This lesson is a free-release because it is NOT up to our usual standards of quality. The teaching in the lesson isn't bad at all, but the screencapture came out fuzzy. You'll see what I mean. Somehow the top is kinda crisp and the middle is all fuzzed out. And also half of the screen real estate is […]

Here's the first hour of our Flash and CMS course on creating client updateable text. This lesson comes from our new "CMS" section of CartoonSmart.com . And don't forget, these are all in HD, so if you enlarge to fullscreen reading the code should be much easier.

An oldie but a goodie. Recorded this hour-plus tutorial sometime around when CS3 (not 4) launched and takes you step by step through loading external swf files into an Actionscript 3 parent file. The .swf's you load in can also be unloaded later, and can be both AS2 or AS3 swfs. It also teaches preloading […]

Okay this is my first real testing session with Animate Pro. I installed it a couple weeks ago and as quick as possible turned some jpgs on their sides, rotated on the x, y, & z just to see the promised "true" 3D that Pro boasted.... Well today I managed to find a few hours to myself to really do the […]

This was a good looking test in Flash, although I did this after […]

Okay, I'm very satisfied with this Animate test. If anyone reading this is familiar with the term Z-depth, thats one of things I was testing. The flippers, ball, camera, and bumper all have their own Z-depth (x=left or right, y=up or down, z=back and forward). So the flippers and bumper have a constant […]

This isn't perfect yet, but for a quick test (quick being a relative term) it came out worthy of posting here. The table top is actually a PNG file thats already been distorted in Photoshop, so its not actually lying flat in Animate. Which accounts for some of the slight shifting with the flippers. Its […]
