It takes time - and yes, you will. My parents are worried about the time I'm spending looking at lips (then trying to redraw them...)

But seriously, that shouldn't be too much of a problem and its is our fairest bet. I'm not sure how your planning on importing these files to a compatible format for NG, but so long as get the .spa's and .spl's, you should be fine, right? We both know that Flash 1 exports can be opened with IE, so maybe an .avi is available as an option. If not let me know and with some instructions, I'll be happy to help you out any way.

Flash 8 will open those files, I think. Then you simply export as a .swf .

What? No way. :O That's pretty cool.

Hmm, so Scalene would still have to deal with library naming issues then since some of our symbols or tweens might be named the same way, huh?

Yes, the Flash 8 method is the plan. And there may be library naming issues - something I did not think about. Please change all objects you use to <yourname>_ObjectName - Mmkay? I'll double check it for you later, though.

March 30, but the earlier parts can get in, the better.

Oh, good, i have time. Anyway, I'm gonna attempt to lipsync in here, regardless of the lack of audio, and it's gonna look very simple and childish, due to the fact that I was a baby when this crap was out! *Snaps fingers twice*

Whhhhaaaat? You going to do some blind lip synching. As if that wasn't hard enough. I admire the size of your balls. :P

I miss being able to drag keyframes into other layers. Plus, the whole timeline and current frame vieing bar thingy is the most annoying thing ever concived my man-kind since America's Funniest Home Videos.

i guess it would be cheating if i made it in flash 8 and saved it as a flash 1 file ... right?

That would be out-right blasphemy. :P

But Flash 1 is actually pretty fun working in when you get used to it's retro-ness.

A tip: If you have a webcam, record yourself doing the lipmovements, then put the frames in Flash 1. It's how I'm doing the red lips. Which I should really finish.

I would rape you if you did that. :)

Anyway, I have ways of telling. Mainly checking the file's vector style - Flash 1 saves vectors differently to the newer flashes. But there are also other ways.

Can I join? This collab is such an awesome idea. But can the trial work on a Mac? If it can't, then sadly, I won't be able to, but I sure hope it does...

You're certainly free to join. But I'm not sure if Flash 1 is Mac compatible. Only one way to find out--why don't you give it a shot?

Methinks it won't, but if you install a Windows Shell on your Mac - a very good idea - it will.

We do. Once I'm done with my half (I hope to God I'm done today) I'll share it, and you can all see it. With sound, I think, if I can pull it off.

Well, you know the intro to the Rocky Horror Picture Show? The lips?

I'm doing that, but I'll be saying, "LET'S DO, THE TIMEWARP AGAIN!"

Also - if you're stuck for ideas, view this.

It's a clip from the film - and I love it. Also good if you want to draw the Rocky Horror Characters and can't remember who does what, and dance move ideas.

I gon't think those huge teeth will fit in flash

I don't know why I'm bumping this

Bah. The lips thing doesn't look right without anti-alias. So, I'm going with the no-talent option: Text jumping in the screen from random directions. Though, it really looks good. (Note to self: Bring entry of 'The' forward 3 frames.)

You know what? Working in this has REALLY helped my animation skillz. Anyone got any troubles with the program, or any portal buddies who might be interested in doing this?

I just drafted up what I expect to do in my current flash and copy it onto the Flash one movie. Also, for lipsyncing, I use a special system I learned from RWappin movies.

You'd be outta luck asking me: I'm barely ever here, 'cept for small updates.

Oh, yeah, I'm about 1/3 done.

If there's an issue with the amount of people that we have, we could always "remix" the song so that it's shorter and reflects each persons quick scene. If there aren't that many people, then splicing together a few mp3's shouldn't be too hard either.

My elbow stinks.

No, I'm going on a recruiting spree as soon as I get off my ass and finish my part. It probably won't be a problem.

Almost done. Got at least 2/3 done. Also, good luck getting new recruits, cuz the work needed for this collab is pretty unappealing. Still, someone out there is retro enough for this!

I shall be an hero and get some recruits, don't you worry.

1/3 done.

Hey dudes, Flash 1 is fucking up my vista and its not for the Mac, so I don't think I'm gonna be able to do this collab. Sorry.

Just in case, I'm sending RWappin a note on deviantart.

Oh, yeah, the draft for mine is on DA. Here ya go:
