Tried all the suggestions, still nothing seems to be working. SWC just won’t publish

Thank you so much for this!! I’ve been pulling my hair out for the past 2 days trying to figure out what happened. Deleting all the .swc and .swf files, then recompiling to another directory did the trick for me.

Just encountered the same issue (I’ve been in Flash since v4 and this was a new one to me). The solution posted by robg1976 worked for me.

I just add the same problem, I did all the previous solutions that you guy’s wrote and nothing was successful.

I then tried to add some code on the timeline on the firstframe, a simple stop(), and boom!!! worked on first try…

Try it !

i had the same problem. i just “outsourced” the swc production to my coworker. very un-nerdy solution – but did the job

anyway thanks for the hints and links.

Yup I’ve had that problem too. In fact I’ve had my fingers burnt so many times by swc’s that I try and avoid them at all costs. My favourite is the way they sometimes randomly strip all of the timeline actionscript from their assets – maybe this is connected to the empty script tags that Alan Klement found in your swc’s catalog.xml?

If possible, I’ll import or embed swfs instead. Bah.

Mike, I’d appreciate it if you didn’t post irrelevant comments to blatantly promote your own template site.

Has same issue occur during a Game Jam. Found solution on the FlashDevelop forums and made a follow-up in a thread that occurred when yet another programmer hit this bug:

One of the worst head scratchers; I hope Adobe fixes this outstanding bug soon.
