Animate v27 Issue

Hello,

Yes, I know that Flash has been discontinued, but I still use it for personal reasons.

Until today, I was able to use Adobe Animate (v24) and export SWF files without any issues.However, today I installed the latest version, and this functionality no longer seems to work. Is this an intentional change, or could it be a bug?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi.

Flash is a very broad word I think.

Animate is actually still alive and has resumed development. It will be released in version 27. You can check the Prerelease forums for details.

SWF files are still supported for desktop or even for web if you use Ruffle or another alternative player.

And Animate has always been able to export SWF files. The same is true for the current 24 versions.

Try checking the Compiler Errors panel and, if there’s nothing in there, try publishing another FLA or copy and paste your current FLA content to another one.

Regards,
JC

There are no compiler errors, and everything works fine in version 24. However, with version 27, no SWF file is generated.

It looks like the SWF export process fails silently, without any error message or explanation.

I've already tried all the steps you suggested, but unfortunately, none of them worked.

Do you mean v27, which is in prerelease?

In any case, I can publish SWF in both v24.0.15 and v27 running on macOS Tahoe and in v24.0.10, running on Windows 11.
