Flash publishing

Hi,

Now this might not be the right location for this question so please accept my apologies in advance if its not.

Problem

AS2 Code Base

The problem I have is that the code base I have is enormous and I'm upgrading from Flash 8 to CS5

The build process in Flash 8 is pretty straight forward and works albeit very slow.

Now that I've moved over to CS5, I'm getting compile time issues. The build process is either timing out, throwing build errors or just wont build.

Can anyone suggest an alternative as so I can build my very large AS2 framework in a more efficient way?

Or can anyone point me towards a CS5 publishing guide which will highlight specific coding/publishing rules to be followed?

What I'm looking for is a way that I can compile my AS2 library without compile time issues or it failing to build. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

if you were publishing for fp 6 without problem and now are publishing for more recent than fp 6, the most common errors are case issues (fp6 and less var1 was the same as Var1 and that's no longer true) and one other thing that slips my mind at the moment.

anyway, you should be able to post the compile errors and get more help.

I'm still publishing to fp6 from CS5.

Ive looked at using MTASK but that's not an option.

The final swf file is being used within a 3rd party player too. This player only supports fp6 publishing too so thats anther hurdle.
