Output error message

[vyas]

Hi,
This game was devised in Flash MX 2004 and now it seems that it works using the settings AS 2 and Flash Player 6, when save as Flash ver 8 or CS3.

I get the following warning in my output panel and dont know how to correct it.

The file is attached for your reference.
--------------------------------
OUTPUT PANEL:
WARNING: This movie uses features that are not supported in the Flash 6 player
Symbol=Paddle2, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Enhanced stroke is not supported in this player
Symbol=appleMC, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Enhanced stroke is not supported in this player

----------------------------

Please advise.

I think you can simply ignore that warning as long as the look is decent...

When I make use of Flash Player 7 and above, the swf file is not supported. That is my game does not work. Any way to go around this.
Thank you

Lots of your variables become NaN... For example, rockRadius is NaN because your init() function in frame 1 is setting the value, but rock._width does not exist in frame 1 since there is no rock movieClip in frame 1...
I suggest you start tracing out the variables to make sure they all have values not NaN...

Hi again,
What do you imply by tracing the variables in each frame. Do I need to copy my init() from frame 1 to frame 2 as well. Please advise what should I do specifically in this case.
Thank you again

No, by tracing variables, he means put

trace(someVariable)

in there so you can find out the value of someVariable, and if it's printing out NaN in version 7 then put

someVariable=0

into your init function.

This error is caused by something in your file having an advanced stroke (shape outline) that older versions of flash don't support. Simply delete the stroke and the warning messages should be gone.
