Can Someone Help Decompile An SWF File Please?
Hey all,

I have an SWF file that I need decomplied so I can get some actionscript code out of it and find the URL path to 2 parts of it internally.

Would anyone be able to help me, it should be simple, I'm just not experienced with decompiling an SWF file, and I am on a Mac, the PC decompilers are more in-depth and allow more to be seen.

If anyone can help, please send a message here or IM me on yahoo messenger: aggro70 and I'll explain the 2 little details I need.

Thank you very much for any help that anyone can give me.

[F8] I Need To Know How To Decompile A .swf Without Paying

Decompile Nightmare
I am trying to help a friend with a project. Long story short--original developer's computer crashed, no backups. The only files left are .swfs on an executable CD-ROM. The exectuable can't be used online, it's just for the CD-ROM format, so at this point everything has been decompiled and corrected except this ONE FILE that is giving me fits.

I'm more of a designer than a programmer; my understanding of ActionScript is limited. I've been trying to figure this out using the 'Learning AS2.0 for Flash 8' book, but while I think I kind of understand the syntax I still can't figure out the problem.

I can't attach the decompiled file and the finished .swf (so you can see how it should work) to this post as a .zip because they're too big. If anyone is willing to take a look at them and at least give me some direction, they would have my undying gratitude, please respond and I'll send you the files. Thanks!

Can I Decompile Your Flash?
Hi, im a beginner of flash. I hate those codes to describe flash, but i like joining up those elements. I know I am strange and thus i cant learn valuable things in flash. So i "invent" a good method in flash learning. First I googled "decompiler" and download one of them which i think is good enough(http://www.sothink.com/product/flashdecompiler/index.htm)
. Then i decompiled some swf(on web) to see how they make it. Then I joined the elements up, the swf palyed well, I win. So, i retry and retry, things becomed no more difficult to me. I think my learning method was advanced until someone my friend told me: "stop do that, you've offended the flash author! " I dont quite understand her words but I couldnt continue my work. I only want to learn some flash, I dont want to offend anyone else. I dont know if my friend's suggestion is true? It's a pity I cant learn my flash with decompiler, I hope someone bigbody could give me some advice! Thank you!

Decompile One Of My Movies
Would anyone with a Flash decompiler be able to do me a favour?

I created a simple flash animation (currently visible on http://www.avoncrusade.co.uk) but I cannot find the original .fla. I'm working from home (with a bad cold) and can't find it. Nobody at the office seems to be able to help either.

I'm working on another little movie for a sister site to Avon Crusade and I could really use the animated logo from that swf, it will save me a heap of time!

Can anyone help?

Decompile A FlashPaAper
Does anyone know how to decompile de content of a FlashPaper SWF?

I dont mind about the FP interface itself but the content itself.

Tha thing is I have an old program form aking maps that has no export options, only printing. When i sent the maps to the simulated printer, FP mantains what this software sends to the printer as vectors which is very convenient.

So, is there any way to decompile or modify the content of a FP?

thanks in advance

New Decompile Protection For SWF Files
The developer ******* located at www.*******.com is getting ready to release the BETA version of Flash Encrypt. I have played with it myself and found it to be very usefull. There is some great information on there for Flash protection. Check it out. Thought it might be usefull to some of you looking to protect your work.

[F8] Challenge: Can You Figure Out How To Decompile This?
No, I'm not asking for you to decompile someone's Flash program for me. As you'll see at the site, it's nothing special ( just the word "flyyyyyyy" ). This is an attempt I've been developing at making a Flash SWF that is unable to be decompiled.

I'd like for anyone interested to try to decompile this and post here the code that is inside. It's only a couple lines but it should be able to prove whether or not you did find a way to decompile it.

I hope none of you can!

Prevent Decompile And Encrypt AS
Hi

Also, is there any method to encrypt the AS source code?

Thanks

Quite A Big Favour, Please Decompile Small Swf
Sorry to ask, but would anybody be able to decompile an old Flash file on a website I designed years ago, and ,of course, have lost the source for.

It's basically a small flash player which works with a cgi script to stream mp3s - I'm pretty sure it came from a tutorial site many moons ago.

Anyway I can't find anything about it online, so I am reduced to having to hack it apart to try and work out the script and how it interacts with the cgi, so i can make some small changes.

I work on a mac and as far as I can tell there is no real decompiling software available which will simply export the thing as a Fla file.

So I know it's a liberty, but please could somebody simply decompile it, export it as a fla, and mail it to me at felix (at) urbanimage.tv

Copyright enthusiasts should note urbanimage is credited as the builders. (Although no one in their right mind would want this delightful piece of antique code.)

This is the address :

HDD Failure Nightmare: Need To Decompile Files From Web
Hi there

A couple of months ago, I had a bit of a nightmare in that my harddrive failed, losing an entire year's work. I have so far managed to get by without having to pay the £1000 quoted for getting the data professionally retreived, but have come up with a problem today.

I created 2 swf files for the homepage of a client's new website. They have now decided they want some changes to these yet I no longer have the .fla file to make the changes.

Can anyone help me? Is there a decompiler I can use without having to spend a lot of money? Can some kind person perhaps do this for me?

Both files can be found at:

Preventing Decompile / Code Reading
Hey all,
I was just wondering if anyone knew of a good solution for encrypting AS3 files to prevent decompiling and code-reading...not for SWC files but for an SWF or rather the AS3 classes compiled therein. I really don't care if anyone gets the minimal graphics or even most of the scripts; but I'm worried about someone figuring out how to hack the database my SWF is tapping into by deducing what the variables it's sending are (as it is I obfuscate everything sent over the wire to make it not-human-readable).
I looked at Amayeta, but they don't seem to be up to AS3 yet. Any thoughts? You'd think encryption would be a built-in compile option already...
Cheers,
Josh

Flash Decompile/View Files?¿
Hi, Im doing research into VR Tours and I find that I learn quite a lot from seeing peoples code. In some webpages, I can right click and view the source and find the xml file(all the important code is in the xml file linked to the tour-most cases-)

But when the tour is fullscreen, I get no right click as its all Flash.

How can I access the files that make up a tour to see how its been done?
Do I need a decompiler? or what else?

If I need a decompiler, is there any freely available? If I can do it someonether way please let me know...
Here is an example of a link that Id like to be able to see what files make up this tour...

Can Some Kind Person Decompile A File For Me?
Hi all,
I was being unsafe and working off a server; server crashed and I lost the .fla .
Now changes need to be made before the end of today and I don't want to go through and rebuild the file. IT won't allow sothink on the machine and I can't go home to use my version.
So, if somebody could be kind enough to decompile one swf, I would be most grateful and name my first born after you.

you can email me at: shadetreepress (at) yahoo dot com

Complex Audio Issue..or Maybe Just Syntax Issue
what's up peoples. I'm building a new site for my studio and having some audio issues i can't explain very well, so here goes:

I've got an external .swf successfully loading into _level6 of my project with it's own audio. and from reading thse forums, i know that if i want to control the audio independently of other audio, i need to attach the sound object to a seperate movieclip, which i'm doing and I can control the audio just fine. However, when i click to load in a dynamic image into a dynamicly loaded movieClip, the volume button no longer works. Both the soundobject's mc and the dynamic mc's are being loaded into the nextHighestDepth() so i don't think one is kicking out the other. Here's what i've got:

Code to attach the soundObject when the section starts:

Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("soundstage6",this.getNextHighestDepth());
work_sound = new Sound(soundstage6);
work_sound.attachSound("myaudiofile");
work_sound.start(0, 999);
Code to control the volume:

Code:
this.testVol.onPress = function () {
this._parent.work_sound.setVolume(0);
}
Code that loads in my dynamic images:

Code:
this.testLoad.onPress = function () {
_root.attachMovie("infoClip", "infoClip", this.getNextHighestDepth(), {_alpha:0, _x:491.1, _y:193.9});
}
that testLoad button does severl other things when clicked, but when i comment out that particular line of code, the volume control button contines to work. I'm sure this has something to do with the fact that all of this is occuring on _level6 but i have no idea why or how to fix it!!!

Anybody have any ideas? Sorry for the long and complex explination!!

Mac Textinput Issue + New Player Fullscreen Issue
Please inform me if I am a total idiot,... but it appears that holding down backspace while in a TextInput on a mac will only delete one character rather than deleting chars as long as the button is held down. I have tried making the simplest project consisting of only a base sprite and a textinput, and it fails (i thought i may have been preventing the event from bubbling or something.) I tested the movie on PC and holding down backspace works fine. Is this a known issue? and so I just have to extend textInput?...

Also, it seems like when coming back from fullscreen in a swf embedded on a page causes some flickering of the swf content upon resizing the browser window, 3 people I know have also encountered this problem.

Thanks for any help,

Button Issue In Flash - Program Issue
all of a sudden when i create a button and place it on stage i cant click it to drag it, scale or whatever...instead when i hover over it it behaves as in a compiled swf file (cursor changes into a hand,...).
How can i change that to the way it was? Anyone had this problem before? It is becoming really irritating.

Level Issue Or Version Issue?
hi,

wondering if anyone knows why this movie here:

http://www.pixel360.com/dev/zoompan.html

works fine as it is, but when loaded into another movie, into an MC called 'blankmc1' it will drag, but not zoom?

Also when i try exporting it as AS 2 and Flash8 the zoom handle sticks to the top of the screen?

Help With Crash Issue/actionscript Issue
Hello all,
My name is Josh and I want to say thanks for even reading my post, I appreciate any help I can get. I am here at work trying to edit a flash intro I bought from templatemonster (no im not a newbie, but this is the one my boss really liked, so what he wants he gets). Im trying to edit it here and i first opened it in Flash 8 which is what i normally use. So, im editing it and usually after I edit a few things I would like to get a glimpse so i test the movie real quick. Well, everytime the "export movie" dialog box came up, it stops at about a little more than half way and the box goes away and NOTHING comes up. IT doesnt freeze, but my test movie doesnt show like something usually would. So i tried installing/uninstalling it to no avail. Finally my boss went out and purchased flash cs3 and we installed that. So im editing it again, and went to test movie, and this time it gets 3/4 way done and "flash has unexpectedly quit" etc etc. So im starting to think its something with the actionscripting maybe?? i dont know but im really frustrated and need some help here. And also, even if I tried to just plain export the movie to swf, crashes too!
Thanks everyone!

Flash 8 Pro Issue Interval Issue
Hey, I've been working on my site for a few weeks trying to get it all just right, and I'm making it import text, to text fields from external documents, I've been using loadVariablesNum() and createTextField() to post the text onto the flash document.


ActionScript Code:
//0x393c39;
       
this.createTextField("forum_box",this.getNextHighestDepth(),212,3,162,120);
forum_box.wordWrap = true;
forum_box.border = true;
loadVariablesNum ("forum_txt.php", 2);
function ftv() {
   if (_level2.forum_txt != undefined) {
      trace(_level2.forum_txt);
      forum_box.htmlText = _level2.forum_txt;
      clearInterval(ftt);
   }
}
var ftt:Number = setInterval(ftv, 100);

this function keeps looping, it is in a frame that is only called once, i tested this by placing a trace at the very begining , just to see if it would echo it to the output screen more than once, It seems my interval isn't stopped by clearInterval(). if anyone can see my issue here it would be greatly helpful.


Thanks

Issue With ' ' Not
How would I make this work?
Flash says I need a ' ; ' after the ' ! '
and if I add a '=' it asks for an opperhand.


onClipEvent(load){
Gospeed=0;
Goset=true;}
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
Gotimer+=1;
if(GoSet=true){
Gospeed+=1;
}else{
Gospeed-=1;}

if(Gotimer>=5000){
Goset!;
Gotimer=0;
}
}

Lag Issue...
ok, i have a button that is duplicated and filled in with titles from an xml file. the buttons are actually 20 frame mcs. when you move your mouse over them they play and send the other clips back to the second frame using a funtion. i use loops so it lags a little and i would like to get rid of it. i am new to action script so i may be overlooking a simple solution.

funtion that sends them back to 2:
---------------------------------------------------------
function clearall (except) {
i=0;
while (i < xml1.firstChild.childNodes.length+1)
{
if(xml1.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.title != null){
if(xml1.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.title != except.text){
text2=_root["button"+i].gotoAndStop(2);

}}
i ++;
}}
--------------------------
on mouse over funtion used on buttons:

on (rollOver) {
_root.clearall(this)
this.gotoAndPlay(3);
}
----------------------------
