I oringally wrote this in Flash 8, and ported to Flash 8.5. There is no reason it couldn't go back.

Is movieclip.scrollRect what I should be using? I tried this: var bg:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie("bg", "bg", 2); var y:Number = 0; _root.onEnterFrame = function():Void { bg.scrollRect = {x:0, y:y--, width:635, height:540}; } The movieclip "bg" contains only a jpg 635x540. The movement is pretty jumpy. Should I be using BitmapData instead? I'm a bit lost! I've been searching for code samples online for the past 2 hours and I haven't found anything useful. Does anyone have a useful link for parallax or tile-based games using Flash 8 features? Performance is the key issue here, since this is going for a very big and complex game and I want to optimize it as much as possible. Thanks a lot!
