Alright, so I’ve had Flash since Flash4 was released…and I only know basic actionscript, I need some tutorials and stuff, so…what do you recommend I start with?:beard:
Start with the tutorials supplied with the program.
Then the basics tutorial on kirupa.com. A lot of the Flash 5 ones work in Flash MX as well. Although some of the AS could be optimized in MX.
flashkit.com is a good place to go for tutorials. Some of their tutorials are pointless, some make no sense, but there are also a lot there that are informational and help alot.
So you have been using since Flash 4 and only know basic AS?
Yeah, because I just never tried to learn it or anything…But I’m thinking the time is now.=)
Well I wish you luck in your journey!!! 
If you have any questions, don’t be afraid to post them
Alright!
keep in mind that there are a lot of changes since 4.0, some not so obvious. If you have any questions at all… post em.
Personaly the best thing in my mind is the switch over to dot syntax. In the 4.0 version you needed to use tellTarget methods to get anything to do anything. In Flash5+ you just need to call out to the object by name.
myMovieClip.gotoAndPlay(3);
is a big advancement.
I’m only just getting into MX myself… it’s even more fascinating than 5.0 was. Now we can just create and object with a/s and tell it whatever the heck we want. You can effect whole classes of objects in a few lines of code, changing the entire scope of a project on the fly.
It’s all quite amazing.
