[Flashcoders] JOB POSTING: freelance game developer (game engines required)
Hi All Due to the amount of workload we have got on at the moment we are looking for a freelance game developer, to produce / provide existing game engines for a high profile site we are about to start work on. As the games are more 'extras' to the site we are looking an using existing / work in progress game engines (think miniclip.com) that you may have already developed rather than anything bespoke. We require 2 or 3 games that we or you can skin / brand up. The site is aimed at kids aged 4 to 14 so obviously playability, fun and addictiveness is what were looking for. If this sounds like easy money and something of interest to anyone, can you e-mail me directly with: Your Personal Details, Experience, skill set, portfolio, Prices/Costs for the engines and relevant example live URL's to wet our appetite. We are based in the Leeds (UK). Working remotely would be fine for the right candidate.

Hi Moses Thanks for getting back to me, and cheers for the download. Im based in Leeds in the UK. Yes please put me on the beta team, id be more than happy Cheers, Dom dominic.fee(at)darka.co.uk or this address -Original Message- From: Moses Gunesch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 13 February 2006 19:28 To: Dominic Fee Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] MovieclipTween120.mxp from http://laco.wz.cz/tween/ site looks great! I guess 1.1 needs to come out this month before i speak at FF. It's really coming along. If you can commit to a few hours of serious testing for me, I will get you on the beta team. I need good, experienced coders like yourself! until then here's v1.0 which is class based but does not contain FuseFMP for filters - that's in 1.1. Moses Gunesch Portland, OR PS, where are you from? - Hi Moses Do you have an expected release date for 1.1 I've just finished (well just about) www.themillbank.com which made vast use of the tweening class. I came across Fuse too far into the site build and knew that this would have been a better solution, so im very interested in fuse for all future tweenwork, especially with flash 8 blur transitions etc. Thanks Dom ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
[Flashcoders] site check plese (possible preloading issue) - or is it just me ?
Hi all, Sorry for off topic posting. I was wondering if anyone on the list can post back any comments on a preloading bug issues they may encounter when visiting www.themillbank.com http://www.themillbank.com/ which I've just finished. I'm using a loderclass and not sure weather it's this or myself whose broke my firefox cache config settings. As it only appears in firefox on one certain machine ive tested (not sure if it's a particular firefox build on that machine) Basically the site preloads fine however the content will not show up until a navigation button is clicked. If anyone has any preloading issue, could they let me know. I think its just my firefox build, but better safe than sorry. Please ignore the menus section as this is incomplete with content, design and a few tween bugs here and there. Client wanted it launching regardless These should be finished Mon, Tue. Cheers Dom ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Subject: [Flashcoders] targeting duplicateMovieClip
Hi guys im having trouble targeting duplicated movie clips
I am using the following code to produce them:
mycount = 30;
dom = 40;
//function to create multiple movieclips from single movie clip
function createFlyingMC() {
if (mycountdom) {
_root.flying_mc.duplicateMovieClip(flying_mc+mycount,_root.getNextHighestD
epth());
randomX = 500*Math.random();
randomY = 500*Math.random();
eval(flying_mc+mycount)._x = randomX;
eval(flying_mc+mycount)._y = randomY;
mycount++;
} else {
clearInterval(ID);
for (var i = 0; i1000; i++) {
//removeMovieClip(eval(flying_mc+i));
}
}
}
//function to periodically call another function
ID = setInterval(createFlyingMC, 50);
flying_mc.setupDrag();
now what I want to do is control the 10 flying_mc ive created
I thought it would be as simple as using flying_mc2.setupDrag(); or
flying_mc3.setupDrag(); but this seems not to be the case
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks dudes
Dom

RE: [Flashcoders] Bokel's LoaderClass cache issue with Firefox - HELP!
Hi Steve Sorry forgot to mention that yes ive also checked that too.

RE: [Flashcoders] Bokel's LoaderClass cache issue with Firefox - HELP!
Hi Nick,
1.06 firefox
Ive made the profile.swf bigger in file size now just so you can see if the
preloading is working or not and if you get that horrible re-preload
Cheers,
Dom
The code im using for preloading at the moment is:
(ignore all the dirty if statements, im going to be animating the load bar
supersmooth)
bar_mc.onLoadProgress = function(loaderObj) {
this._xscale = loaderObj.getPercent();
};
myListener_obj = new Object();
bar_mc.onLoadStart = function(loaderObj) {
trace(Loading of +loaderObj.getTarget()+ has started);
};
myListener_obj.onLoadProgress = function(loaderObj) {
trace(Percentage: +loaderObj.getPercent());
if (loaderObj.getPercent()1) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 10, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
if (loaderObj.getPercent()10) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 20, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
if (loaderObj.getPercent()20) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 40, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
if (loaderObj.getPercent()30) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 60, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
if (loaderObj.getPercent()40) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 80, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
if (loaderObj.getPercent()50) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 100, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
if (loaderObj.getPercent()60) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 120, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
if (loaderObj.getPercent()70) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 140, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
if (loaderObj.getPercent()80) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 150, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
if (loaderObj.getPercent()90) {
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 160, 2.5, easeOutBounce, 0,
Preloader);
}
};
bar_mc.onLoadComplete = function(success, loaderObj) {
trace(Loading of +loaderObj.getTarget()+ is completed);
_root.tweener.tween(_width, 172, 1.5, easeOutSine, 0, Continue);
function Continue() {
nextFrame();
}
};
myLoader = new com.qlod.LoaderClass();
myLoader.addListener(bar_mc);
myLoader.observe(this);
myLoader.load(movie_mc, profile/profile.swf, myListener_obj);
myLoader.load(movie_mc, reviews/reviews.swf, myListener_obj);
stop();
then on the buttons im using:
// 1. Load Profile
function LoadProfile() {
trace(Load Profile);
EnableNav();
loadMovie(profile/profile.swf, movie_mc);
}
// 2. Load Reviews
function LoadReviews() {
trace(Load Reviews);
EnableNav();
loadMovie(reviews/reviews.swf, movie_mc);
}
Cheers,
Dom

Dom,
You got seperate preloaders for each section? As on my PC (XP SP2) I don't
see any difference in behaviour between IE and Firefox...So I can't tell if
the movies you are preloading are preloaded or not, as there is only a delay
of like 1 second before the content starts appearing. So im guessing it may
be a firefox issue on your machine? What version?
Cheers,
Nick

Hi Amanda This link may be of great use: Cheers Dom http://www.cybergrain.com/tech/demos/flashhtml/ -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Amanda Kuek Sent: 30 October 2005 04:39 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] Flash and ASP/MSSQL Hello everyone, This is a question about Flash in an ASP form which communicates with an MSSQL db. I'm not really sure how to phrase the question, so I'm afraid that I'll just have to explain the story. Imagine an ASP page about faulty garments. Let's just say that if you had a hole in your T-shirt, you could visit this page to report it. The page would have normal HTML fields for name and email, and it would also have a SWF with a picture of a T-shirt. The disgruntled hole-y user clicks on the T-shirt to leave an X representing where the hole is. The form information (including that of the hole location, in the SWF) is then submitted using a normal HTML submit button and stored in the MSSQL db. I spose my question is, is this scenario possible? Is it only possible to store user-submitted information (in this case, the X,Y coordinates of the hole) by clicking on a Send button WITHIN flash, or is there another way? I'd like to avoid making a user explicitly submit the SWF information AS WELL AS the form information. Any ideas and comments much appreciated, Thanks muchly, Amanda. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
