Have a local SWF but no FLA? Need to know the width, height, swf version, actionscript version or framerate?
You can use this tool to load in your SWF and find out everything you need to know.
It works with Flash Movies using ActionScript 2.0 or 3.0 and will tell you instantly all the information you need to know about your SWF.
swfVersion, actionScriptVersion, frameRate, width, height

This is v2 of Fairytale Fights and a more complete and extensive site than v1. It is AS3.0 and XML driven, and uses the GAIA framework. It supports 6 languages and uses video extensively. This game looks like it would be great fun to play and the artwork for the game is brilliant.

UPDATE 29/09/09: This technique is possibly no longer valid with the latest version of Papervision3D.
Here is a small example I put together quickly today to demonstrate how to drag in 3D using Papervision and the InteractiveUtils.getMapCoordAtPointDO3D function.
Since my last post on this in December last year, the Papervision getMapCoordAtPointDO3D method returned object’s x and y values seemed to have changed by a factor of 36.
UPDATE 29/09/09: This technique is possibly no longer valid with the latest version of Papervision3D.
private function _updateDrag(e:Event):void
{
// get the update position on the plane
var obj:Object = InteractiveUtils.getMapCoordAtPointDO3D(_selectedPlane,
_selectedPlane.container.mouseX,
_selectedPlane.container.mouseY)
// move the dragged plane to the new postion with the offset
_selectedPlane.x = _selectedPlane.x + obj.x * 36 - _drag_X_offset;
_selectedPlane.y = _selectedPlane.y - obj.y * 36 + _drag_Y_offset;
}

This site went live recently. It was a very quick build using the Gaia framework.
It is XML driven and AS3.0

Recently I had to transcribe some music for a funk cover band that I play in. Transcribing is much easier when you can loop a section of the track and listen to it over and over. This isn’t a feature that any of the media players on my computer have, so I figured I would build an Mp3 player that can do this.

The Transcription Tool enables you to load in a local mp3 file from your library, and then loop all or a selected part of the track. There is an HSlider component with 2 handles (sliders) so that you can choose whichever part of the tune you like.
This is a standalone desktop application based on Adobe® AIR™ Runtime

Let me know any feature requests for future versions.
