    Annoying Flash problem?

    Hey guys, I'm working on an animation for animation class, and I just finished my animations and am getting ready to put some sound in...and i find out that the whole thing has gone to ****. Basicly, flash seems to run as fast as it can on that persons PC, so that means, if you have a good pc, the sound will be out of synch. and vise versa. Also, this means that my animations will be too fast on one persons computer and the right speed on another...Is there any way to fix this? Cause if not, this really is a swift nut kick to my inspiration

    Thanks in advance.

    I don't know what's going on, but if that were always the case, places like homestarrunner.com and newgrounds.com wouldn't likely exist. There's gotta be a "sync with all computers" option or something like that.

      Not sure how programing oriented flash is as I have never worked with it, but there should be some kind of wait or sleep command. Since I'm sure it works off of some kind of thread object for the loop, you just need to make sure you are waiting between each frame a specific amount of time. What you explained is what happens when there is not wait, or sleep command in a thread, it just goes as fast as possible unless interupted.

      Wish I actually knew flash so I could give you specific tips and syntax, but look for something like that. I know this is what happened to old programs which just used for loops, with no wait/sleep commands. So to get 30 frames a second you would want to wait/sleep for 1/30 seconds between each frame. Now this doesn't take into account how long it took to draw that frame, so really it's

      1/(fps) - (time it took to draw frame) seconds

      You need to wait each frame. This makes sure it goes at the same speed.

      So if you're using code could you paste that, along with a manual link for flash. I'll look over it for a little while see if I can't help you find a command similar to what I'm talking about.

        The way flash works, you dont have to have code to do animations. For the manual, i think this is it: http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/flash/

        thanks for you guys responces, i was afraid this topic would die unnoticed.

          This looks fairly useful if you haven't looked at something similar

          http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash...=00000649.html

          From that it seems that maybe you didn't set a frame rate for your movie.
          Or maybe you're frame rate isn't matching your data rate.

            You have to set the frame rate at the beginning of the flash movie, otherwise it defaults to something around 12-20 i believe.
