3. I have downloaded the sources, but when I try to lauch FlashGameMaker.swf the loader stay bloked on 0%.
If the swf is blocked it is beacuse of the Flash Security.
Online and local content cannot be accessed from an untrust swf. To allow FlashGameMaker to access files (xml, bmp, mp3 and swf) you must permit the application to communicate.

To do so follow the following manipulation:


- Go to the Adobe Global Security Panel
- Click on "modify, "Add", and "Search a folder".
- Select the folder containing FGM
- Click "Confirm".

Your application is now allow to communicate in local.
