Hi All.
The reason for this title is because I am currently producing flash banners for a company and have been looking all over the internet on such a subject.
My flash skills are somewhat limited. I currently make everything on the timeline and have started to see its limits. I find I am getting choppy movement with some of my animations.
I have tried using jpgs, pngs, gifs and vectors in flash but still get the same problems. I have tried setting the fps to 12, 24, 32 and 90.
I hear that flash 8 is apparently buggy and that you should set it to 31fps. Can anyone verify this?
Also I understand by uping the fps you start to encounter loading problems as you are starting to reload the whole piece your working on faster and faster and so computers with a low cpu will suffer.
I found by looking at using certain colours one can get around possible chopping problems and by spinning the word or image this can take away some of the effect.
I also read by setting publish to ‘quality=best’ can make a difference.
Next I’ve started reading about ‘onEnterFrame’ ‘pressHandler’ and OnMouseMove handlers in actionscript and how this can help.
Can anyone shed any light about how to get a nice simple smooth animation for a flash banner?
Many thanks
