Hmmm Ive done exactly what he said in this tutorial and Ive got error when I want to check my flash site ctrl+enter . It says that : 'Scene 1, Layer 'AS3', Frame 1, Line 5 1120: Access of undefinded property briteDotsMask'. I checked line 5 of 1st frame in my AS3 script but I have no idea whats wrong with it. Any ideas what to do?
@callmeLilSparky select the text and in the properties panel you'll see filters at the bottom. At the utter left bottom of the properties panel you see 3 small buttons and the first one should be " Add Filter", then select the filter you want and adjust the settings :)
A lot of people are having problems, So here is what I did to solve them:
Some people made the mistake by NOT calling the symbol ''britedots'' , but naming it something else. To solve this, Open up the action code, and change the ''britedots'' into what you have called the symbol.
Now, If you have this problem:
1120: Access of undefined property loadPercentText.
Click on the textfile in the first frame of your intro and make it a dynamic text with the name: loadPercentText.
dude thanx! ive been trying to figure that out all wk! i actually had 2 of such errors but fixed them both now that i understand what it was asking for.
I have an error.....infact nearly all comments below say the same thing ....so really its a shite tutorial as its poorly explained and everyone is getting problems. Maybe you should read all the comments below and re do this video.
absolutely love your tutorials, i love that you keep it simple and you literally explain everything that you do, even when you're just correcting some mistake or small thing like that. however, i do need help help help! i used this tutorial to kinda get the idea abt working within a movieClip "area" and to get nice smooth change from my intro to main page...but when i press ctl+enter it skips the whole intro and main page field fades from white to black....any idea where's the mistake? thank u
okay i managed to fix the problem by putting stop action code in the [action] frame where intro is on the main timeline, but now it doesn't go to the main page of the website that i made [in other words - now it's the oposite case from what i wrote that is a problem in the first comment above]:( what did i miss in onnecting these two?
Hi great tutorial, I have one issue, for my pages I created little animations to bring in the pieces of the page within the timeline of the movieclip but the movieclips of the pages all play as soon as the website is opened up rather than when I click on the link to them and also they don't repeat any adive?
To anyone having trouble with the 4th line, a guy name Paul (paulwiko10) said this: Before reducing the height, make a note of the Y figure above the height. Then reduce the height as per tutorial and then type in the noted figure into the Y setting and that should do it. Not sure that is the best way, but it worked for me ;-)
@flashbuilding can you help me please man, i wrote ur script out and everything and im using Adobe Flash CS5 AS3 and everything is like it should be and all and it still giving me a compiler error and it flashes that white square continuously can you help me out please
was doing good until the getting to the action script part. at this point do we just pause the video and copy those 11 lines of script into CS4? are there no options in that huge list of action scripts that will insert these commands?
Is there something in CS5 that makes this not working? Only get errors and its really not stopping on frame 2 its just looping around. Only tested in the publish view so that could be the problem but I really want a answer before I continue so I dont do alot of hours work and in the end its not working -_-
i had error ! the error was something wrong with my loadpercenttext.text and britemaskdots.width, i made sure my instance name was the same already ! please help !!
Your stuff works.. But I feel you overcomplicate everything. I have a fair knowledge of Flash (though now a huge amount because I taught myself) but it just seems that way..
Your tutorials are so well put together. Thanks so much, Adam. On a side note - I don't know if you're a fan of the movie "Clerks", but when I listen to you, all I can picture is Randal..
@MyPianoSucks - Nobody knows how the future will flow. Actionscript 3.0 is good to learn for today's web industry. You ever play a facebook game? Those guys at Zynga are making a killing... and all thanks to flash. I charge more for full flash sites as opposed to jQuery CSS type sites. Clients expect to pay more for the hotness.
@flashbuilding I know the basics of C/C++ and Assembly . Assembly is with no doubt a waste of time, just use it for hacking :S . But now i want to learn something more related with the web, and i was thinking seriouly if ActionScript is the best option. Nowadays we see lots of sites made is flash. . Flash has been contantly expanding . .
Forget to say that this video is amazing . . i will do this later =)

@flashbuilding you can do just as much with a javascript/css website as you can do with a flash website, only difference is 100% of devices can run it.
@MyPianoSucks it's allway's good to learn things but you can never be sure how it will workout, but it does make your work flow a lot faster (thought it's not needet) programs have progressed so much that you really just edit things and your design and it does things on it's own. So it depends on you if you want to finish something fast or if you want something to take a bit longer.
@MyPianoSucks it is a good language to know, even if flash dies in future, you've learned an Object Oriented language which will help you learn other languages, if you are good at it you ll enjoy coding more than copying.
Well here I sit...I guess FB does not answer his vid emails. Line 4 as others are finding, is not wanting to cooperate by growing in the wrong direction. I have spent hours on this damn thing exausting all options I can think of...and now ...nada...zip...0.... I give up...time to move on.
Hello, I have a question..., I only use Dreamweaver but I took a class for Flash and I fell in love with it lol. It is pretty cool, this software does a lot if you know how to use it well. Ok , anyways... I am trying to use Flash but I am unable to find the key for the moment. My question is, when I design everything from Flash, when you import to dreamweaver, is there anything I should know do you know??
If possible, can you please message me, perhaps key included if you can..., no biggies
u should have done a Simulate Download clip on the vid so people would see that their load bar actually works, that way people like GoldenSilence333 don't need to have questions XD!
@catzgrl10 i could be wrong but i believe you should replace the my_content with your own name that was placed in the property bar such as bed_room or something like that.
@lagoren it should be in the properties menu where you should place your unique name, from there just copy that unto your action script and you should be straight.
@lagoren your action script should be on a different layer than your animation, you'll only need one frame for the action script layer, and the properties menu should be under your stage but if it isn't visible just go to windows> properties. in order to bring that up. And no problem at all, im glad i could help.
@lagoren yea its going to, thats fine actually, hopefully you've made your animation and then made it into a movie clip, if you did then drag the movie clip from your library onto the stage(this will hold all of your animation together, from there then you can give it a unique name in the properties bar
you had me so confused when i put the action script in cause when you put "brite" i thought that was a mistake for "bright" i spent like a half hour trying to figure it out, im used to the action script stuff now. thanx again for the vid, very helpful and i followed along with you through the whole thing :)
hi, great tut.. everything is working fine except for the loading part. It does not appear until its about 98% done, before that, its just a blank square (where the .swf will appear) then after it "loads" the loading little circles apear already in about 98%... and then 1 second after, the intro begins and everything else runs fine.. anyone know why? appreciate your time. thanks once again.
Shit! I can not afford this awesome program, so I had to crack it. SHIT! This is nothing for me, I use FL8. Boo. Thanks for wasting my time for a flash version mine is not compatible with. Hiss.
Hey dudeee! please do a tutorial for advance flash website like the ones you see on fashion sites like PRADA Armani.com and Versace! Pleaseee! i need to know how to be able to do them for the futureee!!
Hey, quick question. If I used Sony Vegas for my intro instead of the design you used, would there be any difficulty besides putting it in the correct spot?
This is such a great help! Awesome video. I have a problem though, I typed in lines 10 and 11 of the loader script just as you did, I've check it like 10 times, and it tells me there is an error in those 2 lines when I hit ctrl+enter. 1120: Access of undefined property loaderinfo. Any ideas?

on the intro MC u drew 4 lines, each of which motioned to form a continous line or some sort .. im having trouble with the 4th line as it won't move vertically from bottom to top .. i tried all the 9 points of registration but still nothing .. can u help me ? im stuck in that part of the tut. thx.
Phisico33: "very simple actually! even puting the constrain reference at the bottom, i had the same problem as you guys, i fixed very well, after u creat it, just highlight the object and put the constrain point where it should be, and everything will work fine!!"
hey, great tut, only problem i have is when i preview after creating loader and frame 2, the video keeps looping even though i placedthe stop(); command as well as gotoandStop(2);
also i get the errors:
1120: Access of undefined property loadPercentText. loadPercentText.text=percent+"%";
and,
1120: Access of undefined property progressEvent.
ramirocks reat tutorial, all thumbs up but i have one error when, my swf file keeps flashing extremely fast and saying there are errors with this: loadPercentText.text= percent+"%";
reat tutorial, all thumbs up but i have one error when, my swf file keeps flashing extremely fast and saying there are errors with this: loadPercentText.text= percent+"%";
how should the action be if I want the mask to go up, i want my logo to appear from bottom to top, so I'm using the mask below the logo and on the actions I'm changing width for height but it doesn't work. Any help please!!!
Hi ! I'm facing some problems for the myIntro's line 4 : you tell us to keep line 3 settings when converting to symbol but I can't find out how to registrate it. I mean, when I keep the same settings, the line grows from the top while it should be growing from the bottom. (I tried to set the registration on bottom center but it's even worse...) Thanks for helping...
Hi, please help me also, i got same problem with "daveleek7" when I re size 4th line it is also from top to bottom, pls how to reverse it...............
Hi, i have tried following this tutorial however when i come to draw the left hand side line, i.e bottom to top I can't make it grow from bottom to top, only top to bottom, i have changed the registration point to all possible ones and this still happens. Help me please so frustrating.
I'm having the same issue. I've tried to just reduce the line then change axis Y but the doesn't work. Please explain how to get it to work... I wish that part of the tutorial wasn't skipped, seems like worth while information to go over.
very simple actually! even puting the constrain reference at the bottom, i had the same problem as you guys, i fixed very well, after u creat it, just highlight the object and put the constrain point where it should be, and everything will work fine!!!
Before reducing the height, make a note of the Y figure above the height. Then reduce the height as per tutorial and then type in the noted figure into the Y setting and that should do it.
Not sure that is the best way, but it worked for me ;-)
i have a problem in line 4. i can't make it to start appearing from bottom to top. what should i do? thanks

hi, great tut.. everything is working fine except for the loading part. It does not appear until its about 98% done, before that, its just a blank square (where the .swf will appear) then after it "loads" the loading little circles apear already in about 98%... and then 1 second after, the intro begins and everything else runs fine.. anyone know why? appreciate your time. thanks once again.

You can simulate a much slower download then you test the movie , inside Flash
and then you will have the needed time to see the preloaded content. enjoy hope that's' helps...

Hi ! I'm facing some problems for the myIntro's line 4 : you tell us to keep line 3 settings when converting to symbol but I can't find out how to registrate it. I mean, when I keep the same settings, the line grows from the top while it should be growing from the bottom. (I tried to set the registration on bottom center but it's even worse...) Thanks for helping...

Amazing tutorial. Only parts I'm having trouble with are (a) in the script for:
loaderinfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loadComplete);
it gives me this wonderful little message:
"Access of undefined property loaderinfo."
And my loading mask won't go forward and reveal the actual loading part.

To solve the line 4 issue, i did the following.
Before reducing the height, make a note of the Y figure above the height. Then reduce the height as per tutorial and then type in the noted figure into the Y setting and that should do it.
Not sure that is the best way, but it worked for me ;-)
Let me know how you get on
