  1. Thanks , In the info above , they mention a 'timestamp' . Is timestamp absolutely necessary . Here http://bencentra.com/canvas/canvas2.html He has an example without any timestamp . Is there a default value involved ?
  2. Actually , I am searching for Posts that contain 'requestAnimationFrame' . Just curious , why do people show code all on one line ? To me it is downright unpleasant , to have to copy/paste , then edit code into one statement per line . Or is there a way to unravel code into multilines , that I don't know about ? Thanks
  3. This may not be timely , but here is site of many .js metronomes , http://www.metronomebot.com/talking-metronome-in-four.html
  4. Hello & Thanks , Can someone aim me at a w3schools how to "requestAnimationFrame()" ? I can't seem to find one . Thanks
  5. Thanks Ingolme I see I have lots more work to do . Should keep me busy for a while . Thanks again .
  6. Hello & Thanks , I am having trouble with my phone version of BenghaziGame . My viewport : <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1"/> Also , I changed the camvas dimensions from this: <canvas id="canvas" width="800" height="550" style="background-color:#992D2D"></canvas> to this: <canvas id="canvas" width="360" height="400" style="background-color:#992D2D"></canvas> And it looks like I'll need to adjust a bunch of other stuff to make it visually acceptable . Running the program on desktop , it all runs fine . But running same code on phone , the collision detection doesn't work , and the prog runs very , very slow . I could use some recommendations on what can I tweak to improve phone I am running it on my Lumia 640 windows phone . http://liesandcowpies.com/ gives options to run on phone or desktop . Thanks
  7. Hello & Thanks , A javascript Tutorial for BenghaziGame : I just wanted to let you know that I have written a javascript tutorial for my BenghaziGame , and to thank all you folks on this Forum who have helped me to convert this game to javascript . Benghazi Game is a shoot 'em up political satire browser game . But instead of bullets , we throw cowpies at politicians when we see them lying . How do we know when they are lying ? When their noses turn into long carrot noses , they are lying . The Tutorial game begins here : http://liesandcowpies.com/javascript/BenghaziGame.00-TUTORIAL.html I have also posted the whole Tutorial for download here : http://liesandcowpies.com/javascript/BenghaziGame-TUTORIALS.zip My disclaimer: I am going to let w3schools.com do most of the heavy lifting , and use their GameTutorial resources to do the explaining on specific keywords . Here is a list of their web pages that we will be using: http://www.w3schools.com/games/ http://www.w3schools.com/games/game_canvas.asp http://www.w3schools.com/games/game_components.asp http://www.w3schools.com/games/game_controllers.asp http://www.w3schools.com/games/game_obstacles.asp http://www.w3schools.com/games/game_score.asp http://www.w3schools.com/games/game_images.asp http://www.w3schools.com/games/game_sound.asp and more as the need arises .

Hello & Thanks ; I am having trouble with my http://liesandcowpies.com/javascript/BenghaziGame.html Javascrtip and html are all one file : Prob: all buttons work fine, except for <button onmousedown="touchRightArrow" . the onmouseup="touchEndRight()" works fine . But I havent been able to figure out why <button onmousedown="touchRightArrow" isn't working . I need a new set of eyes to help me . I am happy to Post all code if necessary , but its 557 lines . <div id="canvasDiv" align="center" > <canvas id="canvas" width="800" height="550" style="background-color:#992D2D"></canvas> <br> <button onclick="myGameArea.pause()" ontouchstart="myGameArea.pause()" >Pause</button> <button onclick="myGameArea.play()" ontouchstart="myGameArea.play()" >Play</button> ___ <button onmousedown="touchLeftArrow()" onmouseup="touchEndLeft()" ontouchstart="touchLeftArrow()" ontouchend="touchEndLeft()">MoveLeft</button> _ <button onclick="touchUpArrow()" ontouchstart="touchUpArrow()">Throw</button> _ <button onmousedown="touchRightArrow" onmouseup="touchEndRight()" ontouchstart="touchRightArrow" ontouchend="touchEndRight()">MoveRight</button> ___ <button onclick="clearIt()" ontouchstart="clearIt()">Clear</button> <button onclick="quitIt()" ontouchstart="quitIt()">Quit</button> </div> // function touchRightArrow() { alert("function touchRightArrow() {"); thrower.directionX = 1; thrower.moveMe = true ; if (thrower.x > canvas.width -40) { thrower.moveMe = false ; } } // function touchEndRight() { //alert("function touchEndRight() {"); rightPressed = false ; thrower.moveMe = false ; drawThrower(); } //
  11. Hello ; I wrote a browser game in Enchant.js , where I did some collisions . It is contained in this .zip file : http://liesandcowpies.com/BenghaziGame/BenghaziGame-Demo/BenghaziGame.zip The file you are probable most interested is this one : BenghaziGameTest.js I stopped using enchantjs because they apparently stopped developing it . So I rewrote it in Phaser , here : http://liesandcowpies.com/testMe/vm-phaser/vm-vertical-collision-Web.html Didn't care for Phaser too much . It is so laaarge . So I rewrote it in Quick.js , here : http://liesandcowpies.com/quickjs/BenghaziGame.html Runs great , but the DOCs weren't very good . Then I thought 'why keep fiddling with all these languages . Since they are all based on javascript , why not just learn javascript .' So I am writing it in javascript here : http://liesandcowpies.com/javascript/BenghaziGame.html It is almost complete . Just having trouble with the 'MoveRight' button . The folks on this Forum are awesome !!! Anyways , take a look at enchant.js code : http://liesandcowpies.com/BenghaziGame/BenghaziGame-Demo/BenghaziGame.zip Happy Trails...
  12. Ah , working real well , Thanks Again Onwards ! http://liesandcowpies.com/javascript/BenghaziGame-09-Sound.html I am hoping to turn this into a Tutorial ...
  13. Hey dsonesuk , Thanks a lot ! I am studying it a bit .
  14. Thanks Folks , The code is for a computer game: http://liesandcowpies.com/javascript/BenghaziGame-starter-08-TCT-Collisions.html Here is the code to play sound: Here is line to play sound: and here is the 'playAudio function': Everytime there is a collision between a cowpie and a person , I need to play/replay that sound . So , I need to know 'how to replay sound from cache' , without any controls visible . Thanks
  15. Ooooh... , Thanks Newbie: In the mean time I discovered the format below : My question on that is ; Does the playThis file remain in memory ? Or does it get released after the audio.play(); ? If it remains in memory , how can I access it multiple times ? Thanks
  16. What I am passing into playAudio is this: And when I code the following , I get same error: Thanks
  17. Hello & Thanks , I am getting an error : Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token < on the line <audio src=playThis> in this code : Pls , what am I doing wrong ? Thanks
  18. Hello & Thanks , I am getting the following error: Whole code is here: I think it has to do with the placement of : truth01 = new TargetImages(); But I can't figure out where it should go . Thanks
  19. Oh , ok , I get it . function startGame() { canvas = document.getElementById("canvas"); // get the canvas ctx = canvas.getContext('2d'); // create canvas Context; ctx.drawImage(cowpieImg, 150, 150); ctx.drawImage(cowpieImg, 150, 200, 64, 64); } // EndOf function startGame() Thanks
  20. Thanks , Yes , I am having difficulty with the distinction between 1) cowpie the image (cowpie.png) 2) var cowpie = new Cowpie(); 3) var cowpies = [document.getElementById("cowpie")]; I haven't worked with multiple copies of an image , along with multiple copies of same definition . It looks like I need two arrays , one for multiple cowpie.png's and one for the definitions of each of the cowpie.png Is that correct ?
  21. Hello & Thanks , I am getting this error: Uncaught TypeError: Failed to execute 'drawImage' on 'CanvasRenderingContext2D': The provided value is not of type '(HTMLImageElement or HTMLVideoElement or HTMLCanvasElement or ImageBitmap)' on this line: ctx.drawImage(cowpies[i], cowpies[i].x, cowpies[i].y, cowpies[i].width, cowpies[i].height); I got no error msg from the 'onload' . Haven't figured out what I am doing wrong . Pls , take a look .
  22. Yes , Thanks , I am reading the Arrays Tutorial http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_arrays.asp now.
  23. Thanks , this line was problem : Cowpie.prototype.update = function() { then this one : var cowpie = new Cowpie(); I'll try to do better next time . A related question , I don't have much experience with arrays : Array defined like this : var cowpies = [document.getElementById("cowpie")]; I am getting a '174 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'idActive' of undefined' on this line : if (!cowpies.cowpie.idActive) {cowpies.pop(cowpie);}; in : if(e.keyCode == 87 || event.keyCode == 38) { // shoot W or upArrow // check cowpies array if idActive = false Delete item // 1st active cowpie already set up in function startGame() for (var i = cowpies.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) { cowpiesCount = i ; if (!cowpies[i].cowpie.idActive) {cowpies[i].pop(cowpie);}; alert("cowpies[i].cowpie.idActive = " + i + " "+ cowpies[i].cowpie.idActive ); } cowpie = new Cowpie; cowpies[i].cowpie.update; cowpies.push(cowpie); } I think I am messing up on the array syntax . Pls , what should it be ? Thanks
