I have built a trivia game of 1.8 megs (swf.) I am building a preloader for it (using getbytes etc). It is not working because on the first frame of my movie is showing my library of 270 k, which...

I am running into similar problems. I build a CD, total size is 5.68 mgs. The projector.exe which is loaded with an autorun, is only 900k. The other swf's are loaded into level1 of the projector. ...

Hey all, I've encounted an unexplained programming error in a trivia game we have designed. It seems that in about one in every 7 times I preform a certain function, my script that tells another mc...

Thanks SpasticMOose, I feel stupid because it never seemed to be broken. Duh!

TheCraw, why don't you load the banner.swf into your main movie. You can load them at different targets, using...

Simple question, I can get a swf loaded into level1 to pass commands to MC's in my main swf (level0) but as soon as I play the movie through a browser, the commands cease functioning.

Is it a...

Apparently tell target or for F5 with should do the trick
(see page 397 of the action script dictionary) However, I haven't got this working, though I found another method.

In my MC (Scripts)...

I am having the same problem. I have kind of found a solution, but there has got to be a better one out there

From what I can tell, variables only exits within a mc, or within a movie (swf). ...

Yeah, it's instance name is points and the text box variable name is score. It returns a value of NaN in the text box when I run the game using the first method of MC inside another MC

I'm stumped. I've spent three hours trying to figure this out, leaving me to believe it is a problem with the addition function.

I am building a game with multiple MC's. Now I want to add the...

You can load multiple external swfs into you main movie at the same time, check out this tut for the low down http://www.actionscripts.org/tutorials/intermediate/multi_preloader/index.shtml

Your absolutly right, I just did not explain my situation enough. I have a game board with 5 dynamic text fields with variable names Question, Answer1,2,3, and 4. In my A/S for each Catagory I have...

Hey all

I am building a Trivia Game that uses ASP to randomly select about 40 questions from a SQL DB that will have over 300 questions. Now in my Flash, I want to send the data directly into the...

Works like a charm. I don't have much programming backgound so lots of trial and error. I tried level0.x=1 but not root. Guess I will read over that section of the ref guide again, see if it sinks...

Anyone ever had this problem and found a dot syntax solution

I have two groups of MC's, one being 3 MC's with a button in each, and another MC with 3 characters. Depending on the button hit, a...

Believe it, it is big, at 462k. The site was designed as a marketing tool, built specifically for the corporate crowd (min 256k T1). Only at the end did I play around with a preloader for slower...

I could not resist posting after reading the balthaser comments. My buddy and I just finished a site a few weeks ago for a company that wanted a site like balthaser. We came up with somthing...

Take a look at our new site and tell us what you think, I'm sure some of you can come up with some critical comments. The url is http://www.launchfire.com. We build flash based trivia games and...

If it works, it is not how MM explains it in their Actions Script Ref guide. Sure encourages you to keep slogging through those 500 pages wondering what else will not work as demonstrated.

I have a similar problem I am stuggling with. I have extracted info from a database into ASP, now I need to load up the variables into a MC. I am trying to figure out how to place the value into...

Interesting comments from everyone. I believe games have a strong future on the internet. I work for a start up and our product is just games - though they are trivia games rather than arcade. ...

Nice site. I went through the intro 4 times to see if the letters that fly in individually are the same ones used to form the sentence, but it was too fast. Paragraph text is a bit hard to read...
