Flash Decompiler Trillix for Windows

User Reviews

• Good for editing and extracting from .swf files

  cheesburgrMarch 14, 2017

  Pros

  allows you to view all elements from a flash file

  Cons

  slight learning curve with the interface (quickly adjusted to it)

  Summary

  This utility allowed me to examine all the objects comprising flash elements of my company's old website (the previous designer was no longer available), which was indispensable in creating a new one.

• Crashes flash

  NL_bestNovember 17, 2013

  Pros

  Can extract images, but creating an editable FLA is another story.

  Cons

  Says it converted the SWF to FLA successfully, but when I try to open the resulting FLA in Flash, Flash says the file is corrupt and stops working.

  Summary

  The demo version of this software does not do enough to thoroughly evaluate its performance. After dropping $80, I found that the software is worthless as the FLA files it created could not be opened in Flash.

• DON'T UPGRADE! It'll disable the software!

  cnereviewerSeptember 8, 2011

  Pros

  Decompiles Flash Quickly?

  Cons

  Actionscript is somewhat hard (expected for a decompiler). My biggest problem is the support: I tried to update it via the menu and it disabled the software. Tech support says it's my problem and hasn't helped.

  Summary

  It worked fine until I tried to update it. Now I spent the money on software that won't work. It's been a week since I originally complained and am getting the runaround, quote: According to our purchase policy all registered users can download free upgrades within the major version. All further upgrades can be purchased with 50% discount. This can be derived from Eltima Upgrade policy page I just want it to work again and it's taken too much effort. I've called, emailed and filled out their online forms. Go with another company - They all offer the same product (flash decompiler) but OTHERS will hopefully NOT disable your software for clicking on "update" after you've paid good money. Just my opinion after dealing with customer service this week!

• Almost worked, but did not preserve Flash 8 filters

  powerflashJanuary 20, 2010

  Pros

  Like how the browser lets you inspect individual elements within the SWF.

  Cons

  Does not seem to preserve the use of filters (Flash 8+)

  Summary

  Saved me a lot of work from recreating the FLA from scratch, but I still had to redo all of the filter effects after decompiling the SWFs to FLAs (version 8 FLAs). Also, some dynamic text fields lost their formatting - while other text fields came out fine. After decompiling from SWF to FLA and making a simple text edit to the FLA, then publishing back to SWF, the file size of the new SWF ended up about 25% larger than the original SWF. It's not perfect - don't expect a perfect decompile, as you will need to do some (or a lot) of tweaking to the resulting FLA depending on its complexity.

• Works better than the others I tried

  KidDynamicDecember 23, 2009

  Pros

  This has a great interface, easy to use, and works perfectly. I was able to open a SWF that had external AS, several imported classes, and it worked without a flaw. Everything was named understandably, the script was clean, and I'm very happy.

  Cons

  I wasn't clear on the limitations for the demo version. The demo exported all the imagery as black and white and didn't export actionscript. But it was the only thing that worked.

  Summary

  This software saved my bacon, and I tried 3 others with no success until I found this one. it's worth the $80!

• Crashes Flash

  kitch09November 2, 2009

  Pros

  None - the FLA files it creates cause Flash to crash.

  Cons

  After running a SWF through this decompiler, the resulting FLA file crashes Flash as soon as I try to open the file.

  Summary

  Not sure of the value of this software if I can't use the decompiled FLA files ??

• Looked promising, BUT...

  sparkflashJune 5, 2009

  Pros

  Displays all of the elements within a SWF

  Cons

  Resulting FLA crashes my Flash

  Summary

  I was trying to recover the source for my SWF and I thought this app would do the trick. It looked promising when this app was able to open my SWF and display all of the elements in the library. But when this program exports the SWF to FLA, the resulting FLA file crashes Flash when I try to open it. I found another decompiler on Download.com that can create FLA's that I am able to open and edit. I suppose you could use this program to extract individual elements from a swf file, and use those parts to manually reconstruct the FLA in Flash - but it would be a lot of work for complex animations.

• Could not decompile my simple slideshow

  flash_guruMay 29, 2009

  Pros

  None - it didn't work for me

  Cons

  Could not even decompile my simple slideshow with minimal actionscript. Very awkward interface Refused to refund $$ despite 15 day money back guarantee

  Summary

  This software is the biggest mistake I've ever purchased. It could not even decompile my simple slide show. I'm not sure where all these other glowing reviews are coming from. I contacted their tech support, and they comfirmed that their software was unable to decompile my files. They claimed there must be something wrong with my swf's, despite the fact the the swf's play perfectly in the Flash Player AND in the preview window IN THEIR SOFTWARE. How can their software display is correctly, but not decompile it correctly? Needless to say, they have also rejected my request for a refund, despite the 15 day money back guarantee proudly displayed on their site. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SOFTWARE ! ! !
