TUTORIAL Intro to Actionscript 3.0

This is the eBook version of the printed book. If the print book includes a CD-ROM, this content is not included within the eBook version. Anyone with moderate Macromedia Flash experience who is looking to acquire or improve their understanding of ActionScript will find this book a valuable resource. Author Gary Rosenzweig is highly respected in the Macromedia community and pioneered the use of advanced programming techniques in Macromedia Flash. For this edition, he has updated the games from the previous edition and has added several new projects. Each chapter studies and then deconstructs a new type of game or gadget such as hunt and click games, catch and avoid games, or action and adventure games and the CD contains the project source code.
Provides information on using ActionScript 2.0 to create a variety of applications.
I'm not new to Flash development but I AM new to ActionScript 3.0. Even for the games I may have coded in AS 2.0, there is tremendous value in seeing them revised for Flash's new language. As for the others - wow. So many opportunities to grow as a developer from these examples. Bonus - I love Gary's conversational style of writing. I feel like he's right there mentoring me while I'm working through the code and the logic behind it. Thank you so very much - this is exactly what I was looking for. ...
I recommend this book if you are moving from AS2 to AS3, even if you are not interested in writing games. Gary does not claim it is suitable for beginners without any programming experience but it is more suitable than Moock's "Essential ActionScript 3.0" (which does make such a claim). However it is not for web designers that don't want to learn programming and it is not for advanced programmers that appreciate Moock's AS3 book.

In this tutorial, the younger and skinnier Perkins brother, Todd, gives you an intro to the brand new version of Actionscript in Flash CS3.

Seems like the syntax changed but nothing new or revolutionary. You can do this all in AS2, it's just different code. ???!?!?!

I'm trying to learn AS 2.0. Now we got AS 3.0. Oh Drats man!

Don't say that. AS2 was good.

Dude, your voice owns. Lol.

Good info, however "intro to actionscript 3.0" doesn't really capture the nature of your video. It more of a fix to problem you had in the past...

This tutorial is phenomenal. I'm new to actionscript but not new to scripting languages; this was the key I needed. All my movies/symbols will be classes. Easy and awesome.

make sure that you named the class "Face" and not "face". it's case sensitive.
squishybrian (January 1, 1970 at 12:59 am)
yeah mine worked too, but only showed a little bit because it was mostly off the stage area. :(

I don't understand all this class stuff.I still think attachMovie in 1.0 is more simple
