The filesize limit changed to 10 MB. I was also shocked to see Flashes come in above 5 megs, as I'm so used to seeing them much smaller.

Guess who's back from the grave.

And, that would be me.

Red Zero's newly revised title menu is now complete.

See it here:

It's forming up quite well, and I just finished the 1st building (Details.)

As I said, it's not finished. The finished product will blow away the doubters that I have, it'll blow away even myself.

WARNING: THIS IS UN-FINISHED!

This my re-make of the title menu to Red Zero. It's being updated daily, so make sure you look at it every day.

1. I noticed the lines not being straight. I have no idea why that happened, I'll fix it anyway.

2. Now that you bring up that building, I was never really sure how far in the distance it should be....

First off, FINALLY, FINALLY I'VE LEARNED PERSPECTIVE! I've been doing too much 2D stuff, and it had no sense of depth and felt craptastic. Well, now it doesn't look that way.

Anyway, I'm re-making the menu scene from Red Zero. The sidewalk is giving me a problem. It just doesn't fit correctly, perspective wise. Also, I can't get the tiles on the sidewalk to also fit perspective wise, and I can't get the size to be the same exact thing.

Any tips?

If you don't want to make cash off Flash (Heh, it rhymes), you can buy the educational version IF your still in school.

There's also the educational version of 2004 for $100.

CartoonSmart sucks. He just tells you what to do for a whole hour and you end up having his style: NOTHING ORIGINAL.

Really? I implemented Justin's (If that's his name, can't remember) drawing techniques (Drawing JUST LINES, bending them, etc.) with my technique and my drawings have IMPROVED highly.

I also had audio syncing problems in Military Ops. I lowered the frame rate from 20 FPS to 18 FPS, and it fixed the syncing.

Try the FPS.

I recommend this method.

1st off, just because your 13 doesn't mean you'll immediately suck at drawing. I'm 14 and I pump out this almost all the time I use Flash. However, I do have my shitty results, but I always re-do it.

I believe he's asking about commerical-made music inside a Flash.

It won't happen legally.

If your uploading to NG:

.swf size > Audio Quality

I've noticed that 54 or 64 Kbps is a good optimization setting.

I can possibly do animation or writing.

That is correct.

You need to put some more force as the Orc's swinging to show that he's powerful, such as a long sword raise, and his left arm needs to swing more to show he's hitting hard.

Water Reflection Complete

I had to complete it with Photoshop because I don't know how to make the water look like that in MX.

I bought that drawing tutorial from Justin (CartoonSmart's Administrator and person making the tutorial), and I can say this.

I have implemented the way he draws (Using the line tool for most art) along with mine, and the results were amazing.

See here (Bottom left for gallery)

just really zoomed in?

Trace-bitmapped :-p

Besides, there's no way in hell I can do a sky like that.

This was done with the line tool only (excluding paintbucket)

See the power a single tool can make?

That's my hardest part. I can't get the water to look like this .

The distortion is the hardest part for me.

I WOULD LOVE COMMMENTS!!!

He's asking for a lip synch tutorial.
