Ever since I installed Flash CS4 on my computer, it runs fine for a while before becoming really slow to respond and a pain to use, so I have gone back to using Flash 8 which runs fine. Is this a problem with my computer or the program?
View 3 RepliesIs it possible to get computer name where the flash program is running? Not on the website, the swf will be run directly on the PC.
View 2 RepliesIs there any way to disable a computer's screensaver when a flash program is running?
It's for a program that I run locally (converted .swf to .exe).
The program is also used on other computers so changing stuff in the registry or something like that isn't really what I'm looking for.
I tryed changing mouseX but it's read-only..
I have a strange problem. When I run an exe projector that I exported from flash cs5.5, and on few of my client's computers it running very slow in full screen.When I running an swf file (not exe projector), also in full screen, it running well!I checked my clients computer hardware, and it match the system requirements of flash player.
View 3 RepliesI want to distribute an SWF file to be run on computers, not the internet.However, I want to be able to access the internet through a link controlled by a button.This used to work, now I get a security warning telling me I need to change the settings on my computer.For obvious reasons I don't want to make every person who runs the swf file to have to do that!Under Windows I can create an EXE file that does not create the security warning, but on the Mac that won't help.
View 2 RepliesI have a project for mobile where some of my animations scenes look as though they are winding up or playing in slow motion (from the start). They start out slow for about three seconds, as if they are winding up or in slow motion, and then they run at a normal pace. It only happens on specific animations and is consistent on different devices. Also, once I come back to the scene (revisit), the animations run normally from start to finish.
I have had some success in speeding up some animation by doing the following: In some scenes, the following would occurr: 1) a character was walking 2) the character grew in size though tweening 3) the background was animated as well ect. In other words, there were several things happening in the animation. In this example, I made it less complex by keeping the character the same size and making the background static. This helped alot. However, for the aforemation animations, I have tried everything (I am aware of) and nothing has helped. I'm not sure what to do next.
I'm looking into ways to squeeze performance out of a flash installation.The installation has a huge stage size, 2800px x 2100px, is on a high spec machine, but I'm experiencing low frame rates.I'm wondering what the optimal set up is for a machine running this? Would flash prefer it if the system was set to optimise for background processes etc?
View 2 Repliesis there a way to speed up flash movies playing when put up on the web. I created a web banner and uploaded it, when I open the website on the browser the flash movie pauses for a few minutes and does not play straight away. Is there any actionscript that will ensure the flash movie will play instantly when on the web? Is it the file size that is causeing the swf to run slower? Is it anything to do with the publish settings in the fla file?
View 4 RepliesI'm using Vista 64 on a more then adequate laptop, I initially used Flash CS4 and it was great for the past week but a few days ago it started geting really slow, whenever I copy, change frame, select something, basicaly any change action I have to wait about 5 seconds or more for a reaction. I'm using it for simple animation, no symbols, just 3 layers. I have a deadline coming up for my final production and if I can't fix this fast I'm screwed. I've tried every solution I can find, including trying Flash CS3 and Flash 8, nothing seems to fix the slow speed
View 8 RepliesI am having a problem with a flash source that I am editing: the Flash program moves very slow, it takes about 4-5 seconds to recognize that I have made a click or a selection. It is not all the time like this. When I open the source, it moves ok for a while but after a short time it becomes impossible to edit. When I try to make a selection, edit the library or even write a word in ActionScript, it takes 5 seconds to recognize that I am making this (during this period, the cursor turns to the loading state).
Have you had this problem ? What could cause this ? Could the flash source be damaged ? Or could this be caused by my computer ? I should mention that I do not have any problem at all with my other flash sources. One other thing that I should mention is that the flash source (a site that I am editing for a client) has about 14 mb in file size and the way that it is coded is not exactly efficient, far from it. Could this cause it ? One last thing to mention is that I have about 70 mb of free space on the drive on which I am running the Flash program from. The flash file is a Flash 8 format. I tried editing it using both Flash 8 and Flash CS3 but I have the same problem.
I am having a problem in Safari 4 on Mac running Flash Player 10. Really slow! I'm using some 3D features of Flash (3d rotation). The animation plays smoothly in all other browsers.
I've installed the latest updates to Flash player, and all the same.
I use Flash to develop a movie that runs when a user installs a new version of my companies software, and allows the user to access the user documentation and software installations at the click of a button. I use ActionScript to control the flow of the movie based on radio buttons that the user selects so that they are only provided with information relevant to them.I have been asked if Flash can determine whether a program is installed on the user's computer which can then be used to determine the flow of the movie.

I have found little to no flash to C++ documentation, let alone Flash to C++ over the internet. What I want to do: -Have flash send a string (or number) from a website to a server running a C++ program -The C++ program will receive the data and do something with it -After that, the C++ program would send back a response -Flash would then accept the response My goal is to make a simple MMO, but I can't start it without a server program to handle the players. I don't need a super-complicated example, just something simple, kinda secure and coded in AS3 and C++.
View 0 RepliesWhat is the fastest way for a Adobe AIR program program to index all images on a users' computer? Using Open Source ActionScript-3, MXML Libs and classes.
Fastest - Same pc configuration, different time (seconds) To index - get a list of absolute links (like c://bla-bla/file ) and save them into file (index.txt) All images (like JPEGs, PNGs)

testing live on internet is the problem, if the computer/connection is slow the global variable isn't grabbed. Like if flash sometimes loads first what has to go inside txtWelcome.text before grabbing the content inside Global.vars.username
Does the onEnterFrame Function() slow down the computer as opposed to other methods?

Just not sure whether I should use onEnterFrame so they are always accessable or to just call the function when I need it at that point in time. Big question is, is there much difference between the two methods?

i am building this site for my friend roddy and would like input on why it might be running slow. i know i have a bunch of videos at the bottom, but if i drop them out it still seems to run slow. i was just wondering if anyone might catch something i might be missing.
On Flash Kit there is a thread that is worrying me because I haven't used CS4 yet but by the sounds of things people are finding it run really slow when you use CS4 for animating or open a CS3 file that would normally run fast.
View 14 RepliesI am working with CS5 and I have bunch of movie clips on the stage and each movie clip contains a kinetic typography animation. When I click on each movie clip, the animation starts to play but the problem is that it runs really slow. I use a very detailed font (Sketch Rockwell) which might be the reason for this slowness. And the whole animation looks ugly because of this.
View 3 RepliesDetermine, whether a defined program is running (for example firefox.exe) If its running, then get the current dimensions of its window - i want to make a screenshot of the window, so i'd need other parameters too i guess: Is it minimized? is it behind some other window?

I have this code:
ActionScript Code:
for (var j:int = 0; j < 20; j++){
if (values==j){

it doesn't work for what are probably obvious reasons but I show it to give you an idea of what I'm trying to do which is change the name of the variables while the program is running.
my game running very slow in all the browsers but its OK as a standalone application.
