It took 9 Beta versions, 6 Release Candidates and a little more than a year to get it all ready, but now you can download the final version. http://www.flashmagazine.com/news/detail/swfobject_2.2/ Today, the SWFObject library got a major update that will probably be what ships with the final version of Flash Builder as well. The new release has several nice features, fixes known bugs and also takes some steps to clean things up code-wise: http://www.flashmagazine.com/tutorials/detail/setting_up_subversion_with_adobe_flash_builder_4/ This tutorial will show you how to setup Subversion (SVN) with Flash Builder and how you use it. SVN is a great tool to backup your files, let others work on the same project and keep track of all versions of a file. http://www.flashmagazine.com/news/detail/beta_versions_of_flash_catalyst_and_flex_on_labs/ Tonight Adobe released new beta versions of the new Catalyst interaction design tool as well as the recently renamed Flash Builder (formerly Flex Builder). Both tools have been in closed beta for quite some time, but today everyone can check them out. http://www.flashmagazine.com/reviews/detail/review_trillix_flash_decompiler_4/ Back in October 2007 we took a look at the Trillix Flash Decompiler 3. Since then the guys at Eltima have been hard at work on the big new features in version 4. Last week we took a look at decompiler support for Flex projects and Flash Player 9. http://www.flashmagazine.com/news/detail/mprojector_4_released/ It's been silent on the Projector tools front for a while, but today ScreenTime Media announced the new version of mProjector. Version 4 supports both the Flash and Flex IDE as authoring tools and with Flex it even allows native debugging. http://www.flashmagazine.com/news/detail/flash_cs4_-_take_3/ It's been some rough months for the developers making Flash CS4 at Adobe. After the initial release, lots of users started complaining about the stability and memory usage of the app. This week, the second patch was released solving dozens of issues. http://www.flashmagazine.com/community/detail/ffk09_day_2/ The second day started with nice weather and since the first presentation was not until 9.30 next to all attendees got there to the first presentation. This was the day of my own presentation so I was really nervous, but decided to sleep in as long as possible not to think too much about it. http://www.flashmagazine.com/community/detail/ffk09_day_1/ It's that time of the year again. The largest German Flash conference kicks off and this one is bound to be quite special for me as I'm not only attending as I usually do. With more than 500 attendees this is by far the largest regional conference we know of and this is our report from the event. http://www.flashmagazine.com/news/detail/do_you_remember_samorost/ The Samorost minigame amazed the entire Flash scene when it launched many years back. The unique visuals and fun puzzles made it an instant hit for the makers Amanita Design. Now they're hard at work on a brand new game called Machinarium that looks absolutely stunning!
