Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Generally speaking, its a bad sign when the OP's highest rated flash is a clockday flash..

No one is going to teach you programming..
Everyone here either taught themselves or took a class.

I'm winning!

lol sadly, you are winning.
I haven't seen anything impressive at all in this thread..

That legal bud shit is well shit..
The only decent substitute for weed is spice(us customs have actually started seizing spice because its so effective).
I buy it at spicesale.us
I think erowid also has some stuff on spice too.

Obvious troll is obvious..

You don't seem to understand.
It doesn't matter whether the character is a complete ripoff or just fanart..either way it will be a red flag for any sponsor that you show your game to.
You will not get a sponsorship unless you use your own art.

However, I would not trust most Newgrounds users as a partner in a project, as most of them will drop it (I'm guilty of it myself) and let the other people carry the weight.

He wasn't referring to collaborations, he was talking about not using copyrighted sprites and using original artwork.

Noone is going to write the code for you.
We gave you some base codes and its up to you to make them work.

So basically your not willing to pay anything, but hope you will get a sponsorship and then will pay..

don't think so..

Hmm..I'm more comfortable as a programmer then an animator and I'm usually uninterested in collabs, but I remember watching how nicely the previous versions of this collab turned(5 shades of purple, 5 shades of green) so I'm going to give this one a shot.
Add me to the list.

Are you a programmer or an artist?

if(_root.character.hitTest(_root.door))
{
_parent.gotoAndStop("Scene Name");
}

3. How can I make that when I click over an object a video or sound appears? Simply using buttons or is there other way to do it?

Video I'm not sure about but:
With buttons just put the sound on the over frame of the button.
With movieclips put the sound on the second frame of the movieclip

onClipEvent(enterFrame)
{
this.onRollOver = function() 
{
		gotoAndStop(2);
}
this.onRollOut = function() 
{
		gotoAndStop(1);
}
}

Hope this all helps.

FBF is frame by frame..using this animation technique with a high frame rate of 20-24 FPS with create a very smooth animation.
As the other person mentioned, you really should avoid using sprites at all..instead use your own art and animate it.
This tutorial is very helpful for someone starting out..particularly the walk cycles section.
I suggest your first animation be a walk cycle and then apply the same idea to other more complex animations.

You don't seem to understand that you meet none of the requirements to host a collab..
New Collab Rules

I'm not particularly interested but I recommend that you post the engine so artists can see what they are working with.

Why hello there!

Well at least you admit to the only thing that really matters.

What the OP doesn't realize is that some developers are professionals and don't have the time to dick around creating accounts and submitting their flashes to every other site so they simply ask their sponsor to do it for them.

Its what you get for stealing cs4.

A $20 grand prize?

Something tells me this contest will be incredibly lame..

A friend of mine introduced me to some Marc M cartoons.

Great list of music sites there.
I loved incompetech he has some great music there.

Still looking for an artist is anyone interested?

Mouse.hide();

It doesn't work..thats why I'm posted this.

Hey,
I made a function that basically determines time and stores it in a variable.
I want to be able to use that variable on another frame but I can't figure out how to make the function return the variable.
Heres the code:

_root.start_time=getTimer();
timeplayed function (elapsed_times)
{
    elapsed_time = getTimer()-start_time;
	_root.elapsed_times=Math.floor(elapsed_time/1000)
	return (elapsed_times);
}

Thanks!

Flash 8 and theres no timeline as long as its done well.

Pixely or smooth?
framerate ?

Again, the concept is up to you (both of those are great ideas to base a character off of).
It should smooth the match the look of the game.
And framerate is 24, but I would like to see just a standing pose first before..to make sure its ok before I give the go to animate it.

Ok sorry for the delay..I thought noone would respond.

Anyways the character needs to be:
25-30 pixels in height
12-16 pixels in width

I'm not gonna be strict on the character design but I was thinking something robotic-based.
