what kind? There already are some examples of ai (though they arent called ai - still implements ai behavior). Its just that this can range from stupidly easy to that which is beyond normal human comprehension :hangover:

AI varies from game to game. It isn't really something general I think.

December 21st, 2003, 10:09 AM
and it isnt reserved for games alone. You can find it/implement it anywhere.

Yes more general flash. Like intro to the tools and the different ways they can be used. Masks. Advanced tweening (making things flow smoother) and all that.

Books are usually best for that. Something to invest in if you havent already. Flash help and Flash tutorials too. (depending on your version) they can be very helpful.

I know it varies from game to game. I thought of something general. tipps and tricks.

A simple shoutbox tutorial... that works with TXT files or with a MySQL database. I think this will have some success.

more movement tuts, more elasticity, 'flying thru stars' menu, organizing your flash structure etc.. More on flash's drawing API (although I must say I was really impressed by the 3d tuts by sen i think... )

I've been thinking of making a flash tute on how to replicate some of the effects and animation in xiao xiao. (I'm a much better animator than I am a programmer :D) If you look at the effects and really break it down, they are quite simple

Ilyas -- Games, eh ? I've never built a game in Flash before ... I guess it's worth a try :)

Aha, here's something I could do too ! I still go to school, so I have lots of things I can learn there and write tutorials about here. Such as trigonometry for example. We're learning about it now at school (though I knew most of it already before by experimenting with Flash), so I can tell all about it :)

When will that be out Sen - with this new MX2004 the basic stuff is much harder for us designers now. I liked how simple the last version was.

Let me know ok - I would love to read it my man :thumb:

I think its below your level. This is for people who have never used the actions panel before except maybe for a stop() statement :)


When? I may get it done before new years. Not sure. Wrapping up a XML menu tutorial first. And before that Kirupa still has a few others he needs to put up including my ~50 page AS 1.0 (OOP) tutorial, so that may take a while.

Is that the tutorial you showed me ? I guess not, that wasn't really for absolute beginners ... well, the first part was.

senocular

that was the AS 1.0 (OOP) tutorial. Kirupa's working on that one I believe - formatting the pages and finding the right place for it in the structure of the site and whatnot. He's only human though so it may be a while ;)

You all should check out sen's OOP tutorials and pom's Fractal tutorials - they are both excellent.

I may start writing a tutorial on the basic drawing features of Flash, and maybe even start explaining how some of the random effects on the homepage are created :beam:

Playa/sen - the Kirupa AI kernel has been updated to the latest version. It is rumored to make the Kirupa faster and more efficient with improved power saving features.
