Quick Rotation is rather awkward, since there's no score to monitor.. Unless I made the levels count as the score, but I'd have to add a submit button of some kind to it..
Here's Udder Madness and Wacky Wordsearch to keep you occupied.. ;) |

First, you take the main file and look for the bipolar tangent, it should be located in the 2nd frame next to the beginning of the output data mode (FLA). If it isn't then create a block BEFORE THE VAR! Make sure it's an integer or a factoid!! After the clip as complete (before the root) you will need to look for the minime. You will need some knowledge of Flash to do this. It's usually associated next to the "laser" output string. Once this is done you will need to go through the history file and make note of all the statements recorded by the "boosh" protocols. The boosh statements change often but the rest of the program does not seems to understand this. Boosh also outputs various statements that don't make sense... so you will have to redefine them to meet your needs. If that is not done the gameplay will always cause problems, and the correct score will not always be displayed. This will damage the integrity of every gameplayers data storage! Lastly, remember to modify the "game_id" and check if the score of the game is stored as "_root.score". ----------------------------------- It's that easy! :cross-eyed: |
That post above makes about as much sense to me as the real hints. I'm in the same boat.... I have an swf decompiler (swf > fla) and flash mx '04, but I am a noob as well who needs a walkthrough... once I understand the basics I can run with it.
I went through Google's cached storage of the now deleted v3arcade forums and found the following random hints. I think that I may beginning to grasp it, but I'm missing the zipped files it talks about. I'll post my full list of (real) bits of info below.... perhaps someone can put them in perspective for us. I don't know who the authors of these are, so I cannot give the credit to the gurus who originally posted this: random notes taken from v3arcade TIPS If the score is not being submitted, check the following: the page will not be redirected if the score var is invalid the score var must be: - A Number - Integer - Stored as a: _root.score Check if the score is stored in that var name, if not, you can add a small line of code into the mc_arcade movieclip to track our score: Code: PHP Code:
If you don't know which var stores the Score, go to the Game Over Page, select the text that shows What Was Your Score... Click on the text, open the "Properties" Window and there you will see the "var" name ------------------------------- How To Convert Games to v3 Arcade Edit: From John's guide on vBulletin.org. please use this New Guide in instead of the old one since this has new actionscript code to improve new games to work with the challenge minimod... (that you should install btw) Converting Games You will need the .FLA file (game source) to convert a game. Converting a game is quite simple, providing you have some basic knowledge of Flash. Step 1. Create a blank movie clip, containing two keyframes. Step 2. On frame 1 of this blank movieclip, insert this code (not forgetting to change the gamename value to something unique - THIS PRESUMES THAT _root.score CONTAINS THE SCORE VALUE!): Code: PHP Code:
create a new Layer in the flash movie that starts on frame 1 and goes to the last frame of the movie. Insert in the first keyframe the movieclip you just created Step 4. Now, you need to let the game know when to finish the game and redirect the page. This is done by the setting of a new variable, "gameover". When _root.gameover==1, the game will end. Find the FRAME of the "Game Over" page, and add this actionscript to the frame: Code: PHP Code:
Submit and Replay Buttons you have to create two buttons: (you can draw a rectangle an convert it to a button symbol) Replay Button select the the button you just created, paste it in the gameover page, click on properties, and change the "instance name" to replay_button select the button, and then in the Action window insert this code: Code: PHP Code:
select the button you created (or you can create a new one), drag it from the library again and paste it in the gameover page, select the button, and then in the Action window insert this code: Code: PHP Code:
Insert this actionscript in the FIRST frame of the movie, to disable Right-Click on Games... (to prevent cheating) Code: PHP Code:
:) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (note from simtech) Now this one is a bit easier, I was able to see how to create a movieclip & how to insert a blank keyframe but I could not download any attachments because I pulled this list from Google's cache of the now closed website: 1 Attachment(s) More Detailed Instructions for Flash Newbies How to Create a New Movieclip in Macromedia flash Menu: Insert / New Symbol... (Ctrl+F8) Behavior: MovieClip name: mc_arcade Right click on the second frame of the movieclip and select: "Insert blank Keyframe" Select the first frame and add the actionscript posted in the first message of this thread remember to change the "game_id" and check if the score of the game is stored as "_root.score" Note: i just created a movieclip that i think you can import into your movie, remember to edit the actionscript on it. check attachment SIMTECH NOTE: THIS ATTACHMENT IS THE PART THAT I AM MISSING How to paste the Movieclip on the movie: Create a new layer, rename it to "arcade" you will have a blank keyframe in the first frame of the movie. go to the last frame of the movie (in the same layer), right click on the frame and select "Insert Frame" (not keyframe) Open the library (Ctrl+L) drag and drop the "mc_arcade" movieclip into the first frame of the layer "arcade" there you go ;) -------------------------------------------------------------------- If anyone can offer any input on the above two (real) methods it would be appreciated! |
Still Greek to me on a lot of it. As much as I would love to sit down with a $80 book on Flash and how to use it, I just do not have the time to do that right now. I wish I could contribute conversions myself, but until I buy and read a book or someone comes up with a true step-by-step, I am going to have to try to figure it out on my own.
It has been a couple months with me trying to convert a single game and I think I might now know how to insert a frame in a particular scene, but am almost scared to try it and it actually work! |
