This one is a more efficient way of doing it:

AS3: Rotating With Matrices

what about xml tutorial ? I'm getting "...well formatted" error while working with it.

From now on I'd prefer if anyone with simple questions and /or tutorial requests would try to keep those in a different thread, or by PMing someone you'd like to help you.

If people keep posting that stuff here, things will get cluttered.

Thank you ^_^.

I've made a tutorial on Digital Clocks :)

As3 ftw!

Platformer script.

Sorry to be blunt.....but the platformer tutorial is very poorly detailed.

Not added =(.

AS3: Simple Filters

vCam in AS3

I didn't make this but I think it may be very useful to put down as I haven't seen another vCam in AS3 out.

I've got some pretty advanced AS3 / Flex 3 articles/tutorials/code at Pixelwelders. Typically not for beginners, though.

Wow. This really could not be more convenient. I'm just learning AS3 now.

AS3: SWF Protection tut!!

I made an Inventory System tutorial.

Here is some seriously technical links for advanced people (good reads for non flex users, but largely pointless for those without Flex).
A view under the hood of the cool new profiler from flex Surprise for Flash users: It is part of the player, not the Flex IDE!
How to roll your own preloader in Flex, but without the Flex framework
The trick to getting embedded SWF files in Flex to behave properly Something I actually wrote myself. Yes, it is a code dump, but it is also a step by step instruction in how to perform this specific activity. No, it does not explain why things is done the way they are. It is for serious people who can figure that out by themselves, once they see the code.

That "Stop Coding!" blog is looks like it'll be a REALLY good resource. Thanks for that, henke.

A while ago I had posted a thread intended to go here on Closures in AS3. I didn't post it here, but it's here:

Closures in Actionscript 3

At the time of posting, I thought they were more of a 'gee whiz' sort of thing, but I've actually found them very useful several times since then. They might take a minute to wrap your head around and may look a little weird at first, they can actually make your code look and read much more simply when appropraitely placed.

I'll probably write another quick one in a little while.

When is this being updated?

Add AS3: Preloader please :)

Requesting AS3: Sockets!
Can't find a good socket tutorial anywhere! They all either don't work or are way too complicated.

Is anyone going to update this, itd be really nice to also see categories.

IE, Beginner, Intermediate, etc

It gets updated every 30 posts. And AS3 has been out a while, where's the tutorials !? :P

Might make another if i can be bothered to learn it

well I finally figured out how to make a plat former after like a week of pure coding, and you may say, but there are all ready as3 plat former tut's, but do theirs let you walk up and down hills, I think not.
