RE: [Flashcoders] ANN: Screenweaver HX - Version 1.0
Please note SWHX has full support for AS3 and AS2. It is using Neko/HaXe as a platform to host it's functionality. There is no tight coupling between the UI .swf and the HaXe backend that favours HaXe dev above ActionScript dev. Your swf can be written using Flash 8/9/Flex 2. The fact version 1.0 has full support for AS2/AS3 as well as HaXe doesn't support the trend you suggest. In contrary, it is showing SWHX is a open platform that is offering target developers choice. -Thomas -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cliff Rowley Sent: Friday, September 01, 2006 4:07 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] ANN: Screenweaver HX - Version 1.0 And anyhow, this is still beyond the original point - which was that SWHX will almost certainly move away from compatibility with AS3/ActionScript and closer to HaXe/Screenweaver unity ;) ___ 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@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
RE: [Flashcoders] problems with unc paths in flash 8
Hi John, Imagine a flv video player exported as a Flash Projector. The player loads "MyFlv.flv" without any extra path info. Flash will default to search for the flv file in the same directory as the .exe. Running the .exe locally this works, the flv streams: c:\test\MyPlayer.exe c:\test\MyFlv.flv Running 'over the network' (from a UNC path) this breaks, the flv with not stream: \\myserver\myshare\MyPlayer.exe \\myserver\myshare\MyFlv.flv Thanks, -Thomas Thomas Wester Programmer www.secondstory.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Dowdell Sent: Monday, April 17, 2006 1:31 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] problems with unc paths in flash 8 Scott Brantley wrote: > That is exactly what I'm referring to -- Universal Naming Convention So, is the question something about accessing local files while in a browser, something along those lines?

RE: [Flashcoders] problems with unc paths in flash 8
UNC: Universal Naming Convention: \\mysever\myshare\myfile.flv I've had problems with this and never found a solution/fix/workaround. I would love to hear if somebody has found a security setting that works. It used to work in Flash 7. -Thomas Thomas Wester Programmer www.secondstory.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Dowdell Sent: Monday, April 17, 2006 1:02 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] problems with unc paths in flash 8 Scott Brantley wrote: > Does anyone have any idea how to get around Flash's new securities > when playing an flv over a UNC? It works just fine in Flash 7. So the > problem has to be with the new securities. "UNC" is undefined, and initial web searches decode it as "University of North Carolina" which I assume is not at issue here, so it's hard for me to answer directly. But I do know that for the answerable question "What changed with security in Flash Player 8?" that resources are available with search term "flash player 8 security". Full-domain-name matching is one of the frequent catches, if that context is of help in this case. jd -- John Dowdell . Adobe Developer Support .

RE: [FlashCoders] scrollRect
You want to use bitmap caching in combination with scrollRect. Use movieclip.cacheAsBitmap = true Also any bitmaps you use should be smoothed. So make sure your jpg is set to allow smoothing in the library. If you are dynamically loading jpg's read this. If not read it anyway :) http://www.kaourantin.net/2005/12/dynamically-loading-bitmaps-with.html Good Luck. -Thomas -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dimitrios Bendilas Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2006 1:55 PM To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: [FlashCoders] scrollRect Hi all, I'm trying to make a very basic prototype to test parallax movement with Flash 8. Is movieclip.scrollRect what I should be using? I tried this: var bg:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie("bg", "bg", 2); var y:Number = 0; _root.onEnterFrame = function():Void { bg.scrollRect = {x:0, y:y--, width:635, height:540}; } The movieclip "bg" contains only a jpg 635x540. The movement is pretty jumpy. Should I be using BitmapData instead? I'm a bit lost! I've been searching for code samples online for the past 2 hours and I haven't found anything useful. Does anyone have a useful link for parallax or tile-based games using Flash 8 features? Performance is the key issue here, since this is going for a very big and complex game and I want to optimize it as much as possible. Thanks a lot!
