PROS AND CONS ON FLASH VS GAME MAKER?
Nov 27th
Question by D:
Pros and Cons on Flash VS Game Maker?
I’m a programming major currently and have made a few small games in Visual Basic, and have taken a few courses in flash so i know many of the advanced features such as what action scripting is capable of…
Regardless I have been reading about a program called Game Maker, and off of the official site, there doesn’t seem to be much information about what this program is capable of…nor what the actual syntax (in the included programming language) is like…
So my question is, what do you think the pros and cons of using flash vs game maker are?
I would actually like people to answer that have experience using game maker.

Q&A: VARIABLES QUESTIONS FOR FLASH ACTION SCRIPT – PLEASE HELP!!?
Jul 18th
Question by pb:
Variables questions for Flash Action Script – please help!!?
if you can help me with this you will have my eternal gratitude, im about to go berserk!!
im building a web site, have my main timeline, and several MCs on top of it. each motion picture clip has a specific ‘chaper’ of the web site within it. All MCs are set to _visible = 0 and are on top of each other at the beginning. Then I have buttons on the main timeline, and after each button is clicked it’s supposed to set the corresponding MC to visible=1.
Here’s the problem – each MC has an animated ‘intro’ and ‘outro’ therefore i dont want to just go visible and invisible. I want it to play the animated part first.
I put a loop on the main timeline, and then had each button set the variable ‘chapter’ to a corresponding string entry. i have the main timeline check for the changing variable in the loop, and set the corresponding clip to visible=1 and tell target (each MC) to go and play corresponding frames. that doesn’t work. flash does whatever it wants with it!!
PLEASE HELP!!!

Q&A: FLASH 8 / ACTIONSCRIPT 2 GAME DEVELOPMENT?
May 19th
Question by Backfire:
Flash 8 / ActionScript 2 Game Development?
I used to use Macromedia Flash 8 Pro to make Games, and I loved it. Problem is, I forgot all my game-making knowledge. Yeah, I havent used it for 2 years. I need to know a site, even if it’s old, for common scripts used in game making, ex. hitTest (Collision with objects), Movement, changing sprites, etc.
I think it just needs to be script for ActionScript 2. I WONT use ActionScript 3, because if it’s AS2 I will catch on faster because my memory will jog in. And i remember it being more friendly than AS3
I WILL NOT USE CS3, CS4 OR ANY OTHER VERSION OF FLASH, BECAUSE I LIKE FLASH 8 AND I FIND IT MORE “FRIENDLY” TO ME. Just needed to shout that cause I know people will state “just use CS3/4″ if I don’t

FLASH SITES AND PANDORA NOT WORKING; CERTAIN FILES RENAMING THEMSELVES. HELP!?
Mar 26th
Question by Phil Pearlman:
Flash Sites and Pandora not working; certain files renaming themselves. Help!?
For the last few weeks, I have not been able to access some sites that use Flash 10 applications, getting the error message “A script in this motion picture is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your personal might become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?” Now, whether I select yes or no, my browser crashes. On top of this, Pandora world wide web radio will not load at all, on any browser I have tried on my machine, so I was wondering if that was interconnected.
My other problem involves torrent files. All of the files on my hard drive now sport an additional extension, “.loaded”, rendering them useless. When I get rid of the “.loaded”, it turns back into a torrent, and then subsequently undoes the deletion. Any idea as to why that is happened?
Thanks!
