They're already past their prime, just enjoy the songs they already put out. Chop Suey was pretty awesome.

Well, the longer you wait, the better your submissions will be!

Hey, I want to buy a Flash book because I'm kind of tired of the sporadic tutorials and how linear information is very hard to find.

I'm looking for something that would help me with Actionscript 3.0 (I've been using Actionscript 2.0) and something that focuses more on game development rather than website development. Artsy topics are good, but I'd rather have the actionscript be the main focus instead of the side dish.

I was looking at Adobe Flash CS3 Professional Bible and I wondered if that was any good?

You mean this? That's Castle Crashers! :D

Oh, thanks! That's a console game though, meh.

Is the picture on the top right above the square ad from a real game? And if it is, could you tell me the title or give me the link?

I hope you idiots also realize that about every other Flash from Newgrounds has been stolen by this prick as well.

And you know what, there's Hentai and Rule 34 and just because you don't fucking like it doesn't mean you have the right to bash it. None of you are perfect either. I mean, seriously, I'm pretty sure you all do some weird stuff and hentai isn't really all that weird anyhow. As for stealing? The pictures are freely distributed so if you think that it's a crime to take these freely distributed pictures and tie them into a neat little package, too bad: I can't cure stupid.

As for my hentai galleries, I still wrote in the codes (which isn't only a few button lines), made a few brush strokes, and put more effort into them than most hentai galleries out there. And most importantly, I submitted it to Newgrounds, not Download-and-Post-It-On-Your-Own-Site.co m

Another thing:
If I knew who made these pictures, I'd give them credit and if they asked, I'd more than willingly remove the pictures. Why the hell would a hentai artist even make pictures if not to be spread like wildfire through the internet anyhow? And unlike Mr. Humval.com who HEAVILY advertises his site, I make no money off the crap I submit save the few cents I rake in every week from the rev share.

No, but while pictures are freely tossed around in the forums I get them from, flash are not.

So, uhh, several of my flash - hentai galleries - were posted on a site without my knowing about it and I can't contact the site owner because their verification code system doesn't show the friggin' verification code!

Here's the site:
http://humval.com/

By the looks of it, it looks the owner submitted it himself. I know it's publicity but I at least want to be acknowledged to have made it. And I at least want people to ask my permission!

Thanks! And I use AS2 since I'm not a great scripter.

I see, thanks!

How do you post AS on BBS properly? I've seen people do it and it's properly indented and quoting these posts doesn't seem to reveal the technique. Whenever I post a code, it always ignores the indents.

Hey guys, I have this button inside a graphic, which is inside a movie clip because I wanted the button to be animated in a similar manner to the background. Now, I wanted it so that the button moves the MAIN timeline to a specified frame, let's call it "example".

So, here's the exact code:
on (release){
gotoAndStop("example");
}

Now, I realized that since it is on the specified frame is on a different timeline as the button, it won't do it. How can you make it so that it does? Other than putting the button on the main timeline?

There actually are atoms in space. If you're trying to argue that space is a vacuum because of the spaces in between these atoms, then the same can be argued for the atmosphere since there's always space in between the atoms.

Yeah, around my neighborhood there are skaters that keep clogging up the street. I'd like to 'accidentally' drive through them one day.

If you haven't noticed, I'll have to point out that I make Hentai Galleries and I have recently introduced a slideshow feature which uses the setInterval method. The FPS which is set at 20 so I have this little animation which goes for 3 seconds or 60 frames. The pictures go at 3,000 milliseconds each but I noticed that the animation didn't run in exactly in tandem with the pictures. I changed the frames of the animation to 61 and the milliseconds to 3,055. They coincide for about 40 pictures but after that the difference soon becomes noticeable.

Oh, well, I'll suppose I'll have to be satisfied with integers.

If you want to count milliseconds, you can
use a Timer class instance.
If that doesn't answer your question,
then I have no clue what you're asking.

I'm using intervals

So, that is a yes?

Hello, I was just wondering if milliseconds have to be an integer in ActionScript or does it also function as a decimal (e.g. 4000.6 milliseconds)?

That would be a little bit hard to gauge even if you do the whole "Is this review helpful?" vote since often the most scathing, and sometimes the most helpful, remarks are branded as heresy while sycophantic, and therefore useless, compliments are viewed favorably.

Hey, that seems like a pretty simple function! It's really easy to stop too.

Yes, by using intervals.

AS: Intervals

stop();
timeInt = setInterval(function () {
_root.nextFrame();
}, 3000);

Woah, that's exactly what I need! Thanks!

then you only need one frame per each slide.

Hmm, doesn't seem to work - I tested it and it just plays normally.

Thanks! Now all I need is 25 Pictures of the Vietnam War and I'm set.

I was just wondering if you could anti-alias shrunk images like .bmp and .jpg. I hate importing pictures onto my Flash projects and then having to do with crappy pictures because they get pixelated.

Nevermind, I found out that _global. works it out.

On the button:

Actually, I was thinking that maybe it's because it's on different timelines (One is on the main and the other is on a button in a movie clip). Do I have to add _root somewhere? And if so, where?

Well, now it stops, but it still doesn't go to the next frame.

On the button:

on (release) {
quiz = true;
}

So, I have it where this movieclip that is a quiz pops up. I want it so that once the quiz is finished, it goes to the next frame. So here's my code:

quiz = false
function onEnterFrame() {
if (quiz = true){
nextFrame();
}
if (quiz = false){
stop();
}
}

I want to create a boolean variable 'quiz' and set it to false. I then put a code in to the last correct answer:

on (rollover) {
quiz == true;
}

Oddly enough, when the flash gets to the quiz, it somehow initiates play(); or continues to play... it passes my quiz completely, along with the rest of my Flash ignoring stop(); codes.

Hey can anyone explain how the ads on the userpage works? I've been wondering if it's by views or if the person actually has to click on it, or even further: has to click on it and then sign up for whatever the banner advertises.

No, otherwise the submissions of an author would be all lumped together.
