[TheSteamGamer99]

Clever kid.

[Tonnzninety3]

i have this problem with this function startgame(event:MouseEvent):Vo­id{* says is not loader..

Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=1, Line 7 The class or interface 'flash.events.MouseEvent' could not be loaded.

[Tonnzninety3]

@Tonnzninety3 i have Adobe Flash Cs5

[Computoguy]

@Tonnzninety3 At the top of your code, type import flash.events MouseEvent

[Tonnzninety3]

@Computoguy Ok Thanks So Much

[TheStickofWar]

Nice tutorial. really liking it : )

[XLucifernus]

This is just what I'm looking for, thank you so much <3

[Computoguy]

@XLucifernus No problem.

[gsaddfff]

hey, any chance you can make a how-to on text boxes?

[Computoguy]

@gsaddfff What do you mean?

[SatanicTutorials]

How did you get that next frame XD

[Computoguy]

@SatanicTutorials Press F6?

[Computoguy]

@MyAbstractAnimation Self taught.

[TheDragonFellowship]

Really good tutorial video, am much greatful for it, thank you.

[helium73]

How did you click that next frame so that there is a dot in the center. I get a white rectangle in it and any change I make applies to all the frames

how do you delete start button for just the second frame without deleting the the first frame

[helium73]

@helium73 Ok I figured it out you have to insert a keyframe which you can do by rightclicking and selecting keyframe on the timenline where you want the keyframe. That will allow the dot to be in the center.

Also, start using proper naming conventions for your movieclips (lower camelCase) and explore OOP concepts more. Timeline coding is so last year lol.

[DerpBanana]

This is way too basic.. I used to code things like this back in my 2-4 days of learning As3. But still a nice tutorial for beginners I guess.. 6/10?

[TheDarkBlueGamer]

wow your good !!!

[Computoguy]

@TheDarkBlueGamer aww thanks.

[TarnationCarnation]

Your accent completes it.

[Computoguy]

@TarnationCarnation Ha ha

[5dGraphics]

@TarnationCarnation his voice sounds different in real life

[KNAV3]

I haven't been able to get past step one. I can't name the instance, when i save it as a button, it takes me to a new page

IDK what i'm doing...-___-

[Computoguy]

@KNAV3 So when you create the symbol for the button, and give it an instance name, another window comes up? What is this window and what does it say?

[KillTheCarebears]

@Computoguy does this work with flash 8 to?

[Computoguy]

@KillTheCarebears No, this is AS3, which only works from Adobe Flash CS3 up. Goto Adobe's website and search for Flash CS5.5 for the latest update.

[AbeVHelsing]

on the first line in the code what is after the (Mouseevent.CLICK, startgame) ?

[Computoguy]

@AbeVHelsing Here is the whole script for that frame.

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

stop();

startbtn.addEventListener(Mous­eEvent.CLICK, startgame);

function startgame(event:MouseEvent):vo­id{ nextFrame();

}

[Computoguy]

@Computoguy And YouTube mucked that up, makes sure nextFrame is under the function.

[AbeVHelsing]

@Computoguy um what version of flash are you using beucase when i open it, it just flickers between the start screen and the game

[Computoguy]

@AbeVHelsing What version do you use? That will make things easier and I should be able to sort it out for you.

[AbeVHelsing]

@Computoguy i use CS5.5

[Computoguy]

@AbeVHelsing Watch Part 2! It will solve your problems, promise.

[AbeVHelsing]

@Computoguy so do i follow whats in this video or just watch that one instead?

[Computoguy]

@AbeVHelsing Keep the code you had in the first video, but watch part 2 because I correct some things I may of done wrong in this episode.

[AbeVHelsing]

what version is this? and do you put the title a symobl?

[Computoguy]

@Leryuremu Read your PMs.

[rapsis2x2]

HAHAHAHA I LOLD SO BADLY WHEN YOU STARTED TALKING!

[Computoguy]

@rapsis2x2 Right then... O_o

[kotoyoto]

[Computoguy]
