how many scenes is too many??

[mister chunk]

You see.... i have this movie which has many scenes ( 52 to be exact). and when published will only run to a certain point, As soon as delete any scenes in the middle of the movie, the SWF will run the same amount of scenes further on before stopping. I have got down to 30 scenes before it will run the whole length.

Now, surely flash does not have a limit on the amount of scenes??

has anyone else had this problem?? as short of re-animating the whole job... i am totally stuck.

any help will be great.

What's more important is the number of frames total. 16,000 at the most. Are you exceeding that?

[mister chunk]

OK great... now i'm getting somewhere. Thanks for your reply, i'm just checking through and maybe this IS the reason. I have lots of frames 'hungover from the end of each scene, that due to a script.. never get played. Kind of redundant and now being deleted.

let's hope this work... i'll let you know. And thanks again.

Yep, that sorted it. Thanks for the prompt reply, i can now have an hours sleep before sending the job off to the client. Nothing like a last minute deadline.

I am amazed however that a supposed "top" piece of software has such a fundamental flaw. Granted 16,000 is a whole lot of frames, but all i am doing is an interactive presentation. Just happens to be a long one.

thanks again for the INVALUABLE help.

NP! When should I expect the check?

[mister chunk]

or was it the GET, or maybe even SEND.

ta very much.

Finally... Someone with a sense of humor!

Then I suppose I should GET it, if you SEND it in the POST!

Doesn't sound like you'll GET your POST URL-y in this case.

[mister chunk]

You see..... the tax man keeps saying something about POST and SEND too!!

I simply tell him that there is a variable unaccounted for, and that he should goTo, a label called '_hell'..

strange how he DIDN"T think i had a sense of humour.

silly man, eh!
