We're not going to write out all the script for you. You should ask one specific question. The rest you can refer to AS: Main and look up in Google on your own. That's the best way to do it. Trial and error, along with looking at other ASed things is the way to learn AS itself. So try that, and you should come here only if you have ONE or TWO specific questions.

You shouldn't expect people to be totally psyched for trailers. There are some special exceptions but usually they don't do so well. I think that you could have better characters rather than your "potatoes" and you would do much, much better. Try that first and then maybe we'll be a little more ready for it. The FBF does look good though.

There are so many ways to do FBF (saying to Wind not you PP). This is one way, and you can do start and finish frames and do what you want inbetween. There are loads of different things to do. Go to flashkit, tutorialized, newgrounds flash section, google, anywhere and you find tutorials. But do what you can and then show NG and we'll comment on how to get better. That's the best way!

If you can't afford the newest copy, just go down to a store that sells used computer stuff and buy an obsolete version. It's better than getting hanged for something that may not work in the end.

Some people can't necessarily get the copy because of their parents, money, work, or whatever reason, but you shouldn't go get the obsolete version. Luis is right, either work to get it or just don't get something that you want in a while, because usually you can stay with Flash for a long time, and the newer versions are good for years, of course until their obsolete too in five or six years.

Try streaming the sound. Usually that's the problem when people have it as an event, and it helps so when people stop the movie it pauses music too. To do so, click the frame with the music and then where it says event or whatever type you have it on, make it streamed.

Google it...no I'm just playing
Anyways, could you specify if you're looking for a Coder or if you're just looking for some codes. If you post up what you've got we can help you and try and add some stuff without making it stealing. To find a coder just look in my sig and you'll find a link to a list of Coders (half) searching for work. Try there first. Look through the list of them and say something to one of them if you like what they seem to be able to do, rather than posting your own.

Mines not great, but these all look pretty good. I was going to expect more crap, but I guess not.

I'm pretty sure that those keys don't have a code because they're kind of "outside" keys from Flash and you don't put those in Flash. The normal keys can be found on AS: Main, and other random Keys can be found here...on Adobe's site. But look at google first.

I'm not 100% sure, but maybe it's because your function doesn't run every frame because it's before the onClipEvent(enterFrame){ so it can't do all of those things. I'm not really sure though because I don't know too much about importing from outside sources.

All right, I'll help you keep it alive.
I haven't posted in Art with a picture in a while, so here you go.

One, more definite lines and less pencil shaded shit. Secondly, I'd have it either colored, or not. You don't have parts colored and others just not colored in a picture like this that's drawn (and not too well I might add). So try harder, maybe put it on the computer and draw it in Illustrator, Photoshop, Flash, etc.

That's the JunkyCow I know and love :). Man, I've always loved your work. It's still motion (although you do have animation) but I still think it's great. I'd say fill up the background a bit more though. That green is good, but you should make a few different fish there.

If it's animation just post it here. We don't care if it's at least an attempt and you ACTUALLY try. There's a lot of shit that comes through where people spend three minutes animating and say "OMG I spent all day on this", but if you do spend at least a little time and effort, we'll try and help you (for free $$).

Super Mario Sunshine!

Agree with everyone else that the animation is all right, and good for what I remember you as, but it's just too fast and hard to follow. You should make it slower, but have more content. It's like if you had an 800 page book which doesn't describe much, versus a page which goes more in depth, so shorter but deeper and easier to understand.

At 12/30/07 11:22 PM, WindCrazy wrote: Hello, im a coder, and I just recently got a tablet. But i cant draw or animate. So I was wondering if I could get a tutor, and in return could teach him coding. Or if my stuff gets sponsored, I can pay them

Just a suggestion...do it for free by looking at good tutorials and tracing over other peoples stuff multiple times to adopt the style and then draw your own things and make your own. Then you can keep your own money and learn your own ways rather than just having someone tell you what to do. That's what I would say, just keep trying, post some stuff in the Art Forums and get comments.

The stone has to have an instance name otherwise it won't work. You could technically do this in it's actions but it's about 80 times easier to do it by just clicking and writing <Instance Name>, clicking that, and typing stone, or whatever you'd like it to be named. Also, it must be _root. for it to be multiple MCs

No, theres a stereotype. 90% of wii games eat twice as much shit as 2 Girls 1 Cup.

Stereotype on a videogame...UNHEARD OF!

Good Ones: Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Super Mario Galaxy, and others.

Mario sucked a plethora of balls in Sunshine, but I might want to play those two games. What others can POSSIBLY be good?

I hate you and your Wii ways. Go Xbox 360 FTW. Wii is just too hard to handle and of what I've seen the games eat more shit than 2 Girls 1 Cup...if you know what I mean...

Regardless be safe out there. Dont start 2008 by being at the hospital having your stomach pumped from drinking so much alcohol. That happend to a friend of mine, and i got like an earful from his parents... of course its always MY fault sheesh. But yeah know your limits, and for god sakes dont drive home drunk or have your friend whos equally trashed drive you home.
Get a cab and deal with getting your car the next day. Seriously.

Sorry, it was just so great, but he's definitely right. Don't just get yourself killed, because then we'll have to hear you bitch about it on Newgrounds, and same with if you have your stomach pumped. Wait, so why did the parents blame you, did you like hand him a keg or something?

It doesn't make much sense. I don't really understand what's supposed to be going on, so maybe if you made that clearer we could tell you a little more. I don't particularly like the blobs though. Also, try doing more than just the shapes and do highlighting and shading to make it look more realistic.

I see no harm in that, sometimes two nooblets working together learn faster and they could end up being a dynamic duo as time goes on.

Eherm, a little bit of advertising, but if you'd like to find an animator or ASer, you could look on the link in my thread. Sorry that it sounds like ads, but I'm just trying to help people get their seeking more out there and now people can have a smaller thread to look around.

Wow, this has definitely been done like 45 times, but anyways, lets hope it actually comes through this time. I'd say the last two are really good. I do like them all, except for the first. It's too boring and overly filtered looking.

First part goes into the main timeline.
Second part goes into the bullet if it's duplicated. You'd have to change it a little if you do attachMovie(). Don't ask me to show you how to do attaching/duplicating or else I'll just think you're going to take all of our script and putting it in your game. Look through AS: Main.

Look in the Downloads section for one of the .fla's with a three frame piece of pre-loaders and other Newgrounds Assets. You will find a pre-loader in here with the Newgrounds sunbeams and they're already done within it. That's how you should do it.

I believe it's on the 2nd frame.
