This is my site [URL] (click on "portfolio", "about us") so far only this... My goal is to make all animations to load at once, because right now it only loads (loadMovie) on whatever you click, therefore there is a delay between the link you click and what will open. How you could preload all animations before you enter the site. Example of what I mean is here: [URL]
View 1 RepliesDoes anyone knows how something similar can be done: [URL] surface I mean the video clips, which zoom when you mouse over them, then when you click they will go forward, blurring the background. Then on close, everything will go back t the home screen. And all the time the movies inside will play.
View 2 Replieson my website, I wanna load different bg animations after my page has been loaded. I don't wanna pre-load because I don't want waiting time. Will loading in this way interfere with anything else on my page such as the buttons actions slowing down?
View 3 RepliesIn my project I used main document file, which could load multiple nested animations as a separate files. In the main document I had a global function, for example:
_global.onAnimationEnd(mc:MovieClip){...}
and in animations (could be nested) I just called it like:
onAnimationEnd(this);
I'm working in Flash 5...I've made a random loading database of animations that's the first thing to load in my movie. My problem is that after the random images fade in, display, and then fade out I need the next movie clip to load. Right now I can't figure out how to get the second movie clip to load Following the random loading movie clips...all the other animations want to play at the same time the random movie clip plays.I used a modified version of the Kirupa random loading background...it's on the timeline as "Location" with the action scripting for the random load on that layer. Can anyone tell me how how get the second animation to play After the random loading clips play?[code]
View 14 RepliesI want to do is a simple transition that allows to me start some function (at the external swf!) to dismount the LOADED content. I'd like to change the external contents with intros and "outros" located on their own timelines.. It's a simple logic, but I dont know how to manage that.. Everytime I try some simple, it never happens.

I'm trying to understand how AS3 works compared to AS2 when using navigation buttons to load external .swf files.
In AS2, I would have 5 menu buttons. Each button contained a script to load an external .swf file into layer 2 (on top of my existing movie). It would also contain a line of code to unload any movie that was already in Layer 2. This way new movies came in on top and were easy to identify when it came time for them to be unloaded.
Now in AS3, I can't find a similar way to work with external movies, since there are no longer layers. I create a movieLoader and add a child to it to load my external .swf - that works fine.But how do I tell each button to remove any children that already exist before loading the new child? The way it works now, the movies just keep piling on top of each other whenever I click a button.[code]...

what about a *swf movie(1.3) loaded into a *swf movie(1.2) witch is loaded into a *swf movie(1.1)?can I unload movie 1.3 separately?
Ok, I know this is probally has a simple answer. but i cant figure it out. i have 3 buttons each controling a different movie clip. but the effect i want is when you click a button the assigned movie clip loads ontop of the other. basically this is because the movie clips are alpha tweens and i need that transition effect

I have a video, 14 minutes long, at various times, I need to load information for a few seconds, and then unload it.At the moment, I'm doing it all in the timeline which works fine, however I'm limited by 16,000 keyframes which for the last video, was about 7 minutes (full video was 9).Is there a way to load and unload in 1 long action script file at the beginning of the video? eg (not actual code btw)
at 4 seconds, load 1.swf into container1
at 14 seconds, unload 1.swf from container1
at 16 seconds, load 2.swf into container1

I'm trying to load some swf movies using loadMovie, but I'm having the folllowing problem:
There are three movies: 1.swf, 2.swf, and, 3.swf.
=> 1.swf loads inside 2.swf
=> 2.swf loads inside 3.swf
When I test 3.swf, it plays only 1.swf (exacly where I put it in 2.swf - coordinates) but doesn't play 2.swf.
Everything looks correct, includind the containers.
All actionscript is in the frames and I'm using Flash MX.
i wanna be able to load both variables from an external .txt file, and a external .swf file at the same time. now the problem is i need the .swf to only open if the movie is at frame 15. here is my current code:
on (press) {
loadVariablesNum ("test.txt", 0);
}[code].....
I use Adobe Flash CS4 and Dreamweaver CS4. Any flash movie I make in Flash CS4 won't load in my browser

I'm trying to work out the details in my head about some of these objects. A loader, and a movieClip. Is the loader the default object to use to load images/movies onto the stage (Actionscript 3)? The movieclip is more of an actionscript 2 object? (thought I read that somewhere).
If not what is the difference between these two objects and why would you use one and not the other.(you don't need to go onto too much detail) I'm learning AS3 but there is some AS 2 scripts (trying to convert to 3) that are used in our projects, so I've had to bounce back and forth with how I code.
I made a movie that has sound in it being activated and deactivated by using the sound object and linkage id's and it works like a champ.Now i take that movie and load it into another movie like so.....
actNav_mc.loadMovie("test.swf");
Now the sounds dont play or work.So just for fun i brought the sound files into the library of my _parent movie and the sounds worked. Since i must have the sounds in the loaded file this is not a viable option. I then tried using the import linkage on an empty mc in the parent movie and it worked but i could shut the sound off.What i originally had....
navloop_sound = new Sound();
What fixed it....
navloop_sound = new Sound(this);
I have made a flash player that loads in two external flash movies this is all now workign fine with a little extra help, however the problem i have now is that when the movies load in they both show in different places, for example the external movie called new_products loads perfectly in places, for example one of the movies loads into place where i want it to but the second loads in to position starting at the top left.When i add x, y for the loader it affects them both, but they still originate from differnt start positions.[code] URL...
View 5 RepliesI created a simple Flash app that shows a menu on the side with 2 movie choices. Each movie choice is supposed to play a different movie. The whole thing works just fine on my local machine but when I upload to the test server, the movies never start. Near as I can tell the SWF loads and functions fine but the movies dont work... constant loading bar. Of course, I want them to stream in a YouTube-like fashion. I've fought with this for some time, tried .FLV files directly in DW (no joy there either) so I'm stuck. If I replace the movies with images, the SWF functions just fine. Just can't seem to do the movies.

View 3 RepliesI am working with Flash MX. I am creating a site with a Main.fla which contains buttons to load other SubPage.swf files. For example, I have a Page1 button with the following actionscript code.
on (release) {
_root.contents.loadMovie("page1.swf");
}
It works fine. Now when I work on the Page1.fla, I am trying to load other Movies in the same fashion. It works when I CMD+RETURN to generate the .swf file. However when I CMD+RETURN the Main.fla file and load the Page1 file, the buttons won't load the movies. Is this a Target Path issue? How would I remedy this?
