you want to do something with exp? i think thats a bit advanced, u make it sound like baking a cake or something.

Yes, I know I sound like its gonna be easy but I am very dedicated to projects and this just baffles me. I tried to do my own scripting to my idea but when i "fired" the "attack" I would go all the way up to like Level 50(I set it not to go farther) and etc.

Ohhhh!!!! I think I get it now! Do you mean the 3D Camera spin??Well that's done with Swift 3D or some other 3D rendering program. I hope I'm right? was this your question?Anyways, if not, plz post again.

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
this._x = _root._xmouse;
this._y = _root._ymouse;
}

um could i use this to make a game were jsut say theres a fist and when u clcik you punch an object??

if so how could i do that PLZ!!!!!!!

Fargate, I was wondering if you are good at Flash Drawing, instead of programming? I would really be interested in making a game with you that I think has good potential, its just the fact that I'm not that good at programming but I am better an animating. If you are interested contact me at evilshark27@yahoo.com.

Also back on topic, could you look at my message a couple of posts above and give me any advice at all?

Fargate could you make a script for a rpg style fighting game with stats? It's gotta be a hella chellegne but can u do it?

obviously you are an extreme beginner. it's not that easy. if fargate even knows how to do it (which he probably wont), he wouldnt be able to tell u in one post, and he probably wouldnt want to explain it. damn, i hate it when people ask how to make a whole game, they sound so retarded.

As I've mentioned before. I have good programming and animating, it's just my graphics I need to work on. Master Freehand 10. And another general note, IamGod666 is right. It's pretty friggin annoying when ppl you ask for an entire game script. You have to be able to understand Actionscript, and have specific questions. When you ask huge questions that might take me 30 mins to explain,or more,It's obvious you need to start with easier scripting. Don't try to jump around, you'll just get really confused and won't learn anything.

I feel really sorry about not being able to answer many questions latley or post anything new, but I've been really weighed down with tests and exams.So now In advance I'll say, don't bother asking me any questions between the 22Dec. and the 29Dec. : I'll be away. And one other thing, Merry Christmas. :).

Oh yeah... and one more thing. WE HAVE REACHED 100 POSTS IN THIS THREAD. 100 as of this one, which is the whole reason I'm posting this :). W0000000000000000000000000000000TTTTTTTTTT

Great job, guys - this topic is still here on the BBS, on the Flash forum - I've seen this a while ago, and it's still here, and with four pages of posts! Great job - keep it up! A lot of users, maybe even some pros, may find this useful.

Yes thats the point, I'm ok at simple scripting but not the best. I am better at animation than anything though. I was just wondering if you could help me witht the harder scripting, but i see where you are coming from. It does take a long time to explain thats why I never post these kinds of threads, to many newbies what the experience guys to do all the work for them. I am working on a project right now that I make into a game but Experience Points just make my head go blank. Also, I never asked you to do scripting for me, just your advice.

No I never thought that.... All I'm was saying is that people should know there level and be precise with there questions.

Yes I understand what ur saying, some of them people are to lazy to try.

No, it when they're fightin and when one of them attacks, u see them look like they're in slo mo

dude, thats easy. just make it go over more frames when u do motion tween or frame by frame. if u mean like actual ripples, i suggest jasc paint shop pro 7 or photoshop 7.0. u need advanced photo enhancing or painting programs to do ripples.

how do you use these scripts?

I need to know how I would make a scoring system for a shooting game.

no, u bow down to me!

Here's the plan, cen sombody post a script that:

when my MC "character" colliedes with my MC "pieceofwall" character stops walking?

Here's my plan, try it yourself, then ask for help.

Do you know how to use variables? If you do, just create a script where text shows up and every time you kill something make it add one to the text. I don't know the exact scripting but its easier than you think.

Hey, Fargate, I have a proposition for you. I am wanting to make a game similar to the style of Channel Cat's Metal Slug MX, Alien Hominid, etc. The thing is, I can draw fairly well (check out the movies I've uploaded), but I can't animate too great with Flash (I'm used to After Effects), and I don't know a thing about programming.

If you would like to collaborate with me on this game, that would be awesome. The basics of it is this guy's, Rick Wolfbane's, girlfriend has been kidnapped, her place ransacked. Rick vows revenge, and seeks out her assaulters. The cool thing is, Rick's family has a cool secret: they have the power of the wolf (werewolves), which he controls with the amulet arund his neck.

Players would go through four or five levels, with a cinematic in-betweener splitting the scenes (kind of like what Blizzard Entertainment does). If you're interested, give me a buzz.

If you're not, that's cool, too. If anyone else is decent at programming, and would like to give this a stab, email me at msf648s@smsu.edu.

p.s. Here's the prelims for Rick Wolfbane, in both human and wolf form.

check out nightfall studios, link provided below. i have tons of files similar to the code you've been posting. by the way, i used to post here a while ago, when there actually were some experienced posters. if anyone is interested in asking tom if we could make a better 'learn flash' section that was more conspicuous and had more advanced techniques, let me know.

Yes, i think we should have a Newbie Flash and Expert Flash section, it would be much better for others.

Toyed around with the design a bit... finished everything but the guy's face.

Forgot to delete the background layer...

how do i make this? I have tried many ways but the damn thing doesnt work.

when my MC "character" colliedes with my MC "pieceofwall" character stops walking?

Does anyone know the script for telltargets?

It's located in this thread, somewhere, I think. If not come back and some one might help you. Im too lazy to tell you.
