C'mon, we should have gotten a few posts about them, I don't need one much but I know a lot of people do so lets get a few posts in!

We're not all fucking mic experts. If you're looking for a good mic, don't keep complaining about it here. Get your ass over to the audio forum and ask them.

hey, i need actionscripters

Mics

I was trying to help someone with their problem, they said the audio forum didn't help much.

By IDE I meant "Environment" :P for the lack of a better term.

Well the course is 2 months long, And I'm getting well 200$ for 16 hours of work. Neato. :D

Yeah I guess I'll go into stage properties.

There's a girl in the class D: it's actually a pain. A big one.

Erm so what are you teaching them the basics or what. No actionscript being taught? How about how to use filters and use the color mixer. Also basic character design?

I don't know I'm just blurting out random ideas since I can't think of much you could teach them if your not teaching AS. Or are you?

Lol you should have divided the course to lessons on paper before the course has started. how many lessons you've got left ?

Say what? :^P

I'm actually being productive. I fixed the hittests on a game I'm making and now I'm drawing another newgrounds photo for a photo album I'm making :D

It's great that it's the first weekend, I feel like I've been in longer than a week though. Anyone else not got much homework?

Hey guys, sorry that I keep coming back bitching 'n moaning randomly about Flash CS3, I know it's weird, but it's better than making a new thread or something. But this time, I actually have a question or two. So firstly, I've tried to download this about four times, and every time I do, it takes up about .45 GB and then when I remove and delete it, I don't think I'm getting that space back. Is there any way to? Secondly, I'm going to download the Upgrade to CS3, so if I choose to do the 'Send Box' option, will it come with three uses, like buying the full one does? Or is it just the same if I do download to my computer...

...yeah, sometimes we get so caught up in our own reflections (in mirrors, glass... any reflective surface, really) that we miss all your "This is Flash, No Girls Allowed" signs. Next time try glitter! ;D

School

It's good! I'm only doing what I want, and I get loads more freedom around the place. Also the homework is what I want it to be, so I dont mind doing it :D

Nevermind my last post because....
:o
I. HAVE. ADOBE. FLASH. CS3! Time to go get FUCKED using AS3! Good thing I spent the past year and a half learning AS2. :/

Well hopefully soon I can help some AS3ers.

In the meanwhile, I've been screwing around for a few hours with JavaScript and HTML a little bit, just creating crappy looking web pages. Looking at sources of things is actually kind of cool, especially Newgrounds, it's crazy how much stuff there is, for non-website coders at least.

Wow I just checked out the Newgrounds source and they have way more coding then most other sites. It was mega confusing...

If you got Flash CS3 to use ActionScript 3.0, which is well the only reason someone would get it, you've made a huge mistake.

You should never really use Flash CS3 IDE to use ActionScript 3.0. It's just not suited for it. If you want to use ActionScript 3.0 get the free Flex SDK and make the graphics with Flash IDE (any version). Alternatively, my favorite, start using haXe. Flash is inferior to haXe in every way.

But eh, good luck learning ActionScritp 3.0 though! It's a great improvement over ActionScript 2.0 so it's a big step forward.

Anyone still using ActionScript 2.0 is either denying the future or too stupid to use Flex.

Thanks to having it demoed to me at the last meetup, I use CS3 and FlashDevelop for the code.

Compling the code through CS3 stops you having to play with the sad voodoo that Flex requires or the "I am teh greatest coedr evar!!11" ego that comes with being someone who uses HaXe

Crap... I got addicted to Civilisation IV yesterday. There's no way I'm goonna meet my Flash deadlines now :/

There's something fantastic about creating a Civilisation dedicated to scientific and philosophical discovery of the highest magnitude, all while sitting in your boxers eating crisps.

What's even better is taking over England and razing all the university towns you didn't get into :P Fuck you, Oxford!

Paranoia, try having a look at Civilization Revolution - you'll vanish for days. It's like they went out of thier way to streamline everything.

Religion kinda threw me off in Civ 4 it must be said.

Did you get to looking for more Metalocalypse?

I know, I was using FlashDevelop before, but it's just a bit annoying for some things, like Embed you're graphics [at least, that's what I've seen Gust do] in order to get them to work, and all that random stuff, like not being able to attach it to the timeline, it just makes making games in general harder. I also tried haXe, but I don't know it nearly as well as I know the AS's.

But eh, good luck learning ActionScritp 3.0 though! It's a great improvement over ActionScript 2.0 so it's a big step forward.

Well fuck me and call me Sally, I can't. Turns out that for some reason, the Serial Codes on TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT FLASHES don't work, just because dumb and dumber, it doesn't seem to upgrade because of the Macromedia and Adobe difference or something. I'm SITTING HERE LOOKING @ THE SERIAL AND IT GIVES ME ERRORS. I then spend half an hour on the phone reaching Adobe to hear that Macromedia's Customer Service IS CLOSED EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND! What assholes.

Well, back to FlashDevelop, you have any good tuts on it? I just have issues with two things: 1. attaching graphics from Flash 8 to the stage with it, and 2. literally showing the graphics, since you need to use that stage.addChild crap, plus every single thing needs to have a Class and need to be attached. I found one tut on forget101.com or something, but it didn't really work well. Are then any FD open sources I could just look at?

I fucking hate customer service people.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Although I usually go all for the war stuff so I can watch shit blow up in my boxers eating ramen noodles.

Well, I'm not sure on what "sad voodoo" you're referring to about using Flex but I don't think I have a that big of an ego. If I do have that though, it's because of hanging out on IRC with Gust, not from using haXe. I'm just saying what I believe in and not trying to show off.

Everyone doing Web Design professionally will back me up on this. Your target audience will never have the nice toys you do. Hell, I still have to design for people on 1024x768 monitors on IE6 with the plugins turned off.

Despite Flash's browser penetration for V9, there are still people out there who'll not be using anything higher than 7 - especially when it comes to intranet, kiosk or workstation stuff. AS3 may be the future, but even now we're still having to push what we can do in AS2 or simply not use Flash at all.

After all, you can't exactly tell a client that they're luddites for not having Flash 10 Player on thier machines. That kinda thing loses you contracts.
