Some are listed on the demo download page (http://buraks.com/asv/1.html), but the list is too big, as the demo doesn't even have any resource extraction features. Still the demo will help to get the 'feel' of ASV - the tabs, the preview window... In my biased opinion, ASV has the best AS decompiler (improved every day) and resource extraction and some bits of extras geared towards professional user. What's missing is direct FLA conversion (ASV makes use of JSAPI for that). Results depend on the input SWF, whether the FLA is directly created or created by JSAPI, as with any conversion process. You can send us a sample SWF, and we can send you back text output of ASV as a demonstration. Thanks Alias™ and flashsavvy for your nice words about ASV.

Buraks.com/ASV is the gold standard for SWF decompilers. it costs $$ but it is worth it. i have also tried Sothink but found it no where in league with Buraks.com/ASV. > > > > Here is a link for a review on ASV from last year: > > http://www.flashmagazine.com/945.htm > > > > > > Alias™ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Haven't used eltima, but I'd generally recommend ASV as being the best > > decompiler going. > > > > http://www.buraks.com/asv/ > > > > HTH, > > Alias _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
