What's changed? PCH.games or Flash?

Just in the last week or two, I've started getting requests for additional storage from games.pch.com, objects.tremor.media and others. They never needed additional storage before & I wonder if it's someone faking the screen so they can put something on my computer that I don't want. I'm not doing anything different & have followed all instructions (deleting cookies, making sure I have the latest version, etc). Anyone else having this problem? Seems to me that if these site use only 1 to 5 KB, they don't need 100! 10 should be plenty.

Websites might occasionally want to store information, such as your high score from a game that runs in Flash Player or what products you have purchased, to your computer. In the Global Storage Settings panel (http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.htm l), you can control how much disk space websites can use to store information, or you can prohibit websites from storing any information at all. (If you prohibit websites from storing information, the website might or might not function as intended.)
Use this panel to specify the default storage settings for websites that you haven't yet visited. (To change settings for websites you have already visited, use the Website Storage Settings panel.) The following list explains the storage options:
If you don't want to let applications from any website save information on your computer, and you don't want to be asked again, select Never Ask Again. This action doesn't delete any information that is already stored. (To delete existing information, use the Delete options in the Website Storage Settings panel.)
If you want to decide on a case-by-case basis whether applications from a website can save information on your computer, move the slider to the far left (None). Each time an application wants to save information on your computer, you will be asked for more disk space.
If you want to let applications from any website save as much information on your computer as they need to, move the slider to the far right (Unlimited).
If you want to let applications from any website save information on your computer, but want to limit the amount of disk space they can use, move the slider to select 10 KB, 100 KB, 1 MB, or 10 MB. If an application needs more space than you have allotted, you will be asked for more disk space while the application is running.
(Flash Player 8 and later) If you do not want to let third-party content store information on your computer, deselect Allow Third-Party Content To Store Data On Your Computer.
When you visit a website, the address shown in the browser address bar is usually where most of the website is located. For example, if you visit a fictional website www.[hotel].com, most of the website is located at www.[hotel].com. Sometimes, websites combine content from different sources. For example, www.[hotel].com might display a reservations form in Flash that actually comes from [reservations.hotel].com. The content from the latter website is called third-party content.
Third-party content might try to store information on your computer. In the hotel reservations example, you might be willing to let [reservations.hotel].com store information on your computer, such as data about which hotels you prefer, so that you can make a hotel reservation. However, you might not be willing to let third-party content store information on your computer in other situations. For example, a car-rental company, www.[my-car-rental].com, might have a banner ad on www.[hotel].com, to track your website usage or to record your preferences.
To prohibit all third parties from storing information on your computer, deselect Allow Third-Party Content To Store Data On Your Computer. This option is available only with Flash Player 8 and later. Adobe recommends that you upgrade to the most recent version of Flash Player available.
(Flash Player 9.0.115.0 and later) If you do not want to store Flash components on your computer, deselect Store Common Flash Components To Reduce Download Times.
Flash Player lets you store common or shared SWF and FLV files and other components from different websites on your computer to significantly reduce download times and allow faster viewing. For example, www.[hotel].com and [reservations.hotel].com might both use the same Adobe components on their sites.
For an overview of issues related to storage, see What are storage settings? in the discussion of the Settings Manager.

One Flash CC project gets stuck when publishing in IOS. It will quickly publish as Android, and other projects will publish as IOS. Not sure what to change.

One Flash CC project gets stuck when publishing in IOS. It will quickly publish as Android, and other projects will publish as IOS. Not sure what to change.

Thanks for the info.
I've recently stumbled on an article on how to view the packaged file (apk) published using AIR 3.2 for Android setting (Adobe Flash CS6). All you need to do is change the extension of the file from (.apk) to (.rar) or (.zip) and extract the file as you would with any other zip or rar file. I was able to confirm that the packaged file (apk) indeed contain all the videos for the presentation. I have more than 80 videos in the presentation. All videos included in the package are of the same video format and resolution (FLV 320x240) but of different duration. I intentionally included the all the videos inside the package so I can use the presentation anywhere and anytime without the need to connect to the internet. The packaged apk file size is (1.23GB) the file includes the project's swf and xml file, the component swf and videos.
When installed to android I noticed that the package remained as an apk file. Not really sure if android temporarily unpacks it when you run the app.
Testing phase:
I see no problem when I'm testing the project on my desktop computer. But when packaged and installed on my device the problem arise.
Problem:
I'm able to install and run the app on my device but wont play some of the videos included in the package.
Was this due to the limited RAM or processor of my android device?
I wanted to distribute the presentation to friends so i was trying to package it for easy access and installation on their device.
Alternative Solution:
I installed a third party app called SWF player by BIT LABS. Copied all the files to my device (the project's swf and component swf with the videos). The project worked like a charm the player (SWF player) and was able to run the presentation as if it was running of my desktop. All buttons and videos working properly. Although the alternative solution worked for me I still wanted to package the presentation for easy access and distribution to friends.
Please help...Thanks in advance.

How to Make a Multi-Level Game in Flash 5

I'm wanting to know, "How to Make a Multi-Level game with
Flash 5"? EX: If I were to make a space game, where after reaching
a score of 2000 points, the game pauses and displays the text
"Stage 2", then continues or provides a button to make the game
continue starting on stage 2. Any help with this question is
grately appreciated.

First off.. Flash 5 is like.. Ancient. Dude. Seriously, thats
more than
3 versions ago, and there have been major major changes
since.
However, I'll give it a try..
First off, there has to be some kind of an event that kicks
it off. I
would build something into the score system that would
trigger this.
For example.
function updateScore():Void {
_root.stage.scoreboard.text = myNewScore;
if (myNewScore > 2000) {
jumpToNextLevel();
So, somewhere in your game a variable keeps the score.. if
your game
runs the updateScore function once in a while, if it hits
more than
2000, it triggers a new function called jumpToNextLevel.
In the jumpToNextLevel, you would have to do more functions
like
pauseTheGame(), and such..
In general.. break it down to small pieces of what you want
to do. Each
function would do a series of things.. Then when your going
though your
game, you call each function as needed.
Hope this helps

Building complex flash game in Flash Builder 4 - Workflow/Best Practices

I'm investigating switching to Flash Builder 4 for building a complex game that currently lives purely inside Flash CS4. CS4 is a pretty terrible source code editor and debugger. It's also quite unstable. Many crashes caused by bad behavior in the SWF will take out the entire IDE so are almost impossible to debug. And I've heard other horror stories. To be clear, for this project I'm not interested in the Flex API, just the IDE.
Surprisingly, it seems Flash Builder 4 isn't really set up for this type of development. I was hoping for an "Import FLA" option that would import my Document Class, set it as the main entry point, and figure out where other assets live and construct a new project. What is the best workflow for developing a project like this?
What I tried:
-Create a new Actionscript Project in the same directory where my CS4 lives
-Set the primary source file to match the original project's source file and location
-Set my main FLA as "export to SWC", and added "SWC PATH" to my flash builder 4 project.
-Compile and run.. received many errors due to references to stage instance. I changed these to GetChildByName("stagename"). Instead, should I declare them as members of the main class? (this would mimic what flash CS4 does).
-My project already streams in several external SWF's. I set these to "Export SWC" to get compile-time access to classes and varaibles. This works fine in cs4, the loaded SWF's behave as if they were in the native project. Is the same recommended with FB4?
-Should I also be setting the primary FLA as "export to swc"? If not, how do I reference it from flex, and how does flex know which fla it should construct the main stage with?
Problems:
-I'm getting a crash inside a class that is compiled in one of the external SWF's (with SWC). I cannot see source code for the stack inside this class at all. I CAN see member variables of the class, so symbol information exists. And I do see the stack with correct function names. I even see local variables and function parameters in the watch window! But no source. Is this a known bug, or "by design"? Is there a workaround? The class is compiled into the main project, but I still cannot see source. If FLEX doesn't support source level debugging of SWC's, then it's pretty useless to me. The project cannot live as a single SWF. It needs to be streaming and modular for performance and also work flow. I can see source just fine when debugging the exact same SWC/SWF through CS4.
-What is the expected workflow with artists/designers working on the project? Currently they just have access to all the latest source, and to test changes they run right through flash. Will they be required to license Flash Builder as well so they can test changes? Or should I be distributing the main "engine" as a SWF, and having it reference other SWF files that artists can work on? They they compile their SWF in CS4, and to test the game, they can load the SWF I distribute.
A whitepaper on this would be awesome, since I think a lot of folks are trying to go this direction. I spent a long time searching the web and there is quite a bit of confusion on this issue, and various hacks/tricks to make things work. Most of the information is stale from old releases (AS2!).
If a clean workflow I would happily adopt Flash Builder 4 as the new development tool for all the programmers. It's a really impressive IDE with solid performance, functional intellisense, a rich and configurable interface, a responsive debugger..I could go on and on. One request is shipping with "visual studio keyboard layout" for us C++ nerds.
Thanks very much for reading this novel!

Flash builder debugging is a go! Boy, I feel a bit stupid, you nailed the problem Jason - I didn't have "Permit Debugging set". I didn't catch it because debugging worked fine in CS4 because, well, CS4 doesn't obey this flag, even for externally loaded SWF files (I think as long as it has direct access to the SWC). Ugh.
I can now run my entire, multi SWF, complex project through FB with minimal changes. One question I do have:
In order to instantiate stage instances and call the constructor of the document class, I currently load the SWF file with LoaderContext. I'm not even exporting an SWC for the main FLA (though I may, to get better intellisense). Is this the correct way of doing it? Or should I be using , or some other method to pull it into flex? They seem to do the same thing.
The one awful part about this workflow is that since almost all of my code is currently tied to symbols, and lives in the SWF, any change i make to code must first be recompiled in CS4, then I have to switch back to FB. I'm going to over time restructure the whole code base to remove the dependency of having library symbols derive from my own custom classes. It's just a terrible work flow for both programmers and artists alike. CS5 will make this better, but still not great. Having a clean code base and abstracted away assets that hold no dependencies on the code seems like the way to go with flash. Realistically, in a complex project, artists/designers don't know how to correctly set up symbols to drive from classes anyway, it must be done by a programmer. This will allow for tighter error checking and less guess work. Any thoughts on this?
Would love to beta test CS5 FYI seeing as it solves some of these issues.

How are you launching the debug session from Flash Builder? Which SWF are you pointing to?
Here's what I did:
1) I imported your project (File > Import > General > Existing project...)
2) Create a launch configuration (Run > Debug Configuration) as a Web Application pointing to the FlexSwcBug project
3) In the launch config, under "URL or path to launch" I unchecked "use default" and selected the SWF you built (I assume from Flash Pro C:\Users\labuser\Documents\FLAs\FlexSwcBug\FlexSwcBugCopy\src\AdobeBugExample_M ain.swf)
4) Running that SWF, I get a warning "SWF Not Compiled for Debugging"
5) No problem here. I opened Flash Professional to re-publish the SWF with "Permit debugging" on
6) Back In Flash Builder, I re-ran my launch configuration and I hit the breakpoint just fine
It's possible that you launched the wrong SWF here. It looks like you setup DocumentClass as a runnable application. This creates a DocumentClass.swf in the bin-debug folder and by default, that's what Flash Builder will create a run config for. That's not the SWF you want.
In AdobeBugExample_Main.swc, I don't see where classCrashExternal is defined. I see that classCrashMainExample is the class and symbol name for the blue pentagon. Flash Builder reads the SWC fine for me. I'm able to get code hinting for both classes in the SWC.

What are changes between FP 10.0.42.34 and 10.0.45.2 that could cause AS2 code to run differently?

Hi, I am trying to debug a large Flash reading literacy application which is written in AS2. Everything works in 10.0.42.34. When our school customers upgrade to 10.0.45.2 they get blocked from proceeding with training.
The main movie has loaded an application to run a sequence of tutorial movieclips, driven by an xml input.
The application waits for each background plus movie to load and the plays the movie.
It then unloads the movie and background and proceeds to the next movie/background.
I am running the debugger in CS4 in both FP 10.42.34 and FP 10.0.45.2, the two [UnloadSWF] trace outputs happens in both, but the next step is missed. I am delving into the code right now, but I hope that there may be a hint in the changes made.
I see no errors or security sandbox issues in the trace output.
Can someone tell me what main changes there are in FP 10.0.45.2 that could cause AS2 code to run differently?
Currently we are going to tell our customers that they must downgrade Flash Player to keep their kids learning to read.
Thanks,
Sue W.

All these bug reports are probably describing same problem:
http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-3993
http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-4137
http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-4121
Not yet any word from Adobe that this is considered a bug worth fixing.
I would also like to add that the bug failing to load or run older AS1/2 swfs is present in both latest release version FP 10.0.45.2 and FP 10.1.51.95 (beta 3). So it does not look like it has been fixed with 10.1

Change Video Parameters with flash button

Hi can anyone tell me what code I would need to attch to my
button to change the adress of the video being played in my flash
video player.
Or can you tell me how i can create a playlist of videos and
use flash forward/ back buttons to skip between them.
So far i have a working player, i have found a way to change
videos by tweening, but that would take me forever to tween every
video in my playlist.
Thanks

Sure. Specically what I changed from what DW automatically
did is- delete the !DOCTYPE W3C line #1, Condensed the html tag to
simply <html>, moved title up under head, the "Content-Type"
bit under title, got rid of the "/" befor the ">" in that line,
eliminated the entire style section and replaced it with the body
tag, indented the "}" under the if line. Which one, or combination
of which did the trick, I don't know. Several of those things I
don't really comprehend. I was just trying to match what I knew
worked. And then on top of that, I had to publish in Flash7. There
is some kind of new way to do it in 8, called ExternalInterface
which made me dizzy when I read it. Here's the final working code:

Dynamic Fonts loading in CS4 vs CS3. What has changed?!

Hi there,
I've had BIG troubles loading dynamic fonts in CS4. Well I had a whole library written in AS3 for CS3 which works just fine. But the whole thing doesn't work anymore in CS4. The textfields are empty although the fonts are loaded and registered via Font.registerFont. So the loading process actually worked. But the text just doesn't appear anymore.
In CS3 it works, in CS4 id doesn't work, with exactly the same FLA and AS files.
The Font files were exported with CS3. Maybe there's the problem? There is another font-file I had to export with flex (due to the character limitations in the flash IDE), that actually does work(!)
So what has changed between CS3 and CS4? There must be some reason why things don't work anymore like they did before.
If someone is interested in the source... it's quite a lot just to get a font loaded.

just out of curiosity -- did you update all of the applications?

What is the iPad alternative to Flash Player?

What is the iPad alternative to Flash Player?

There are alternate browsers that redirect flash content to their servers, change it to stuff that works on iOS and send it to your device.
They mostly kind of work.
Look at skyfire, photon, iswifter, puffin.
Read some reviews and see if one will work for you.

So what's changed in the last 8 years?

Hello,
I used to be a Director developer, but due to a job change got away from Director in 2002. Now I'm thinking about getting back into it again.
What has changed with Director and Lingo in the last 8 years? If I dust off my memory banks, will I have a fairly easy time coming back up to speed, or is Director a completely different beast than it was in 2002?
Or should I just learn Flash and forget about Director altogether?
Thanks!

I've been using Director constantly for around 15 years. Prophesies of doom have been a recurrent feature in the last 5+ years, but its finally looking like they might be true. You would probably be better served by learning a different application, and Flash may be a good place to start - depending on your needs.

Are games from Pch games usually slow with firefox

even tho Java and flash are updated games running pretty slow on Pch.games site which is unusual for this PC.

Try running Firefox 4.0 Beta 7 in 32-bit mode (close Firefox, control-click the Firefox.app icon, select "Get Info", and then check the box, "Open in 32-bit mode"). This worked for another Mac user in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/765367 this other thread].

Can I change the HD for flash disks?

I would like to change my harddisk into flash memories. Can I do that?

Yes, you can upgrade an iMac to use an SSD. If you plan on doing it yourself use Google to see what others have done. The are lots of them out there. What model of iMac do you have and how old is it?
I've considered doing it myself but from what I've seen iMacs are not the easiest of units to work on.
If it is still under warranty you will void it.

What Apple app works for adobe flash player?

On christmas i bought my iPad 3G+wi fi, my first dissapoint was to play in internet adobe flash video in two sites www.tuparada.com and www.integridadysabiduria.org, appstore recommends some apps equivalent to adobe flash, i tried Skyfire ($4.95) but it doesn't work, and i lost my money because Skyfire said they can not refund because Apple doesn' has policy refund, anyway my core cuestión is : how can i play internet vídeos which request adobe flash player.?

I think Apple should probably have to take most seriously this problem, because this kind of video is high popular , besides retailers do not quote the warning that we will not be allowed to play this type of video

There is no guaranteed solution for the iPad as flash is not and probably never will be supported.
Apart from Skyfire there a browser apps such as iSwifter, Puffin and Photon which 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites.
