Concept Project

I like this project but it needs help. Any sugguestions?

Edit: For some reason you have to right click and select play.

doesnt do it for me at all... That stone background is: blah... I dunno looks 90's-ish to me. Really the only thing I think is worth developing is your rollover idea (though a rollout effect is needed). Oh and your movie doesnt play automatically, I had to right click-it and select play.

Dont take that too harsh, Im just being honest ;) :D

Peace

bah! Harsh what is that? I like criticism of all forms, especially the honest kind. Also i agree it needs a roll-out but i don't know how to do that... Is there an out button state?

[Ryall]

you can just pop this script on the MC your using and it will play forward on rollover then reverse on rollout


onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
this.nextFrame();
} else {
this.prevFrame();
}
}

^ sweet thanks man, helped me out too

[j_polo9]

sweet thanks, can't quite figure out how to use it though. Do i place it on the actions for the MC on the Over state, or inside the MC, or do i not use a button at all but an MC?

Ehm here is the FLA if show might be easier than tell

I personally never use buttons, always MC's... so yes use an MC with your animation in it (be sure to place stop(); actions.

Then past that code into the instance of said MC on the time line. Then youre all good. :thumb:

bah! can't seem to figure out the logic for this. Any chance you can take a look at my fla? I have the MC with an Off frame, rollOn, and rollOut. On the timeline on the mc i have the code:


onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
rockWallsAndTeracing.gotoAndStop("rollOn");
} else {
rockWallsAndTeracing.gotoAndStop("rollOff");
}
}

:) youre still looking at it the wrong way... you tried to create a MC like a button (over out frames)... just use an MC with the animation... ;)

I'll show you with a fla... just one sec

Peace

[Ryall]

k... here is an example .fla it should make it really easy to see whats going on, and how easy it is to apply - once you get it ;) I'm sure you'll kick yourself, cuz its more simple than what you were thinking :beam:

Let me know how it turns out! :thumb:

lol, sweet thanks, i think i get it now... and yes that is a lot more simple than what i was thinking :S Thanks for all your help! Any sugguestions on making the rollovers look better? Anyway i can make the rocks look less 90's ish?

Edit: I updated the flash file with the rollout, thanks to Ryall!!
