Rayflex website

Sub SayHello Select Case DownloadStatus ' reaction to button push depends on Case "OK" ' how much data has been downloaded window.status = ActorXName & " is finished loading. Enjoy!" ActorX.MoveTo 300,300,0 ActorX.Show ActorX.Play "Blink" ActorX.Play "Wave" ActorX.Speak "\spd=150\\map=""\pit=130\Hell\pit=80\oh \pit=50\""=""Hello""\. \pit=120\Glad you could stop by." ActorX.Play "Acknowledge" ActorX.Speak "\pit=50\I am Max the dog." ActorX.Play "Blink" ActorX.MoveTo 100,100 ActorX.Play "Blink" ActorX.Speak "\pit=50\Please send Rayflex an e-mail, \pit=60\if you would like a custom character created for your project."
