This DLL allows you to create .SWF Shockwave Flash movies with Game Maker.

(link removed)

Current features:

* Animating the movie using frames
* Draw text with custom .FDB font
* Make shapes with lines and bitmaps inside them
* Use your own movie size and frame rate
* Create a HTML file for testing
* Custom colors of background, text, and lines

This is just a first version, more functions like for sound will be added later.

No, it's not like g-flash.

[cdm319]

like matts PDF DLL, but with flash movies

[BrainWare]

Nice, to bad we still can't show swf's in gamemaker...

Anyways, Good work!

Cheers

[coolsmile]

Brilliant
Very great job, I was really looking forward for something like this

[CyberTwister]

This is very nice
Good work

We can. Xeption (i think) made a Dll for it a couple of years ago. It was made for version 4.x, but it does work of version 5 & 6.

[cdm319]

you could probably also configure GMovie to play flash movies in the window as well

Probably GM7 boosted moral.

Anyways, great work! If you make this enough we wont have to get that expensive Flash.

[guzu_ligo]

Very useful DLL.
What about adding action scripts. There seems to be no command for that.

[tdmgames]

sorry to be fussy but well over 1/2 the people on the gmc dont hav a .rar extracter... is it possible to make it into a .zip?

Thanks TDM Games

[CJ Master]

It doesn't seem to support sounds, which is a Huge --.

But overall it seems you did great work. What we need now is sounds and action scrip.

What else do you plan on adding?

Thanks for listening,

I'm planning to add more functions for making shape's like gradients.

[CJ Master]

Great!

Any chance of sounds?

[celebraces]

Wow, this is cool! It's not going to replace Adobe's Flash though.

PS: RAR is a standard. You should have it.

[softhunterdevil]

How does it work ?

Does it capture frames as bitmaps and use them to make a flash movie at a selected frame rate ?

Yes you can. Use the browser embed dll and just set it to embed a SWF

Ive been doing this for ages to use SWFs as cutscenes for my games

[Sindarin]

Are you going to update this anytime soon?

[buji_ryu]

this is cool, I may end up using this.

One thing you need to add is sound support though, unless there already is and I'm just not seeing it lol.

This is cool though, good work.

[h0bbel]

I'll update it, but I have many things to do currently.

[seel]

you could probably also configure GMovie to play flash movies in the window as well

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I doubt it, since flash uses vector based drawing. You'd have to make something of adobes document on the format.
Ofcourse you could, but it'd be better to make a separate one..

[raving_rabbid]

i have Sothink SWF Quicker (a flash making program). will i be able to work with this dll and sothink to make a flash file? that would be awsome. i will dl now.

[uuf6429]

Hmm, verry interesting h0bbel.

Here's an idea, people might put up a GM server which constructs SWF and allow people to play a sort of GM-made game online. Seems a bit hard to do though.

[n64gamer1205]

great dll!

[hanson]

The dll works great! Would it be hard for you to add .bmp support to the dll? that would be helpful in one of my projects.
Thanks,

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

why not just convert the bmp to a png?? that seems much less hastling.
P.S. what kinds of sound formats will this supporrt (if you know.)
P.S.S i'm not saying hurry, i'm just asking when. when will the next version come out? (maybe you should do the thing people do in thier sigatures. eg:
|||||||||||||||||||| 50%)

[Mossy_Rock_Returns]

This is awesome-- just what I needed for my current project.

Two questions:
1) How do you set the flood fill to just a color, and not a bitmap?
2) Will you be adding basic shapes like circles, squares, rounded rectangles, etc?

Thanks, and great job!

[dotoriton]

Nice, to bad we still can't show swf's in gamemaker...

i have an idea !
Convert it to .mpg or .wmv or .mp4

[zachman]

does this support sound? will it ever? If it did, I could seriously use this.

[iPacMan]

This is fantastic well done. Its been very well implemented, and it should help me a lot in the future.

[iPacMan]

When will you be adding sound to this? Also it took me a while to figure the example it came with. Make it a bit more concise, perhaps?

Sorry for double posting, complete mistake.

[Thermometer]

please add sound function!

[Caniac]

@h00bbel,


I LIKE THIS!!!

it is quite similar to G-Flash...

Maybe we could help eachother out...
to see G-Flash dev,
go to:
http://forums.g-java.com
then scroll down till you find a sub-4-um, labeled G-Flash.
We can exchande codes help etc...


MODS!
I AM NOT ADVERTISING!
I AM HELPING SOMONE!

[GameDevDan]

Is it possible to put actionscript to frames and change the publish version?

i know quite a bit of flash lite programming and wanted to make a program so that people could make mobile phone games! (i've been searching myself for years and can't find any)

[remoladen]

Haha I have flash 9.0 Pro anyways... so I have no need for this!

[alexw]

To add sound, just add an object that plays an sound when the swf file start playing.

[Chris94]

Looks very good! Are you planning on adding system interaction like controls/features (keyboard, mouse, etc.)? It would be nice if you could make the DLL do something like that, then Flash Game creators could be made in GM! Well, good job and good luck!

[mrsmes]

I have a .rar extractor if u would like one in a .zip file.

[WadeMcGillis]

hobbel, are you planning on continuing this? The DLL would be better if you could put ActionScript into it.

[pk.Master]

What!? There's a free .swf editor on GMC? Nooooooo..... If only I knew about this before spending a lot of money on the Adobe Flash!!! Oh well.

By the way, great job on the dll h0bble. It's pretty cool.

[lostdarkwolf]

i think hobbel completly forgot this dll's existance. he hasnt even replied to anything.

[Sirtopeia]

ZIP FILE PLZ!

[Caniac]

if you go to hobbels profile, it shows he hasn't been on in months, so he obviously doesn't care, or he fell off the face of the planet.
