Subject: [Flashcoders] Access Flash8 MovieClip instance from Flash9 app
Hi everybody,
We have a lot of content that's created in Flash 8 (separate SWF files).
Each file is just an image with a color MovieClip (and instance name). Is
it possible to load the F8 content in a F9 application and to access the
color MovieClip?
The short answer is 'no', but it is possible by writing some AS2 proxy code
to load the flash 8 swf. The AS3 code can then communicate with the AS2
proxy (using a local connection) and get it to load and access the Flash 8
clips. It's possible but not as straightforward as doing it directly.
This might help:
