It's extremely laggy. I don't really understand how people use the blur effects without freezing or lagging. Please help!

Make sure you set the blur filter to low quality and don't make it too big, that should help a bit...

I did! Your parts rocked, Chomper!

Haha, thanks a lot! I had never made any real flash before except by those silly tests and stickmen. =P It's really great to see people enjoy what I can do! You guys can expect more animations from me soon! =D

Also, I haven't seen your submission, but I really like your other flash! And congrats on that front page! =)

Parts sent! Hope you like them! =)

IM GAY LIKE THAT.

SupaPeeves? Do you have my all three of my parts? You haven't responded during the many times i've asked you that...

SupaPeeves, maybe you could post a list with all the parts you already have, just to make sure everyone's parts were successfully received. =)

That's weird, it should be working. I just tried a couple thing, and figured you might be using the Subselection tool (A), not the Selection tool (V). The subselection tool will only highlight the movieclip even if you double click it, unlike the selection tool.

If that still didn't do it, try selecting the movie clip on your library and then double click it's small preview, like I tried to show you on the image below, so you can move it.

If none of these worked, I really don't think I can help you, try looking or some tutorials for your specific flash version, that might be it. Good luck.

No I know how to animate :P

Oh, haha, sorry. Anyway, to move that cross you should just double-click the movie clip, now you should be "inside" it. You can then drag it, so the + will be wherever you want. Hope this helps now... =P

You need to add more frames, otherwise it can't move.

Right click, let's say, the frame 10, and select 'insert keyframe'. With the frame 10 selected, move your symbol around. Finally, right click any frame between 1 and 10 and select 'create motion tween'.

Having done that, Flash will automatically create the frames between 1 and 10, and you got your smooth movement! =D Once your motion tween is working, your timeline should look like the one below.

Also, this is really basic, so I'd recommend you doing some research or watching some tutorials to help you getting used to Flash! Hope this is what you mean! =P

PART

Hah, that was pretty good! Maybe you could use the "Houston, we have a problem"! ;)

Are you sure you're doing this? You probably forgot something or skipped some steps, motion tweens are really easy to make.

Thanks for the kind words!

I should be sending my part to SupaPeeves soon. This collab is gonna be awesome! =D

Here's the longer version!

Please compare it with this version and tell me which one you like the most! =)

Have you tried some of those? ;)

I like this one particularly, you should check it out!

Well done! I really like it!

I think after the lazer the music should go back to happy and have the white dude still listening to music as the t-rex leaves or something.

Yes?

Haha, thanks, and yeah I considered making it longer and just leave the white guy listening to music for awhile as the T-rex leaves, but I don't know, ending with a lazer is always easier =P. I guess if I couldn't make the ending look cool, it could ruin the whole thing.

I guess I'll try to make that ending, and post it here later to see if you guys think I should keep it or not! =)

Hah, nice =P

Here's my second part! It's kinda random, but whatever =P

This is the audio portal song I used.

Some feedback would be appreciated, so I can send it to SupaPeeves as soon as possible! Hope you guys like it! =)

There are some pretty good ones here!

Guys... I don't wanna ba an ass, but I think you are getting off-topic way too often. We don't want this thread to die, but we also shouldn't flood it with chat.

After TommyVF posted his part, for example, I gave him some suggestions and stuff. I believe he never got to see them though, as right after that lots of people started talking about pointless things, and my post got burried under a few pages of fight and then gay stuff =P

Also, theactionscripter just posted a preview, and I gave some advice I believe would really help him improving. I wouldn't want to see it forgotten cause other people went off-topic...

Sorry for my poor english onde again, I just want this collab to be as good as possible! =)

At 2/8/09 09:03 AM, theactionscripter wrote: Sorry for double post.

But my PART just got much better!

Well yeah, this is certainly an improvement, but I think the drawings could still use some work. Have you tried using the brush tool? It's pretty easy to get used to!

Also, since there are only two characters and a few more mouths, you should really consider putting a lot of effort on them, make some details, if you use the line tool, bend them to make it look smoother, and all that stuff. Good graphics are the key to a good tween animation!

He probably wouldn't draw them, but we still can! =D

You could try adding some shine. Of course that depends on the light source. Also, The forehead does look odd.

Agh, sorry for the double post... that's what I meant. Please forgive my poor english =P

Yeah, I surely plan to credit them. I'll post it once I some more of my part done.

Hey, I was wondering, can I use music from the audio portal?

Check out this new shoe design from Puma. Looks familiar, huh?

:it's a pretty cool shoe, anyway

Gah, sorry for the double post... gotta correct that though. There really should be a way to edit our posts...

I meant blur here, not glow.

Some gangster money shit.

What do you think?

That's pretty good! How did you do that lazer though? It looks like a white fill with a blue outline and some glow. Maybe it'd look more lazer-like if instead of the blue outline you added some blue glow... but that's just my opinion, it's your call. =)

It's good to see some great parts are arriving! I'm working on a second one too. It should be ready tomorrow, but it probably won't, cause I feel lazy... but don't worry, I'll finish it!

R-Type Meets Shoop

That was simple, but pretty cool, actually. However, I think the lazer doesn't really look lazer-like... try making it white with a blue glow filter and some blur, it might look better! =)

At 1/31/09 10:49 PM, Cantdoright wrote: Also my latest update, is right here!

I think the gradient lazer is still kinda weird... try using a white movie clip vith some blur and a light blue glow, that's what I used, check out my part and see if you like it! =)

I would like somebody to PM me, I'll send the details, then they could upload to a file sharing site, such as MegaUpload or whatever. You need to have a voice like those of advertisement, clear and official but cheesy at the same time. You will be listed as voice. If anyone is interested, please, PM me.

Try using the Voice Actor Wanted thread. Good luck!
