ActionScript 2.0 :: Including External Swf File With Preloader In Main Swf File
Apr 21, 2008
I'm creating a flash 3d website for a company. The idea is that there is one overall swf file - this holds the navigation and design. Once the user clicks on a button, it goes to frame 10, I have included the following script to load a swf file
loadMovie("deepbartesting.swf", maincontent);
this.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(movieClipName._currentframe==5){
[Code]....
the preloader works, but instead of going to frame 2 of that swf file, it goes to frame 2 of the overall swf that holds the navigation. Does anyone know how to get around this so that it goes to frame 2 in the same swf file as the preloader?

I can't seem to remove / unload the external swf files e.g when the carousel.swf (portfolio) is displayed and I press the about button the about content is overlapping the carousel (portfolio) . How can I remove / unload an external swf file from the main flash file and load a new swf file, while at the same time removing garbage collection from memory?

I have developed a small website in flash 8 ...
- The website has content (text) which is loaded externally
- The images are also called externally with 'loader' component
- I have added a preloader at the beginning of my file
But still when I loaded it on the server....the images and the content is coming slowly. Some way to load the whole file completely at the time of loading (including the external content)?

I have a video in .flv format that I have converted into .swf. And this .swf file, I have added it in into my main flash file by using Loader. And now, I want to detect when this video will finish playing so that I can go to the next frame which is not looping the video again and again.

I Have a flashmovie thats almost done and will soon hit the internet, but I want to add some animations into the website it�s two gears that I�m about to put at the bottom of the page and when a button releases in the main flashmovie the two bottom gears will turn a few frames and just stand still.These three movies are all separate (main movie, first gear and second gear).
It's a homepage designed in HTML and flash that has this "main flashmovie" in the middle of the screen, the size is about 1500(width)X800(height). And the gears is about 800wX200h placed at the left and right side bottom of the page. Dont worry the site is easy to apply to any screen resolution.I have been looking everywhere for any soul out there who suffering from the same problem but no success. Is it possible to script a button in the main movie to launch two separate movies in their own contents?

I'm working on a project that requires a swf file to have a built in preloader. In the past, puting a preloader in caused problems, because the preloader, wouldn't load until about 90% of the swf had allready loaded. Is there a way to tell flash to load a particular frame first? Or perhaps stream itself?

I'm trying to wrap my head around AS3 and it isn't going well. I'm getting stuck on the most basic of problems it's making me pretty angry. I'm trying to do something as simple as reference the stage and I just can't figure it out; something that usually takes me seconds has eaten up 2 days of my time.
I have a Main.fla that outputs Main.swf; it contains no script, only library assets. I have a document class set up using Main.as, which itself has 1 trace and code to run the Preloader class, which is held in Preloader.as.

I have a preloader that loads an external .swf file. Preloader works fine, technically the external .swf loads fine, but the external .swf is scaled up so you can only see about 2/3 of the screen. I made the stage for the preloader the same size as the stage for the external swf. I used the HTML for the swf that gets loaded, and just changed the file name to that of my loader.

I used the CS5 Flash templates>sample files>preloader for external file, to create my preloader.The problem is that when the preloader is done and my SWF is loaded, my SWF has already started playing.It is an animation that builds for 200 frames then buttons appear.By the time the SWF appears it has already gotten to the button frame.Depending on connection speed I have caught the animation building.
Here is the preloader action:
var contentLoader:Loader; loadContent("stage002.swf"); function loadContent(url:String):void { contentLoader = new Loader();

Basically, I adapted the design totally, but chose to display a percentage along with the animated "loading..." thing there.
One difference is that my buttons are located in the Transition movie clip and the loadText dynamic text field(where the percentage is displayed) is also in the Transition movie clip.
Here's the code I attached to Content movie clip:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
[Code].....
If you visit [URL] you'll see the busted result.
For a deeper look the fla is downloadable at: [URL]

Anybody finished Claudio's preloader tutorial?? Great tutorial... preloader works fine for me. However, I tried tweaking it a bit and cant get a part to work. Maybe someone can suggest a fix. I'm pretty sure its a simple thing I'm not seeing. Basically, I adapted the design totally, but chose to display a percentage along with the animated "loading..." thing there. One difference is that my buttons are located in the Transition movie clip and the loadText dynamic text field(where the percentage is displayed) is also in the Transition movie clip.

Can you have a/s in the external swf that runs a 'gotoAndplay' in the main movie? I want the swf to be halfway through when the picture on my main swf changes.~ Seretha(I can't load the picture in with the external swf because they have to be unloaded at different times and the picture HAS to load on a level under the external swf.)

I have a Flex application that loads some data from the database. During this I want my custom preloader stay visible. When I postpone the dispatchEvent( new Event(Event.COMPLETE)) in the FlexEvent.INIT_COMPLETE handler, the loading will never happen because the next frame is not entered. How can I keep the loader running until all the data is fully loaded?

I'm trying to get a swf file to play in a main swf file. I can get it to play, but it always appears in the top left corner. I've tried several different methods to position it but every one of them either doesn't work or won't play the file.Here's what I'm using right now.
Actionscript Code:
stop();loadMovieNum("circles.swf", 1);var xset = 381;var yset = 179;
The swf plays just fine, but it won't take the coordinates.I also need to get it to stop when I go back and the command
Actionscript Code:
unloadMovieNum(circles.swf);
doesn't work.A tutor in my class showed me a method to place the swf into a box on the main stage without doing a lot of scripting, just putting in some file-name and size/position references, but he's not available right now to ask how he got that started.

In trying to keep file size down for download time... I have a SWF file that I have placed using the "UILoader" component (not sure if this is the correct thing to do)... what I would like to work out is how to make a preloader within my main timeline for this SWF file when it comes in. I hope that makes sense - I am very new to all this and struggling with terminology etc. I figured Actionscript would be what I need - but no clue right now...

I have my preloader loading my main swf where I'm loading another swf that contains a background.
When my preloader is done it shows my main swf but it takes a while after that for the background to load.
Whats the easiest way to get my preloader to wait until the background swf is done loading?
