I’m completely new to flint and don’t know how to create particles just yet.

I was wondering how hard would it be to create an explosion. What I want to do is simulate an explosion that will leave some smoke after the explosion.

Is this something that can be easily done with flint?

How hard would this be?

What do I need to know in order for me to start creating particles? I have created the Snowfall effect but it is hard to understand how to start different effects.

If someone have an idea on how to create this explosion effect and can post some examples I would highly appreciate.

Thanks,

If you download the examples, you'll find an example explosion effect in there, along with many other examples. The examples are in the downloads section.

For some reason the examples I downloaded don't work, I can see the effect just because there is an swf file already compiled, but if I try to compile the fla files I don't see anything, I don't get ...

Any idea?

I've no idea why the examples aren't working for you. Did you download the examples that apply to the version of Flint you downloaded? Have you changed them at all, or are you running the code ...

I actually downloaded both, but only installed version 1.0.4 using the installer that came with the download. I haven’t changed any of the classes. Should I uninstall it and reinstall it? If ...

Should I uninstall it and reinstall it? If yes, how can I do this?

I know too many questions.
Thank you for your help.

Presumably you mean the mxp installer. Did you also do what it says in the read-me file about setting up the class-path?

Hi, Yes, I did set up the class-path, but besides this path there is another two paths, the default and one I created for my daily usage. Could this be a problem? Richard, I don't want to be ...

Richard, I don't want to be bothering you with this kind of problems, I know it is hard for you to have a diagnosis without actually seeing the files. I will try to figure this out by myself and let you know if I ever find the problem.

You can have as many class paths as you like, just don't define the same classes in the same packages in different class paths or only one of them will be found. You can install Flint simply by ...

I found the problem, it seems that I accidently deleted one of the default paths, the "." Should look like this . $(LocalData)/Actionscript 3.0/Classes WDC USB2:My Web Pages:My ...
