I need to reinstall FireFox/IE - I'm loading m4a/ogg via the audio element :

Looks good. Your server isn't set up for .ogg files though so no sound in Firefox.

How do I fix it? Do I need to set permissions on the files? I just exported and uploaded, didn't know I needed to change anything.

A catastrophic fail if you can't hear the sound!

You could test for the difference between angles of the line and the rocket being positive or negative, then have a sub event that interpolates in a positive or negative fashion.

I did try smoothing it with LERP(Dash.Angle,Rocket.Bullet.AngleOfMotion,5)

but lerp will only turn clockwise, so you'd need to filter into two sub events and test if the difference is positive or negative I think.

That would smooth out the turning. :)

Hmm, it could do with some finess, but here's a capx

Download

I made a few quick changes, some instance variables etc.

It marks the first dash and spawns the rocket there, it also deletes previous dashes once the rocket has exploded.

I think there's still a bug with lerping angles, as lerping the angle to make smoother curves causes it to spin wildly as it only works in a positive direction it seems.

Working on this - a friend recently started teaching the basics of reading music - so I thought I'd try create something to practice with.

Very basic at the moment (I need to add bass Clef to cover notes below C4), and add some lines in when they go off the stave, but it's mostly working.

Strange, webGL is on and the demo posted works fine. Very odd.

Just using Win 7 home Premium, Vanilla Chrome , no plugins.

I get the grey text, but on Chrome, everything else is a black background.

Are the images large?

Is there a link ? Also would be interesting to see some work in progress graphics.

Are you building it in modular sections? Can't really see a lot from what you posted.

Updated with some home-made 8-bit sounds and a new ship.

Also changed ratio and scale.

Thanks for checking, how was the resolution? Should I make it a bit shorter? I purposely designed it so it was scale independent - so I could make it 4:3, 2:6,4:4 etc and it'd still work, albeit be a lot tougher if the vertical dimensions are reduced!

Anyone check the video out? It shows what it will eventually look like.

Yeah, that's the webpage scrolling. It probably won't on fullscreen, it's 768 pixels high.
