exercises done

I have all my exercises done and up on the server.  I don't know if you've taken a look at them already but they should all be there right now.  Project 1 coming soon...

exercise 3 stuff

Okay, I have been working on this pretty much the whole week and when I went to the lab earlier today, the lab monitor didn't show up, and therefore, I wasn't able to get in and put my work on the server.  Furthermore, because I do not know how to upload swf files and was originally intending on submitting my work through the server, I will talk about my work right here.  For "Marcus_exercise3a(1)", I used Cloud's motorcycle from the movie "Final Fantasy VII Advent Children" to just accelerate forward.  For "Marcus_exercise3a(2)", I used a sports car to make it look like he was racing toward something.  For "Marcus_exercise3a(3)", I took a car that I drew last semester from my sketchbook and made it come alive.  I know the movements are pretty straightforward and that's because I wasn't familiar with how to make them perform differently while moving or accelerating.  Now moving on to the second part of this assignment.  I didn't have much of a problem with this part as I used the shooter codes as reference and I used a gun, bullet, and a target to make this happen.  The gun will spin around 360 degrees with the mouse and shoot bullets with every click while targets randomly show up on stage.  I will have my work on the server probably by tomorrow morning a little before class starts.

exercise 2

I got my character performing a couple actions but there was one major problem..I can't get him to walk to the right when I can get him to walk left, duck, and jump.  I think it has something to do with my code in ActionScript but I couldn't find what was wrong with it (the error message doesn't pop up when I test the movie).  I will ask you about it tomorrow in class.  I'm also not sure how to post fla and swf files onto blogger so I will have the files inside the CAR server.
