No, it's a capability I've decided I want to have, but one I'm not willing to spend hundreds of dollars acquiring.

Re: Low cost alternative for creating SWF?
you say you have the individual 3D files..
but by chance did you create these files in a 3D program that will render an output as an animated .gif ?
..if so you can import this anime.gif file directly onstage into Flash..
Flash will then deConstruct the anime automaticlly into the Timelined Frames.
..download a Trail version of Flash8 or newer.

another good, low cost program for .swf creation is MotionArtist.
I've used this program & it is very easy & outputs very good quality .swf

Well, for what it's worth, the latest Format Factory is awesome! I had an older version of it already, but they've added many new formats since I last looked at it, including the very nice swf creator. Definitely recommend!

Re: Low cost alternative for creating SWF?
Hi Guys,
I have been using a free download of Flash slideshow maker v4.11. I have found its good and really simple for creating slideshows. I normally make my slides in PS3 first though. You get nice control of the transitions etc, only downside of the free download is it inserts a slide advertising itself into every gallery.
Check here for a few examples http://www.southpacificadventure.com/photo%20gallery/
Hope its of some help.
