make a dynamic text then down in the properties tab give it the var: HP and put the text above the good guy, with nothing inside it
do the same thing except for name the var: enemyHP

_root is a global reference of Stage, the main movie
every MC, BT and Graphics are _root's Object properties
that's why we can access a mc in this way:

quote:

_root.myMC_1.myMC2

it's like accessing an object's properties:

quote:

myObj.myProp

but you can also create your own Stage reference by using the var statement(declare a variable):

quote:

var yourReferenceName=_root

or if you need this for your entire movie:

quote:

_global.yourReferenceName=_root

then use it in this way:

quote:

_globa.yourReferenceName.myMC_1.myMC_2

Well then, first things first... I am a TOTAL FLASH NOOB!

A little less than a year ago I had Flash MX. I played around with Flash for TWO DAYS and totally bypassed any and all tutorials.

I made this movie: http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/KennyRawks/RawkMovie.swf
Which is TOTALLY pointless and makes NO SENSE, but I still like it.

And this movie which I am very proud of despite the fact that it is insanely simple: http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/KennyRawks/Rawk.swf

After that I pretty much stopped using Flash and then my computer died. After getting a new computer I have acquired Flash 8 and require assistance from the FlashMasters.

Here is what I'm trying to do:
Someone made a Flash movie and sent me the .fla file. I increased the overall speed of the movie by increasing the framerate. How do I increase the speed of a certain section of the movie? Is there a way I can just highlight the certain section and increase the speed? Or is it really complicated and I have no hope?

After my year of absence from Flash I have forgotten 99.9% of what I knew, so feel free to slap me with a skinned trout and call me a Flash noob.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes, I just got Flash and tinkered with it for two days without even reading any tutorials, it was all trial and error. That was what came to be on the second day.

quote:

how do i make a button?

1)open a flash document
2) create a circle
3)right click on the circle
4) at the bottom look for 'convert to symbol' and click it
5) click the bubble for button and press ok

how do i put it to action?

PRE)make a button
1)on the bottom of the screen there are 3 bars, one of them says actions, open it up by pressing the triangle next to it
2)leftclick on the circle if you had not done so so that the title of the action bar says 'action - button'
3) now type exactly this in the given small white box where you can type:
on(release){gotoAndPlay(2);}

translation: 'on(release)' when you let go of the button '{gotoAndPlay(2);}' go to and play frame 2
you may change the frame to whatever you want

4)click on frame 1 in timeline
5)action tab should say action - frame
6) simply say:
{stop();}
dont put anything inbetween the parenthasis
translation: '{stop();}' stop this frame from playing

look on the front page first
