Thank you Gibie for informing people of the Flashificator project, and for keeping them updated, and hello to everyone. Sorry for bursting in here with English... but I'm sure some good soul will get this translated (if it is found of interest).
Significant improvements in the past few releases:
The ability to save projects and work on them later.
The ability to make templates for projects, and cut down the need to make everything from the beginning again. Now you can simply take one of your older project files, remove all the panoramas from it (you would have to remove all but the initial pano, replace the old initial pano with a new one), drop in new panoramas in Tourificator, and be ready with a complete tour.
Of course, if you need different graphics for banners or logo for your client or special tooltips info and such, you would have to replace graphics, videos, mp3's etc, but that is quickly done.
Clocks have been made, and the Clock builder enables you to make any kind of clock you choose, and put it anywhere you want in the panorama, both distorted and static.
Here an example:

Now projects can be Flashificated in Flash 10 compatible mode (with the latest FPP pano.swf)
The Mapper plugin is the most complete and customizable floormap solution available anywhere. Admitted, it is not easy to learn many of the ways one does things, in the interface, but once you have learned it, you have unlimited possibilities to work with.
Tommy Wirestam's PicMenu is about to be published, enabling linked tours with hundreds of panoramas being done in only a few minutes (depends on how fast you can drag the panoramas into Tourificator)
Flyout images are a nice feature and easy to manage
Videos can be put into panoramas in a very fast, precise and easy way. Next version enables users better control of putting video and images into place inside the panoramas, with a selection of 0-1-2 and 3 decimals in the numeric steppers used for aligning visual components in the panoramas.
Nadir caps can be put in place with 5-6 clicks... choose between a floating or a glued nadir cap.
Slideshow can be implemented in the panorama with FFC's own slideshow component.
Of course there is the dashboard... with a complete set of buttons in only a couple of clicks.
Flashificator is far from being perfect, and there are stil errors and bugs found on daily basis, but that is only natural, taking in consideration that the program is still in active development. It does give you access to a lot of functionality in a very easy way. I am just as code-impaired as always. I am waiting for the next release to be ready, so that I can finish a project for a client, with over 30 panoramas. I have only made a template with ONE panorama from the project, and when the next version is ready, I recon that I can finish the whole project in 2-4 minutes. That is how fast one can work, and get quality from it.
I would love to be able to offer Flashificator in a French version, but that is not possible right now, but here you can read the "grand plan", that may make it possible to come with it in a French version:

Thank you for your attention, and my apologies for not being able to write in French... even though I can read simple French.
