Hey all, im having a ton of troubles converting an as2 cms flash file to as3. Its a project that is causing a lot of troubles. I’ve learned mainly as2 so is getting frustrating. I would love any help or suggestions on the attempt i’ve made at converting it. If you are wondering why i am trying to do this… im doing some papervision stuff for my project and its only as3. thanks in advanced. There is a lot to do… so some pointers would be awesome.
