Man, why will I never be able to reach maximum-lvl anywhere? :'-(

Pretty useful

I find this quite useful, but it was sad to see it's more than 10 years until I'm level 60, haha. Anyway, I love those newgrounds gadgets and I hope you will do some more.

Oh and I saw your flash loading the icons dynamically from newgrounds right?
Would you mind telling me how to do that? Because I'm working on that quite a while now but can't seem to get it straight.

andy70707 responds:

lol, I only have another 9.98 years :) When im 23 ill finally be level 60!!!!! And yes, I did load them dynamically. The actuall script is quite simple, but I had a lot of trouble getting it to work with a variable which works out the URL (http://licon.ngfiles.com/level[level number][first letter of aura].gif) So anyway, just make a new movieclip (absolutely NOTHING in it) and place an instance on stage. give it an instance name "placeholder". Then, place it where you want the upper left hand corner of the image to be. Then, put this code on the timeline:
loaded=false;
urlbox="URL here, or code to work out URL"
onEnterFrame=function(){
if (loaded == false) {
loadMovie((_root.urlbox), placeholder);
loaded = true;
}
}
Then it just basicaly replaces the movieclip placeholder with whatever urlbox equals. For a refresh/update/load button, just use:
on (release) {
loaded=false;
}
And if you have any more problems, just PM me.

Nice

Cool little utility

I'll need this in the future(and now, too.)

Great idea! Some things that didn't work out for me was the level 60 icon. Your Flash had trouble loading one. Also, you can be level 6, but right in the middle of getting to level 7, so the calculator will be a little inaccurate. If users could get to type in their numbers, it would be much more precise.

5/5

andy70707 responds:

The level 60 icon is a problem with the server, not this flash. Try copying the URL for the level 60 icon into the browser, that won't work either. I suppose I hadn't thought about the EXP thing, although people remember what level they are, not the exact so and this was designed to be easy to use.
