Can flash (from HDD) open a exe with parameters?

[Niber]

Hi,
I'm a Flash Pioneer, but it was a long while since I used it.

I have made a c++ 3d application where you get to run around in a 3d scen of mine, the way you start it is that you go into cmd and write:
Nibers3dapp.exe -res=[insert prefered screenres here] -cd=[insert colordepth]
Can I make a flash standalone exe that displays a options screen where you get to select screenres and such and then when you hit START flash opens niber3dapp.exe and sends along those parameters cmd-style?

I really hope that is possible becouse I have a GUI in flash already and it will take me lots of extra time to code that into my 3d exe.

You're going to need a third party wrapper - check, for example, www.northcode.com.

ouch that was expensive, I might give it a try, too bad Flash doesn't support it nativly.

There were rumours about greater system access, but I can't see any mention in the Flash 8 specs. You might want to look at some other tools - I don't know much about others - anyone else? - but I think some (Flash juggler?) are a bit more modular, so that you could buy just a subset of the functionality, to get what you need.

Yes I (well my school) have FlashJugglor,
but I dunno how to use it to do this thing, but if you say it's possible I will check a bit in the help file to see if I find it.

As I say, I'm not sure about that program, it's just one I've heard of - SWFStudio from Northcode is all I've used.

I have posted a smiliar thread on Jugglor's forum, so we will see if it does support that.
Thank you for your support :)

Man was that hard :(
