i am a complete flash numpty..

what's a good frame rate for a flash animation?

i know 24 frames is an animation standard.. but flash comes up with 12fps by default.. which looks bloody awful.

is there a happy medium?

[d*d]

31 fps or 19 fps

[Herr Kurm]

what he said ^

being a printfag like me do you consider flash a total pain in the arse too?

Or its just me that I can get my head around Cinema 4D but not Flash.

[Do Gooder]

i'm all a bit new to flash... don't mind the time line editing stuff. used to do a bit of work on avid... long ago.

actionscript... ain't got a clue!

cinema 4d is a beast onto itself! i can... just about... draw a cube in it.

[Do Gooder]

oh. and yes. thanks chaps!

Any reason why those two numbers d*d? I'm hoping to learn something here as I've always used 24.

they provide the most consistency across the different platforms (apparently) 19 fps is the standard for banner ads.

[Shiro]

I didn't know that. I've always used 24fps.

Oh right! So is it 19fps for banner ads, and 31 for other web based design?

kind of, banners need to work on a wide range of processor speeds so a lower fps is considered best

[Do Gooder]

Hahaha.

I was wanting this to look childish.. but.. Jesus.

flash

am a flash guru now.

It's a masterpiece Mr Gooder.

And I thought Top Buzz had some Flash skills, you have taken things to a new level with this seamless, slick animation.

kick the ball......... KICK THE BALL.... AGAIN...... AGAIN.



AGAIN!

Try making the blokes head into a button then apply some actionscript.

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

And add a stop command at frame 1.

Then you'll have a bit of control.

And you could try easing the ball in and out on its path.

i read about it being 24 or 30 and never go beyond 30 or something unless u are doing flash video website.

[appleeatsorange]

The three best FPS rates to be using are 21, 31, and 59. These three FPS are the only rates that perform equally on both a MAC based Flash plug-in and a PC-based one. Most other framerates when run on a MAC will run anywhere between 2-5 FPS slower than it would if run on a PC.

[webmaster1st]

I use 40 for photos animations

[RaelRode]

I've always used 21.

[Fjaldar]

I use 24 usually, but I came to check if there are more. So thanks for this thread, really learned a lot from here.
