Let's get this party started, then!
Get back to work, and stay active as well! :D

Side-note: I've PM'ed lots of guys again :D

You guys might find this list quite interesting. It was made with lots of thanks to Trickee, which made the original. I just updated this beauty, and decided to share it with you:

Well Zerobeam, if you really must have an update ASAP, here it is. Just remember, I haven't been able to work on it much. I've worked on it in other ways than actual animation.

Oh and I forgot to mention, even it's current unfinished condition the file size of the .fla is already 1.15 megs. I still need to finish this music sequence that lasts about 10-15 seconds, and add another 15-20 sec part with less animation but just as much if not more audio. So is this a problem? If so, what do you think I should do?

This is the work I did today:
http://spamtheweb.com/ul/upload/270708/1 1371_Newgrounds_Level_Collab.php
I used the sketches of my new attempt, which was drawn in a different style, for the fightingscene.
Continueing from there.

Hey guys, just checking in. Whirlguy, that preview looks great man. Keep up the good work.

K-Guare, that was funny as hell dude. Nice work.

Son of a bitch..... I'm gonna have to post pone my animation.
Take a look: http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/2010/
errorek0.jpg

That file was never saved, but my other file with all of the animation, almost completed, got corrupted in the process. Sorry Zerobeam but I'm gonna have to start from friggin scratch!

Please, guys, remember to save your work frequently!
(I remember having a auto-save plugin for Flash, but I dunno where I got it...)

Bertn, that is one kick-ass post you've made, thanks! ;D

Could you not just cut the audio down so as you only use what you need? Or have you done that already?
If so, then try optimizing (I can't remember how... someone here will know if you don't :D).

All the audio is the exact length I need it to be, I've already clipped the music and mixed all the sound affects and dialogue in with it into 1 mp3. Now I'm gonna have to do the same for the next part, and I'm sure that'll probably lead to the file doubling in size.

I asked before about adjusting audio settings, but I don't think I got a response. My problem was that I have never been able to adjust the individual audio properties for each sound file. When I got to publish settings, no matter what settings I mess with all the audio seems to be published in one way. I'de like some of the less important sounds to be a lower bit rate and the more important to be slightly higher for clarity, but I just can't make it do that. Anyway, that's pretty much where I'm at.

for the sounds, make sure the override sound settings is not ticked in publish settings, and just change the individual setting, in library, right click on sound properties and uncheck use improrted MP3 quality and choose you bit rate, 8 or 16 is good, then thats it go! dont override sound settings

funky

still no news of my computer.... I think the guy lost it or something.

no update of my part......

Thanks for replying. Yeah I've done all this already, and I tried again just now to double check, I set the audio to a low bitrate like 8 so all the sound was fuzzy, and when I published and played it, it came through clear as day. It doesn't seem to matter weather Overide Sound Settings is checked or not, the settings there are what everything is published as.

So annoying >:(

If anyone wants help with their animation, or if you're out of ideas or stuff like that:
I love giving advice (:

I told you if we haven't got enough authors, and we really needed some, I'd ask you.
But I never gave any permission! :I

Also, shame you're going away for so long >.<

Bertn meant it currently sucked. Of course it sucks, it's only a motion tween! :P
As I said, I like the style, but that's it. We can't judge the movie on any other way! :)
I'm sure Bertn didn't want to offend you, he just meant it currently wasn't finished. Of course it won't suck once it's finished! But currently, it's only a motion tween, tbh... :P

ok so... I'll be taking levels 41 and 42 i guess.

so im still kinda flash and Tablet work, so ima practice a bit more before i crank this out.
lemme verify however. i am assuming you want a single-frame movie-clip .swf file right?
and no deadline huh? well i shall keep tabs on this forum then to see when i should get working then.

and also....
what weapons are 41 and 42? :D
is that the nuncuku or katana?

What should I do with an .swf file? :P
I need the .fla file. Whether you make it into a movieclip or not, it doesn't matter for me. :)
Deadline isn't set yet, it'll be set when all parts are full ;)
--------------

Also, guys, I forgot to mention to name your movieclips.
This might be a bit of hard work now, I know, so if it's too much, don't bother!
I'll change them myself! Don't worry! :D
But if you'd like to help me out a bit, mind naming your movieclips like: yourusername_movieclipname ?
Ex. zerobeam_guy1

Thanks! ;D

Try opening the file in Audacity (or similar program, personally, I like Audacity), then exporting it as an mp3, im pretty sure you can fuck around with the settings quite succesfully with that program.

part 15 then :D

what good sound cutting software is there, i dont mind a price, anythng apart from auciociy

For audio I'm using Cool Edit Pro 2. Honestly I'm not knowledgeable when it comes to technical audio stuff, so this program is way over my head. But I guess I could try to go in and see if I can mess with the quality a bit.

But the other problem remains, what the hell is up with my publish settings?! I could never figure this one out, in all the years I've had flash this problem has persisted. >:(

Get active, you guys :P

Damn you, Runescape! >:O

So I don't think they'll get active anytime soon :p

Ok, I'm 16, physically fit, and I absolutely despise RuneScape....
But I guess thats why you said "most" now isn't it?

Anyway, my animation is coming along good. I should have another preview up soon, and it should be completed in a couple weeks or less.
