    Kitchen Animation - Too Laggy?

    I've animated a little kitchen scene, but I'm not sure if it's too laggy.

    http://www.swfup.com/file/24029 - 1
    http://www.swfup.com/file/24096 - 2
    http://www.swfup.com/file/24107 - 3

    They're a little different (Tried a few things to make it less laggy)

    Are they all too laggy?
    -And which one seems to be the best?

    It's slow because of the "multiplane" effect. Sometimes you have to give one thing up to make another thing better. Try making a bitmap of the background (including the view through the window) and panning that. Plus, you could use a faster 'fps' setting -- something like 48-60. You might even ask yourself if this pan shot is really necessary to what you have to communicate?

    I have made the cabinets (Because of the granite), and window into JPG files.
    The FPS is already at 50, so there is nothing to change there.

    Instead of upping the framerate to speed things up, try reducing the number of frames you have your tween cover.

    Something else... have you converted any of your graphics to symbols? What you have there shouldn't be a problem. Can you post the fla file so we can take a look at it?
