"Concept is great, but does not pan out anymore"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Scaleform?

The idea of using a simple scripting language to design and manage UI elements. That is great since the UI designers don't need to know C++ to create UIs, plus we can test the ui outside of the engine without no problem Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scaleform?

Well, since Adobe has made it almost impossible to get the older versions of ActionScript. It is a pain to onboard a new person. We have one computer with the correct version of adobe flash, and all the UI Designers share it. One thing I would say to change is using HTML5(html+js), please. We are talking to Coherent Labs about their middleware for our next title since it is pure-ish HTML5 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Scaleform:

If you have to use, then yes i would. If you dont have to use, HELL NO Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Scaleform solving and how is that benefiting you?

First, the UI were being done in C++. This was not good since our designers don't know C++, so that would mean our engineers would have to do and take them off more critical tasks. And It would slow the UI design process down.

benefits realized- Yes, since now our engineers are only doing about 10-20% of tasks related to UI work, and most of the functions are now being done by the Designers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good tool in general, but with it's flaws and limitations"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Scaleform?

If you know Flash, you'll be right at home. There are some things that you need to keep in mind during work with Scaleform, but in general the workflow is very similar to good old Flash Platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scaleform?

1. No hot reload. You need to recompile swf, upload it and restart the client

2. Some Flash features are not supported, some are acting differently from native Flash

3. Support was slow and for some simple cases it was easier to patch the sources manually, rather then wait for vendor solution Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Scaleform:

What problems is Scaleform solving and how is that benefiting you?
