Is there any way of extending your frames from 500? Is it the same as how you do it in Flash? How do you do it in flash?!

 

[Person]

wot do u mean extending from 500? from or to? u mean the score or wot

 

[guy]

Well when i open a new file, it automatically has 500 frames. and i want more! I want to extend it to heaps

 

[Person]

500 frames of WOT?

for a single cast member?
u can try modify->frame->tempo and change the frames of each cast
why do u need 500 frames per cast anyway
if ur asking to extend the length of the score, hold ctrl and press +

 

[guy]

yeah i think i want to extend the score, so i can have a generally longer animation
ctrl + adds a behavior mabye coz i have a mac

 

[guy]

does anyone know how to get animations on the internet? like a shockwavish sortra thing? ie you go to a link and it says loading, loading, then it shows you

 

[Toodulu]

meh. i'll just do it here. put this in your htm file, and save the animation under the same folder. take out the '*' and edit the stuff i put in blue.

i think file>publish also works

 

[guy]

hey it worked! after some fine tuning
www.members.optusnet.com.au/mlagana
for some reason it left some stuff out

 

[Toodulu]

hey, that looks really good! except i don't really get it. and you have an infinite loop thingy, is it supposed to keep playing?

 

[guy]

ummmmm, yeah i meant to do it
whats there to get! its stupid
but some stage members or cast got left out when i exported!
