Hi everybody, hoping someone might know if this can be done. I made a Flash text player designed for a 800x600 site. Problem is, if people at higher resolutions visit the site, the player starts looking pretty darn small So ... is there a way that my Flash text player will automatically...

Hi everybody, I'll try to keep this simple and thanks in advance for any help with this :) I have 3 movies that work together as a team. Movie#1 loads and via loadMovieNum("Movie2.swf", 1) Movie#2 is then loaded. Movie#2 is a "key" that checks the date and if date is acceptable, Movie#2 then...

Hi oldnewbie, I can't thank you enough for solving this. All my sound functions work now even though they exist within a swf loaded into _level1 now via loadMovieNum() :) So many other people told me that attachSound() won't work if your swf is loaded into another swf via loadMovieNum() unless...

Hi everybody, hope someone else here has encountered this same problem and solved it - because I've tried just about everything. I made a swf (movie#2) with sound functions. When I play that swf by itself, sound functions work fine, no problems. Here's an example of one of my sound functions...

Thank you oldNewbie for the link, I will look into this :) ! Still learning :D !

Hi everyone, hope one of the Flash Masters here can figure this one out ;) I use a PC, Flash MX, to make my swfs. I put a swf on my website and got a message from someone using Mac OSX saying they couldn't see the swf. I published the swf back to Flash 5, made sure to use both IE and...

Thank you for clarifying this issue about memory and swfs loading and unloading. I will try out your suggestions :) I want to Learn :D !!

If I load Movie1.swf (3 megs in size) into level 1 of my projector and then load Movie2.swf (5 megs in size) into the SAME LEVEL, am I correct in stating that Movie1.swf is thus completely removed because Movie 2 was loaded into the same level? And if so, what happened to the 3 megs of data...

Hi Boomayed, if you still want to link multiple exe's and want to shut a projector down , try using fscommand("quit"). For example, right after you link to another projector via fscommand("exec", "projectorTwo.exe"), a few frames further down your swf script...

Hi Will, thanks for the advice, and yeah, that shouldn't be a problem having two EXE's playing at the same time (not swf's). I could use fscommand to make they all play fullscreen so as to hide the menu. I was more concerned with performance issues actually. But actually, it just occurred...

Hi, I see a problem in the way you wrote your function: Assuming your function was indeed written on the mainstage. (I msyelf write a lot of my functions in the 1st frame of the mainstage so they can be easily referenced). Try writing it like this: function changeProperty(menu){...

Hi everybody, I'm wondering if anyone here has ever tried to do the following successfully. When you buy a game for PC, after you insert the CD-ROM, it starts playing, a menu shows up, you can do stuff, and if you want, you can usually get back to that opening menu. I would like to be able to...

Well, I managed to figure this one out myself after all. And for those who are curious, here's the solution: The function had to be written thusly. function alertWatch(a,b){ if(a.hitTest(_root["e"+b]) && _root["e"+b].zz==true){a.alert=true}...

Hi everyone - hope some kind and wise person can figure this one out ;)! I'm trying to optimize my code by using what I call 4 "BIG" functions lol - that is, functions that include many parameters(one of them has 9 and works OK). Problem is that though I got three working fine, the...

Tried it out, didn't quite work out at first, but pointed me in the right direction and the massive condition is now history ;). Thanx again for your help! I want to Learn :D !!

Thanx a ton Wangbar & Oldnewbie :) much appreciated! Will definitely give this a try tonight and get back to you. :) I want to Learn :D !!

Hi everyone :) ! Well, I spent several hours trying to optimize this - tried functions, arrays, just about anything I could think of or look up - but seems to be a dilemma here. For a game I'm working on, I create 29 rows (26 columns) of dots, for a total of 754. The characters will move by...

Well, I have a fairly straight-forward way, but it'll take a bit of work. I run win98se, and what I do is this: I push "Print Screen" (I think some people have to push Alt + Print Screen) and I take a picture of the screen, and then I go into paint, click Edit, and then Paste in the...
