"Connecting"

Postby redtailgames » 09 Oct 2015, 16:16

Hi there. I'm working on a small virtual world using Adobe Flash CS6 and SmartFoxServer Pro. (I'm using this tutorial:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUT3pzG8vzY)

I've done everything correctly in this tutorial, and when I click "Publish Preview" on Adobe Flash CS6, it brings up a SmartFoxServer tab that says "Connecting..."

I'm really new to this kinda thing and I'm not sure if this is a Adobe Flash problem, or a SmartFoxServer problem. Any help/knowledge would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
no errors after a while? It should fail pretty soon, if there's a connection problem.

If it hangs forever it may be a firewall issue. To double check instead of "Publish Preview", simply run the project in the Flash IDE itself, by hitting CTRL+Enter (Windows) or Cmd+Enter (Mac)

Does it work? If not does it fail with any error?

thanks
Lapo

Wow! That worked, thanks so much! Do you have any idea why it's doing that when I click "preview project" though?

Thanks again! :D

The preview launches the project in the browser which is subject to the "policy cross-domain" restrictions.
