I always thought the Moving Ball lesson my Flash lecturer gave was a very good and important lesson which provided me with the fundamentals and understanding of how things worked in Flash, particularly the onEnterFrame. Now in AS3.0, onEnterFrame no longer exists. Events replaced everything, including this convenient function which I had come to love [...]

Did you know that there’s a big change in terms of how properties are called in AS3 now? For example, in AS 1 and 2 we used to call MovieClip._x but now in AS3 it’s just MovieClip.x. No more underscore. I just knew about it while exploring AS3 and proceeded to google for a cheat [...]

This is my first step into Actionscript 3.0. I thought I would share it with everyone and at the same time, try to do a very simple thing so that I won’t be daunted by the new language. What I am going to do: Create a button that – after being clicked on, will give [...]

I’m working on a big project for some time now, and I’m now switching up a gear to make sure I finish this project of mine. Expect some Flash tutorials and freebies in a totally new site soon!

A pretty good page for people who uses dynTween or who wants to learn how to use dynTween. http://www.pvbinduction.com/projects/bor5265/classes/dynTweenClass.as After using it for a project recently though, I won’t touch it again, because it is very outdated. It lacks tweens for a lot of properties like color and the Flash 8 filters. The callbacks aren’t [...]

I’ve been using a XML 2 Object prototype I got from Kun since a project I did at MakeStudios. However, I misplaced the prototype, and then tried to look for it online, but to no avail. I’ve found another equally good, if not, better Class that does the same thing though. It’s written by the [...]

This Class Library is one of the links sitting in my Links section for quite some time. I didn’t have the time to check it out, but now that I did, I wished that I had checked it out earlier! The link to the documentation is: http://www.brendandawes.com/dsf2/ The link to download the class is: http://www.brendandawes.com/downloads/dsf2.zip [...]

The nice reflections you see in Fusion 2006′s website. Just happened to see it, and so I posted it for people interested to use this. Click here Enjoy!

The code for full screen/full browser is really simple. In fact, the only code that is needed is to make sure that the objects within the SWF itself does not scale – and a line of code to align it to the Top Left of the browser. Stage.scaleMode = “noScale”; Stage.align = “TL”; The rest [...]

To start using the microphone in Flash, the code is really quite simple, and can be retrieved from the F1 Help documentation within the Flash UI. Here’s the main code that you will need to initialize the Microphone. this.createEmptyMovieClip(“sound_mc”, this.getNextHighestDepth()); System.showSettings(2); var active_mic:Microphone = Microphone.get(); sound_mc.attachAudio(active_mic); One thing to note is that your Stage size [...]
