just bought this and i have to say it is nice and clean - a huge head-start for any project using this sort of base, and for anyone doing straight flash, it seems to be a great out-of-the-box setup....

Hi,

I'm trying to create a slideshow for a site, and am trying to wrap my head around how to load a jpeg once from an xml, then be able to attach it as a small icon, but also reference the bitmap...

You can create applications with flash. There is a nicely done free sourcecode one for windows, and commercial solutions to output for mac and pc. Basically, you'd want to have an "install" button...

I don't know if Click 'n' Play is still around, but you might want to try it out. :)

I'm not up to a long-winded explanation of setting up for actionscript, and you probably wouldn't understand my...

I'd add a time limit if there were more randomness, maybe have 2-3 places that each item could be hidden, so restarting isn't just a re-do. (Add a chandelier, creaky floorboard)

You could easily...

Hi Brandon,

Sounds like my sort of thing. If you want to send me an email on donb@aaa.net.au, I can give you some of my details, and you could let me know what sort of application it is.

Hi 911,

I'm a games designer around my other work. I work from Australia, with very flexible hours, so you can either have reviews between your close of business and the next morning, or work with...

dawsdesign: I'd like to have it with research-based development of the game, so that after a short while, players could predict a period where attacks could be made, and with these generated randomly...

Oh ok,

If you explain its a sattelite sort of thing, it makes a lot more sense...

It was a good speed on my computer, took about 5 seconds for a target to travel the screen,

I think it needs to be a little more responsive, maybe a faster speed that drops back to what the...

Darn, that's remarkably similar to the game idea i was thinking about a few months ago. Anyway, its been a while since i've been on here so I only just found this thread.

My idea was to have a...

If i was using a later version than 5 on this project, I would. Unfortunately, the flash 5 objects don't work reliably...

IE and netscape both work with locally set cookies. Given your response, I...

In creating a flash educational game, I have come across a fairly urgent problem. I have the pc side working, however in my actual game, I set a cookie to the local machine for high scores.

My...

I really like it. Although it gets hard to watch a movie at the same time after the first few hundred points... :) No, seriously, I really like the balance. The only thing I think could be good is...

sorry, magician, I was recovering from a bucks night which went way too late/far. I'm happy with that summary, maybe 2-3 person chats where appropriate may be easier

Have a great day

so GMT 9pm? I won't be able to do that at all. If it was one hour later I might have a shot.

The original posts were talking about 4pm Mountain Time. Looking at the MS Time Zone info, that relates to 11pm GMT. This works fine for me, any earlier becomes a problem.

Please make all future...

i have that problem. My collision testing involved a dirt bike riding along a side-scroller. I can't quite make it feel real when it collides. I'm not sure what the best method is, but I'm starting...

ok. I'll let someone else help then. I haven't attempted tiles yet.

Jerez: Are you working with tiles or straight graphics now?

Ok. I'm in GMT +10. Can each person let us know what they are in, and set forward a time say 4pm -7 GMT? That way I think I just add 17??? Hmm. There's a first time for everything. Actually, given...

Ok, having played a bit more... :) woot! top 2 scores.

You need to address a couple of issues before I'd call it polished. I quite often get a service error, by moving forward while serving. This...

I think allowing the flash movie to be slightly wider would help my gameplay. I keep moving off to the side to try and save a shot, and moving the mouse out of the flash area, losing control...

My...

I really like it. I think the idea of a crosshair (optional) for where the ball is going to hit would be quite good. I do think however, that locking the front-back movement with a key like Shift...

One bug: The guys dissapear when you click on the reload button. This looks like it could be because you're moving around the timeline, and they're on the same level (movieclip depths, not...
