Tutorials in flash?
I for one like text-based tutorials with examples better than movies. Or like gotoandlearn.com, that works.
Besides that, I don't know how many people still use AS2 but I asume it's getting less and less. There are enough tutorials online for AS2.
It's a good tutorial if you compare it with others here on NewGrounds though ;)
AS2 is still very popular :D
?.?
that's supposed to be simple? hauhuahuahua seriously...
I need help
please add me BigBerry101 and help me
eh?
dude the hit Test doesnt make any sense because all you said is
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if(_root.OBJECT1.hitTest(_root.OBJECT 2)) {
//whatever you want it to do
}
}
where "whatever you want it to do" means you can put tons of stuff to make actions, but you didnt said how to USE them, like
_root.stop, okay all i understand is that i can use it to stop something, but WHAT? and the "walls and barriers in games" all you did was write this._y-=4
all i understand is that something is going to happen at y- 4 OR that simply writting this._y-=4 (or any other coordinate) would make a wall there! understand the _y=#, that means when the character reaches that point something is going to happen but you didnt put how to make it happen!
_root.GoToAndPlay is for movies i guess or to make stages
this._x+= # is SURELY not enough to make a wall, it just tells Flash where its going to be but you didnt said or teached how to make the code to create a wall or a platform!!
I tried to do this:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if(_root.MAN.hitTest(_root.GROUND)) {
_root.stop(MAN); this._y+=282;
}
}
(the platform were at y+ 282, but the 282 is for a single point right? not for the whole platform!!!)
but he still goes trought it (i know how to make him move and fall)
and i DID see if the names were correct and they were, this part of your tutorial doesnt make any sense
(the platform was at y+ 282)
I am pretty sure that _root.stop ISNT to make the character unable to go trought a wall, but with your demonstration with the yellow face, that part has walls, so that means with everything till the demonstration can make me be able to make walls, but I just can't.
the basic hit test were same the thing as nothing, I still dont know how to use them.
I didnt even read anything else, because i'm too tired, i spent 3 hours trying to figure out how to make characters not go trought walls, i read tons of tutorials but it just ends like always: the character still goes trought the wall.
P.S: No. english isnt my native language so there will be speech errors.
It helps, but...
I think you made some errors in the ActionScript.
For example, the "Proper Movement" codes are missing several onClipEvent(load) that I had to put in to make it work. Also, the ActionScript for that section doesn't work for me.
I'm using ActionScript 1.0, so it might just be me, but...
