I’m using an effect I found on the net which moves clips around randomly, works really nicely, however, Im having a problem with it when it’s put inside another MC.
I have a site setup that uses a navigation section which loads the separate sections into a container MC on the stage. When the section is loaded that contains this special effect, it doesn’t work. I guess this is a target issue in the action script somewhere, but I’m not good enough with code to see it.
I would appreciate some help with this, if someone can let me know which parts need to be changed so I can do it myself later if I need to, that would be awesome!!!
The special effect file and a “container” file for it to simulate my problem are attached.
I’m using a transition setup that I found on the net somewhere, cant remember where though. It checks which is the current movie and plays out the movies timeline, then at the end of the timeline it requests the next current movie (to load) which it gets from the buttons in the navigation.
on (press) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = “gs_services”;
_root.container.loadMovie(“gs_services.swf”);
} else if (_root.currMovie != “gs_services”) {
if (_root.container._currentframe>=_root.container.midframe) {
_root.currMovie = “gs_services”;
_root.container.play();
}
}
}
If you’re not familiar with even the basics of AS, this is realy hard stuff!
I 'm no wizard at AS, but I learned quite a lot here and there. I suggest you
start with some easier stuff, if you realy want to get into AS.
On the other hand, there are some REAL wizards on this site who can
help you offcourse…good luck!
