Optimization Software
Hi all, I found, okay I read about a software called Optimaze. Itis a software to apparently optimize and shrink the file size of your SWF files.
Has anyone else heard about this or anyting like it, or have I just completely gone over the edge on this one.
Flash SWF Optimization?
I have a flash project and it is about 100% complete. My swf file is just under 1mb and I have a preloader, but was wondering if there is a way to optimize the swf file even further so it's smaller in size. Everything in my project is in my ibrary. Other than optimizing vector artwork I'm not sure how to optimize the flash project when it's all done before I ftp it.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Flash Optimization
hi there people, i know flash compress the files well enough. but i wondering if theres anything else you can do to reduce the size of a flash file.

Optimization For Flash
I was wondering. . .
Do you guys have any tips for making a flash movie run more smoothly on pretty much any machine (within the standard range). I know when I built a flash site it ran like crap on computers other than mine, but other flash sites that are far more complex run smoothy on just about any machine that I run it on. For instance sixtailer.com. Is it a difference of animating things in frames or making something move or animate using complex action scripting? I figure there is NO difference as the computer still has to render the effects just the same. However I could be wrong. So my question is, is there a way of optimizing flash so it runs really smoothly?
Does it have to do with animating using actionscript vs frames?
Does it have to do with the way a flash file is published?
Answers to these questions plus any tips that you could give me would be a of great help to me and possibly many others who are wondering about this same general concept.
Thanks a lot!

Optimization In Flash MX
I thought I'd write a quick tutorial before I go out with my new lady friend tonight.. I hope you guys like this.. This gives you information about how to optimize your code or your movies in Flash...
Great for those of you who want to know information about what certain shapes do and how many of them your computer can most likely handle..
Optimization in Flash MX
Curves
The number one killer for most flash movies would have to be the "curves" and everything dealing with them. When you have an object that has 100+ curves in them and you try to move a couple of these things around at the same time.. Things start to slow down in Flash.
Well Flash's easiest Optimization tool is included with it.. Modify - Optimization. While barely taking out any visual accuities of looking at that curve.. It can make a 100+ curved object to about 70 without losing it's original touch.. And that is a big difference when you have a dozen of these fthings flying around.
Alpha
The story is.. Alpha is slow... Many of you might think it's a great effect but when your movieclip has an alpha less than 100... it starts to eat up time and memory... But why you are wondering...
Well.. When a graphic has an alpha on it of say 75%.. If that color is green and you run over another object that's blue... Isn't the area that those 2 objects intersect at a different color now?
See how they intersect and make new colors? That takes alot of extra calculations to make those new colors show themselves... Not too grand now is it? hehe..
Text
The truth is.. text is slow.. Especcially when you do alot of things with text... It is incredibly slow. The amount of curves in a single letter.. And then having them in words.. or even sentences can really rack up.. And that isn't good.
You don't have to stay away from fonts or text.. But try and minimize the number of changes you do to them dynamically.. I'll guarantee it'll speed things up
Gradients
Gradients are beautiful... Aren't they? It seems like everything that's beautiful is bad.. *lmao*.. But it's true... Everything that is beautiful can be pretty much bad for optimization.. it doesn't matter which fill style you use with gradient.. There are alot of colors in it and this makes it bad.
Try to not use gradients whenever you can and just substitue it with some extra lines in the curve and extra filling.. You're movie speed will thank you alot
Math Calculations
Another truth with Flash is.. it's not a Math Program.. Of course it gives you all those lovely features for you to play with like sine and cosine and tangent and OoOoo... Goodies huh? Don't use them...
Memory is alot faster than your computers calculations especcially in Flash.. Use a look-up table to store all your cosine and sine datas.. And then just multiply it out like that... Look up tables can be created easily and can be doen as soon as the movie loads up. That way it's not performing caluclations while your movie is playing and it won't put any additional sizes onto your movie either.
PHP Code:
for(i=0; i<360; i++)
{
mycos[i] = Math.cos(i * (Math.PI / 180));
mysin[i] = Math.sin(i * (Math.PI / 180));
}
Now you can just call the mycos and mysin lookup tables and multply it that way... Makes your movie ALOT faster when you use look up tables instead of performing calculations outright during movie time. So always remember... Having 100+ variables is better than calculating things 100 times.
Since memory sdtandards are pretty much set at 64 megs and above.. 100+ variables is nothing to that.. hehe..
PC vs Mac's FPS
This is a chart that I found.. From Friends of Ed actually.. That displays the differences in framerates between a PC and a MAC... Now these are avrages and different framerates are expecting for different comps.. But kepe in mind.. Make the Mac Speed high.. The pc speed goes up to.. Gotta keep it fair..
PC - MAC
1 - 1
2 - 2
3 - 3
4 - 4
5 - 5
6 - 6
7 - 7
8 - 8
9 - 9
10 - 9
11 - 10
12 - 10
13 - 12
14 - 12
15 - 12
16:20 - 15
21:30 - 19
31:58 - 29
59:120 - 57
That concludes my first section on Optimization.. when I gte back form my date tonight.. I'll finish this off with actual MovieClips and their framerates when used in numbers. Helps out I swear.
Flash Optimization
I couldn't really find any good posts on how to optimize your flash site, project or whatever you re doing in flash. So i thought maybe you guys should post your best tips on optimal site structure when building a site, like loading external swfs, avoiding alpha and motion tween, smoother animations, faster loading times etc.
Just post your tips for better flashing!

Flash Optimization
Hi, I'm making a flash movie and was wondering if anyone has more flash optimization ideas. I'm using the default _sans font for MOST of my text on the movie, except for titles which I am using one font for everything. I have gone through and optimized all of my bitmap images to png/gif (loseless) I did this after I had added them into the movie (if that makes a difference). Right now I have a movie that is pushing 970K. Needless to say it is going to take a day and a half for anyone not on broadband to load this thing. Do I need to redrag my now optimized bitmaps back out to the stage or should they now be optimized anyways? I'm looking at a 10 scene roughly 500 frame movie here as well. It's for a flash class so it's understandable that it will be a little large. But any suggestions on make it a LITTLE smaller?

Flash Optimization Problems
OK firstly something about me,
Since realise of flash 4 I`ve been working with flash, and I realy love it. I`ve been, and I am, Flash Kit member since summer 2000, also have a lot`s of big and small project in flash, design, html, etc. though I realy think I`m at the begining of learning Flash in the big profesional way.
In that time working with flash, I always had few problems (bugs) with it,
The first of all that problems is the problem with small VECTOR graphic in flash, letters small Icons etc, how to optimize that?
The second big ishue is the optimization for diferent computer procesors, graphic cards etc.
Third the not to precise value of object positions inside flash scenes, like pixel are not the same in flash on scene and when you export the SWF.
__________________________________________________ _____________
That is just a few problems, but if you tell me your
experience in this field of flash design/developing I`d appepriciate
that.
Also it should be great if you chould post few problems ishues.
Thanks people!
Have a Great day!
Flash Engine Optimization
Hi,
I'd like to know once and for all whether longer variable names and longer variable target paths use more processing power than shorter ones.
It becomes an issue when you have onEnterFrame events with lots of code in them - game engines and the like.
For example, would the variable '_root.robot.arm.laser' take longer to access than the variable 'laser' defined as a global variable?
And in the interest of speed, should we use the variable 'lb' instead of 'laserBeam'?
[F8] Flash Memory Optimization
I need to optimize this code to make it less processor intensive...
it;s killing the application when it runs...
//"leaf" is a movieclip with 9 frames with different leaves each frame
//first frame of actual movieclip "leafMaker"
#include "mc_tween2.as"
fallDistance = 25;
fallSpeed = 3;
spawnRate = 1;
angleVariance = 45;
gravity = 45;
totalLeafTypes = 9;
var depth = 1;
var spawnNum = 0;
var spawnTotal = spawnRate;
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if((spawnNum++)!=spawnTotal)return;
spawnTotal+=spawnRate;
this._parent.attachMovie("leaf","leaf"+ this.depth , this.depth++)
this._parent["leaf"+ this.depth ].gotoAndStop(Math.round(Math.random()*totalLeafTyp es))
this._parent["leaf"+ this.depth ]._rotation = this._parent.leafMaker._rotation*Math.PI;
this._parent["leaf"+ this.depth ]._x = this._parent.leafMaker._x;
this._parent["leaf"+ this.depth ]._y = this._parent.leafMaker._y;
myRandomAmt = ((Math.round(Math.random()*angleVariance)) - (angleVariance/3));
myAngle = (this._parent.leafMaker._rotation + myRandomAmt) * Math.SQRT2/1.745329E-002;
myX = this._parent.leafMaker._x + (Math.cos(myAngle)*fallDistance);
myY =this._parent.leafMaker._y + (Math.sin(myAngle)*fallDistance);
this._parent["leaf"+ this.depth ].roundedBezierSlideTo( myX, myY-gravity,myX,myY+gravity,fallSpeed);
//this._parent["leaf"+ this.depth ].xSlideTo(myX,fallSpeed);
//this._parent["leaf"+ this.depth ].ySlideTo(myY,fallSpeed)
this._parent["leaf"+ this.depth ].alphaTo(0,fallSpeed)
};
Thanks..
Image Optimization For Flash?
Hi every1,
I'm creating a flash menu and I want to have a png as the background. I worked on the image at 300dpi in Photoshop. When I resize the image to 72dpi, the file is still huge. Can anyone tell me what would be the best optimization for this image? When I place an image it makes my final swf massive (1.5MB).
Can anyone point me in the right direction to a tutorial or site that has great tips on proper image optimization?
Any help/tips would be greatly appreciated.
Flash Optimization With JavaScript
I'm working with medium numbers of items (1000-4000), each with several properties (10-400).
At very small time intervals, the parameters of some items need to be modified. In order to do this, the whole data collection needs to be iterated over.
1. This objective could be achieved by a simple iteration in ActionScript.
2. Another way is by sending the data collection once to JavaScript, using the External Interface. Then, when needed, call a JavaScript function from Flash, let JavaScript iterate over the data collection, build a list with the items that need updating and return this list back into ActionScript so that only the needed items are iterated over and get modified.
Which of these methods do you guys think gets executed faster ?

Flash SEO Optimization Question
I have developed a website fully in Flash MX 2004, with the plan of directing people that i would network with to the my web site by word of mouth. I have since decided that it would be wise to optimize my site so that people could find it by google searching as well, so I see two routes to go: 1) develop a recipricol site with dreamweaver using html and create a gateway page that people can choose to enter the full flash version of the site or the normal non flash version. 2) somehow optimize my flash site through means that I have yet to figure out.
I am seeing obvious advantages to both options and leaning towards the dual site concept, but anything you can let me know about my options would be greatly appreciated!

Flash .flv And Video Optimization
I imported some flvs into a flash file, and the thing runs absolutely terribly when i test movie. Its runs better in the BROWSER. which is wierd.
on top of that, it still plays like crap. How do I get the video to work like this site:
http://www.greatpockets.com/index.php
I mean, the video is smooth, transitions great. What am I doing wrong?

I don't know, any help would be great.
Thanks

Video Optimization For Flash
I've built a short 3 second clip in AE that i want to include in the intro of my site. I've tried a number of different compression techniques but I still can't get it to look right when I publish the FLA. The clip either comes out extremely pixelated or it looks great but plays at half speed. If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it.
Thanks.

Flash Optimization Question
I'm using Flash MX, and I was wondering if I load up, say, a bitmap in my library, but don't actually end up using it in any of the animation, does it still take up space when compiled? Or is Flash smart enough to ignore these unused files when compiling the SWF?
Flash And Seach Engine Optimization
I have a client who wants his site put through one of those site optimization products like those offered at bcentral.com Since search engines cannot search a flash site for content how do all flash sites move up in the ranks in search engines? Has anyone dealt with this yet?
As always,
Thanks - Geniuses!
Search Engine Optimization And Flash
Lately, I've taken to steering my clients toward HTML or HTML/Flash hybrids because of the problems ranking Flash with the search engines...... I miss doing full Flash sites.
Does anyone know of any ENGINE FRIENDLY techniques to allow the SE to see what's in your content?
I noticed that back in Flash 4 the HTML generated by Flash actually had all the text used in the movie within the code. Flash no longer does this. Anybody know why? Seemed like a good idea....

Flash Vs. Processor Speed - Optimization
While developing Flash sites on this monster 1.4Mhz computer I am often very happy with the smooth of motions and how Flash renders everything so sweet; but later on when I check the same movie on an old Pentium 400ish, everything becomes crappy as the processor cannot cope with the motions.
I then load other heavy-motion websites on that rusty computer and to my shock they perform GREAT; soft motions and everything.
I am obviously doing something wrong, so I am checking with you Flash gurús if you know about any resource on the Internet I can read about Flash optimization techniques, not for downloading but for performance.
I would remain very very thankfull!

Flash Site Optimization - Newbie Needs Help
I have a flash site that is rather large in terms of frames. It's file size is around 500k. Here is the problem it loads very slow on some computers (i.e. older computers or computers with slow connections) but fast on newer computers with high speed connections. I have been racking my brain over this and have made little progress over the past two days. I'm wondering if I could get anyone to look at the site and tell me how they would optimize it. I'm thinking that I'll have to break it up into chunks that load seperatly from the main part of it. But please feel free to give suggestions! Thanks! Here is a link to the site:

Flash And Search Engine Optimization.
Does any one have any good tips on how to rank up in search engines? SEO's I've heard that having a html intro page is good and bad, along with that I've also heard that Auto-redirecting is a good way achieving some upward trends in rank. Or backward linking.
I'm using Flash 8 for flash and Dreamweaver for my html intro page. If anyone has any tips or could view my site and give some direction please let me know.

Flash - SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION
I went through many threads on net seeking for how to get a better search engine (such as Google) ranking for my sites. Does anybody know about a proper way how this can be done?
I found out many flash site use in a for METADATA in HTML such as "keyword" or "description" but that's it.
I was kind of confused reading how Google goes through the actual SWF files.
Thanks for help.

Flash/XML Menu/submenu Optimization Question
Hi all, first of all, I'm not sure if this is an ActionScript 2.0 or just regular ActionScript question, so I apologize in advance if I'm posting in the wrong forum.
Another couple of things that I should mention is that what I want to do is to be able to just update my XML file, so that I'll never have to touch my Flash file again. Also, I HAVE figured out a solution to my problem, but the solution requires me creating 3 different XML files, which I wasn't sure was optimal, or if that's even the "right" way of doing it. So I basically have 2 questions that are semi-related, and I'll separate them with a dashed line down below.
Okay, so I've taken a look at all the XML tutorials from this site, and I'm having a bit of problem figuring something out. I have a Flash file, which has a menu for my photo gallery: family, bw, vacations. In each of my photo gallery, I have a submenu for each photo. So, if "family" has 17 photos that I need to show, then I have a submenu of 17 items marked "01 02 03" etc. I hope you're with me so far.
So, in my XML file, this is what I THOUGHT I should do:
<family>
<id>
<number>01</number>
<title>blablabla</title>
<date>some date</date>
<info>some information</info>
<number>02</number>
<title>blablabla</title>
<date>some date</date>
<info>some information</info>
<number>03</number>
<title>blablabla</title>
<date>some date</date>
<info>some information</info>
</id>
</family>
<bw>
<id>
<number>01</number>
<title>blablabla</title>
<date>some date</date>
<info>some information</info>
<number>02</number>
<title>blablabla</title>
<date>some date</date>
<info>some information</info>
</id>
</bw>
<vacations>
<id>
<number>01</number>
<title>blablabla</title>
<date>some date</date>
<info>some information</info>
<number>02</number>
<title>blablabla</title>
<date>some date</date>
<info>some information</info>
<number>03</number>
<title>blablabla</title>
<date>some date</date>
<info>some information</info>
<number>04</number>
<title>blablabla</title>
<date>some date</date>
<info>some information</info>
</id>
</vacations>
Okay, so here's what I want to do:
When I press any of the buttons ("family", "bw", "vacations"), I want to be able to know how many total entries there are. In this case, in "family", there are 3. So, how can I get this "3" number through my Flash file? If I update it and there are then 20, I want to be able to get this number without having to touch the Flash file. What can I do to do this? I thought maybe by putting "id" tags in there, it might help for some reason. But maybe that's just redundant. Either way, I can't figure out how to do this.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I mentioned up above that I did figure out how to do this by separating each menu into its own XML file. This works fine, but I do have a minor question. Here's what I have written on the first frame of my Flash file:
familyContent = new XML();
familyContent.ignoreWhite = true;
familyContent.load("family.xml");
familyContent.onLoad = function(success) {
if(success) {
trace ("family loaded!");
}
}
bwContent = new XML();
bwContent.ignoreWhite = true;
bwContent.load("bw.xml");
bwContent.onLoad = function(success) {
if(success) {
trace ("bw loaded!");
}
}
vacationsContent = new XML();
vacationsContent.ignoreWhite = true;
vacationsContent.load("vacations.xml");
vacationsContent.onLoad = function(success) {
if(success) {
trace ("vacations loaded!");
}
}
So my questions for doing it this way are:
1. Is this the most efficient way of loading them, or is there a way to load them all at once that's better than this? It just seems so clunky to me to do it that way.
2. Is there a way to tell Flash to loop itself until the XML file IS loaded? If so, how?
3. Do you think I should put all these in the first frame? Or do you think that I should do it once they press the menu item? For instance, I wouldn't load the XML for "vacations" until the user presses the "vacations" button. If you think I should do this, does that mean that I should put the following code in the "vacations" button (I'm afraid of what would happen if the XML isn't loaded quick enough):
vacationsContent = new XML();
vacationsContent.ignoreWhite = true;
vacationsContent.load("vacations.xml");
vacationsContent.onLoad = function(success) {
if(success) {
trace ("vacations loaded!");
}
}
Sorry for the long post, I hope someone can help me out.
Flash Optimization - Shared Library Assets
Hello,
I would like to know how it works (in loading terms) a shared library asset... I think somebody who have been using this can give me a quick answer.
The thing, is to know how it works when you use loadMovie, from a movie which is using a shared asset... If the asset was not yet loaded, is the getBytesTotal computing this shared asset together? or may I have strange delays?
Once the asset is loaded, other movies can use it with no loading cost I guess...
Can anybody confirm that please?
We are in full production, and have not so much time for testing right now...
Thanks!
Topic: Flash's ActionScript - Expensive Operations And Optimization.
I am new to programming in Flash's ActionScript and have a question about the speed of Flash's operations.
I've written a 3D object renderer (to see if it could be done) and it works great! It's just really slow on objects with more than 150 verticies. I want to try to optimize my algorithms. Here are some of the intensive operations I do. I'm hoping someone could tell me where to focus.
1. Reading XML files of about 50 - 400k. -- does parsing take quite a lot of time?
2. Many 2D array operations. (especially matrix multiplication)
3. Creating of temporary variables (some are 2D arrays) happens quite often in recursive functions. Am I slowing Flash down with heavy allocation? Would it be better to have global variables used for swapping?
4. Heavy function calling.
5. Drawing many lines to the screen.
(I am using FlashMX)
Thanks for your help.
About Search Engine Optimization (html Loaded In Flash)
Hey all.
Bottomline is I'm redesigning my portfolio website that I haven't been updating for quite sometime. One reason is design and the other is search engine optimization; it used to be (and the current online version is) all flash but now I'm making a version using html and flash.
The only html page is the index one and it has almost all the text but the remaining is a flash movie hidden in a div that loads section swf's. Finally these section swf's use xml documents to gather data.
Since xml documents are not indexed by the engines, I thought maybe choosing rather html documents over the xml ones would be better but I still don't think these will be indexed by the engines because they are not directly linked in the main page. My question is, do you think they will be considered because they are used anyway and they exist in the relevant directory? What if I make a site map page and load it in a div in the main page? Do files loaded with, say AJAX get indexed?
Thanks in advance.

3D -> Software? -> Flash 5
Hello everyone,
I have a problem with Flash 5 and Cinema 4D.
I made a "little man" in Cinema 4D from Maxon and i cant realize
what to do to put him in my Flash project.
The "man" is made with effects 2D...looks like a cartoon but this Cinema 4D don't teach me how to export it so i can import in Flash.
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO DO THIS WITH CINEMA 4D?
Ps: 3D Max is too much for me and that's why i use C4D!
Other Flash Software?
Need a list of software that will help me make flash items like text etc? Not looking for cheap crap want really good software? Where can I find a list?

I would like people's opinion on which 3D software application they find the best to use with Flash. I learned Maxon's Cinema 4D, but I see a lot of people use 3D Studio Max or Swift 3D. Cinema 4D is pretty powerful for creating organic structures (which is what I do) - can anyone tell me how the others compare?
Thanks!

Best Flash Software
What do you think is the best overall Flash software? I'm looking for a good one, and I want to know what you think I should get.
Which 3D Software To Use For Flash?
Hi All who does 3D for Flash,
Just wanna know what is the preferred 3D software to use if I wanna incorporate them into Flash...
Do most people use Swift3D? 3D Max? Maya?
I have not yet tried Swift3D... how dynamic can it be? Can it do 2D Cartoon type of animation?
Would appreciate comments, and recommendations eh..
Thanks All!
Flash Software..
Hi, hope Im putting this in the right place.
I've asked a few people but nobody can help, but I was told some big brains hang out here (flatter flatter).
OK>>
I just bought Trendyflash, in the hope I might be able to make a cool webpage or two.
I've had a go, made stuff I like, and then came to publish it.
It's fine to publish to CD, with an exe.
But nothing happens when it is published to web.
I just get a little intro type animation of eight little squares.
I've been hunting around all day looking for an answer. Interestingly, I found some page someone else had made with Trendyflash, and again.. all I saw was the same silly little animation.
Makes me wonder if the problem is my browser? (IE6)
Im all up to date with the windows downloads, and I checked that I DO have flash player loaded (I even uninstalled and installed like they suggest).
Shockwave too.
My security is ticked to accept signed, safe active x.
(You see Ive been picking up all the possibilities!)
Microsoft VM is set to high. I dont know what it is or even if it is connected.
Any help?
Thanks
Emma
