Description Download! Also, i made this in Macromedia Flash 8...so it probably won't work with older versions of Flash

This is the working component of [link]

HERE WE GOOO!

Sorry for having made you guys wait. Although i'll have you know that i havent done any of my homeworks because of this so if i fail anything...i'm gonna be blaming it on you.

Very simple basic tutorial for those that kinda have a clue as to how Flash works. Newbies who dont know the basics please go read up on tuts such as:

- Flash tut for Newbies
- A Flash tut animation
- Learn flash
- F1 in flash

because you will have no idea what the hell i'm talking about lol.

If you're still having problems with it feel free to note me or comment me with your problem or whatever.

Um one question
How do I get rid of your text and replace it with me own (especially on the 'delete this box and text and replace it withyour own' on the preloader.. cant figure it out)

Darqx In reply to MoonLotus [2008-06-28 04:01:27 +0000 UTC]

Oh hey Natasha

You have to double click on what you want to change so it opens up the movie clip it's in, then you can change the text and pics. The text and stuff should be on layers that are quite conveniently named "text" and "pics" (or something to that effect) lol.

Um I made something with this, but the only file format flahs is showing me to save it as for upload is .fla and I think thats just an editing file isnt it? You cant upload an .fla to the internet and people be able to view it without downloading, can you? o.O

You need to go File > "Export movie" and then pick .swf file format

ErisNik [2008-05-20 01:13:03 +0000 UTC]

Great template, but my only problem is that on the link to your page in the main menu page there is a long strip of "DO NOT REMOVE" that won't go away.

Would you mind putting up my deviation? [link]

Darqx In reply to ErisNik [2008-05-21 03:48:09 +0000 UTC]

Double click on the "darqxlink" and just delete that part of the text (it should be on the "dont remove text" layer)

Will do

how do you merge frames together? I was drawing out the sketch and I accidently made a new frame and I can't merge it D:

Darqx In reply to Yovinah [2008-03-26 04:21:21 +0000 UTC]

You cant merge frames, if you accidentally made a new one which you dont need just delete it.
If there's anything on that frame that needs to be on another frame, just copy and paste in place on your used frame

lonehowler In reply to Darqx [2007-10-14 00:10:34 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, I'd been using photoshop for years and I learned the trick that it's possible to directly move pictures from one to the other without having to make JPGs that should help in the future with layers if I ever want to animate art
