Finally, a tutorial which caters to my extreme Flash noobishness(?)! My school has books on it... but they don't tell you how to apply stuff and they can't really give good examples D: Totally going on my USB for future reference in moments of confusion.

Top tutorial!
Nu zie ik dat je niet altijd motion tweens hoeft te gebruiken. Ik moet maar meer met frame voor frame oefenen
wat staat bij jou boven aan, frame voor frame, motion tween of shape tween?

lol. I can decently make general animations with Flash and ActionScript, but only the preloader part always never appears. xD

klakkid In reply to Inami4 [2009-06-03 00:42:44 +0000 UTC]
try this. go to the main timeline. select the frame with the preloader, NOT THE PRELOADER. just the frame. now go to actions and type
stop();
then see if it works.

Is there a way for you to save your flash and when you look at it later, you maximize it and you don't see the other stuff that was made outside the actual frame? I'm having trouble with that =\

Hello :] Thankyou for your wonderful tutorial, it has helped me alot.
I was wondering though, I have been trying to make a button, that will skip a few scenes and start from ahead.
I have Done the action-script, and named the scene I want the button to go after clicked, but the button just goes to the frame directly after it. I dont get any error messages though ;____;

Keimichi In reply to ??? [2009-03-05 20:12:07 +0000 UTC]
How do you stop the flash from going on and on at the end? I've created an "replay" button, but it's useless if the flash just replays it self before you can click it.
