Please a me makey a preloader and find good backround music and SFX

Well I don't think we are at a point where we should be thinking much about BGmusic and SFX. While they are important parts of a game, we shouldn't burden our selves with the tasks prematurely. We are not maintaining an *.FLA file yet, part of the goal was that this project would be able to copy and paste the code on the first frame.

Made a new one
SWf Protection Code

This may seem similar to the one in AS3 Main but I made this he just got to post it before me and I haven't tested it yet well I acnt upload another flash at another website without redeeming qualities

import flash.display.*;
//Just imports importants stuff

(just for your reference, if you are coding in the Flash CS3 IDE, importing display objects (as well as the majority of the flash classes) is not nessary. Only when you are working out of the external classes. just saving your potential lines of code)

var Good_url:String = "http://www.blah.org/crapSWf"
//Put the website where the swf is embedened in

var this_url:String = this.loaderInfo.url;

if(this_url.indexOf(good_url) ==0)

{

play();

}else{

gotoAndStop("stolen");
//Change stolen to the frame label you have there in the project :3

}

Finally, I don't think we need to worry too much about this getting stolen... it is open source. A better idea would be to have maybe a text box in the corner linking to this page OR when ever this makes it to the portal a link there.

BUT I'll let the rest of the authors chime in. The big reason why I am no liking this code its it requires more than one key frame. If you could build it to not start the game and display a graphic (using the DisplayObject.graphics / textfield classes) then I'd be less hesitant ^_^

what now

Creatively we seem to be in a bit of a pickle. I think we should expand it so its something more than just this cliche 'see how many you can pop' game. Anyone have any ideas?

I can think of a few roads to go down. Remember the whole 10 lines.

One thing to do is to set up the particles in its own array, which leaves open the usage for the random object getter function.

maybe the particles become attracted to the mouse.

maybe the explosions are proportionate to the original size of the circle.

maybe create a 2nd object. (which could lead to it falling down the screen which could lead to a different action happening)

maybe have the mouse cursor (flash drawn) get larger as time goes on so its harder to avoid the circles.

maybe instead of mouse over you have to throw the circle at another circle to get it to pop.

maybe if you pop one of one color, they others need to be similar colors to work.

(these are all just examples, maybe it'll help you think of something)

I'm holding back from adding more, until i get a few more from others ^_^

maybe Mike would like to add something? = D

What if we assign a committee that will review the submissions and add the ones that are worthy to the project? It will be kind of like what other open-source organizations do.

What do you think?

it may come to that. Though I'd like to try and see if we can worry less about if its worthy. As long as its code that works. I'm sure some filtering will occur but, but hopefully we can keep it to a minimum.

New users can continue adding code here in the forum, but to see the current code make sure you go here:
http://code.google.com/p/as3collab/sourc e/browse/trunk/src/com/newgrounds/as3/as 3_collab_1/as3_collab_1.as
(as well as take considerations on new additions that may be in the forum that haven't gotten added to the google repository)

and then project members will add it to the repository. Users will have the option to become members, which at that point you can add code to it directly (though if you don't want to you don't need to be a member)

And anyone who changes the current code should write a comment here about what you added to the project.

Ok. So I just created a google code repository for this project.
http://code.google.com/p/as3collab/

you can view the source by clicking:
Source -> Browse -> trunk -> src -> com -> newgrounds -> as3 -> as3_collab_1 -> as3_collab_1.as

For this first run at this project, ironing out how to manage all of this will work its self out. I will need to add super users to the project so hopefully the next round we go, a multi-class as3 project can be started as well as as2 projects.

I am going to need the current authors of this current project to create a gmail account so I can add you as project members, PM me please.

This also introduces version control access. If you are unfamilar with this, this is a way for you to edit the file, and then be able to upload it and comment your changes, as well as see changes as it changes.

If you are using windows, you can http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ and install it on your machine.

once it is installed check out this walk though on how to set it up and use it.
https://www.projects.dev2dev.bea.com/Sub version%20Clients/TortoiseSVN.html

login user name and password is handled by google (and your password may not be your gmail account password, find it in google.code settings tab)

Any of you who do not have SVN experience will benifit from this because its a big part of working on a development team.

If this seems like too much let me know, we could continue to manage the way we are right now. Any question ask them here, I'll do my best to answer them. ^_^

This is why most people use classes.

Who still codes on frames in ActionScript 3? :s

yeah I started thinking about this yesterday, I wrote about it here:

http://asftw.typepad.com/actionscript_fo r_the_win/2008/09/no-as3-classes.html

I added a chain reaction system to the circles popping. With all these new display objects on the screen, Ben-Fox (or anyone) could pull a another nifty effect using the get random object from array or stage.

Good job so far.

Thanks a bunch Tom ^_^

when ever you are going to change a font (or any thing in a textFormat) you need to set the format then the text.

var someTextField:TextField
//////////

changeFontOfText(someTextField, "verdana");
someTextField.text = "some text";

// // // // or if you want the same text
// someTextField.text = someTextfield.text;

function changeFontOfTextField(targetTextField:TextField, someFontString:String):void
{
    var tempFormat:TextFormat = targetTextField.getTextFormat();
    tempFormat.font = someFontString;
    targetTextField.setTextFormat(tempFormat);
}

AS3 textfields are a bit wonky,

have you tested out of the IDE? some times the IDE uses more resources than stand alone or in html

I already have all of my listeners set to be weak referenced. And I also remove all of my listeners..
Although I think I solved my problem.. I just wish there was a way to check that it really is removed..

There is a way for you to know if garbage collection has happened.

first get a flash memory viewer:
http://www.gskinner.com/blog/archives/20 08/04/simple_componen.html

second, where ever you are removing listeners and want to know if garbage collection happened... create a bunch of garbage. Then do a net connection 'hack' to start the garbage collector.

private const GARBAGE_TOTAL:int = 250;
////////////
someObject.removeEventListener(Foo.BAR, foobar);

for(var garbageIndex:int = 0; garbageIndex < GARBAGE_TOTAL; garbageIndex++)
{
   var trashClip:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
   trashClip.graphics.lineStyle();  
   trashClip.graphics.beginFill(0xF0CC12, 1);
   trashClip.graphics.drawRect(0,0,500,500);
   trashClip.graphics.endFill();
}

/// trigger garbage collection
try
{
    var lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
   lc.connect("FOO");
   lc.connect("BAR");
}
catch(e:Error)
{

}

using the memory viewer, you will see memory increase, then if it decreases that means garbage collection has happened. Adding some garbage helps see if the 'hack' triggered garbage collection.

of couse this doen't mean your event listener has garbage collected... you are just sure that a GC sweep happened. ^_^

also don't keep that code in your program when it is released

I just got an idea though I am unsure of how well this will work. Might as well try.

So how bout a thread that just creates some large scale program. something that could be copied into the first frame of a flash cs3 time line and compiled. Assume no library graphics.

I think 10 lines max per post:
Use the rules from 25Lines.com on what a line is.

Try not to significantly alter existing code, but you can add to others functions and such. Please either use good coding practices or comments for WHY instead of HOW

finally, copy and paste the total commented project in your post, so its easy to for the next person to add to the IDE.

Maybe by the end we'll have something submitable to the portal... keep an eye out for people who submit it early ^_^

Here is the starting block.

const CIRCLE_RADIUS_MIN:int = 25;
const CIRCLE_RADIUS_MAX:int = 50;
const CIRCLE_CREATION_DELAY:int = 500;

var circleCreationTimer:Timer = new Timer(CIRCLE_CREATION_DELAY, 0);
circleCreationTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, createCircleEvent);
circleCreationTimer.start();

function createCircleEvent(timerEvent:TimerEvent):void
{
	var newCircle:Sprite = createCircleSprite();
	
	newCircle.x = Math.random()*(stage.stageWidth - newCircle.width);
	newCircle.y = Math.random()*(stage.stageHeight - newCircle.height);
	addChild(newCircle);
}

function createCircleSprite():Sprite
{
	var radius:int = CIRCLE_RADIUS_MIN + Math.random()*(CIRCLE_RADIUS_MAX - CIRCLE_RADIUS_MIN);
	var tempCircle:Sprite = new Sprite();

	tempCircle.graphics.lineStyle();
	tempCircle.graphics.beginFill(Math.random()*0xFFFFFF);
	tempCircle.graphics.drawCircle(radius/2, radius/2, radius);
	tempCircle.graphics.endFill();

	return tempCircle;
}

if this doesnt work out well... the rules may need tweeking then. ^_~

just as murudai says:

// init
var totalThong = 1;
////

timer += 1;
if (timer == maxtime){

  for(var thongIndex = 0; thongIndex < totalThong; thongIndex++)
  {
     duplicateMovieClip(thing,"thong"+thongIndex, thongIndex)
  }

  totalThong++;
  timer =  0;
} 

this really strange. I can only infer that the yellow line is when you hit tab and flash highlights buttons... so maybe flash is viewing your game class as a button. ( if you want to see an example goto homestarrunner.com and hit tab when you are on the main page.)

if you are having issues removing something from memory, make sure if its a movieclip, that it is stopped, and if any sounds are playing that they are also stopped. I noticed that if a movieclip with timeline sound is playing, it doesnt get unloaded.

The key event listeners do not have to be on the stage my good man.

depending on child of the stage has the event listener you can do:

stage.focus = someDisplayObject;
someDisplayObject.addEventListener(keyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyDownEvent);

/// now if this display object ALWAYS needs the keyboard listener you can do:
someDisplayObject.addEventListener(focusEvent.OUT, focusOutEvent); // might be FOCUS_OUT

/// or maybe you just need to disable stuff that intercepts keyboard events that you don't care about
/// such as a text field.  If the mouse clicks on a display object, the previously focus displayObject looses focus
anotherDisplayObject.mouseEnabled = false;
/// and if it has children
anotherDisplayObject.mouseChildren = false;

here was the line at the Apple Store in OakBrook, IL around 5:30-6pm
http://qik.com/video/127592

I was toying with the idea of getting an iPhone to see how I would like it, but in the end I decided to stay with my Nokia N95. The lack of a nice camera is the only thing really hurting the iPhone in my eyes.

http://flickr.com/photos/gltovar/2351306 726/

I did goto an an AT&T store and ask if it would be possible to create a NEW account, then get the iPhone3G at the subsidized price then cancel my contract and pay the ETF which would still be cheaper than buying an official unlocked iPhone. And then I could use the pwnage tool and use my regular AT&T sim to try it out. Also get the programs i really would want on the iPhone like QIK.

So Tom what is swirling around you head for the iPhone? Game Dev? a mobile version of NG? Well you (vaguely) know me, i'd kill for some opportunity to work @ NG, so if an AS3 programmer
(fully understands OOP, Garbage Collection, Event Driven logic, pretty much all the ins and outs of Flash) could learn the Dev Syntax for iPhone lemmie know. (yeah, i know i didn't pm this ^_~)
