2) Acionscript

  • Insert a new layer above the snowflake layer and call it "A"
  • Open the ActionScript panel and enter this for frame1 of "A":

for (i=0;i<=15;i++) {
    duplicateMovieClip(flakeA_mc, "flakeA"+i, 6*i+0);
    duplicateMovieClip(flakeB_mc, "flakeB"+i, 6*i+1);
    duplicateMovieClip(flakeC_mc, "flakeC"+i, 6*i+2);
    duplicateMovieClip(flakeD_mc, "flakeD"+i, 6*i+3);
    duplicateMovieClip(flakeE_mc, "flakeE"+i, 6*i+4);
    duplicateMovieClip(flakeF_mc, "flakeF"+i, 6*i+5);
};

  • Click the instance of "flakeA_mc" and add this ActionScript:

onClipEvent (load) {
    change = Math.random()*2+1;
    scale = Math.random();
    randomposneg = Math.random();
    this._x = Math.random()*550;
    this._y = Math.random()*450;
    this._xscale = scale*85+15;
    this._yscale = scale*85+15;
    if (randomposneg<.5) {
        posneg = -1;
    } else {
        posneg = 1;
    }
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
    if (this._y>=450) {
        change = Math.random()*2+1;
        this._y = -60;
    } else {
        this._y = this._y+change*this._width*this._width/2500;
        this._rotation = this._rotation+posneg*change;
    }
}
 

  • Add this ActionScript onto every other instance of a flake
  • Return to the main stage and test! You're done!
