Question on designing a trivia game with Flash

Hello everyone! I am new to Flash and I was wondering, if sites like http://www.conquiztador.de/ are made entirely in Flash or is there more to it?
Thank you for your answers.

Simple answer: yes. More complicated answer: sort of. The quiz that makes up most of the opening page is done in Flash. There is some sort of back end that keeps track of the users' scores. This was done using something else, javascript, Perl, PHP, or a combination of those and maybe something else. Most of the other sections of that site are not done in Flash.

First off.. Flash 5 is like.. Ancient. Dude. Seriously, thats
more than
3 versions ago, and there have been major major changes
since.
However, I'll give it a try..
First off, there has to be some kind of an event that kicks
it off. I
would build something into the score system that would
trigger this.
For example.
function updateScore():Void {
_root.stage.scoreboard.text = myNewScore;
if (myNewScore > 2000) {
jumpToNextLevel();
So, somewhere in your game a variable keeps the score.. if
your game
runs the updateScore function once in a while, if it hits
more than
2000, it triggers a new function called jumpToNextLevel.
In the jumpToNextLevel, you would have to do more functions
like
pauseTheGame(), and such..
In general.. break it down to small pieces of what you want
to do. Each
function would do a series of things.. Then when your going
though your
game, you call each function as needed.
Hope this helps

How to code a ps3 question game in flash 3.0?

i am looking to make a simple ps3 game in actionscript 3.0. what i am aiming to do is, have scores for player one and player 2, I would also like to have the option to add players if at all possible up to say 6 players. I would also like to have say 1000 questions about movie trivia only appear in random order and wont re appear for the rest of a game once asked. for the next part i will use an example. Lets say player one is asked a question and gets it wrong player 2 answers the question and gets it right. how would I go about making player one get no points and player 2 get say 100 points? If say 2 players are playing and one gets it wrong and the other gets it worong or right the computer will reveal in a green highlight what is the right answer. I know I probably wont get all my answers solved i realize this is a complex thing to code i just cant find tutorials or answers anywhere on coding actionscript 3.0 for a ps3 game. and how to basis of a game like this is created.

You aren't likely to get any of your questions answered for the reasons you already identified, and I imagine you would not find a tutorial for something as complex as what you are prusuong.. You need to learn how to design with Flash, and a forum is not a place where you are going to get that kind of help. If you have code and/or a design issue that you need help with then that's where a forum might be of use to you.

Need a little help with a trivia game

Hey guys I was wondering if I could get some help. I'm taking a class at school for java programming and its my first class. And I have to do a final assignment, which is to make a java trivia game. I have all the parts coded already pretty sure. Now be forewarned that I'm not "that" great at programming.
But the part that I'm stuck on and cant really get any help on is this: For the game I need to have a file with all the questions and answers, which is created already and works. The file writer has the question, choice 1, choice 2, choice 3, choice 4 and the answer written to it, in that order. We needed to implement a GUI and I coded that as a message label on top where the question will go, in the middle 4 radio buttons where the choices to the answer will go and on the bottom a next question, ok and quit button.
My question is this: How do I pull the information from the file that was written to appear in the GUI, such as the question and the choices for the answers for the question? ANY and ALL help would be appreciated

Read the information using a BufferedReader wrapped around a FileReader. Change your GUI using setText on the component you want to display the text.
Edit: An example that does both things
import java.io.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class FileAndSwing {
   public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
      BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
            new FileReader("FileAndSwing.java"));
      StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
      for ( String line = null; (line = reader.readLine()) != null; ) {
         builder.append(line).append("\n");
      JFrame frame = new JFrame("FileAndSwing.java");
      frame.setSize(500, 500);
      JTextArea field = new JTextArea();
      frame.add(field);
      field.setText(builder.toString());
      frame.setVisible(true);
}This is also kind of a Quine :-).

What's the most impressive iPhone game made with Flash that you've seen ?
I'm trying to decide whether to port an existing Flash game over using cocos2d, or whether to adapt it for the iPhone packager...
I've been looking at other apps made with Flash, and I'm not that confident the performance is there yet.....but maybe I haven't seen the right apps ....

Flashing question mark on mac book pro,with grey screen when turned on?

flashing question mark on mac book pro,with grey screen when turned on?

Press the power button down to force a emergency hardware shutdown and hold the option/alt key down and reboot
If you see your OS X boot partition, then click it and the arrow, head to System Preferences > Startup Disk and reset it. Done.
Folder with question mark issue
If that doesn't it, then do a #2 PRAM reset and try the above again.
..Step by Step to fix your Mac
If no OS X boot volume appears in Startup Manager, then OS X is corrupted.
Try more of the Steps above (like 1-8) then if that doesn't work.
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
Once you got your data off, erase and reinstall OS X onto the MacintoshHD partition and then restore from TimeMachine or bootable clone if you have it. or build new and return users files from the data recovery drive.
Most commonly used backup methods
If the drive doesn't appear in Disk Utility it might be dead or there are further complications let us know for further assistance.

White screen with flashing file icon with question mark mean

What does this mean. We are getting a white screen with flashing file icon with question mark inside the file.

It almost certainly means it can't find a bootable volume (one with OS X on it).
Which means most likely you will have to find your original system installation DVD and install it. Then you should figure out what caused the problem.
Read this to diagnose it before resorting to reinstalling the OS:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1440
Excerpt:
Additional steps
If your Mac still starts to a flashing question mark, follow the steps below. If any step resolves the issue, you don't need to continue to the next one.
Select your Mac OS X startup disk with Startup Manager by restarting and holding the Option key. After your Mac starts up, restart again to verify that the flashing question mark does not appear.
If the issue persists, insert your Mac OS X installation disc. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc.
MacBook Air note: On a MacBook Air, there are two options for starting up from Mac OS X media: Either connect a MacBook Air SuperDrive to the MacBook Air via the USB port and restart the computer, holding down the C key during startup, or use Remote Install Mac OS X to startup from a system software DVD that's located on a partner computer. Once started up from Mac OS X media, skip to step 3.
Restart the computer, then hold the C key during startup.
From the Utilities menu, choose Disk Utility. Don't click Continue.
Select your Mac OS X disk (named "Macintosh HD" by default) in the left side of the Disk Utility window.
Click the First Aid tab.
Click Repair Disk to verify and repair any issues with your Mac OS X startup disk.
After repairing the disk, try to start up normally.
Important: If Disk Utility finds issues it cannot repair, you may need to back up as much of your data as possible (or use Time Machine to back up to a different disk), then erase the disk and reinstall Mac OS X. You should back up important files and data before erasing a drive. Erasing deletes everything on the hard disk (including things on your desktop). Also, you can install Mac OS X onto an external disk, start from the external disk, and use Migration Assistant to transfer items from your usual internal Mac OS X startup disk to the external disk, then erase the internal disk and reinstall Mac OS X.
If the issue persists, and Disk Utility didn't find any irreparable issues, quit Disk Utility, quit the Installer, select your disk when prompted, and restart.
If the issue continues, reset PRAM. Note: After resetting PRAM, if the computer starts up normally, reselect the startup disk in the Startup Disk preferences.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, start up from the Mac OS X Installation disc and reinstall Mac OS X.

Apple home start page will not start and games will not load with flash.

Apple home start page will not start and games will not load with flash.

Never mind...I just figured it out. Restore windows when quitting box in Gen Prefs must be unchecked. To many new little things.

After the recent update I am having issues with Flash based games freezing and not responding.

After the recent update I am having issues with flash based programs not running or loading correctly. The programs will not load or take an extremely long time to load compared to jsut a few days ago. This happens across the board on anything flash based. Also, once they do load they will freeze, stop responding or need to be constantly refreshed to come back alive which is short lived at best. I went thru the help and did all the file deleting, cache clearing, disabling hardware acceleration, removing then reinstalling flash, and even removing and reinstalling my browsers. None of this has helped at all. I am using Chrome and it is up to date and I checked my Flash player and it is up to date. I am running windows 7 64bit.

Here's what you're up against guys,
Adobe writes the base code for Flash Player, and then hands it off to Google, who adapt it to a PPAPI plug-in (it's NPAPI when Adobe writes it). It's then "PepperFlash" and Google embeds it in their Chrome browser. While Google is pushing a "webwide" move to PPAPI Flash Content, a reinvention of the wheel so to speak, not everyone "got the memo", and Google is slowly making it so that PepperFlash will block NPAPI Flash content from running properly, and you have to disable PepperFlash to force the NPAPI plug-in to work, which sometimes fixes it, sometimes not. I have a feeling this is only going to get worse. HTML5 will eventually resolve the video end but game developers need to come up with something that won't require a plug-in.
And to the first post: Since PepperFlash is embedded in Chrome by Google, you can uninstall and reinstall Flash Player from here until your hard drive literally seizes up.... guess what? It has NO EFFECT at all on the PepperFlash plug-in in Chrome because it's a separate file in a separate folder and the uninstaller & installers don't have anything to do with it.

White screen with flashing question mark

A flashing question mark or globe appears when you start your Mac

Forwarded pictures turn into little squares with flashing question mark

Occasionally someone forwards me some email with supposed picture attachments but the pictures don't forward and are represented by little squares with flashing question marks.
Any idea what causes this?
(I use Mac mail and Safari).
-Louise

There are a few things that cause this, I've found.
Sometimes it's because the email includes images in a format that Mail doesn't like, but it can also be because the attached graphics had their names changed (or were deleted completely) by an outgoing- or incoming-mail virus scanner, or because the graphics weren't really included in the email, but were really just HTML links to images stored on a web site somewhere, and the site has gone down or moved the images.
You can usually tell which has happened by looking at the message's attachments. If there aren't any attachments, then either they've been deleted or stripped from the message, or the message points to dead Internet links.
If there are attached files, you can look at them to see if they have names that look funny (e.g., many virus programs add the word "DEFANGED" to file names), and might have been changed. Also see if they come up with the right icon (Picture icon saying JPEG, GIF, BMP, or PNG, usually). If they're just plain white generic file icons, then they might be something that your computer can't read.
