Sup er'body. So heres my issue, using loader and gskinners swf bridge, i have a as3 wrapper thats just used for functions and getting to the file system (thanks to air). The AS2 swf we bring it using loader, and just addChild(as2) to the stage of our as3 app. This app basically is a image viewer, that you can interact with using mouse or touchscreen. So there is just a review image and some rows of thumbnails.

Everything works cool and such except that sometimes movieclips disappear.

Only using the as2 version there seems to be no issue at all, i can't break it and make the images not appear.

But once I include it in the as3 wrapper and run it that way. Jumping around the thumbnail review panel after a few jumps no image appears where it should be. Just like the object isn't there. Also including it in the as3 wrapper makes the whole app run a bit more sluggish. If I increase the system priority for the app it performs better as well as the issue of images not appearing occurs a bit less. Looking at log files and traces nothing occurs out of the ordinary, so its working just like it should, but sometimes the objects just aren't there.

Now I have heard of issues between as2 and as3 of some componets not working right and stuff of that sort. I was mainly just wondering if people could let me know any issues people have seen occur when loading as2 swfs into as3. Thanks a lot guys.
