Awesome, thanks!

...Now if only I could figure out some way to use any of these files in my old version of Flash, Macromedia Flash 8, or "CS2", so to speak.

You need abode flash professional CS3 or better to use those FLA files.

Well, CS3 has the option of "save as Flash 8 file", right there under "Save As".
I'm assuming newer versions share a similar feature, asides from 3D the only "big" thing Flash 8 / CS3 didn't have was the bone-tool

I happend to still have an old installation file for a CS3 trial lying around, so .......

Well, turns out only four of all these countless files can actually be opened in CS3. Uhm.
"Princess Luna 2", "Flash Sentry (Equestria Girls)","Equestria Girls - Equestria Boy" and "Babs Seed 2", to be specific.

Err.

Aren't they CS5 compatible? Personally I use CS6 so I never have any problems.

I wouldn't be able to tell, I only got Flash 8 and a trial of CS3.

Hmm. Well, seeing how you've got a CS5 version, could you check if it's possible to downgrade CS5-files to CS4? That'd be one step down the ladder.

The option should be under "save as", and there under "filetype".

I am running CS6, not CS5. I can save to CS6, CS5.5, or CS5, so I can only save one step down. I can't save to CS4, CS3, or anything lower.

Ah. Woops, I misread your comment. I thought you had CS5.

You're viewing the inherent content of the file through your browser, instead of Flash. Try downloading the page when you get there to download the file. Chrome makes it easier.

I figured out the problem but not the solution. It seems that the CS4 file doesn't like being saved or copied over to a CS5 file. Is there any way to fix/get around this? I'd rather not have to set all my other assets back to CS4 just to be able to work with it....

I recently had this question answered! The problem is that Flash doesn't handle ">" characters in the symbol names well. If you notice, all of the other puppets use a solid triangle symbol instead.

Instead of manually editing the hundreds of file names, I managed to find an infinitely useful plug in extension for Flash that enables a find and replace function within symbol names. It isn't perfect as it only seems to find one instance per symbol name, but that just means you have to run it a few more times.

I can't seem to find the download for the plug in, but if you private message me I'd be happy to give you my repaired version of the puppet file! Hope this helps.
