Is it possible to create/use third party utils to read the memory of Flash applications targeted for Flash Player 9 and later and thus making it possible to cheat in some Flash games?
View 6 RepliesI am writing a process where users will need to select a file that far exceeds their availble RAM and have that file broken up into small chunks (for upload). I'm able to create a File reference to said file, but when I try to pass it to the fileStream, it appears to try to read the thing into memory before acting on it. Is there a way to get fileStream to just take the reference to the file and then utilize readBytes the way it's documented? it's called when the user selects the File in the browser dialogue.

View 1 RepliesI want to have the parent of my class handle the event first, then I want to have the child handle the event. Is there a way to explicitly bubble the event up? I want to do something like this:
...
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, characterClicked);

private function characterClicked(e:Event):void{
// pass event to parent to be handled first
...
}
Is this possible, and if so how?

I wrote an application in flash AS3, and when I trace from flash the total memory usage of the total application is only about 9MB, But at the same time Task Manager Shows the memory usage as 110MB. Around 100MB difference.Flash Trace Method System.totalMemory difference of the Trace from the Beginning of the application to end of the application.
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to override/replace a method of a class in AS3? When I say "replace", I don't mean subclass it and override it. I mean I literally want to replace the existing method with my own. For instance, AS3 has the built-in HTMLLoader class which has a load method. I want to say, in essence:
HTMLLoader.load = function() { trace("Overridden"); };
Therefore, when *anybody* makes a new HTMLLoader object and calls the load method, it will call my method instead.
I've tried a couple things, and so far I've gotten this far:
HTMLLoader.prototype.load = function() { trace("Overridden") };
And I compile it with -as3=false -es=true -strict=false. The problem is it doesn't override the already-existing load method. It looks in the class first before looking in the prototype, thus making it not work. There must be a way. Even if I can't override it, can I proxy it like a decorator in Python or a macro in LISP? (So mine gets called then it gets called.)
we would like to purchase Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 to solve the following problem
1.Broadcast network internet lectures on a paid subscription,with the possibility user authentication.
2. Broadcast video and audio.
3. Broadcasting from several sources (1 camera, 2 camera, TV tuner, etc.)within a single stream with the possibility of the user to choose the viewing source, other sources at this time, you can view the preview.
4. The intended audience for 10 000 users and more. 5. Estimated flow rate of 1 megabit per second.
1. Is it possible for broadcasters to use a single server, or they need more? What configuration? 2. Does Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 multicast? 3. How to make the system user authorization? Additional software, plug-ins? 4. How many users can simultaneously connect to the broadcast Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 and how we calculate the bandwidth and outbound traffic?

View 1 Repliesi've a problem with my setFocus. i will use [n] to identfy the line in the code. this is a MouseEvent.CLICK - function from an other dynamic,non-selectable textfield. the textfield in work is one with an embeded font and some text in it.if i use line [3], i'll get the no blinking courser and no possibility to enter some words. also if i mark some other and click after that in the input-textfield directly there will no courser anymore.but this only happens in the first time using the swf. if i first click into the input-textfield, then set the focus to something else and trying the steps i wrote over here, everything works fine.

I have an FPS monitor running and notice that I am getting choppiness here and there, bringing my game from 40 to 27 fps and back and forth at certain stages. I have an idea of where it is happening, but do not know for sure. I looked up quite a few memory monitors but haven't found anything decent yet. Is there a memory monitor that allows you to see the memory leaked and find its location? If not, how about just he memory leaked?

I'm having trouble with building iOS applications in flash. I just bought an iPad and want to start building apps for it. I hav done simple apps for iPhone before but nothing too fancy. The problem is, I can build it and compile it fine but when I try to install on my device it comes up with the error saying:
"ITunes: 'APPNAME' failed to install." I can compile it as an iPhone app and it works fine. I'm pretty sure I've got my provisioning right because I have both my iPhone and iPad devices added. Anyone got any ideas of why my apps only work while I compile them as iPhone apps?

View 2 RepliesWhen I'm making projects with Flex (or Flash Builer) the end result usually performs much better than a similar level project made with the Flash authoring tool. I know Flash IDE is rather for animations and design heavy works so you can't really compare these 2 tools, but this question is bugging me for a long time.If apps made with Flex (or Flash Builder) are really faster and less CPU intensive - why is that?
