Excellent resource - animation techniques

Fantastic summary of a number of key elements to animation - highly recommended for anyone interested in flash animation.

Some of the jokes are a little lame but overall a valuable resource.

This tutorials is HELPFUL (Rare on NG)

You have made a great tut, but I cannot get the cam to work right

Symbol=camFrame, Layer=actions, Frame=1: Line 1: '{' expected
function camControl():Void {

Symbol=camFrame, Layer=actions, Frame=1: Line 9: Unexpected '}' encountered
}

^I get that message when testing, I dunno how to check wot AS im using. hope u can shed some light coz i wood love to use this technique.

thanks

Well it's one of very few issues.

Either you copied the script wrong (which is mortifying, from what I hear.

You may need to change your publish settings to use AS 2.0 (only available in MX 2004 or later).

Or you put the script in the wrong part of the camera itself. Remember the camera movie clip has 4 layers... either one can have the script, really, but it has to be in the MC, not applied to it.

Those are the only 3 possible solutions I've encountered with people not being able to use the camera. Otherwise it works.
