Thanks to both of you, our issue was fixed. We realised we needed to use MovieClips and not DisplayObjects. All I had to do was run a find for all instances of DisplayObject in our code and replace...

I guess I don't understand what a DisplayObject really is. I thought it was something that can hold a movieclip, so we could access our movieclip from within the displayobject and stop it that way....

We would like to use .stop(), .play(), .gotoAndPlay(x), and .gotoAndStop(x).

My friend and I are working on a flash project in actionscript 3, and we are trying to interact with the timeline of a DisplayObject (such as stopping, playing, gotoAndStop/gotoAndPlay), the same way...

Thank you very much. Our problem was fixed.

Thank you for trying to help us. We are trying to implement the code you gave us, but we were working with DisplayObjects so we had to change our code to use movieclips instead. Anyway, we got that...

My friend and I are working on a flash project in actionscript 3, and we are trying to move several movieclips by a portion of a pixel. Since we have filters on these movieclips, flash rounds their...

I'm working on making a platformer in Flash and so far have an okay script for making my character speed up to a maximum walking speed quickly, so the movement isn't jerky. The only problem I have is...

Try posting the error so we can help you.

Try the one that this entire website is based on.

yeah

Yay! This makes me very happy. Thanks for the help guys.

1. You already have a duplicate topic open.
2. A free trial of Flash can be found on Adobe's website.
3. There are many wonderful tutorials on this website. You can't find a tutorial that tells...

I know this isn't the first time you can do this. So you are saying the SWF can run independently once I publish the movie?

I just switched from Flash 8 to Flash 9 and wow has the programming changed! I have gotten a simple concept of the difference but still don't understand the structure of the game. I heard you can't...

You should probably edit the first post to include graphics you have made and possibly the story line, as well as more info on the game itself. If I was good at ActionScript I would join in but I am...

Thanks alot guys. I'm going to try to start on AS3 right now. Are there any tutorials on how to make a game with AS3? So I can learn the basics? (preloader, menu control, movement, variables)

I just got CS3 and was trying to work with AS9, thinking it would simply be a version of AS8 with more features. But I have bad coding experience and seeing 10 errors when I tried to copy code from...

Hi. I have just started doing stick animation. I noticed it looked like most of the stick cartoons have a cool style. They seem to have set positions like walking, standing, sitting, running, and the...

And I put those global variables in the frame's actions, right?

When you say direction handelers, do you mean the ball's starting direction? I would like that to be random.

I am sorry but I am a noob at this. Here is the code I have for the bats:
onClipEvent (enterFrame)
{
moveSpeed=8;
{
if (this._y<320)
if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN))
{
this._y +=...

I like the opposite spin.

One at the bottom? Controlled with left and right.One at the top? Controlled with left and right.
One at the left? Controlled with up and down.
One at the right? Controlled with up and down.
...

1) I am not sure I understand you there. When I say bat, I mean a platform that translates from side to side or up and down. (The ones on the side go up and down.) I want the ball to bounce off of it...
