Whatya think about Macromedia Flash? trace Bitmap?

Nice movie, no comments yet...:applause:

boy & girl were made in poser, then exported frame by frame as bitmap, reduced to 3 colors in Photoshop, and then imported and traced in Flash. some more manual optimizing and here we are:) tedious work though...

vectorized sequence is lighter in size than bitmaps, although there are parts made with bitmaps (eg. the burnt in effect somewhere in the middle of the animation).

thanks for your c&c,
frici.

That`s vERy VerY great... like it soOo much:thumbsup:...
but guy can you tell me some thing?...ofcourse you can;) ...
I wanna know how to make a button if the mouse coursor moved on it the coursor stay in ARROW mode and doesn`t change to HAND mode!

thanks Mortazah! :buttrock:

for the button, there are two solutions, a bad and a worse:)

1) first is to make a fake cursor image and lock it to the mouse's _root._xmouse and _root._ymouse coords, while hiding the original mouse itself using Mouse.hide(). That's pretty messy, and there is no way to find out what kind of mouse pointer does the visitor use, so probably you can't make a pointer identical to every user's mouse. however, you can put an os and browser detection script somewhere before the flash and load different mouse pointers... forget it, just kidding, its a hell of a job:)

2) the other solution is somewhat better, however it still uses lots of cpu power (as most mouse tracking solutions does). you have to make a dummy movieclip symbol (1 frame, no content), and put an ActionScript on it, which is running constantly in the background using the "on (enterFrame) { xxx }" stucture. instead of xxx you should put a script which constantly checks the mouse position (see above for code), and evaluates whether it is within the given boundaries. note: there is no button symbol at all in this case! in addition you can watch for events like mouseClick to simulate button functionality.

hope you got the idea:cool:

bye,
frici.
