I agree.

For someone who's down on Adam's work pretty consistantly you seem very keen to see more of it.

If you want to see some more Brackenwood sooner then complete l tlm. There are still five places left.

OK, the simple answer is that Flash cannot do it by itself. You need to use some kind of middleware.

The three methods I readily use are:

- Flash loadVariables makes a http request to a server side script (usually php, asp etc) that then queries the DB and responds to flash loadVariables object (via the onData handler)

- an XMLScoket connection is made and a request is sent via the socket. The server side socket application queires the DB and pushes the response back through the socket. (think of things like unity and electrotank servers)

- Flash remoting. By connecting flash to a remoting server you can create local remoting objects that allow you to invokoe server-side methods. The methods have facilities to query the DB or act as a query wrapper. The response usually managed vi an onReturn or onData handler.

All of these methods require server-side scripts or services... non of which I have time to get into in any great detail. Your best bet is to try and find out what you host server supports then use the appropriate tech... in any case, a php/http request solution is generally the easiest (and cheapest) option.

OK... the last post was in response to:

As far as getting the specific example working as a guestbook, following the tutoprial should be enough. Perhaps attempt to setup the guestbook then post a more specific problem. The sample/tutorial is a pretty simple one if your server already has support for mySQL (an mySQL editor such as phpMyAdmin - check with your host) and php.

Adam, Scottish has a point. Why don't you reach into your big ol' bag full of brackenwood movies and pull some out. Maybe put up a game or two. People are loosing faith in you man! Even though your an awsome regular poster and you're releasing sneak previews and screen shots, it's just not enough for us! Do more work! Quit your job at one of the best places to work and invest full time in brackenwood.

Yeesh. Really, Scottish

I think jem was being sarcastic.. :blink:

Anywho, I think we can all agree that we are ancious to see more of Adams work, such as the new movie and the long promised bitey castle v2 (im so excited about that one), but we can all also agree that Adam is working his arse off and he has not failed us yet. So I guess everyone just keep being patient and continue giving Adam support. YOU CAN DO IT MAN!! yay :D

What's funny is that you're complaining about not seeing stuff, Scottish, but I don't recall seeing any posts from you in "The Hunt" thread, where the reward is all the things you just asked for! :rolleyes:

Oh, and Jem, where can I order your book?

MMmmm... Sarcasmic Burst.... sounds erotic.... :fpbls:

Jemooky Im pretty sure most people could tell that you were being sarcastic without the [size=14]BIG ORANGE LETTERS![/size]. I thhought the "Jeesh, really Scottish" was enough.

EDIT: Sorry that was spam. ANyway, Scottish come on. Have you ever tried to make an animation or a game or anything? IT TAKES A LONG TIME. <_< Let Adam be.
