Hi, you might reach a point (at least I think a lot of us including me reached that point), in which the only hope to finish a project in time is using Mtasc and say flasc or flashdevelop (or some same kind of other tool). Switching might be easy or difficult, depending on your project (setup). For example do you use a lot of mx classes/components etc.
And it's not one or the other, you can setup your projects in a way which allows you to either open it up in the flash ide and compile it there, or open it up in the Flash IDE and compile it through Flasc(which uses mtasc), or you could compile it from flashdevelop (which uses mtasc as well), or through a batch file, etc,etc. Lot of options, there is bound to be one that fits your needs/workflow. greetz JC On 1/22/07, Andy Herrman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
It's the "hope that he/she will not screw up your movie at all" that I worry about. @Steven I work for a very large corporation, and they're pretty anal about what we do and don't use. I hear good things about MTASC, so I'd like to try and use it, but given where we are with the current projects we don't really have time to switch now, and even if we did it would probably be hard to get them to let me change it. It's in the back of my mind, and since the thing I'm starting on now is new I might be able to switch to it, but then we'd have some projects using it and some not using it, which they may not like. On that note, how hard is it to switch from a project that uses the Flash IDE to build everything (and includes a lot of stuff in the FLA) to something that uses MTASC? -Andy On 1/22/07, Rákos Attila <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > AH> The main reason I don't want to do that is that I won't have control > AH> of the 'brand.swf' versions.
