Ok I'm 'Active' now. I've just about finished your game Mr.Randomist so if any of you people need a quick bit of programing (non-stole) code, or help then I'll be glad to help. Even if you need a programmer because your just an artist then I'm here so reply here or drop me a PM. ^.^

you can do as2, but i need to see your work brah.

Ok, here's ya go:

Extreme Paddle Ball, by sasuke2910 Type: Game Rating: Ages 13+

I'm a bit over qualified for just a main menu but oh well. I'll do whatever else you need in the collab.

BA is batting average, you get your top 3 solo submissions and average them together to get a BA. If it's under 3.0 you can't start a collab. But that has nothing to do with joining them. :/ But if the author doesn't want anyone with a low BA the he get's to choose of course.

Anyways. I find my self pretty good a code so I'd do the menu/scene selection if you'd have me. :3

I'd rather do it in AS2 but if I must I can do it in AS3... And AS1. X3

Here's one I just whipped up.

I'll post the .fla if anyone wants it.

I will also need someone to make a Preloader and menu screen.

Everyone who helped in the making of the collab will get credit.

SEND ALL FINISHED CLIPS TO Reece_Harper@Live.com.au

(PS. I know I've only got 2 Flash submissions but atleast gimme' a chance ai :D)

Well I remember correctly you have to have at least 3 submissions and the average of the scores has to be above 3.00

But if this passes some how then can do any actionscript you may need. (preloader, menu, etc...)

Well I sent you sir Random.

As for that other one with the evolving alien thing I'm waiting for that artist person to get back to me.

Well wouldn't that make it a it hard for the people who actually want to do it?

Well if ya describe what you want it to look like I'll do it if you credit me for additional animation or something.

Break your movie into scenes so you only have to load one at a time or different danged .fla's.

I swear if this 250mb flash isn't epic I'm gonna be mad. Also what's taking the most space. Music, drawings, bitmaps etc...

I said this to some one just a couple days ago:

No because code is pre-compiled. So when you export your flash as a .swf file all the code is converted in to a different language that flash player can read better. And flash player had no function for re-compiling the code. Sorry

What were you trying to do. There may be an alternative.

Well I would suggest using a program made to convert .swfs in to .avis such as this.
I own it and I've never had a problem with it. If you want I'll convert your .swf.

Yeah, I know right. And it takes quite a bit more disk space.

You all know that when you do weird stuff with the vCam it kill hitTest. >.< Is there any easy work around?

In as2? No. I'd make a refresh function the resets all the variables and just gotoAndPlay the frame before it.

Thanks

Yeah, but if it's your files I'll convert them for ya. But I don't want all of NG's flash on youtube. >.<

What is wrong with this code?

It says it's working fine.

The idea is, if my player is on his running forward (wRunF) animation and he is hit by an enemy, his animation goes to frame 71, which is of him being hurt, does anyone have ANY idea how I can get this to work?

Ok I remember a similar script being posted earlier. LEARN!

if(this.hitTest(_root.Player._root.wRunF )){

Now first of all mc1.hitTest(mc2) you have to movie clips in the mc2 part: "_root.Player._root.wRunF" You should only have one. So:

if(this.hitTest(_root.wRunF )){
Is what I think your thinking.

And this:
_root.Asarath._root.wRunF.gotoAndPlay(71 )();

Again you have 2 movie clips there. If your trying to make Asrath go to frame 71 then you do this.
_root.Asarath.gotoAndStop(71);

If your trying to make wRunF go to 71 then:
_root.wRunF.gotoAndPlay(71)

Understand?

Are the boobs really necessary?

. ... ... Wow, terrible advice. >.<

You can just practice I guess. And I'd suggest frame by frame to get good results.

Well basically I can make do that goomba thing. >.<

I can make an enemy follow you and shoot. But where you jump on a platform or something he's not gonna follow you. He's just gonna stay down there and keep shooting in your direction. If I was making a side-scrolling shooter that is.

Well modifying the functionality of a website is pretty hard. :/ You'd have to create A plug-in like thing. Well it's just difficult try to start smaller. Like simple forms with buttons and stuff.

Ok last bump anyone want in? I can code petty good got it?

Well we gotta see some code here to fix it.

Well if it's one of your own movies then you can send me the .swf and I'll convert it.
But I'm not gonna tell you how because we don't want movies being stolen. >.<

I've got a way to determine the direction of slopes and animate accordingly, and it was more simple than i thought. However, once the player rotates (as per the following code) it won't return to normal. I've tried while/else clauses but they didn't work

code
if(_root.groundhitTest(_x, _y+4, false)) {
if(_root.groundhitTest(_x, _y+4, false)) {
this.rotation = 45;

code

Help is appreciated as always, go easy on me, it's only my first week coding.

Well if your using if(_root.groundhitTest(_x, _y+4, false)) { to check if your diagonal.

Then use if(!_root.groundhitTest(_x, _y+4, false)) { to check if your aren't

Why are all the programmers posting in me "artist wanted" thread. >_<

He gave egoraptor a flash with an under 2.50 score , for shame.

He doesnt need a programmer , he needs an artist AND programmer

Ok then I think I'll believe you on that one. X3

Well you should post some art or code or whatever so we know your good at it.

Well you don't seem to interested in games. Of you are then you can PM me and I'll be the scripter.

*Bump* are they're no artists in need?

I want to make a flash animation then save it as an animated image (gif), but I want it to save EVERY FRAME as a separate image file.

Is that possible? I remember I did it once... But I don't remember how.
Please answer ASAP!

Yes I think if you go File>export>export as movie, and you change the file type to an image format then it will work. But I'm not sure.
