[..YouTube..] very well, but what if I am to create a background that scrolls indefinetly, in an endless loop, like in the flintstones?
[..YouTube..] (.)(.) ) . (( Y ) I win
[..YouTube..] Interesting chin
[..YouTube..] hey chad can the this panning work just as well in cs3?
[..YouTube..] ( . Y . ) I think I got it.
[..YouTube..] each object of background need to convert to symbols (movie clip or graphic)????
[..YouTube..] @B7571 fail… (-)Y(-)
[..YouTube..] @mccranky2 ah dangit
[..YouTube..] @B7571 didnt work
[..YouTube..] no top comments its my time to shine….. AHEM… Boobies
[..YouTube..] thanks nice video
[..YouTube..] Your making it way to complicated, but I know most about flash from you,
[..YouTube..] Thank you sooooooooo much. Classic tween ftw. :3
[..YouTube..] thank you so much bro! YOU, and your videos are the BEST..
[..YouTube..] howmuch does Cs4 run for?as in like 100 dollars or what?
[..YouTube..] helped A LOT!! thanks dude!! youre really good at this, cheers”
[..YouTube..] Your making it so much more comlicated then it needs to be
[..YouTube..] @Claymore2408 My way around that would be to copy the background, and place the duplicate right next to the original. Then, tween both of them like normal, but make sure that the end of the tween ends up in the exact same spot on the duplicate as it was at the beginning on the original. This will create a seemless effect. Kinda hard to explain, I hope I explained it well enough, haha XD
[..YouTube..] just a question guys, i have a weird problem here.why cant i use the classic tween? why is it not clickable?Im sure i did what he did in the vid and still its not available. any answer guys? please i really need answer thanks
[..YouTube..] @Claymore2408 that’s exactly what i would want to know aswell
[..YouTube..] 4 people have this a thumbs down before watching.
[..YouTube..] how do i make the background loop? so it continiously plays with out the blinking affect comes so people can check where the error is. I’m trying to make a background for a scrolling game where it has to loop.
[..YouTube..] that road looks dangerous to walk on..it’s all rocky o.o
It is so simple and great
Thanks

[..YouTube..] @shadowdachampionpony you just have to delete the background things you dont want
[..YouTube..] Thankyou this was so helpful but I have a question… Or rather a problem
Okay, Im new to flash so bear with me! Ive finished it all but when I go to save it it saves the extra background aswell – as in the stuff thats off canvas… How do you get it to save purely what is on the canvas??? Thanks, champ. x
[..YouTube..] lol he could’ve done the moonwalk
[..YouTube..] Thanks for the tutorial. It’s exactly what I’m looking for
[..YouTube..] i have started hearing your voice everywhere. I am making a cartoon thanks to your tutorials!!
[..YouTube..] Thanks it really helped
[..YouTube..] arrgh whenever my movie does it, as it scrolls the background everything goes all higldy pigldy and wierd and the layers and shapes don’t move together, they just go all over the place. Any solutions??
[..YouTube..] @SheerEpicness he he… itiot :3
[..YouTube..] how can i get a looping background.. like make it loop for a long time
[..YouTube..] whoever disliked thsi is an itiot
[..YouTube..] i enter in my character symbol and i am editing my character’s walk. when i go back from the simbol, to scene, it still doesn’t walk… what am i doing wrong?
[..YouTube..] YOU ARE AWESOME I BEEN SEARCHING FOR HOURS TRYING TO FIND A TUTORIAL FOR THISS I LOVEEE YOUU!! LOL
[..YouTube..] you make great tutorials that are easy to follow along with and extremely helpfull. I wouldnt know what the fuck to do with cs4 if you hadnt taken the time to make them. So i want to thank you for doing this, you are a true dojo master of flash. With that being said…. holy fucking christ is your voice annoying. sorry, but ive been hearing it alot lately.
[..YouTube..] @MegaSims2Movies Lol
[..YouTube..]
excellent tutorial
[..YouTube..] This was very helpful, thank you!!
[..YouTube..] Very nice tutorials. Thank you very much.
[..YouTube..] Thanks so much for these tutorials…it will really help getting me started!
[..YouTube..] You flash genious, I only know like 1/3rd of what you know!Thanks for this tutorial.
[..YouTube..] thank u
[..YouTube..] @itsChrisLife he has made animations, alot of them based on all the tutorials, dickhead wanker
[..YouTube..] I can do this, but when I click test movie, it shows the full background at its full length, and not the usual size of the white canvas, how can I fix this, or will it not be a problem once i export the animation to a file type.
[..YouTube..] MAKE AN ANIMATION! NOT A TUTORIAL,ANIMATION!!!
[..YouTube..] ty vm but can you make another animation plz
i always look foward to them
[..YouTube..] You could of just said to create a path out of the camera, drag it, and create classic tweens but whatever.
[..YouTube..] Great tutorial ive been wondering how to do that for a while now but same asprizna123 when i make a character in another flsh file i dont know how to put him into oter flash files
[..YouTube..] @DaCukieMonsta For me, it’s no, my primary school got no mac but windows, and also my secondary school.I bet there will be more answer of no to this questionFor sure
[..YouTube..] @badmonkeyballplayer more people using windows becouse macs are expensive. and yes, in my school we have only macs, 14 emacs g4 and 8 imacs g5
[..YouTube..] @PurpleConspiracy not everybody knows how to do this stuff. hes just trying to help.
[..YouTube..] Great Tutorial, could you possibly make a tutorial on how to go about bringing a character that has already been assigned armatures from one flash file into another flash file, or possibly how to add multiple animations to a character like talking (moving mouth) blinking and walking, I understand how to do them seperately but am having trouble adding all three animations to the one character together.
[..YouTube..] ……..Thats it? all you did was slightly scroll a background. I figured that out when I was 11….. This was a terrible tutorial…. I at least thought it would be a repeating scrolling background. Fail
[..YouTube..] Your videos are so god damn helpful! Its like having a little animation tutorial bible here, its very much appreciated – thanks a lot for making them
[..YouTube..] At the 9:26, how did you make the frames go upto over 100?
[..YouTube..] @DaCukieMonsta but normally more people are using windows than using macMaybe those guys who make flash games are using macBut those are experts, they don’t need these simple tutorialBesides, does your school contains more mac than windows?
[..YouTube..] @badmonkeyballplayer but mac is more compatible, faster and easier to use so usually all animators and graphic editors uses mac
[..YouTube..] ty so much its very help to me!
[..YouTube..] I think it’s simpleBTW, why you use Mac, not windows? I think windows is more commonLike what I said, I would like to learn as1.0&2.0or maybe as3.0
