03 Aug 2008Finally got around to whipping up some quick flash anim stuff.
Here is my first flash animation ever. Woohoo!

Unfortunately without a preLoader its tough to get the exact 30fps but you get the idea. In future releases I'll whip up a PL for the dial-up folks.
Next I'll be making it hop across the screen.
edit: forgot to mention there are no tweens, its on 2's. -
03 Aug 2008Here is round two:

Still on 2's, no tweens @ 30fps.
Still not getting 30fps in the browser though, but it could be my internet. -
03 Aug 2008cool!
i im not getting 30fps on the last one either...
what made you start flash? and why? shouldn't you be busy enough with your cards? -
03 Aug 2008I made a preloader and I still don't seem to be getting full frame rate in the browser, will research that.
Light & Heavy Ball?
This one didn't come out as great but I'm done with it, moving on.

@Richy - Watching my little 2 year old nephew's kids shows got me inspired to try some 2d. -
04 Aug 2008Round 4!
I made a pendulum animation to practice some overlapping and breaking of joints. While doing so I came to painful realization that there is no sensible way to build a hierarchy of pieces/joints/parts in Flash. I had to animate the top, then the first joint, then the second, etc. If you need to make an alteration to the top then you need to redo everything below it.
I'm guessing you could animate each part as it's own movieClip then build the hierarchy there, but then you can't view it in realtime. It's tricky! Fun stuff though so far...this one didn't come out perfect because I don't have the patience to go back and make alterations when it's already keyed on 1's almost the whole way.

04 Aug 2008I've been reading up and it seems Swift3D has a hierarchy panel for building characters. Anyone know if Flash has anything that can be used similarly?

flashmasterfong 238 posts24 Aug 2008No idea, anytime I ever build characters in flash I use motion tweens with several movie clips, on different layers. You could try looking to see if anyone has built a plugin like your looking for using action script. I wouldn't really know where to look, kinda been out of this stuff for a while now. -
27 Aug 2008Hey jay hows it going. on to 2D eh haha good thinking rocking through all the am stuff.
