Product Description:

Gordon is a collection of Flash add-on tools that simplify and accelerate Flash development and help optimize Shockwave Flash (SWF) files. Gordon can decompile all ActionScript and accurately display all movie elements of a published SWF file. With Gordon you can compress Shockwave Flash movies and take advantage of the new Flash MX format without having access to the original .fla project. Vector graphic, bitmap image and sound data can be easily exported to a variety of different formats including PDF and TIFF. Whether you want to recover lost or corrupt Flash documents, review the programming of an animation, updating an entire site to Flash MX or just explore the SWF file structure, Gordon can help.

I was able to decompile the .swf and find the bits that needed to be updated. Then saved the decompiled .swf as a Flash MX 2004 document. After finding the component that need to be updated in Gordon, I was able to go directly to the Flash library and find the object to be updated. I modified the instance and published the new file from Flash MX 2004. The results were excellent and I expect that the client will be pleased.

Also, when I inquired about not receiving an activation code upon payment for Gordon, the developer (FutureCandy) was reasonably prompt at supplying the requested information.

My experience has been fairly positive. I won't say that Gordon is intuitive - especially if you're decompiling a large and complicated .swf file - but it did the job for me. And my client is pleased with the result.

Maybe the secret here is decompiling in Gordon and then saving a .fla file. Making the mods in Flash and then republishing. Others have reported less than complimentary things and I wonder if that's because of their workflow.

I bought Gordon Flash Decompiler version 1.7 and can only say that it is complete crap. When you do the save to .fla command, 50 % of the time, it produces defect .fla files that flash 8 cannot open. I regret my investment.
