Awesome this worked, just made the decision to learn AS3 instead of AS2. I didnt exactly follow the tutorial, I instead made a barrett(sniper rifle) follow the mouse. Thanks!

This is awesome and I’ve been trying it with my own character. One question though- I’ve made one eye, duplicated it (both movie clips) and named them according to your tutorial. When I test movie, it doesn’t work. But when I downloaded your file, I noticed that the instance/library name of your eye movie clip isn’t named eye1_mc/eye2_mc and you only have one symbol called “Eye” and it still works despite that the actions specifically refer to eye1_mc/eye2_mc. So where are your eye1_mc/eye2_mcs? I’m unsure of where I went wrong.

Thanks!

Perhaps because it’s a flash website made in actionscript 2.0 !

Thank you for making this so easy even someone who has only opened flash twice can do this!

when I enter the code and change the eye1_mc to a different name to specify for a project I wish to try out, it gives me the following error

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at stationarydef_fla::MainTimeline/followCursor()

any clarification to what is happening and what could fix the error?
