I'm using Flash Pro CC. I have zero previous flash experience. I'm a videographer/video editor that mainly works with live action video and I edit in Premiere CS5. I found a flash animation that I wanted to modify and use
in a video project. I paid for and downloaded the file from the site activeden.com. I'm running Flash Pro CC on a Windows 7 64 bit machine. My Flash player is up to date with Flash 11. I've never had any problems with any flash web sites not working. But when I import these files, I can only see a grey box. When I hit play at the bottom, I don't see anything happen. It looks like the file was created with Flash CS4. Any ideas for what's happening?
I've contacted the file creator to see if he could help me out, but I'm not holding my breath for that. I thought maybe someone on here could help a Flash novice out. Also curious if anyone out there could explain the relationship between the .fla files, the .swf files and the .xml files. I'm use to working with video where you just import a raw file (.mov or .mpeg4) into the NLE program and then export out as a compressed file (.mov or .mpeg4).
