Adding Multiple SWF files from Engage to CP5

I have 2 swf files from Engage and I have imported them to Captivate.  The first one works just fine, the second just hangs there.  I have published the SWF files as seperate files when publishing out of CP5.  I then copied the engage files from their location to where the Captivate published content was located.  I left the first SWF as "engage.swf" and the content folder as "engage_content".  The second I renamed "engage2.swf" and called the folder "engage2_content".

I've search several blogs and while the process I'm using seems to be correct.  I can still only ever get the 1st engage.swf file to work.  Any thoughts or is this a CP5 issue as some claim the multiple import of SWFs worked (or works) in CP4.

Regards,

DC

Hello and welcome to the forum,

I suspect that the issue is due to incompatibility of Actionscript versions. Engage probably is AS2 only (old version of ActionScript) and Captivate 5 is ActionScript 3 only. In Captivate 4 it was still possible to choose between 2 versions. Captivate 5 was build up from scratch and the dev. team decided to keep with the more powerful AS3 that is already several years there.

So why would the first engage.swf work perfectly but not the second?

Hello,

I'm not a AS-specialist, but did see a lot of messages here that trying to combine AS2 SWF's with a CP5 file can lead to unpredictable results, that is why I thought this could be also the reason for your issues.
