Hi list, Just a little story that most of you don;t care about, but might save someone time in the future.
PROBLEM: Old open source version of Screenweaver (not current haXe version) doesn't seem to work if you have player 9 installed. I mean neither your applications nor Screenweaver itself will open. I found out this after uninstalling Flash player [1] and reinstalling player 9 for IE (This version uses IE's ActiveX). My feeling is that SW is looking for the player in the wrong place (either phisically or in Windows registry). So I had to install legacy player 8 for IE [2] and i was up and running again. And yes, it was a good opportunity to start using haXe version; I *almost* achieve it. Had the haXe backend working and replicated the necessary bits of old SW AS2 API BUT this application loads other people's swfs compiled to player 7 that rely in old XML.mapID hack which you loose when compiling to player 8 (haXe version requires ExternalInterface). To sum up, i needed to keep using old SW. BTW, I have in my box latest SW installer and patches, and I'm wondering that they should be uploaded somewhere (ideally with SW' source code too). Screenweaver.org should be the right place, I know, but contacting Edwin seems not possible any more. Any ideas? Cheers!
