Response to: basic question (about hit testing). Posted October 27th, 2005 in Game Development

if (_root.player1.hitTest (_root.weapon1)) {
_root.gotoAndPlay (FRAME NUMBER);
}

Using _root doesn't care about scenes. That's why it's best to not use scenes, just a lot of frames. To count up to the absolute frame number that you want to go to, and chnage FRAME NUMBER to that number. For example, if you have 2 scenes, the first scene has 3 frames and the 2nd has 2 frames, the last frame would be 5.

Hope it works :D!

And if it's on the frame try adding an event handler:

_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
if (_root.player1.hitTest (_root.weapon1)) {
_root.gotoAndPlay (FRAME NUMBER);
}
}

Timer:
time = 5;
setInterval(function () {
time--;
_root.timer.text = time;
if (time <= 0) {
// actions once timer hits 0

Not if it's really good resolution and exported smoothly. Sometimes it's hard to detect the pixels it's so smooth :D.

Response to: Need help with cursor Posted October 26th, 2005 in Game Development

Put this on the cursor:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
Mouse.hide();
this._x = _root._xmouse;
this._y = _root._ymouse;
}

Response to: Flash Banner in a web site Posted October 26th, 2005 in Game Development

Upload the SWF thats made with the FLA when you hit CTRL+ENTER or Publish. Then on the site, or editor, you use this code:

<embed src="URL OF SWF" width="550" height="400">

Change URL OF SWF to the URL of the SWF file.

Ok :p... Sorry.

By the way, tell your dad that the MAYA download link (or at least that's what I think it is) doesn't work!

Normally I wouldn't have opened that kind of thing. But the email address said mail@yahoo.com. It detected a virus disallowing me to download the file though.

Very Strange Yahoo Email!! Help!! Posted October 23rd, 2005 in General

I just recieved an email from mail@yahoo.com It held this message:

So I check the attachment and it said a virus was detected (here's a screen shot):

Hopefully I didn't obtain the virus from this since it wouldn't let me open it. I responded saying "The attachment held a virus".

What do I do?

Response to: AS help... Posted October 23rd, 2005 in Game Development

I have a feeling your not going to write it correctly, so here you go, I fixed it for you:


onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.circle._y>=_root.enemy._y) {
enemyjump = true;
} else {
enemyjump = false;
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (enemyjump == true) {
enemyjumping = 4;
updateAfterEvent();
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (enemyjumping > 0) {
enemyjumping -= 1;
updateAfterEvent();
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
enemyjumping += _root.enemy._y;
}

Response to: AS help... Posted October 23rd, 2005 in Game Development

See where you wrote:
if (enemyjump = true) {
Well you can't use the = operator, since it's for assigning variables. If you want to test if it's equal to something (like your trying to do) you use == .

So this code would need to be
if (enemyjump == true) {

So do that for any time your comparing with the = sign.

Listen, stop trying to make a thread just to get attention. Obviously you made this thread by getting ideas from the many other threads like this. No one spells like that. If your gonna try to make it seem real, use more correct spelling vs. wrong spelling. Don't over do it.

Now please leave NG and go play on http://www.nick.com/.

I can't understand why everyone always thinks that there's a bunch of different "flash makers". There's only one. It's called Flash and it was created by Macromedia. If you ever right click and flash movie, you'll see it says Macromedia Flash. Years ago, before I used flash, I knew that that was only one version. There's a free one that I've heard about called LiveSwif try googling it. But I heard it's not too good. Oh, and one more thing:
