Bump.

actually, I, very AS incompetent as I am, can answer that question! WOOOO!

download this free pre-scripted vcam: LINK

than copy and paste the vcam in the players MC, with the player centered. this way, your screen goes where your player goes!

oh my apologies.. that seemed like it SHOULD have worked, but the code in the vcam appears to conflict with the code of the player, and forces the player in a set position, and immobile.

if a seasoned action script programmer could examine the code of that vcam I posted, and it's relevance to the game code, for those of us AS incompetents, that would be great.

it comforts me to think that anyway, I was on the right track??

Hey, I know this is an old post, but, uh, every movie clip I make becomes invisible when I test the movie.

Anyone know what might be the problem with this?

Response to As: Platform Game Basics 2010-02-20 09:31:26


Thanks for the codes!
I haven't read the whole thread, but when I run, instead of showing the animation of my guy running, it shows him jumping while he glides away. I did not copy and paste, but when I tried fixing it, it always turned out the same. I copy and pasted after I tried fixing it, but still the same thing....
Help?

Try changing the frame numbers on the codes.

You mean "gotoAndStop(framenumbergoeshere);"?
I tried, but seemed to be the same problem. But, maybe I misunderstood. When saying frame number, what do you mean? (I'm new to platforming, and advanced coding as well)

Okay.... I had this problem but i figured out how to fix it..... when you click on the ground box, go to actions, there if you scroll it will say:
onClipEvent (load) {
this._visible = true;
active = false;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { ECT ECT........

well when you put this on the ground,, change this._visible = false; to this._visible = true;

then it will appear.. :D
