&fmt=18 at end of the adress bar for HD if you need a better view of how to type the codes

[MoomooT3hCow]

Thanks neofriends!

[TehCacti]

would have saved you time by putting the script in the description rather then explaining how to do it

[MoomooT3hCow]

That kinda defeats the purpose of a tutorial.

[cbvgg]

No, 'cos you don't "learn" stuff. A tutorial is to "learn".

[MoomooT3hCow]

Potatoes.

I think your ideas were right but your code looks too blurry.

[eugeniohz]

Man, you should start your videos showing the effect before coding.

Anyway the code is blurry, which really makes it useless to beginners.

Nice thing to explain point by point, instead of just throwing the code.

Still a nice attempt, but i cant get the code, or see the effect...

why does every one say its blurry i can see it just fine with full screen 360p

Followed tutorial to the letter but every time I click on the ball and hit F9 for the actions, it says "current selection cannot have actions applied to it."

Thanks, xD I NEVER Subscribe to people under, 40 videos, unless they help, and you definitely did, I finally found someone who actually tells HOW and WHY you use the code. I know a bit of it, but not that much XD

onClipEvent(enterFrame){ yVel += grav this._y += yVel if((this._y + radius) > ground){ yVel *= bounce this._y = ground - radius }

}

[roofdoubleflip]

Here's the working code:

onClipEvent(load){ ground = 400; yVel = 0; grav = 1; radius = (this._height / 2); bounce = -.85;

}

Once I was able to make out the small/blurry code, it worked well and was really cool! Thanks!

dont listen to em. . . its a good tutorial, ive been doing this for years and uve shaved one line of code off what i normally do. good jub!

[sgtGrif]

...lol i bet no one can read any of the code in blue
