one word: OVERKILL!!!!

Why Adobe, WHY!?!? As an aspiring flash author, I'm TIRED of having to replace my version of Flash! Damn you Adobe, and all your new innovations! About 50% of all my experience in Flash 8 has just been rendered null and void! Now i have to go get used to THAT.

Okay, yeah, that aside, it does look like a software with a lot of potential... but I don't think I could keep up with a whole new version every year...

This is great. But I'd also like to see better stability and a better actionscript editor. If they can put in an AS editor half as good as Flash Develop I'd be quite pleased.

This is 2.5D:

3D means 3 Dimensional. X, Y, and Z. 2D means 2 dimensional, X and Y. If you have played games like cadillacs and dinosaurs, you'd know what 2.5D is. X. It allows you to move left or right of the screen. Y. It allows you to jump upwards. Z, it allows you to move up or down, ie inside and out. SO you can see that it has a 3D environment where you can move in 3 dimensions but none of the aspects of the game uses any 3D engine the graphics are made of sprite and such.

2.5D as an animation term means working with flat 2-D elements in a 3-D space, creating realistic-looking camera pans and zooms.

Not the right place to ask, but anyway:

I'm copying an object from one Flash project into another. When doing so the object in the new project gets terribly pixelated!! Why could that be?

[PowerPlanetTheGame]

you know what people mean though, by 2.5d. like littlebigplanet is 2.5d because it's like a 2d game but it's rendered in 3d.

Not talking about a mixture between the two... even so, it cannot be classified as "2.5 D", such a dimension does not exist.

"D" stands foe dimension, which is either whole, or non existent. Simply because, in this case, there's a mixture, suddently doesn't mean there's a "2.5 D".

actually 2.5D is when the foreground is 3D but the background is 2D

Yes, in fact if your an advanced artist amd animator, you may find that the bone tool does not render as wanted if you do decide to use vecter lines as your drawings. See my video to fully understand it.

I have flash pro 8, but I'm thinking of getting CS4, are there any nasty surprises I should know about?

ok then 2d
