Using SWFX With Flash5????

[tcolwell]

I recently purchased Wildform only to find out that I cannot import the files into flash 5. I know how to loadMovie, but this does not help with the movies I am working with. If thee is a fix or something out there that will resolve my issue, please let me know....thnks

There are two different kinds of effects that come with SWfx. The green highlighted ones are the Flash 4 effects and they take advantage of some of the more advanced capabilities that came with the release of Flash 4. These need to be used with the load movie command and can be loaded into a level, an empty movie clip, or a Smart Clip as you seem to have discovered.

The non-highlighted ones are the Flash 3 effects and can be imported directly into the Flash authoring environment. I like to import them into their own movie clip for maximum flexibility and control rather than importing them into the main timeline. There are about 70 of the Flash 3 effects and you can make your own quite easily, so you should be able to find one that will suit your needs.

If you have any more questions, let me know.

when you say "These need to be used with the load movie command and can be loaded into a level, an empty movie clip, or a Smart Clip" can you show exactly how to do i mean how to make empty clip or level and import the highlighted one into flash5 the reason i'm asking is that there is so many effects for flash4 and they r so cool.
thanks for the help

Sure, but since you want step-by-step instructions give me a little time to come up with something. I will try to make it happen today, but I can't guarantee it.

Take it easy

I wrote a big deal on how to use a smart clip to do things easily. see the part written by motoracer. The info is from R_Blank and my self. It's a great way to do things.

Also Mr. Rush wont lead you wrong, he's great so whatever he can give you will be good.
