Hi DT,

I’m not aware of any possible way how to run another .air app from .air app, but you can surely load dynamically .swf to the AIR app that’s possible.

Even you can make your game as Flex Module and load it as module. Advantage is that you will have access to functions of your module, so you can call its functions directly, so you can control loaded module from your .air app

Does this help you?

I will write you email as well

Good luck with your game

Hi Franto. Even though this blog is 3 years old, as newbie to Flex & AIR (and using Suduko) I have acorss a problem which i am hoping you could help me with. Feel free to say NO; no hard feeling.

Here is it:
Let’s say I have written an AIR app (called playGames.air) which runs in desktop mode (not via a browser). When playGames.air is run, it shows aaa a page which has a link whereby clicking on the link will start running the Soduku game (as a standalone and NOT via a browser). There is no more interaction between playGames.air * the Soduku game except that when the user ‘Quits’ playing Soduko, the control should go back to playGames.

Now, if it ***were*** possible form an AIR app (playGames.air) to load another AIR app (soduku.air), then I could install the .air bits on the same machine, write some Flex-based code to load soduko.air from playGames.air … BUT my understanding is that it is NOT possible to dynamicall load an .air app from another one.
1. Question: Is this (my above assumption) correct? If not, do u have any sample code that shows how to do this?

Assume that this is in fact the case and I can not load .air from with another .air. In this case I suppose I could load sudoko.swf from with playGames.air.
2. Question: In this case when the user invokes soduko.swf, would it run with the AIR app frame (and NOT invoke a browser)?

Thx in advance for your help.
DT

I tried my hand at making a Sudoku Flash Game a while back.
I tried to figure out the code all on my own after playing the game only once. Sort of a mental exercise.

Not perfect but check my different types of games. I think the Audio version is unique “maybe not”. But it is very hard. LOL

Have fun.
