YOU MUST PM ME IF YOU WANT A PART, OTHER WISE I WILL NOT ACCEPT IT!!!

What section covers movieclips then? I didn't see a part for movieclips in general : /

I'd do that part :)

Please elaborate. Is there going to be one big movieclip tut or is there gonna be one for Flash/Sound/AS?

Cause I can do the flash part (I'll cover movie clips usefulness for looping and use sprites as an example ;D)

Any version, i have 8, and CS3 users can save as a flash 8 file. Aslong as it can take as2, its fine.

There are about 40 new tutorials, and about 40 old ones. I'm not just going to copy them though, they'll be redone with the new design and made hopefully clearer. Do some AS3 tuts dELta, you're one of the best around ;)You could also do 3D again, just convert your old one, it can't get any better :).

Ya might wanna fix that.

YOU MUST INTALL THE FONTS BEFORE OPENING THE FILE!!! Otherwise you get errors like this, install the fonts and re-open the .fla and it should work.

If you want to do a part on how, buttons, movieclips and graphic symbols work, then go ahead :).

Assuming and hoping I'll have time, I'd love to join in on this :).

Sorry I don't have time to read through everything right now, but I'd love to get involved this year :D!

Response to The Tutorial Collab '07 2007-07-23 17:13:09


Good luck on the collaboration. I've had Flash for about a year and a half, and I'm just not interested anymore because I was never able to do anything good, no matter how hard I try. Seeing as how this year's collab. will have much more tutorials based on art, I may hopefully be inspired to try Flash once again!

P.S.: If I do get inspired to make a non-repulsive Flash because of you, I'll give credit where it is due. ;)

I have a couple of questions.
Should we put everything inside a MC or do we work directly in the template fla.?
Do we have to add the actionscript to the buttons and all that stuff? or de we just do the keyframes and let it run normally?

1. Just work on the stage, i'll convert it into a mc once it's done.
2. They are already done, just leave them.

Well, the only AS that is working for me is the media player one. There is no actinscript at all in the buttons.
Sorry if i didnt understand it.
Are you going to add it later? or is my file wrong?

I'm still having the same problem, only this time it's just the next button.

Try re-opening the original template after you've installed the fonts and see if you get the same error.

Same. I don't think my mac is taking one of the fonts too well because flash gives me the the font error message.

I have finished with my AS3 Flex tutorial. I've included 3 swf files that need to be linked to some text. They're references to compiled code. I couldn't import them into the fla, so could you please upload them to a site and link them in the areas specified in the e-mail I sent you?

Thank you very much for letting me a part of this again, Depredation!

A mini-tutorial to help you download the fonts:
1) Download the package that Depredation sent you and open it with WinZip or an alternative program.
2) Find the computer's font folder on your C drive. If you're using Windows, it should be called something like C:\Windows\Fonts or something like that (if you're using a Mac, go find someone else to help you. :P).
3) Copy the fonts from Depredation's package and paste them into the font folder.
4) Your computer should now automatically download the font.

Drawing hands.

Those are 3 frames.

And no, i didnt touch the " dont touch it!" folder.

It's fine enq, it's just looping over and over because there is no Stop actionscript.
It may simply be an error on Deps part, I dunno, maybe it's just the way the template is. Once he imports to the main swf, maybe it'll work

I see, put this on the first frame on any layer 'stop();' and it should be fine.

FONT ERRORS

I don't have a mac, but here are the fonts for macs.

http://www.dafont.com/mank-sans.font
http://www.dafont.com/y2k-neophyte.font

Try downloading them and unzipping them to wherever the font folder is on a mac. Then restart flash and it should be fine.
