Wtihout the source .fla files it's hard to understand how exactly how the menus work. The mod's author asked a Larian guy about the source .fla files for the menu and got this response. Seems like it's a "no" on ever sharing the source of their menu files. It would be nice if Larian gave some documentation on what scripting a flash file needs to use to interface with rest of the game.


Have you tried using a Flash decompiler? That should give you the script references.


Yeah I did. Decompilers spit out pretty messy results. Someone who has a lot of Flash experience could probably make sense of it. The last time I used Flash for any development was over 10 years ago. I don't actually have a license for a modern Flash editor either. So I kind of glanced over the decompiled scripts used in the flash file before deciding that I didn't understand what was actually happening to make it at all work.

Typically when I glance at code or script I can get a decent idea of the of what the program is doing even if I'm unfamiliar with the language. That wasn't the case with the decompiled flash file.
