Random spee/duration. Need help please
Posted by cerupcat at 5/28/2006 6:15:58 PM
I was wondering if there is a script for random animation speed. For example, I want to create a movieclip that has random speed from one tween to the next. This way, I can have multiples of the same moveiclip on the stage and they'll appear more diverse. I'm not sure how this would be done. W...more >>

Looping a dynamically loaded MP3
Posted by jerza at 5/28/2006 4:02:15 AM
I have a sound effect of a train on a site. The clip is rather large so I thought I would just stream the MP3 file instead of embedding it in Flash. So this is what I used. trainSound is the name of the variable and train_02.mp3 is the file. I am using MX 2004. This actionScript is in the firs...more >>

On exit frame
Posted by Chollo at 5/28/2006 12:00:00 AM
Like a couple of earlier posters, I'm surprised that I can't simply detect exiting a frame as a specific event so that I can do something before hitting the next frame. The example is loading external swfs on frames of a container swf. Each frame represents a site state, and needs to disp...more >>

Posted by takabean at 5/28/2006 12:00:00 AM
I am trying to duplicate a movieclip on the stage, and also set its properties. 1. Does an instance of the "main" movie clip need to exist on the stage, or can I not dynamically create/duplicate movieclips on the stage from the Library? 2.
