Scripted fading colour changing query

[SBuskell]

Does any1 know how to change a movieclip's colour value using AS? Thing is I need it to fade from 1 to another, not just flick like in all the tutorials I've found so far.

Can any1 help or point me at a tute or sumthing?

Im not gr8 at AS so the simpler the better. Thanks.

You can always use a motion tween on the MC and save the whole tween in a new MC which you can activate at anytime. Then if u use

_root.YourMCName.gotoAndPlay(1);

it should play a smooth tween between the two colours, depending on how many frames you use.

Thats what I have at the moment. The trouble is its pretty big and im getting nasty nasty slow down. I was hoping that using script rather than tweening mite cut down the choppiness. finger Xed.

Thanks anyway though dude. Any other ideas?
