Exporting SWF without fla.

I made a short animation, and I made an swf. Animate crashed while doing it. The problem is, since I made the animation with another fla (needed assets), and since I didn't save (dumb), I only have an SWF. Swivel won't work, because I used the camera feature. Will I have any luck, or will I have to recreate it?

Your only reasonable option at this stage will be some screen capture software - best would probably be something optimised for high frame rate game screen capture. Play your SWF full screen and record that at the same (or double) frame rate as your SWF.

 

You can also try to import the SWF back in Animate or decompile it, but I don't expect that to give you much flexibility.
