It's pointless with a whole AS page for one command.

Agreed. If you're going to make a basic AS tut, keep an eye on the forums for questions that are repeatedly asked but haven't already been covered in the existing AS threads. I don't often see questions about _visible, and it doesn't really justify its own topic IMO.

Yea, I thought so. Are there any you think should be made that havnt been made yet?

why not make an as topic on all of the properties?

what about make some tutorials for a spesific project, f.eks:
- Pacman
- Snake
- Puzzle
?

-KhAo- is making an XML sockets one which will hopefully become a series (points gun to his back : ))

Can anybody help me here? I was learning API a while ago, and I think of making a game. I already drew the main lines for the map, BUT, whenever I try to fill it it wont be filled!! Can you tell me why?? This is the code. I even made the lines larger so that that wasnt a reason to not be filled:

_root.createEmptyMovieClip("Base", 13);
with ("Base") {
lineStyle(2, 0x09D741, 100);
beginFill(0x07C73C, 50);
moveTo(-2, 250);
lineTo(252,250);
moveTo(250,410);
lineTo(250,248);
moveTo(1,248);
lineTo(1,402);
moveTo(-5,400);
lineTo(255,400);
endFill();
}

Can anybody please help me?

This doesn't really belong in this thread (-liam-'s API thread would have been a better choice), but you only need to use moveTo at the start of the shape.

_root.createEmptyMovieClip("Base", 13);
with (Base) {
lineStyle(2, 0x09D741, 100);
beginFill(0x07C73C, 50);
moveTo(-2, 250);
lineTo(252,250);
lineTo(250,248);
lineTo(255,400);
lineTo(1,402);
endFill();
}

Thanks! I really was going to post it on -liam-'s API thread, but I had this window and liams API thread open. So i accidentally posted it here. Thanks anyway... I didn't know I just had to use it once. Thanks.

AS: XML For Online Interactivity by: well.. ME

I know I have posted everywhere but everyone has kept on redirecting me or giving me info I cant use. "Please!" Can someone send me a .fla and a .swf of:

When you press the button "A" the frame rate changes to 30 Frames per second.
When you press the button "B" the frame rate changes to normal Frames per second.

You mean something like...an arcade tutorial for all those arcade games?Hmm...

I was just wondering if anyone has covered a 3d movement type game.I'm still perfecting a code for one and should be done soon.

Un-perfected version of code.

Notice that if you go forward far enough,it ends up looking like you fall over.That is bug #1.The rest mostly have to do with boundaries.

Just wondering.

Don't be lazy, look at the list!

AS: 3Dimension - Intermediate by dELta_Luca

But I doubt you will understand 'em, real 3D is not something people like me and you can do. I mean, in delta's tutorials it isn't just _xscale = _yscale += 5 :P

I will understand 3D at some point, but for now I'm just going to make games people will like instead of magnificent actionscript wonders. :D

Yah I know,your right :)

But whatever I have in mind is probably way more basic or something.Whatever.

You can't make me be un-lazy!

LOL, dude, of course it doesn't work.
You're using width and height, meaning that it becomes bigger and bigger, BUT the farthest point is not in the middle of the screen, so it just goes upwards as you go foward, meaning that it gives an illusion of going down..

No,the screen looks like your character is starting to fall,but yes,it's all because of the width and height things.Falling is fun.

Guess what...

...I gave it a try.My 3d sucks :(

Can someone make an html: main in the programming forum if there isn't already one? It would be really usefull.

html isn't programming and it takes 50 minutes to learnn... just read the tutorial on w3schools.com

Is it me or is programming one of the BBS's slower forums?

Ok, thanks. What about php? Whats a good way of learning that?

I laugh at the prospect, HTML is baby stuff, there are like 30 tags in the whole "language" lol.
