Dim layeri As Integer
layeri = 1 'if you put 0 it will clear main swf'
Do Until layeri = 100 'loop to 100'
ShockWaveFlash1.LoadMovie layeri, ""
layeri = layeri + 1 'prepare for next loop'
Loop
14. How Do i Save My Project as a .EXE?

22. How do i make my form a Circle?
Code:
Declarations
Private Declare Function CreateEllipticRgn Lib "gdi32" (ByVal X1 As Long, ByVal Y1 As Long, ByVal X2 As Long, ByVal Y2 As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function SetWindowRgn Lib "user32" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal hRgn As Long, ByVal bRedraw As Long) As Long
Inside the form
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim lngRegion As Long
Dim lngReturn As Long
Dim lngFormWidth As Long
Dim lngFormHeight As Long
lngFormWidth = Me.Width / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX
lngFormHeight = Me.Height / Screen.TwipsPerPixelY
lngRegion = CreateEllipticRgn(0, 0, lngFormWidth, lngFormHeight)
lngReturn = SetWindowRgn(Me.hWnd, lngRegion, True)
End Sub
23. How do i make my form See-Through? (Transparent)
Code:
Declarations
Public Const GWL_EXSTYLE = (-20)
Public Const WS_EX_TRANSPARENT = &H20&
Public Const SWP_FRAMECHANGED = &H20
Public Const SWP_NOMOVE = &H2
Public Const SWP_NOSIZE = &H1
Public Const SWP_SHOWME = SWP_FRAMECHANGED Or _
SWP_NOMOVE Or SWP_NOSIZE
Public Const HWND_NOTOPMOST = -2
Declare Function SetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias "SetWindowLongA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long, ByVal dwNewLong As Long) As Long
Declare Function SetWindowPos Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Long, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long, ByVal cx As Long, ByVal cy As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long) As Long
Inside the form
SetWindowLong Me.hwnd, GWL_EXSTYLE, WS_EX_TRANSPARENT
SetWindowPos Me.hwnd, HWND_NOTOPMOST, 0&, 0&, 0&, 0&, SWP_SHOWME
24. How do i use Hot-Keys to Set a Variable or Enable a Timer?
Put this in your Declarations.
Code:
Private Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "user32" (ByVal vKey As Long) As Integer
Then put this in to set a variable
Code:
Private Sub GetAsyncKeyState(vbKeyT)
Call Shockwaveflash1.SetVariable("var", Value)
End Sub
For a timer put in the timers sub.
Code:
If GetAsyncKeyState(vbKeyT) Then
Timer1.Enabled = True
End Sub
25. How can i shorten certain Commands?
Say you had 5 lines of code saying.
Code:
Call ShockwaveFlash1.SetVariable("_root.gun.1", 1)
Call ShockwaveFlash1.SetVariable("_root.gun.2", 1)
Call ShockwaveFlash1.SetVariable("_root.gun.3", 1)
Call ShockwaveFlash1.SetVariable("_root.gun.4", 1)
Call ShockwaveFlash1.SetVariable("_root.gun.5", 1)
You could shorten this by doing this.
Code:
dim num as byte
num = 0
do until num = 5
Call ShockwaveFlash1.SetVariable("gun." & num, 1)
num = num + 1
loop
An alternative method,
Code:
for x = 0 to 5
Call ShockwaveFlash1.SetVariable("gun." & x, 1)
next x
Credits;
SnowFox- Alternative code.
MatthewThe2- For a couple of commands
Someone Else Who Ive Forgotten- Ditto
Epic Cat Garfield- For reminding me of shortening command code.
-And a snippet of his code.
