APMS 6 to Flash?!

[Moncyber]

Please help me!
Is it possible to convert the presentation from APMS to Flash format?
This feature needed to play presentation on Apple computers.

Hi. There's no way I know of to convert AMS projects to Flash and retain the functionality. AMS is a Lua based tool, Flash is based upon actionscript. Lua and Flash actionscript are not cross-compatible. There is no actionscript equivalent for many of the actions available in AutoPlay Media Studio. In particularly security restrictions related to playing .swfs prevent you from doing tons of stuff with Flash which AMS can easily do. And rightfully so, can you imagine if web sites could just freely read/write to your file system? :)

AFAIK the only way you can playback and AMS presentation on a Mac is to use one of the various PC emulators available for Mac, but obviously there's no guarantee of performance on Mac.

If you have a new Intel-based Mac, you can run Windows natively. No emulation required anymore...

Parallels (http://www.parallels.com/en/products/desktop/) and Boot Camp (http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/) are two native Windows options for Intel Macs.
