So I currently have an fla with ~34,000 frames. I wasn’t aware that Flash will not allow me to export over 16,000 frames. I need to export this file at exactly 30fps. (30fps on 16k frames = approximately 8 minutes 54 seconds).

Any ideas?

I read some other forums about using the loadMovie(x.swf) function.

I have absolutely nooooo clue what that is.

Mind giving me a detailed explanation? ☹  
(Assume I have no clue how to do it)

Thanks in advance.
