No offense man but that cover sucks. It doesnt make you wanna listen the album. +one track to stream would be nice, I usually dont download stuff when Im at work and all, but I still listen to music here too.

Hmm..

I meant

that you have for example three layers in your animation

1. a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
2. b u t t o n _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
3. u r l o o p _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

1. your actionscript layer (a marking the first frame where you put your code)
2. your invisible button that is equal to the frames of your looping animation (NOTE: make your button as movieclip, it doesnt matter in AS3)
3. your animation

name your button-movieclips instance name as button1 or something and just paste this code:

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

animation1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);

function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
    animation1.gotoAndPlay(47);
}

And bam, it works. I just tested it in like 5 minutes. Your second piece of code looks really complicated and I dont really understand it. Then again, I'm graphic designer and only do this when I have to:)

Metal Gear Solid 4 is a really top quality game.

Metal Gear Online is pretty darn fun, too!

I thought it was boring, the plot was corny as fuck, japanese "humour" was very awkward and there were waaayy too many cutscenes and useless chitchat. IMHO Every part of the gameplay has been done better in other games. Some nice graphics though.

Oh and of course, 64Mula. I guess old dudes/people with demoscene-connections know them but havent seen their name mentioned much/at all on here or 8bc.

We're playing with them on saturday, woot!

Especially 'Superhighway' and 'Air Bus' are great, they have heavy Solvent-kind of vibe on them.

so i have a flash animation that i'm working with,
and i want to be able to have one section of it loop until i press a key or click the mouse or something
i have a

gotoAndPlay(1);

to do the loop, and then I've tried several things, right now, in a separate layer from the loop, i have

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);

function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
    gotoAndPlay(47);
}

to try and make it jump to the next portion

i don't really know what i'm doing so any help would be appreciated

In AS3 you need to have instance names (bottom left corner on preferences of movieclip) on movieclips.

So If you have a movieclip with your animation in it and you would name it animation1 or something:

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

animation1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);

function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
    animation1.gotoAndPlay(47);
}

oh, and put that code on root-level of your .fla, it's easier to modify it later that way and easier to refer on movieclips inside other movieclips etc:)

If you dont have your animation on movieclip then you would need to do a invisible button over your animation and refer to the buttons instance name on your code.

you should generally always quote i think.

I guess that's right ...but I'm too lazy for that:D

I guess she just says it's experimental electronic music or something. She's very supportive about it though and even has her own Casio SA-10:) I guess the real test would be to have Videovalvontaa rehearsal at our place haha.

If thumbs up/down are invisible, but the ratio of up:down is visible, I think it could be useful. Perhaps shown with a small colored square near the track, using a pink-gray-blue gradient (typical easy-to-read red to green, but matching the site's existing color scheme) for negative-neutral-positive.

This, maybe up/down arrows or those squares.

+tags.

+how trash80 described the calculation process earlier.

For me this conversation is more about how I want to find stuff that I probably like and sometimes from artists that arent really that famous. And Norock's idea would give good advice what's generally popular AND if it's calculated in some way like Trash described it, then it would give a chance to lesser known artists. When I'm thinking this from as a artist uploading point of view, I really don't care how people would rate my stuff, people should have REALISTIC confidence about what they are doing!

btw, am I the only one who would like to have post numbers visible? Like when you put a mouse over the post it could be on the right bottom corner in just visible grey or something. Or having them just at the quoting/reply page, sometimes it's handy/easier to just say "yeah just like UserX said on post #58 above" than have multiple quotes.

edit:

And as Akira said,

While I'm at it, please stop regurgitating threads from other forums, specially NON CHIPMUSIC ones. It's silly  and degrades the top quality of this place.

PS3 is the only gaming platform for me too these days. At the moment I'm playing Assassins Creed II, Vegas 2 slowly on splitscreen co-op, GTAIV rerun, hunting some trophys from PixelJunk Shooter. My girlfriend is addicted to Critter Crunch and Lemmings (which we play together but she doesn't get all pissed up on it like me:D)
