If by dinosaur you mean you haven't done Facebook since the REST API was retired, transitioning to Graph isn't a big deal if you're not rolling your own but using one of the SDKs - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sdks/ or the AS3 SDK Sydney pointed to.
If you mean you're completely new to Facebook development it can be a huge pain, but you'll save at least a few days if you go into it ignoring all documentation Facebook provides other than the reference: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/ Google will find blog posts by people who give step by step instructions for registering your account as a developer, setting up an app, setting up a SDK and giving you source code of a functioning app to look at.

I didn't have a specific goal they wanted me to complete so that made it harder as well, but still. I did find some very good books specifically on flash games on facebook at amazon. regards H On 30-5-2012 18:17, Paul Steven wrote: > I am a bit of a dinosaur when it comes to facebook and have been asked to > turn a flash game into a facebook app. > > Before I make a decision on whether I can take on this job I wanted a quick > heads up on how complex a process is to do this? > > Thanks in advance. > > _______________________________________________ > Flashcoders mailing list > Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com > http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _ _ _ Erik Mattheis | Weber Shandwick P: (952) 346.6610 M: (612) 377.2272 _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
