Re: FLASH: PCs and frame rate

[derrickito]

i downloaded a premade .fla the other day from flashkit

http://www.flashkit.com/movies/Widgets/Classic_-Degrees-250/Classic_-Degrees

-250.zip


its a scrolling nav file, the framerate is set at 120fps, it surprised me at

first, i tried to cut it down, and it played horribly, i had never seen a

file up so high before, no problems with it though, it worked


made me rethink what i do with fps sometimes
