Scene 1, Layer 'Actions", Frame 1, Line 9 1084 Syntax error expecting rightparen before if.

Scene 1, Layer 'Actions", Frame 1, Line 9 1084 Syntax error expecting rightbrace before leftbrace.

somebody help lolll.

a proper progress bar is a good thing provided it really relates to actual progress and goes away when loading is done - but i HATE rotating icon preloaders -they're a fucking useless bit of junk design. ; also better to code for Gnash and SWF rather than assuming everyone has Flash. - the sooner Adobe can get open-sourced out of existence the better.

[kousoulides]

There is a problem in your Code. First of all you need to tell them to type Stop(); on the other layer, second the gotoAndPlay(2) needs something else that I can't remember.

Dear friend

try following

go to the AS3 code view

see the line no 8, and check what is in there I mean TEXT_CLIP or RECTANGEL CLIP or OUTLINE CLIP

and now make sure you have set the name of the property of the object. error which you have says that you didnt define the property name . so in brief if you havent name the text box @ text_clip it can be the problem . try that or copy your code here what you use for AS3,

any better one will advice

have fun

Josh

[JohneyBlue]

well done tutorials.. thanks :))

[XkohanX]

The code:

stop();

this.addEventListener(Event.EN­TER_FRAME, preload1);

function preload1(e:Event):void{ var total_bytes:Number = this.stage.loaderInfo.bytesTot­al; var loaded_bytes:Number = this.stage.loaderInfo.bytesLoa­ded; rectangle_clip.scaleX = loaded_bytes/total_bytes; text_clip.text = Math.floor((loaded_bytes/total­_bytes)*100)+"%"; if total_bytes==loaded_bytes){ gotoAndPlay(2); this.removeEventListener(Event­.ENTER_FRAME, preload1); }

}

What the fuck. Too fast. *nosebleed

[thebuilderddd]

OK, I am confused with moving the layers and I have CS5!

[xXmauvaisXx]

I get confused when the scripting comes. That's the only thing that was hard for me to do in this video.

[aasatt]

In the timeline panel, select all of the layers by highlighting the top layer, holding down the Shift key, and highlighting the bottom layer. Click and drag the first frame of the top layer one frame to the right, creating a blank frame at the beginning of each layer.

im having trouble with this in cs3 can somone help me

[icyshadow0]

@aasatt Use CS4 or CS5. :P CS3 is so old.

[aasatt]

@icyshadow0

[MrAlexstar100]

@icyshadow0 there is no problem with cs3 just 3 years ago, big deal.and cs3 also has action script 3.0 so nothing make a big change

[DareDevil11a]

[Gevreet45]

[ericorenato88]

well explained but not well taught

[martenasgodfrey]

[techrich]

[TheMightyKinkle]

[TRSdowntownskter]

can you translate the actionscript to 2.0? instead of 3.0?
