I designed a dress up game and had a programmer write some actionscript so that players would be able to drop/drag clothing and it would click to the model. For some reason I am unable to test the movie. I get this error: "Error creating Flash Movie: Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive. Also, check to make sure the name is not too long" I saw this error on a previous post and someone said you must go to Publish Settings and check the location of your file, because the error means it has been moved from it's original location (which I assume is the programmers machine) since there is a looong file path that seems to be from his machine. What do I do? I'd also like to be able to reuse this actionscript for another game and am unable to do that also. Any help is greatly appreciated. 04-30-200802:03 PM # ADS Advertisement by Join Date A

Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive. Also, check that the file name is not too long." Anyone ever have this before, or know what I should do?

Right-click the file, click properties and make sure "read-only" isn't ticked. If it is then uncheck the box. 2] Are you trying to run your Flash movie from another drive that Flash can't write to? when flash publishes a movie it needs to create a .swf in the same directory as your .fla file. 3] otherwise try saving it in a different name and then test it Does this help? autre Reply

If I test each scene separately error creating it runs perfectly, but when I try to run the whole movie it runs for 10 minutes "Exporting SWF Movie" and then stops without any errors or warning and without running project or creating swf file. I am using Adobe Flash Professional cs5.5. Can anyone help me. Thanks. adobe flash actionscript-2 share|improve this question asked Jan 13 '12 at 14:46 user1047517 3542316 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote accepted Flash has a limit on error creating swf how many frames there may be, it's just about that number you have. To troubleshoot it you could either split the timeline into two separate symbols (clips) and then attach the second once the first stopped playing. You could also load FLV instead of compiling it, or compile it as a binary tag and then use NetStream.appendBytes() to play it. share|improve this answer answered Jan 13 '12 at 16:48 user797257 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.
