the "_data.fla" file is in the "library/_system" directory. Your "_data.as" file will publish into that directory. Just publish "_data.fla" and the .as file will automatically be embedded.

What's in the _system folder (which is in the library folder)? That's where the _data.fla should be, and where LassieAS should be saving the _data.as file. The .as file is all the action script commands. All it is is text, no graphics or anything. Flash will publish those commands into a .swf. All you have to do is open the _data.fla file in Flash, select "publish" from the file menu, and it makes the data.swf.

It is so commfusing... But here's the funny thing... I don't have any .fla in "_system".......... maybe I accidentally deleted it in the past... But I can't find the .fla in the zip file too.

when i i saw your post, i download the zip file and it is definitely there, you have download the LassieAS v0.5 alpha from the main website? the downloads on the forum are first releases or for -*test*-('")ing, i believe the first glimps we got of lassieas didn't have the FLA files http://www.gmacwill.com/lassie/files/lassieas_win_v05a.zip that on def has the fla

YEEEEEEEESSSSS I figured it out at last!! I download the right zip now and it all works fine. THX EVERYBODY! Another question: when using the Inv. How can I define the Item member? how should I put the phase of the object that the player allready take? - How can I "delete" the object from the room?

with LASSIEas make your removable sprites as a SWF movie... have one frame as the image the next as a blank frame, in the object inspector you set phase to the frame you wish to show the image, then with TIMe's switch it to the next phase with the blank frame to turn the image off WAY easier than that Nige... just use the 'setSpriteDraw' TIMe to turn off the sprite display. No blank phases required! Un-drawing a sprite just neglects it from the document object model as if it wasn't there. As for setting an Inventory graphic (formerly the member): There is one inventory item "package" with all inventory images contained within it (library/_system/_inven.fla). Place inven graphics into it, one per frame of the movie. Label the flash frames the same as your inventory item ID's. An inventory item will automatically attempt to display a frame of the inven.swf movie matching its item ID.

:oops: yes of cause... soz noodle

Thanks ! - I think I will create my game with LassieAS after all, it is so simple! At first you said that we could change the font as well( to support Hebrew), how can I do that? And what about creating my own AS TIMe?

OK I found out how to do everything.... its all in the system folder. Another thing: for protecting the cast\background\sound\speechVoice\other stuff...How should I protect them?

There is no protection, but then LassieAS games are geared toward on-line game play where the user would not be downloading the assets anyway. If you want to make a "download and play" game, then you may be better off with Legacy (for protection's sake).

Ahh.. And what about putting the game assets in .swf's format: every swf will preform as another library like Director. Every first frame will be blank and the other frames will refere each one to each background and such... This idea can be done? If yes, how can I use it with backgrounds and sounds?

There are documents that were in the download that have instructions on how to do limited protection of the assets.

Ok I now know everything about lassieAS I read all the documents. P.S. - the reason of all this questions is not laziness, its becuase I didnt see the _resource folder with all the documents...
