you're new movies/games

Ok, I had some homework today, and I just got back from hockey. I will continue the AS tonight, and i'll get alot done tomorrow (hopefully I wont get much homework).

Anyone got suggestions for moves? I'll see what I can do.
