I have created a game in Flash CS3 which is being published for Flash 8 AS2. My client is reporting it crashing periodically on his XP PC. I have also managed replicate this on my Vista Ultimate PC with the following error:
"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available" It took me over 40 minutes of continuous play to get the crash. This game is for an exhibition on Monday so I need to sort this pretty quickly. Can anyone suggest any ways to try and pinpoint the problem? The game is being run as a projector packaged with MDM Zinc. My first thoughts were that it was due to Zinc being pants but the same problem occurs with just a plain old Flash projector. The problem also happens in the Flash IDE, and similarly it just crashes Flash completely - there is no message saying a script is causing the movie problems. I am struggling to work out how to find the cause of the problem especially as it can happen pretty much immediately according to the client or after a long period of play. The game is basically a top down flying game with a scrolling background (JPG 5120 X 4320). The flash movie is published at 1600 x 1200 30 FPS. It includes an embedded FLV video on the Splash screen which is apparently 639kb of video data. There are no audio files in the game. Any suggestions what code issues could be causing this or does it sound like something else causing the crash. Are there any tools that can help me track down the problem? Hoping someone can save the day! Thanks Paul _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
