Always when I'm close to being finished!!!!!!!!!

Game Ranger 3 is giving me problems and I don't know how to fucking fix it! Everything has been fine with the syncing and timing until today!

Why? I don't fucking know! Out of the blue anything new added is at least three frames delayed when it comes to audio and because of that, the audio for the epilogue is WAY off now!

So...I'm going to have to keep animating like I have been, but then convert the entire scene to a movie clip with the audio embedded inside like I used to do... HOWEVER, this prevents me from being able to start the clip mid-scene!!!!!!!!

Why is that so bad? Well, because now I can't animate normally and then drop off the viewer where I want them. In other words, I can't break scene 3 into two pieces seamlessly anymore... Now I have to find a way to break it up into two separate sections with the correct timing...ARGH!!!!!!!

This shit always ends up fucking happening...I don't know why the audio, placed in the root timeline, is suddenly playing out of sync with the animation starting at one certain point....it's completely fine up until when Ganon delivers his line, but then it goes way off!

Well...making it a movie clip didn't do shit...so I'm posting the question to the BBS

It's probably going out of synch because you are only using event sounds. If you have a background music track, you need to put it in it's own separate layer and set it to stream.

When there is a stream sound playing, flash forces the video to keep pace with the audio. All other event sounds will hit right on cue as long as there is a stream sound playing. If there is no stream sound to act as a "timekeeper", then your flash can get screwy with the event sounds.

That may be the issue...

I have everything set to "Stream" when it plays in order to keep the size down and end the audio where I place an empty key frame.

I do, however, have music playing in a layer above all the other audio pieces, but it's not something that plays constantly throughout the scene. One song ends and then there's quiet, then another piece plays, then ends, and another begins.

I really appreciate your help and I'll try out what you're suggesting.
