I'm using Adobe Animate HTML5 to create a board game to run on Smart TV (low-performance machine).
All my previous games were done using AS3.
I quickly found there is no way to create a Sprite anymore (A movie clips with only 1 frame).
After creating my board game (no code yet just elements) which is basically movie clips inside other movie clips. All single frame.
I checked the FPS on LG TV and so it is done from 60 to 20. On a static image.
After research, I found that is the advance method in MovieClip class there is a constant check to update the frame.
I added a change to check if the MovieClip class total frame is equal to 1 to change it the mode of the MovieClip to a single frame. This increases performance back to 60 FPS.
Who do I go to, to check and maybe fix/"add a feature" to the code of createjs
Thanks
code issues or suggestions can be logged here https://github.com/CreateJS/EaselJS/issues for CreateJS. All the best.
inside html-code in script part there is a line
createjs.Ticker.addEventListener("tick", stage);
Remove it and call the update manually when you need it (when something has changed)
stage.update();

I'm using Blender 2.8 and I just have 2 objects: hand and gun and I want to create animations for them. So, for instance, I want to create a simple firing animation. What I do:
1. I create animation for gun
2. I create animation for hand
But if I switch somehow incorrectly I "lose" the first animation I've created. I tried creating fake users and stuff. I just don't get why I select the armature for which I've just created the animation, it plays, but there are no keyframes.
Here's the vid, here's the file.
Ask me questions if you have any.
The movement may be cached in Blender, you may need to reset the movement cache.
Alternatively, you should look at both the Track Controller and Dopesheet(action editor) - the animation may be stored in both.
The movement could be related to parenting ( to an object that is moving )
The movement could also be caused by physics simulation of a rigid body.
Hopefully with the help of the above, you find the problem.
I had the same problem. In the Animation mode (horizontal tabs across the top of the window), click on the object to animate.
The keyframes will appear.
If the object is not selected, the keyframes disappear.
Just leaving this here so that nobody spends 30 minutes trying to work this out, like i just did.
I may be making this harder than what it really is, but I am also pretty new to developing games. Currently I am making a practice scene to get back used to the unity engine as I have not had time to use it since last summer. My issue is that I can not figure out how to lift the camera in game mode. Notice my photo below, and how much of the "underground" is showing. I want to raise the camera to keep it at the very least a specific y axis value, so that I can make less of the ground visible, and more of the background visible. If I am over complicating this, please also let me know. Thank you
If main camera is still then just lift the camera in scene view you can see changes in game view.
Or if camera moves with respect to player then you have to use a script and attach it to camera and get a reference of player transform in the script and according to the player position change position of the camera. Add an offset value in y component of the camera.
I'm building a game in which I can enter a building, which I'm handling via states. In other words, when my character overlaps with the door, the program starts a new state in which the interior of the building is built. Now, I want the interior to have smaller dimensions than the world, so I want to change the game size when I start this new state.
I tried this:
create: function()
{
//game size was 1000x700, I want to scale it to 700x450
game.width = 700;
game.height = 450;
//rest of creation code...
}
I also tried things like changing camera bounds, world bounds, world size, but method above shows the most promise.
The problem, however, is that the resize for some reason does not show until I click away from my browser tab and back. Calling game.width in the console yields 700 at all times, but it doesn't show it as such until tabbing out and back.
On top of that, the contents of the game (floor, furniture) are scaled down when the game resizes, defeating the purpose. I don't understand why it would, since there's no scaling anywhere in my code.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit:
I just saw that you were the one asking the question I linked to, so I guess the question is solved :D
I had a similar problem some time ago. As you described yourself: what you are doing is a resize! So the game resizes itself which means the same as re-scaling everything in the game.
if you want to cut the game smaller you can simply use
game.scale.setGameSize(700, 450);.
(see this post if you need more information)
As additional information: I later had problems with cutting the game size equally on all sides, so if you should come to face the same problem, have a look at this post
I have a queston about movment of object in app (game) I am creating. I tried move ImageView with timer. So every 0.01 second object move for 1px. But movement is not smooth. So i also tried with animations. But there is problem, that if I close app and run it again (app was stil opened in background), there are problems, that picture of View stays on the end of animation. And also I want to check every 0.01 second if moving object and my character did colide, so animation is not the best option. Is there a way to move my object smooth with local time on phone? Or there is some other way to move object?
It sounds like you're not using SpriteKit or any game engine for that matter. Any game engine will come with an update loop that does all of this.

In a project that I am currently working on I have an transparent NSWindow overlayed on a QTMovieView. At certain points I slide a custom view into this child window with animation so that it is displayed over the movie for a short period of time. The only odd behavior is that the animation is smooth on a Mac Book Pro but on a Mac Book(Same OS-X Version) there is significant flicker. The flicker only occurs on the portion of the window that has the actual QTMovie behind it.
Has anyone seen this behavior before or found a way to work around it?
The older MacBooks don't have real video hardware and used shared memory, so it's probably an issue with a slow video card trying to update # 30fps. Have you tried smaller movies to see if the issue goes away?
You may be better off with a pipeline like in the QTCoreVideo101 sample code from Apple. That would be a bit more work, you'd have to take care of the animation yourself, but you would get ultimate control over what is being drawn.
