I fired up Flash MX and sweet jesus, it's fast. At least it feels fast after using Flash CS3 for the past few weeks.(because I needed flash 8 or better to get the ads working)
Aaaaanyways. The only thing left for Bk5 Part 2 at this time is the music, ear movements, the credits, and finishing touches and whatnot. I gave Rajunen the timings so he's already working on the soundtrack as well. If things go as planned, you'll see part 2 on the Portal early next month. Maybe even earlier, who knows?
MOTTIS! A few questions for you good sir! First question is how did you make the bunnies invisible during scene 4? My guess is that it has to do with masks with a very low alpha setting? My second question is when do you think the soundtrack will be available for DL? You had some pretty sweet tracks in there. Thanks!
The cloacking effect is rather simple but still my personal favourite efffect in the movie. Make 2 backgrounds (i made the secondary a jpeg screenshot of the original) and use the ninja's layer as a mask for it. Then move the "secondary" background a little bit to the right and down and there ya go.
in Flash MX it kinda glitches up if there is more than 1 object in the masking layer, so I had to break the ninja into Fill on each frame. It was a lot of work, but worth it, imo.
Oh and as for the music, Rajunen has been trying to upload them to the audio portal but it's giving him crap about how the Mp3's are not valid or someting. I'm sure we'll see his response here soon so keep your eyes peeled.
For those who're interested, I uploaded the soundtrack to Megaupload since NG's audio portal keeps rejecting the tracks for some reason. It have no clue why it's doing it, it just tells me they're not valid.

I've always thought that the animation data itself, like the positioning of objects, tweening data and such, and even over thousands of frames shouldn't take too much diskspace compared to other stuff what's imported into the animation. If the fla has a lot of raw, uncompressed data like music tracks as wav's, it can easily swell into a huge file. When exporting it into swf, flash compresses all the data with the appropriate compression methods, so a 20 MB wav can easily be compressed into a 1 MB mp3 (or smaller if you want your sounds to sound like crap :( ).
Video's filesize however can be just about anything, depending on the chosen codec and the level of compression. In default flash probably exports it in the highest possible quality, which of course is very close to raw video data with little to no compression.
There's also a lot of useless data saved in the .fla, like temporary data so it can access certain things quicker, and the Undo's for example. It also saves the latest frame locations visited inside every movie clip and so on.
Thanks for responding to my review, and good luck man. (:
Thanks, no probs
Your complicated gibberish talk with Toast makes my brain hurt, dumb it down for us not so smart people
Don't worry, some of it is gibberish to me too. there's a lof of weird things in flash that make no sense.
Great movie BK5 Part 1, I cannot believe the ending! Snowball RIP! T_T
You should do an origin story for Snowball. What made him into the badass bunny he is today. Sure it probably won't have anything to do with the others but it could give us some insight on what he was before he became the super bunny killer
Hmm, maybe I dunno. I already have a pretty good idea for Bk6, but after that? Who knows.
quit bunny kill
I'm not very good
scenarios and not know
ps:I know my English is not good
more here about 3 years English course I get well
send me a tutorial
how to make a scenario and blood
because they are very nice
:D
Sounds good, looking forward to this :P
Thanks for the download link Rajunen. BK5's music was great, but I think BK4 had the best soundtrack. It's a tough choice though, but I may even lean on Bk2 or Bk3 because of the nostalgia. Though Bk2 wins hands-down on its opening theme.
ohh please i want bunnykill 5 part 2 for my birthday on monday pleasssse !!!!!!!!
Next monday? Ouch. Not gonna make it in time... sorry O_O
Hurray!
How much time do you need to add those?
I have no idea. I still don't know what I'm going to make for the cast/credits part. Like, visually. Before I start working on that though, I have my hands full with the other stuff, like the missing effects and ear movement.
"I draw a line with it, and nothing comes out. When I draw a circle with the brush, it fills the INSIDE of said circle, but the actual brushstroke disappears again."
I HATE THAT! It happens when a mc is reversed. i.e. if a symbol is in the library looking right, and you edit the mc on stage looking left, you'll get this effect
Another one I hate is drawing a straight line with smoothing, and the result looking like an ink blot
Oh wow, i didn't know that it was caused because the mc was reversed! Thanks!
You should make a episodie with zombies, demons and others paranormal stuff, that will be awesome! (of course WAY after this, because you are now working in BK5 and already have the idea for BK6)
I'm still kinda figuring out the idea I came up with for Bk6, as I'm not 100% sure I can make it work visually. Also, I'd like to point out that there are some other potential porojects between Bk5 and 6 I'm going to be working on.
You will bring Ruby back too?
Maybe. I need to figure out a way to make her looks work with the visuals of the theme of bk6 and such.
Confusing story you had there. Dust was possessed and Snowball died? Then again, the story is completely different every single Bunnykill episode. XD
Yup :)
For the credits, why don't you do like a side-scrolling panorama of the city and then have your characters as animated graffiti on the buildings? It could be really cool, and when you get to main characters you can have them battle on-screen in front of their graffiti paintings or something. Hope that idea helps!
Neat idea, but seems a bit too "busy" for my tastes. I like to keep things simple, yet cool. Like the main menu for Bk5.1 It's visually simple, yet I really like how it turned out.
