Hello, firstly I would like to say wow. Your website is pretty amazing, 15 pages of pure actionscript snippets, etc. It has been very helpful…
I would also like to ask a question, does reading other peoples codes help me learn? Because I love flash and I am really enthusiastic as I have already made two simple AS2 games a while ago, but never got round to making more.
I would really love to learn more AS, and hopefully with your help and advice. Do you have any? Does reading other scripts help?
Thanks, hope to speak soon!
Hi StapledPuppet, I’m glad you like the site
To answer your very broad question; yes, reading other people’s scripts does help.
Advice? Read Essential Actionscript by Colin Moock.
Hmm, I might check that book up. Also, another question, will learning actionscript make it easier to learn languages such as C++, because I find that C++ is too hard for at this current time…
AS3 and C++ both share the same fundamental Object Oriented Programing principles. Once you understand OOP, you’ll be able to problem in any language.
Ahh, phew… Good to know.
I was wondering, you know your dynamic boxes? Could you make it so you can click an arrow and a conversation moves on?
Sorry StapledPuppet, at this point I cannot accept requests. Try one of the forums in on the “Resources” page.
No, i am not asking you to make it, I was asking if it can be done?
If you can dream it, you can make it
Hi, thanks for the nice examples! I want to ask, why do you use jpg instead of vector squares? is it faster to render?
