Topic: Game Programming / OpenBOR in flash - how would you do it?

I think the tricky part will be to add the movements for every character in the game, also a way to check for specific/typical key cominations (like D,DR,R + Btn1, f.e.)

That beeing said, I think there should be a Class that checks for this cominations and dispatch specific events when they occur. Then, every Actor (or playable actor) would then listen for them and trigger specific functions, which you can overwrite in each character so it performs the right movement. When making the AI just call this functions to perform an attack. Of course, this is just the first idea that came to my mind.

I’m not really sure what you need here, or you just want to have a “jam” like you said and throw ideas and stuff ?

Topic: Game Programming / Algebra in AS3 code?

Are you developing some… physics engine ? I mean,, how do you want to react to the collision with the slope ? Want to roll down, bounce in the right angle, etc. ?

Topic: Game Programming / Stumped using x y inside movieclip as2

You’re referencing your duplicated clip wrong. Anyway, doing what Draco18s said will work and make it all easier

Topic: Game Programming / What is wrong with this?

Well, since the KnockBack will ALWAYS be true when the player presses the Key 68 or RIGHT, then that if statement is not really needed right ?

if (Key.isDown(68) || Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
  _x += speed;
  _xscale = scale;
  KnockBack = true;
}

Don’t know if this will solve your moving issue though. I think the problem might me somewhere else in your code.

Topic: Game Programming / What is wrong with this?

shouldnt at the end of code 2 be:
&& _root.char.KnockBack
instead?

What you’re doing the with the ‘=’ is an assigntation when you want to test for equality … use either double ‘==’ or what I wrote before

Also, since those three hitTests are the same… why not checking only once ?

if(this.hitTest(_root.char.blaze) || 
   this.hitTest(_root.char.walker.blaze) || 
   this.hitTest(_root.char.jumpydo.blaze)) {

  // do stuff

  if(_root.char.KnockBack) {

    // do different stuff

  }
}

It’s better than going to university, where you “PAY” them to do work FOR them.

true…true…

Topic: Game Programming / AS2 Click count

Are you creating the buttons dynamically ?
Give each button a numerical identifier and make it so it increase a variable stored in an array (wich is indexed by the id. of the button).

Topic: Game Programming / How does the programming for this flash game look?

I’M BLIND !

Also.. it lagged a bit

Topic: Game Programming / RPG Foreground/Background

why? Well I thought this was a collab. forum, I’m sure there’s someone out there who is willing to help others and share their tallent. I know I am, and I’ve helped a lot of people in programming… I can’t be the only one right?

Topic: Collaborations / Looking for an Action Script programmer AS2 or 3

What kind of game you have in mind ?
I’m very good at AS2 and AS3.. been using them for years.
I would really like to help but I would need more details.

Topic: Collaborations / Pixel Artist Wanted

omg ! :D thanks !
Yeah… it’s been a while!
I’ll try to come more often to keep helping others in coding ;)

Topic: Collaborations / Pixel Artist Wanted

Hi everybody,

I’m a Flash Actionscript Programmer, been using it for 6-7 years in mainly website programming and game development. Also I’m a musician!
I’m currently developing a Flash game (in FD) for my band’s site and I want it to be “retro-styled”. That’s why I’m looking for a good pixel artits that could help me with this. I’ve already have the basic idea, some of the art (characters, enemies) that I did myself and the retro music which I also did by myself using Famitracker

I only need a couple of drawings for the intro of the game, a logo, and small art that I can place on the background of the page the flash will be in. I’m planning on making 4 or 5 more games so if this collab works there can hopefuly be more :)

The only thing I can offer (for now) is credits for the artits in the game and I hope a lot of people will play it (since my band its getting popular around here :) ). Or if the game turns out to be nice, I’ll post it here on Kong and share 50% of revenues.

Interested ? Need more info ? Send me a PM or write here and I’ll send more details !
Thanks in advance !!

Bye!

Topic: Game Programming / Saving video from Webcam

i thought aboyt your solution skyboy, but I dont think its the best idea. I think i’ll have some performance issues…
About what Draco18s said,,, I wrote that I already read about FMS or Red5 but I dont really know how to use them, or what exactly those are. so… yeah, how do they work and how will they help ?

Topic: Game Programming / Saving video from Webcam

Hi !
I need to program a Flash App. where the user is able to record a video (with sound) and save it to the server where the app. is running.
What would I need ?
Could someone point me in the right direction here ?
I’ve read something about using FMS or Red5 for video streaming but I dont really know HOW to use them… help ?

THANKS !

Topic: Game Programming / Facebook "like" button

true true,, well I guess it depends if his flash app. reallw slows down when chaging the wmode and of course,,, like you said… if he has access to the html.

Ive already tried this before and I found no good solution to the problem of implementing the likebutton in flash.

Topic: Game Programming / Facebook "like" button

how about a transparent iframe with the button, over the div where the flash is ?

Topic: Game Programming / algorithm ideas with pathfinding

Why not… using A* to find the path to the player, but when “walking” through the path, before moving from one tile to another, check if its occupied. If it is, recalculate the path.

Topic: Game Programming / Streaming sound

var mySound:Sound = new Sound();
mySound.loadSound("insert_url_here", true); //the second parameter indicates that its a streaming sound

that’s it.
If you want to loop it (like,,, for background music) you can use the onSoundComplete event to play it again.

Topic: Game Programming / Extract Circular Portion of a BitmapData

thanks skyBoy, that was exactly what i was looking for. Ive already tried the mask solution but since I want to copy the pixels on every frame (always a different circle) this solution seems better.
thanks again

Topic: Game Programming / Extract Circular Portion of a BitmapData

Hi !!
Well I was wondering,,, what is the FASTEST way of copying a circular portion of a BitmapData into another one ??
Thanks in advance!!
