Error: Error #1023: å‘ç”Ÿå †æ ˆä¸Šæº¢ã€‚

@Glenn – This occurs when you have an infinite loop. Double check the recursive aspect of the Trunk class to make sure that _level and x are getting incremented.
I made the typo of “_level = 1;” (one, the number) instead of “_level = l;” (l, the letter) to get this same error.

bryanc, you had the code working from the tutorial? Mind sending me a zip file with the complete code? I can’t get it to work here. Thx in advance.

Hi,
Tried running your code and came up against this:
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method update through a reference with static type flash.display:Sprite.
The only thing I’ve changed is the following:
[as]
public function get children():String { return CHILDREN; }
public function get maxlevel():String { return MAXLEVEL; }
[/as]
To
[as]
public function get children():Number { return CHILDREN; }
public function get maxlevel():Number { return MAXLEVEL; }
[/as]
I’ve learned a lot from this tutorial but this is proving to be a real head-banger. Any help is appreciate!
Thanks,
James

I’m getting the same error 1061. Can’t seem to figure out the problem, since the method is defined and public? Any help on that?
(Great tut btw!)

Hi Matt, just been looking at your generative/fractal flash page. The Abstract Generative movie is beautiful! And it’s given me an idea for a project. Unfortunately the only info on it is
“abstraction turned up to 11.” Not sure if that’s intentional, but it would be great if you could give a bit more info on the methods/effects used. I can see you have some faded blurred photos. Is that glitchy effect caused by the scaling of the images? It’s great. Are there any fractal elements in there as well?
Best regards

Excelent tutorial, how could I start on aprogram that creates the Fractal version of an Image?, I’ve seen some but I have no idea on how to start.
thanks
