Re: Problem with flash

Please post your project files so I can diagnose the problem. Sounds like you aren't using fscommands though off hand.

Fscommands are the standard way for flash movies to communicate with host programs and are therefore the way that AMS 4.0 integrates with flash.

Simply use On FS Command > Get FS Comannd in your flash object actions dialog to pass commands to AMS...

Re: Problem with flash

That's easy enough, is your password movie in flash or do you need to create a password system in AMS?

If it's in flash then simply create your movie to generate a given fscommand for AMS based upon he result of the password verification, i.e. "true" or "false" and then direct AMS to either exit or page jump based upon that response.

Re: Problem with flash

OK here download the attached file. In this case I have ste it all up for you. Password is "BlingBling". Here's the actionscript I attached to the button:

on (press) {
if (input == "BlingBling") {
fscommand ("myResponse", "admit");
}
else {
Fscommand ("myResponse", "exit");
}
}


You can see the code in the attached file for the AMS actions...

Re: Problem with flash

Well download the attached file and look at the code above. This is pretty basic stuff, and very easy to understand if you take a look at it.

If you still have problems simply reread the posts in this thread carefully and then re-examine the attached file.

If you still have problems after that simply PM me your name, AMS 4.0 registration info, and exact details of what you are having trouble comprehending in the attached file and I'll be happy to assist you further.
