That's odd, but good to hear that not everyone is having problems. Maybe with some tweaking I may be able to avoid these crashes. Do you have any huge images in your project? I have a 1600x1200 jpeg image that represents the track. Maybe that has something to do with the crashes, since I don't

Hey, We have some enormous images, but we're chopping them up into 256px squares and tiling them with a scrolling engine, as the game would chug badly on lesser graphics cards throwing images of that size around. J Frederico Ferro Schuh wrote: That's odd, but good to hear that not everyone

Hey Frederico, I'm using 9 Alpha for a large game project, and the only problems I've had have been with my code. It seems just as stable as the Flash 8 IDE. There are a couple of things I'm not keen on though, and that's the inability to assign more than one MC to any one Class (which has

I really hope I'm missing something... Yes, you are missing the fact that this is just a technology preview. You should expect things to work unexpectedly, and you should report issues to Adobe, instead of ranting on a mailing list. If you need a production-ready AS3 editor, use FlexBuilder2.

If you find the speed of technology to be too fast for you, or you find Moore's law inconvenient, perhaps you should get a job working for the government or a bank (I think they're up to the Flash 6 player by now), or choose a different career path, like plumbing, carpentry or anything that

It's time to stop holding on to the past and live in the present. It's 2006. You've had four years to upgrade your OS (XP is built on 2000, after all). That's like 28 years for a dog. If you find the speed of technology to be too fast for you, or you find Moore's law inconvenient,

I use Win2000 when working - there is no reason to use XP for us. I can upgrade to XP whenever I choose, I just know I'll have fewer problems using Win2000, etc. I don't think its a wicked thing to use an older OS if a new one poses no serious benefits I would be required to rely on. On 7/6/06,

Stephen you're misreading the information on that link. MS still supports win2k they just don't sell NEW oem licences, that's a big difference. If and when they try to discontinue support, expect some serious legal reprecusions. They support it for good reason, if they don't do so (at least
