Re: Beta Flash player

I like it. The only problem is that there's sometimes a problem with the full screen key. Also, it takes a while to load. Other than that it was great, although it wasn't much different then the Java default.

Re: Beta Flash player

Most of the things seem to work fine. Oneprobem that I noticed is something with timing. My project (the only one so far) programmatically emulates double-clicking. I certainly works on download (except may need adjustment on really slow or busy computers, I guess), it works nice in Java viewer online, but completely not working in Flash. I mean the indicator of double-clicking timing is showing hat it is supposed to, but the double-click procesing script does not result in reaction. I do not have time to think or debug, but you can easily download my project and see what is the problem with timing in your development environment, or which o my simplistic techniques are at fault. Thanks!

Re: Beta Flash player

Also in IE9 the attempt to get it to full screen does something but not quite what you expect. Originally project stage is filling about 85-90% of the slightly bigger black-background area in the center of the screen. After clicking on "Full screen" icon, the dispayed area jumps to the left computer screen edge, and now my project stage occupies the whole rectangle, about 10% bigger than original. So definition of the "screen" may be at fault.

Re: Beta Flash player

Awesome! Some projects go a little fast, though.
I would love it if you also found a way that I could make projects on my iPhone.

Re: Beta Flash player

For one of my projects, the graphics look better with the Java player.

Re: Beta Flash player

I have Google Chrome on Windows 7, and the Flash player seems to be faster than Java, I tested Java and Flash on a project that was slightly lagging on Java, (slow update speed)

forever
  go to [mouse-pointer v]
end
Java lagged display updates, while Flash kept constant display updates throughout cursor movements, but other than that, I haven't seen any other differences.

Re: Beta Flash player

It is a good concept, but it takes FOREVER to load! Although the Flash version has better graphics, the Java one is brilliant.

The Java one gives a sense of originality. The flash, seems as though someone has pirated a flash game, and made it for scratch.

I prefer the Java one, but could you guys update it so it is faster? Only if possible.



But.... GET RID OF THE FLASH PLAYER!!!!!

+1 the java vm should run faster now, and the scratch applet isn't seeming to show that.

the java player is slow and scratch 2.0 is already so far into development that they cant just throw out the flash player
flash may take forever to load on your computer but on mine it works like heaven

I agree, a new version of the Java player would be really nice, but the flash player must stay.
