Direction indicators in flash - help pls

MC_Stoo · 07-07-2005, 12:53 PM

I've just knocked together a quick flash movie which will hopefully enable direction indicators to be shown from FD on a RR screen.

I need someone who knows their way around flash who can test and debug as necessary

I'll provide the .swf and .fla files

yes, i would also like to use direction arrows in my skin.
could you just post the files somewhere?

If you upload the file I will be mroe than happy to test it. Will just implement it into the zots skin and take my car for a spin

Ok, bear in mind I have NO IDEA whether or not this will work

.swf and .fla enclosed in the attached ZIP file...

You'll obviously need to edit whatever skin you're using to include the .swf file

hey jeeve5, how do you implement flash into a roadrunner skin with a freedrive call?

you will first need to add few lines to your skin file you wish it to appear in, one will be to add the swf file, then you will need to add the variables that stoo has used in the file.. like CUSTOMFDNEXTMAN for the indicator and if he has included a dynamic text for the distance.. then CUSTOMFDNEXTMANDIST

You will also need to alter the sdk.ini file.. just stick something like

FDNEXTMAN = RoadRunner
FDNEXTMANDIST = RoadRunner

this will tell freedrive to send the info to roadrunner.

thats about it.. not looked at stoo's flash, too busy tbh

OK, I will give it a try tomorrow. Just keep in mind I am trying and dunno if it'll work either

Right now I am about ready to get wasted

Have a nice weekend everyone.

Bumpy

anyone tried this yet?

Jeeve5 · 07-11-2005, 06:44 AM

Well I was really busy this wekeend, but I tried and really didn't get it work at all. Since I am Flash noob though I dunno where the problem could be

cannot can the flash to play inside rr, will try to inverstigate when i get to the gps part of my skin

bo96 · 07-19-2005, 05:52 AM

tried some more but no joy.

any progress on this?

or maybe a I skin command could work (like the blinking mute thing) to do something similar. (guino is it possible to use these things with dynamic input? i don't think so but it's hard to keep up with the rapid dev. you do)

Yeh, think I got my flash code wrong.

DiNASTY is currently working on this for his new skin
