Flash File Decompiling

Good Day,
I have in the past developed two commercial applications with
Director 8.5. We would compile to DCR or DCX, and the Lingo code
could not be reverse engineered - which was a drop-dead critical
feature.
I know that versions of flash files prior to -9- can be
reverse-engineered and the ActionScript obtained.
I don't care about the score or any artwork in the SWF file -
however - I do care about any Actionscript I develop.
Compared to a DCR from Director 8.5 - how secure is a SWF
created in Flex?
Dependent on the answer, i'm thinking seriously of just
moving to Drupal, putting all logic on a server, and having flex
for a fancy front end with no brains.
Thanks in advance for your response.
Thank

  • Corrupted flash file?... decompiler?...

    Hi all
    I have made a backup on an external hard-drive of some flash
    files (.fla) I created on Flash MX2004.
    When I try to open one of them, Flash MX2004 simply shows
    this alert:
    "unable to open document: blabla.fla"
    No other explanation. I assume therefore that this file is
    somewhat corrupted.
    It is a long, complex flash movie, and I gringe at the idea
    of having to re-create it!
    What can I do to try to "un-corrput" the file, or at least
    discover what's wrong with it and why
    Flash is enable to open it?
    If all fails, what would be a good, free flash decompiler for
    Mac?

    Post the swf and I'll decompile it for you.

  • How to Edit a flash file

    Hi all,
    I have a flash file, which I took from my website and want to
    modify some of the contents and links in the flash file. I
    installed "Macromedia Flash 8" and open the flash file; after
    opening all I can see in the menu bar of my flash is "File, View,
    Debug and Control" and could not find any control or tool to edit
    the file and surprisingly rest of the other macromedia toolbar
    icons are disabled. I need to know from where to start - How to
    modify my flash file.
    Your help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    My Friend
    I think you need to check out some of the books, online
    tutorials, course etc pertaining to Flash. Build up your knowledge
    a little at a time and you will surprise yourself at what you can
    achieve, you would also probaby build your own web apps and not
    rely on templates.

  • Need Help To Extract Logo from Flash File .swf

    I have an attached Flash file that is in
    .swf format. There is a N64 logo within this file that I'm
    trying to extract as a
    .png with a transparent background. I've been able to open
    it in a program called
    Flash Decompiler Trillix and in the sub-menus it has the
    logo listed as a frame.
    This is about as far as I have gotten and I'm stuck. Perhaps
    someone else knows how to do this a little easier. I just need to
    find a way to extra the logo that already has a transparent
    background and save it in
    .png format.
    Any help here would be hot." ;)
    Logo Flash
    File .swf

    Hello,
    I ran into a similar problem a few months ago. I have the
    Sothink Flash Decompiler and what I did was turn the SWF back into
    a FLA. I then opened it in Flash and then exported what I wanted as
    a PNG image.
    Decompilers can extract the actual image whether it be jpeg,
    gif, png, etc. But when it's listed as a frame(as you mentioned
    above) then the method above is probably the best way to get it.
    Good luck

  • Modification needed in flash file

    i am a newbie flash designer. a client has asked me to make modifications in a flash file used on his website. i am
    currently working on the same and would appreciate your help. the client has given me 'about.swf' file which i decompiled
    using sothink decompiler 4.5 build 90120 to '~about original.fla'. the xml folder resides in the same folder as ~about
    original.fla. it contains about_us.xml.you can download these files at
    http://rapidshare.com/files/251775121/online_questions.zip
    the change the client wants is as follows - if you view 'about.swf' - when you click on 'key people', the details of 4 people
    are given - vivek lakhwara, arun goswami, haresh nayak and ss balaji. he wants 2 more peoples names and details to be added.
    this means adding 2 more names in the top menu (which displays the persons details on mouseover) which currently contains 4
    names and on mouseover their picture and details should appear similar to existing 4 persons
    i have given 'required changes.jpg' to further explain my query.
    please tell me if i have explained my problem properly or further clarifications are needed.

    It's highly unlikely anyone here is going to do the work for you, but here's something to start from.  You need to edit Sprite 145.  It does not involve any xml.  You will have to do some investigation of how the current people are done to figure out how to add in the two additional people and the buttons for them, but it appears to all be contained as static content in Sprite 145.

  • Is there a way to unpublish a flash file so that I can go back to working on it?

    Hello,
    I am submitting this to help a friend in her digital art class.
    Is there a way to unpublish a flash file so that I can go back to working on it? Sort of like going back to revisions in word and being able to start back at any of the revisions.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    If you're talking about having the FLA and you want to open it and revert back to some older version of the FLA, no you can't do that. Managing versions of FLAs is up to you.
    If you don't own the SWF then decompiling can be copyright infringement. If you do, it doesn't always work. There are many settings stripped from SWFs that FLAs have (graphics/audio compressed, etc).

  • Error while using Image component to display a child flash file

    Hi
    I'm using Xcelsius version 4.5. I used the "Image Component" to import a child flash file(.swf) into the parent flash file.
    I gave the path "D:\246024\Loblaw\Dashboard Docs\New Folder\trend input.swf" in the general tab of the image component.
    After exporting the .xlf into a flash file , it works fine in the system in which i created it. If i open the same flash file in any other system the parent file opens but the child flash file imported through the image component is not displayed.
    Please help me out in solving this issue
    Thanks
    Anitha

    yes, you will face the same problem as its still looking for the path of the swf.
    you need to have the SWF on specific location which is accessable by the Parent SWF
    usually web page or something which is accessable for all.
    good luck

  • Creation of flash file from Device Central failing

    Hi,
    I'm currently trying to create a new flash document from Device Central and the application is throwing the following error:
    Cannot create new document. The xfl template document is either missing or corrupted.
    I am also unable to test my flash files in Device Central via Test Movie.
    This function was working fine until a couple of days ago.
    Has anyone had any similar issues? I am running Master Collection CS5.5 for Mac.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    For anyone who has this problem in the future, I have managed to get it working again by doing a complete reinstall of Master Collection.

  • How do I use text to open two different flash files?

    Basically I want to use a flash file, which requires you to enter text and a button to click. If I typed in 'Movie 1' and clicked enter, it should take me to 'Animation 1.swf', if I typed in 'Animation 2' it should take me to 'Animation 2.swf'.
    I don't have the time to relearn flash completely even though I want to, I haven't used flash in about 3 years and really struggling to remember anything, hate being a novice
    Thank you so much

    Hi ,
    As Ned suggested you could use something like this -
    function startLoadingSwf()
    var mLoader:Loader = new Loader();
    var mRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(<name of the swf which you are picking up from the text field - text_field.txt>);
    mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onCompleteHandler);
    mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onProgressHandler);
    mLoader.load(mRequest);
    function onCompleteHandler(loadEvent:Event)
            addChild(loadEvent.currentTarget.content);
    function onProgressHandler(mProgress:ProgressEvent)
    var percent:Number = mProgress.bytesLoaded/mProgress.bytesTotal;
    trace(percent);
    startLoadingSwf();
    Hope that helps!

  • Problem with Flash file in IE

    Hello Everyone,
    I have a strange problem and I'm not sure exactly what it is.
    I have a 1.5 Joomla site with this module in it
    <object height="20" width="1035">
    <param name="movie" value="LEDDisplayTicker-1040.swf" />
    <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
    <param value="high" name="quality" />  <embed height="20" width="1035" wmode="transparent" src="LEDDisplayTicker-1040.swf"></embed>  </object>
    The site works fine in Chrome, FireFox and Safari but when it is viewed with IE I get an error and the page closes ( you have to surf through a few pages).
    I know it is the above module because if I turn it off, the site works fine in IE.
    The flash file imports and displays info from an XML file and the XML file reads from google finance.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Todd

  • How to use as3 in flash cs3 to add dynamic text from a text file into a flash file

    let me start out by saying today is my first day of scripting
    in flash.
    I have a text file text.txt
    it contains
    text1=hello world
    can someone please show me how to display this text in a
    flash file
    i have been searching for this for hours and there are
    solutions with flash mx and actionscript 2.0 but i would like to
    see how to do this in as3.
    just a simple frame that loads that file and displays it when
    you test run the program
    much apreciated
    RC

    I'm not up on AS3 yet, but many things are still similar. You
    need to use the LoadVars class to accomplish this, You can find
    information this in Flahs Help>Actionscript>Actionscript
    Language Reference>Actionscript classes.
    rem: the text.txt file and the text.fla file must be in the
    same directory.
    The code will look something like this:
