Eric, that's interesting feedback. For my part, I only used a fraction of
the functionality Zinc offers and had no issues at all.
I understand the version of Zinc I'm using (v2.5) is a recent release - out

Or you could create a SWF using MTASC or the Flash IDE, and replace the
variables after it is published like this guy does:
