flash

So I'm wanting to develop a Flash Game. I've built a 'prototype' in javascript, but I want to make the move to Flash for better features, experience, etc. Like many programmers, I'm cheap thrifty, so I'm hoping to go the free route. I've found FlashDevelop, which looks promising. Does anyone...

It's a idiocy to believe that those "flashes" were result of explosives planted in random places, but what is the explanation for this? QJi6ma7nrU8

Has anybody updated to Flash 10.1 recently? It seems that Adobe in their infinite wisdom have moved the preferences pane of my own locally running flash plug-in to a flash script running on their webpage. Which include the settings for turning on and off permissions for activating my webcam...

So they redid the webpage, and it looks nice. Except when I click to download the mp3 file I get the window to "Save file as..."... and then nothing. For a while I only got FlashTmp0.tmp file, but the last couple tries this evening I can't find those. I used to just right click and do a...

I'm having a little trouble using a site called Listkiller. It's a site that offers numerous timed quizzes via a flash interface (you have to log in for most, but for testing purposes, you can use the 3 free games on the home page). I'm using Safari 3.1.1, with Flash 9.0.124.0 and Shockwave...

I can't watch youtube videos anymore because they decided to update their flash thingie. Welllll how cute of them. And they even left a link to download it. Yay. Well, it doesn't work! Yes, of course I clicked on the link they provide. I did so many times. And it took me to this portuguese...

Hi all. I want to produce some web pages which make use of Flash. I can't afford Adobe/Macromedia authoring software so I have been using MotionArtist which is much more reasonably priced. This does everything that I need, except scrolling (dynamic) text. There are other products available but...

I have a Sony ICD-P320 digital recorder, and I've deleted some files that I'd like to recover. According to the manual "once a recording has been erased, you cannot retrieve it.", but I don't believe it. It does have a USB port, but it needs special software (Sony's Digital Voice Recorder) to...

What are the advantages and disadvantages of Flash VS. Java? I know you can distribute java without a license, right? Let me ask a different question. Do all browsers these days come with Java and Flash drivers by default, or do you still have to download them as plug-ins or components?

I have been struggling with this problem for a long time and I don't seem to know where to turn. So I thought I would ask some of the brilliant minds here. I need to make an animation for a song with the bouncing red ball that bounces over the words as the song goes along. I've tried this...

I have some files on a 1G USB flash drive. When I try to access it, I get the warning that "The disk in Drive E is not formatted. Do you want to format it now?" (I've tried on 3 different computers, so it must be a fault with the drive) Are all my files irretreivably lost? :(

I cannot use flash player with my computer. This is a recent change but I am unaware of any changes I made in settings. Is there some seting that I need to make to allow flash player to work? I did recently and regretably download IE 7. Is that it?

Reading the article on mirages, I got remembering... Back when I was about 18, I thought I saw what was called the green flash phenomena, only (memory being unreliable as I was just waking up at the time) it wasn't exactly as described. The way I saw it was that I was just waking up and...

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/news/archive/2006/03/30/national/a100110S72.DTL I just read this article off the AP wires. Most of us are not at all surprised but at least now there is more science. I bet there will be a great hoo haaa ( NO..... It can't be!!!!!) from all...

Anyone have any good programs or sites where I can learn how to make a webpage using primarily macromedia flash. Also if anyone knows where I can get a flash creation program for less than $100 or so I would really appreciate some suggestions.

We were having dinner in the observatory restaurant, before heading up to the telescope for the night and someone suggested, jokingly, that since the Sun was setting we should go and look for the Green Flash. Well we were in no real rush, so we stood and watched the Sun go down, and blow me if...

As I was drag-n-dropping photos from my "removable drive" in File Manager (I refuse to call it "explorer" - what mindless monkey at MS decided to give the file mgr and IE the same basic name anyway).....I realized that my camera memory was basically just like my jump stick, or whatever the hell...

Below you will find an image of which there can be no question of its origin. It is a message for fans of the fastest man alive, the Flash, that he has returned. Which Flash? Jay Garrick? Barry Allen? That part isn't clear, nor is what the message is, but once again, it is no doubt obvious that...

Brightest galactic flash ever detected hits Earth... A huge explosion halfway across the galaxy packed so much power it briefly altered Earth's upper atmosphere in December, astronomers said Friday.. Wow heady stuff. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6994277/

Ridiculous question, it's the bane of my surfing life. I cannot rid myself of that Macromedia Flash. It's insidious player is driving me mad! Is there anyway I can get rid of Flash in the web pages I see? The sound, the incessant movement, the impossibility of getting rid of it. It's too much I...

ABC has called Ohio for Bush! Gasp!

From MSNBC: "On Tuesday [March 30, 2004], Senate Armed Services Chairman John Warner, R-Va., and Intelligence Chairman Pat Roberts, R-Kansas, both called for patience as the search [for WMDs in Iraq] continues." This after the man in charge of the search - Charles Duelfer - reported to...

I'm using LoadVariables to pull in information from an .asp page that is in the web root, but my .swf is several directories down from the root. Does anyone know how I code the location of my .asp page without giving an absolute path name? In otherwords, the I want it to always look towards...

I was wondering if anyone here has experience with Flash animation. I thought it would be interesting to try and make a short film or one of those flash games, but I don't know anything about the process. The penguin game seems to be not too complex, how many hours might have been involved in...

A very large article about this in our Sunday paper. Some researcher, I think from SETI, claims that with our advances in this field, and our probings that have been going on for years now...that aliens will be discovered within 22 years from now. I am not making this up. This was a real matter...

Kind of long, but this flash animation does an excellent job spelling out the basics of freedom and what it means to have life, liberty, and property: http://jonathangullible.com/mmedia/philosop.swf

I have on several occasions heard of a phenomenon associated with the setting sun called the "Green Flash". Can anyone give me the (layman's) explanation for it, and whether there are any places where it can regularly be observed? Has anyone here ever seen it?
