** DO NOT USE THIS TUTORIAL IF YOU ARE USING FLASH CS3 OR ABOVE. YOU WILL RUN INTO PROBLEMS WITH PUTTING CODES INTO BUTTONS.

Don't have Flash? Download a free 30-day trial here: [link]

My first attempt at a tutorial... I'm not sure if I'm really fit to be a teacher.
A lot of you guys have been waiting for me to make this... happy now? I hope so, cause I spent quite a decent amount of time working on this. It'll get you started with Flash and you'll learn more as you play around with it. It's really simple and it should be an easy thing for a beginner to make... I hope.
P.S. You don't have to make a dating sim from what you learn from here. You could make a lot of things by just using buttons and frames.

EDIT: Stuff from the good ol' FAQ: [link]

11. I'm horrible with Flash. Your sim date tutorial was nice, but I still don't get it at all. Will you do a sim date collab with me?
No. I have a lot of other personal crap I need to work on.

12. I want to make a sim date with money, HP, days, and stats. Any tips?
I'm not going to explain any coding NOR make a tutorial about it, because I know that people are going to spam me about how they don't understand how it works and just the concept in general. That's why I dislike making tutorials. ANYWAYS, to answer your question, I just have to say look up Flash variable tutorials using Google. I don't know any sim date tutorials out there. Here's something to get you started with variables: [link]

13. I made a Flash! How do I post it up on deviantART?
FAQ #79: How do I submit Artwork, Flash Animations or Literature?

30. In your flash sim date tutorial, I followed all the steps correctly to make a text button option thing, but the "hit" doesn't work properly... I still have to mouse over the text to make it clickable. Am I doing something wrong?
Make sure that your text is static text, not dynamic text. Otherwise, does the box that you drew in the hit frame have fill in it?

ah ha! so awesome. x3 really detailed and all, I think it's a good tut. :3 hope people find it useful. I only recall using a few things here. Never did anything with Flash really. Other than a few buttons and skipping to frames. xD
