Want list for Update #2

[Jason]

I just thought I would throw in a few ideas on things that would be great if they were included in update #2 of the .swf exporter.

1. The ability to export flash light files. This way we could create content for Flash-ready mobile devices, such as Android 2.2 smartphones, IPhones, etc...

2. The ability to import third party AS3 API files and call their functions from inside MMF2. I started a post related to this at: http://www.clickteam.com/epicenter/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=26510&Number=1949 32#Post194932. This would allow us to use APIs from Newgrounds, GamerSafe, etc... in our products and access their services and features. If this were done seperate extensions would not have to be created for each third party that we wanted to use their APIs.

3. The web browser extension ported so we could create such things as online newspapers, magazines, etc... that have rss feeds and also allow us to use web page content in our products.

4. Some kind of a particle system.

I know. Everything cannot be added immediately without causing a long delay before update #2 is released. I just thought I would start a "wish" list.

Besides, I would rather have more frequent updates with each update containing fewer improvements and fewer new capabilities (such as the capabilities mentioned above) rather then having to wait a long time for one big update that contained a lot of new features and improvements.

Feel free to add to the list.

Box 2D is probably not going to be converted.

Ahh good I would have hated it if it was converted.

?!

Box 2D is probably not going to be converted.

Why?

[Stephen]

Because it has already been established that it would be a tremendous amount of work to convert it to flash.

Actually Box2D has already been converted to the Push Button Game Engine which is a flash game engine. Converting it to flash can be done. Here is a link describing the Push Button Engine. You will find a reference to physics via Box2D listed in the features section.

That's why I thought it would be good in the first place, since it is already in lots of flash games and there is already an open source port of it:
