Hey there,
The new company site is done, more or less, having already missed the may1reboot we are struggling to get things ready quickly.
One of the main problems was I found the site to be very heavy on the cpu. The site is at 60fps. Which to me is just common practice. The site runs perfectly when i run it locally (on my computer in swf previews) however when i preview it in the browser, it runs significantly slower than it should.
I found myself trying to correct it by “upping” the fps to 95 to make it run like it should on my computer. I hear you saying 95fps is rediculous, which it is, BUT it the fps doesnt reflect the way the movie plays in the browser.
I have never before had this problem with flash online before. Has anyone else come accross this problem, of having a slower frame rate once viewed in browser, even if the move is properly preloaded?
Any help appreciated.
p.s i am reluctant to post the test site as the company hasnt officially launched yet (the transition from freelance, to Ltd) and the site isnt 100% complete.

60fps! That is ridiculous in my opinion. I never do anything over 35fps.

well yup imagine you have a loop that loops 30 times for each onEnterFrame, at 60fps it has to do 1800 times your action - which is imo ridiculous… Try lower frame rate anywhere between 24 fps and 35 fps - and check if there aren’t too many loops/ or massive onEnterframe functions
