My swf’s play at the assigned frame rate on the stand alone player , but in my browser they play really slow. All my settings seem to be correct.
What could it be?

are you using a preloader?
because if you aren’t the movie is playing as it is loading…if you notice…after the movie has gone through once…if you hit “refresh” it will play at normal speed.
let us know if adding a preloader helps you.

looks fine to me?
by the way 50 fps is a bit high, IMO i would use 25-35 , to insure that slower computers can view the site without lag.
:::by the way nice looking site . Is that game playable where the preloader is??

Hey Thanx ,
The game is playable.You just have to click near the area to kinda activate the frame. I thought it would be good for people with dial up connections.
As far as my problem I think its just my pc.
