Category: Tutorials

Just a quick update at where I am with this website at the minute, As you all may know I have been at University the past few months and all the work involved with the assignments took up most of my time so I didn’t really have time to update this website with tutorials and posts.

Now I have broken up from University until sometime in September so I am looking to get some tutorials done and some posts written so I can get this website active again, I appreciate your patience with this and hope you will stick with me whilst I get some written.

I have a post which I am writing at the minute which should be ready for the early part of next week, this post is explaining The Differences With Each File Format In Photoshop so this can give some beginners a better understanding what the difference between a .PNG and a .JPG is I hope that some people will find this interesting and for the more advanced users the will probably some image types you didn’t know about.

I am also writing a tutorial which I should have ready in the next week or so, but you will have to wait and see what it is on when it is released, feel free to sign up to the RSS Feed so that when the posts are released you are the first to know.

Thank you all for your loyalty and understanding!

Yep as you can probably see in the navigation bar at the top of the screen I have integrated some forums into this website this is for many reasons:

• It offers help for the community if people who are new or learning Photoshop need it
• You can ask questions there and (when some members subscribe) hopefullly we can get a good strong community together to help people who need it
• When I am not around you can post your questions there and others will be able to help you
• Everyone can learn from others instead of just my tutorials

Hopefully this will take off and some of you reading this who need questions answering will sign up.

Beta

Whilst the Forums are in beta I will be around to answer any questions people post over there, and to aid in any problems you may be having with them.

If you find any Bugs or if you have any Suggestions don’t hesitata to contact me via the Contact Form in the navigation bar or email me at:

[email protected]

Let me know your thoughts on these forums and if you think they are a good idea and if you would regularly use them, and I will hopefully see some of you sign up and start asking questions.

Later This Week

Look for the new post later this week about the “Different File Format Types in Photoshop” alternatively sign up to the RSS Feed to be alerted when this is posted!

So for now head over to the forums now and get signing up:

Packt is pleased to announce Flash 10 Multiplayer Game Essentials,a complete end-to-end guide for creating fully featured multiplayer games. Written by Prashanth Hirematada, this book is a comprehensive guide packed with practical examples and insights into the fundamental knowledge for developing fully featured multiplayer games in Flash.

Adobe Flash is a multimedia platform used to add animation, video and interactivity to web pages. Flash is frequently used for advertisements and games. More recently, it has been positioned as a tool for Rich Internet Applications (RIAs). Flash manipulates vector and raster graphics to provide animation of text, drawings, and still images. It supports bidirectional streaming of audio and video, and it can capture user input via mouse, keyboard, microphone, and camera. Flash contains an Object-oriented language called ActionScript.

Flash 10 Multiplayer Game Essentials discusses the challenges encountered while developing a multiplayer game. The book starts with the essential ingredients to develop Flash games using Flash Builder 4 and AS3. This is followed by the basic Flash programming that is required in order to write any Flash game. Readers will learn to leverage the PulseUI framework with all the required screen management and understand the Pulse API model, a simple, yet powerful model for multiplayer gane development. The last section of the book illustrates four multiplayer game implementations of increasing complexity, namely, a simple turn-based TicTacToe, a multi-player Jigsaw, a card-based racing game and a complex space racing game.

The book is an easy-to-follow guide because of the excellent illustrations, working code samples and screen-shots provided in it. This makes it easy for beginner to intermediate Flash developers to understand game development, irrespective of their prior knowledge in networking and server-side programming.

Professional as well as amateur developers with an inclination to build synchronous multiplayer games with Flash will find this book a resourceful and interesting read. This book is out now and available from Packt. For more information, please visit: www.packtpub.com/flash-10-to-create-exciting-multiplayer-game-essentials/book
