[penguinap]

I use a Mac and F6 doesn't work. Neither does F7. can you help? Tks

[theweatherchayz]

uhhh. F6 doesn't work on me. i'm using flash 8!

[Ackar9898]

It looks like you made it with Pivot.

[TheLegacyOfK41Z3R]

@Ackar9898 its too rubbish to be pivot -.-

[DreaMsDesignHD]

Why did you call this for beg-med? This annimation is beginner ad the tut is for just starting people

[theEpicDragoon001]

dumb it down alot dude i dnt understand the whole thing!!

[pear201]

i got it for free shhhhhhhhhhh don't tell any one

[pivotbot237]

@pear201 me too

[PhilinThebox3]

Everytime i try to go into the symbol its take too long its SLow, why?

[LondonLyricDesigns]

I've been creating animations in flash for almost 9 years, it is amazing in what you can create. Just check out my vids. You can also import your flash animation into after effects and really get some cool ass animations=)

[SkaterJakerable]

NEWGROUNDERS ROCKS !!! 

[ToiletZacke]

What is best to use if you DON'T have a tablet? Brush or line tool? Brush is really hard to get right imo.

[Blitzproshow]

omg u animators suck on youtube.

[Lerusja]

fuuuuuuu

[rooker77]

weres the head lol

[firefly431]

OMG PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE *DONT* watch this noobs! THIS IS NOT EASED AND IS VERY BAD! AND SERIOUSLY, USE THE BRUSH TOOL!

[FS9Media]

@firefly431

dont have to use brush, in my opinion line is best without a tablet...

[HitlerMalaya]

how to make motion tween i still wondering till now... HELP ME!!!

[126viktor]

great! 5/5

[TheMr3x]

how yuo make apivot on flash 8 ?

[RNGbladestudios]

Audioswap please.

[CrazehGamer]

Lol dude there's a thing called Movieclips/graphics, It saves a hell of alot time instead of moving every frame like you did, There's filters and effects you have yet to learn, Try watching some tutorials yourself, it helps.

[Starvois1999]

you know you dont have to say that

everyone dosent have to animate like you you know

yes movie clips could make it faster but you dont have to be such an A@@ about it

instead just help

go ahead and reply but i wont read it or care

[CrazehGamer]

I'm not being an a-at-at dude, it's arse anyway (or @ss if you're old enough for youtube.) The way you made it was so it was nearly impossible to make it smooth, You could have turned it into a graphic and then press F6 for each frame, but even that isn't worth it.

I am helping, it's called critisizm.

[Starvois1999]

wait what

ohh shit sorry dude my sis posted the comment

plz helps shes a hacker ((0o0))

lol sorry

[CrazehGamer]

You must have a weak password. e__e

It's called "cracking", hacking is programming, the words are just miss-used.

Alright no problem then.

[Deadstickperson303]

@CrazehGamer A critic is a man with no legs who teaches running.

[mingchannel]

does this 1 cost $ to buy if yes then no i have to use pivot (i dont find that relaxing)

[CrazehGamer]

LOL, Flash is 500-1000$ dude, The easiest way is to crack it, Or just search a download. (Illegal but better than nothing >>)

95% of animators downloaded it free anyways, So it's not really suprising.

You'll probably grow out of pivot, It gets REALLY repetitive after a while, I've used it in 06 to 07 and from then on used flash, it's MUCH better, But I recommend you get at least intermediate before you start using it, Otherwise you'll get flagged,

Take it from me ;)

[firefly431]

@CrazehGamer YES HE kinda SUCKS!

[m0dafka]

lmao i can do that inhalf the time and even might look better...

[kokteilikook]

YOU ARE SOO COOL..i love your videos soo much .i how a broblem with downloading flash can you help me?i download it and then is says you cant open it..sorry...THAT MADE ME WTF WHY??

[pudinthemushroomhead]

i hav flash 8 and dont know how to resize the lines (yes im a noob)

[deasz93]

the chanching is hard, cant u just make new layers?

[Kiba3Af]

TOMATOOO

[Murray1994]

how do you make the black figures think and all black instead of having a hole in his head

[GamerReece]

I think you are talking about, Pivot Stickfigure Animator. If you are, then Download '3.1 Beta' version of it. That way the Stick figures are think black lines. No white heads ;)

Hoped I helped ;]

[XxGuitarXxXGodxX]

No you didnt help anyone because pivot sucks ASS

[Charmetrolden95]

incredible hard o; i just can't figure out how to use macromedia flash 8 pro good

[Theh3h3h3]

Thank you!!! that was really helpfull

[LuziferX2007]

WHAT THE i tried like u said with pressing F6 add new keyframe but if i try to edit the new frame the line from the previos frame go visible in the new frame what to i wrong??????

[gorillazhead]

If it's slightly transparent, then it's supposed to do that...

[palestineify]

this is what i do, i draw a stickman, make anew frame and erase the man, then i press f7 a million times, go to the 3rd frame (should be empty) then draw the move for every frame by pressing f6 or f7. there are other ways to do it and you could get the same result. and sometime it's stupid to keep drawing the head each time, so i do the head seperatly so it doesn't change shape every frame

[palestineify]

its suppose to do that

[SammyLeather]

nice wallpaper

[phamil4066]

thank you you have helped me alot

[noobhell23]

how you move the stickman so fast the part you just copy the frames and paste then just move the positon.I do it so slow

[torchicamn]

TOO hard for me right now I cant even do pivot!!!!!!!!!! i suck

[kanoncherrykitten]

[noobieandnoober444]

[LilyoProductions]

[rainbow6SMEEGE]

[xmodking3494]

[demonicshadow5747]

@snowleopard01 It's easier with pivot, but it doesn't come out as good... I was hooked on pivot for like a year, then i finally poked my head round the corner and found flash :)

[snowleopard01]

@demonicshadow5747

Yeah I'd like to use flash but it looks V hard.

[deathnotedo]

@snowleopard01 fash takes skill .... pivot takes a mouse

[ujustgotownd666]

[moldface2]

how much is Macromedia Flash 8 Pro and whats the cheapest i can get it :S

[rottentomato11]

[moldface2]

[CSterrorist]

Nice vid bro but you could've told us when to make new keyframes cause I stuffed up big time.

[malskaer]

Flash costs money about 600 dollars, but of course you can download it illigal.

[plokmijn66]

[edz3ed2]

[plokmijn66]

[edz3ed2]

[sh0cka66]

[plokmijn66]

whats it called?

[sh0cka66]

pivot i think.... or u cud just get macromedia flash! which is ok :)

[tetavo]

omfg, ur all n00bs. u all need 2 stp ur 1337speek. its not aim, fcol.

...actually, fcol, iirc, afaik, and other such discursives are acceptable in my book

[flashnoob2]

Animation SUX so bad youd get flamed anywhere else dude anywhere else

[Tapoze]

but pivot sucks its to time consuming, with macromedia you can just copy scens you need to repeat and you can do SO much more with it

[RaymarkXv]

i would recommend pivot for beginners i use pivot :D

[j456235]

and now it does....and I didnt change a thing....pfft

[j456235]

Ive also held ctrl and it doesnt grab a point....

[02fastaudis4]

you tought me alot...except for 1 very important thing...how the hell do you play the moive you make???????lol

[FlashWhore]

Ctrl+Enter.

[Thegthatkillsall]

its hard man ;O

[sarnky2]

i'm 55 seconds into the vid, i've puased it because i just HAD to say that the music is doing my heade in im muteing it. Just thought i'd let ya know continue

[zelibober]

Y don't you just convert a stickman in to a Graphic Symbol and then double click on it and do the moving circle - just 3 or four frames. On the main scene put it on start position and after 20-30 frames make a key frame and move it to finish position then make twin as motion. Its going to take you match less time

[floobergobber]

how do u get flash 8 if u can help me reply plz

[0u73rh34v3n]

i <3 your taste in music

[ilikeusingrubik]

how did you get macromedia flash?

[oppressedtoaster]

You can get it pirated through torrents ^^

Orr. You can buy it.

Orrr. You can download the trial. And use a keygen to win. Orrrrr. You could download the trial, use 30 days, delete, clear registry, and download again.

[ashurathesadxhacker]

funfail for free :D

[sjjs1985]

when i draw the man, then select the 'selection tool' and try to move one peice eg. his leg, his whole body moves. please help!

[DanielBliss1289]

lol im having the same problem

[Xenxe777]

if your gonna watch a tutorial please wach it carfully

[DanielBliss1289]

dont you think i woulda tried that? :P it didnt work

[minigunner008]

GJ on teh vid

[blkdemon304]

u suck at tutorials 4 beginners.....u hardly explain nething...

[rottentomato11]

lol i said beggining to medium animators. it was more of a showing of how to animate, not how to use every use of flash you have to figure that by urself lol.

[blkdemon304]

oh ok im sorry

[someoneonthestreet]

Hey thats really awsome, but how do you get flash on a computer

[CpGam3r]

what better pivot or flash and how do i get flash???

[rockguitarist946]

whats the song called?

[iamnothigh]

Holy Mountains- System of a Down. :)

[razynth00]

It was good right untill i saw the animation.

[Suprcow34]

Just some advice - DON'T press F6. EVER. Unless you are making the same exact frame. Animations look too stiff when you do that, and people can easily tell you used F6. All of the animators at Stickpage, and websites like that NEVER use it. Don't get lazy - animate all of your frames.

[WolfVisser1]

I use a different style by using the oion tool

[jetsnix]

same here it looks alittle sloppier but u can do more stuff with it

[stevenH463]

for me flash is kindof hard i have it but i hardly ever use it

[JSKDirect]

Brilliant Tutorial

[skateandpivot]

AAHHHHH! TOMATO did u only put that on for ur vidz cuz if i knew u i would say that ur messed up in the head but nice animation! =D

[tanner1031]

sick song man!

[rishbob12]

this is a stupid movie (video), but i like the song what is it?

[sk8tg94]

[DarkAngelOf1]

[CrackonPimpS]

cool... really cool ^^

[Westwick001]

Dude how do u get Flash 8?

[xXxhaloitupxXx]

hey what do i need to do to stop the lines that cross over each other from connecting?

[Beebop65]

Pretty sure song By System of a Down

[cjfigueroa]

yea bro holy mountains by System of a Down

[worganizm]

for some reason my lines can only go to 10,not 15...how can i solve this?

[FalzarGregar]

how do you leave that mark everytime you add a next frame. its like the stick figure have a shadow

[dragoncaw]

onion skinning

[FalzarGregar]

ah so thast what it is

[smartic7]

yeah... I hope I helped.. now can you tell me is there a way that I can have my macromadia flash mx forever without buying it??

[smartic7]

under the frames (timeline) you have a button and when you put mouse on it .. it says "onion skin" and activate it and you will have shadows to

[FalzarGregar]

Ahhh thanks

[dragoncaw]

yea there is use a serial heres one put in in as the validation code WPD700-59905-32394-18228

[smartic7]

I know ... I did that 5 days ago... I figured it out... tnx again

[ark999999]

it dosent work for mine...

[onebillionstick]

man, you're obsessed with tomatoes XD

[lamystate]

dude i cant figure out how to do this...when i try to make em walk i have to cross one leg over the other one and when i do that the two legs like connect or somethin and its DRIVIN ME CRAZY!!!

[rottentomato11]

[blazer875]
