View 5 RepliesI have music for my site that I want to load from an external file. The external file has a play and stop button in it (which work perfect). I can get the music to load if I make a button that triggers the loadMovie to happen, but can't figure out how to get it to loadMovie using a frame. Basically I just want the main site to load and I want the external music file to load automatically w/o pushing a button or anything. Here's the code I was trying, but the music controller and music never load into the main movie:
Code:
onClipEvent(load){
loadMovie("mcMusic.swf", "music_container_mc");
}
I tried that code on the music_container_mc movieclip but it does nothing.
I have a main SWF that is comprised of scenes. I have buttons that go between those scenes at the bottom (prevscene, nextscene). This works well. On the last scene, I have it loadmovienum and it loads an SWF that has a few scenes in it. It also has the buttons to go between those scenes, which works well.My issue is the first scene of that SWF that is loaded in the main SWF needs to have a button that will send the main SWF to the previous scene in it. Of, conversely, I need the buttons in the main SWF to tell the loaded SWF to go nextscene/prevscene.
View 3 Repliesi'm wondering if i can activate the loadMovie function without button press. usually you see loadMovie utilized like so:
on (release) {
_root.emptyMC.loadMovie("yourmovie.swf");
}
but i'm trying to utilize it so when the user enters the page on the very first frame, the external SWF is loaded into the empty movie clip already. i tried inserting
_root.topSection.loadMovie("topSection.swf", _root.topSection);
in an actions layer on the very first frame of my movie, but when tested nothing is loaded.
I'm trying to Load a Movie in into level0, and I want the playhead to automatically go to Scene 4, label "Start". I don't want to place no actions on the frames of the loaded movie. Thus, I need Flash to first load the movie, then go straight to Scene 4, label "start". I want the button to execute both these actions consecutively.
Here's the syntax I'm using now:
on (release) {
loadMovieNum ("moneyscene.swf", 0);
} on (release) {
_level0gotoAndPlay("Scene 4", "start");
}
And I tried this:
on (release) {
loadMovieNum ("moneyscene.swf", 0);
} on (release) {
tellTarget ("_level0") {
gotoAndStop (Scene 4, "start:";
}}
It works with a movieholder and the loadMovie command. It has 9 buttons, one for each picture, and they work. There's also a previous and next button to navigate through the pictures, there the loadMovie command gives problems. Here are 2 lines that are used in the previous button:

I've been having a right nightmare with this one. So here goes: I've created a dragable MC with a button assigned the following AS:
[Code]....
When I publish, the button does not load test.swf. I have created a blank MC 'container' for test.swf to load to but I need the button to be inside of the dragable MC. The .swf loads when the 'container' is cut and pasted into the dragable MC but to my novice suprise the .swf and the MC would be now both dragable My question is how do I load the .swf with this button inside of the MC and the 'container' outside?
I have created an interface that uses a lot of the loadMovie command using levels. Once I have loaded a movie on say level 3...in that level 3 movieclip I will have another navigation that will load and then use the loadMovie command to load movie on level 3 as well. It loads it correctly but the back button that would contain the unloadMovie(3) command isn't unloading, say if the user wants to go back.
View 2 RepliesI have a photographer's portfolio site in the works. I'm using loadMovie connected to thumbail buttons of each photo to show a larger version of the photo. Here is the script[code]...
Now the photographer would also like to have a next/previous arrow buttons so the user can click through like a slide show. Is there a way to have Flash know what movie is currently loaded and based on that information go to the next or previous?
I have a movie with two squares. Depending on which button is pressed, the demmensions of the both squares change for which I used the following function:
Code:
function scaleMoveClip(clip, breed, hoog, xpos, ypos, snelheid) {
clip.onEnterFrame = function() {
eindX = xpos-this._x;
[code]....
The code for the other buttons is the same but with other arguments. Now do I also need to integrate a loadMovie in the different button actions, to load the different ext.swf's in a container on the stage, but I only want the swf's to load after the callback is finished (when the squares qre not moving any more) How does the loadMovie should look like?
My problem is that if i do an drop-menu-animation and i put it in my button, i can't manage the command LoadMovie, in the primary stage of the site...
What should i do?
My header is an mc with buttons that load swf's into a main content mc with this:on (release) { loadMovie("myswf.swf", _root.holder); and that works perfectly (content loads into mc with no page refresh).But..one of my loaded swf's has the same button code on a button to load swf's into the same mc and I get a page refresh.
View 1 RepliesI'm a second day action script student with a specific goal. I would like a button to load a movie clip to a specific place. I have a button with the "LoadMovie" script and it loads the movie onto level 1, but I don't know how to give whatever it loads an instance name so that I can direct it specifically where to load.

View 1 RepliesI am really stuck with a loadmovie action that I cannot find the solution to. I have a website that I had to split up as the loading time was too long. I have used a loadMovie function and it loads the external movie but the problem is that the external movie requiring a little bit of time to load I want a preloader to come first.
I have attached screenshots of this (wssmain liks to the arch_mc1) . The problem is that the movie loads but the preloader doesn't play. Anybody has any ideas why?
The first screenshot shows the wssmain whereas the second (preloader2) shows the arch_mc1. If the fla files are required I will make them available for download.

I load my external image into emptymc which is inside mc_container:loadMovie("myimage.jpg", mc_container.emptymc); //placed on main timeline.This works fine. However when I go to a different frame within mc_container(specifically a frame without an instance of "emptymc") emptymc gets unloaded. As soon as I go back to a frame containing "emptymc" it no longer has the jpg.Is there a way I can keep the jpg loaded in emptymc without having to load it again?

View 1 RepliesI've been trying to load a simple .swf (home.swf) and have it play automatically on my existing fla project (as2). These are the steps I have taken.. 1) create MC, named "holder" 2) within first frame of MC, entered in.. loadMovie("home.swf","holder"); Nothing is showing, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. If you can help, I can send you the files I'm working with.
View 2 RepliesI am working on my first flash website and have been working on loadMovie & unloadMovie. The commands have been working for me and it will load & unload the external .swf in a contentHolderMC. The problem that I am encountering is the loaded .swf width is correct but the height is being reduced, I would guess to about 75%. Is there a way to maintain the external .swf's size? Even if I need to put the code into the external .swf.
I have tried creating a mask inside the contentHolderMC to match the size of the external .swf. When I have looked around for clues to the resizing, I am finding tutorials on how to resize the external .swf into a smaller Movie Clip. That's not what I am trying to do.
I have this problem: in my swf on frame 100 is a code:
Code:
loadMovie("second.swf", _root.clip1);
I have mc with isntance name: clip1 The movie second.swf loads into the position of clip1 but it's originally very big and I want it to make it smaller so it will fit to my site, if possible i would also like it not to be resizeable (so when someone will have smaller browser window it wouldnt move)
I need to be able to load the movies over the top of one another so that you can still see the movie under it....Can this be done ?????
View 8 RepliesI am using loadmovie AS2 function PHP Code:
stop ();blankmov.loadMovie("newmovie.swf") to load external movie in my main flash file and it works fine, except one problem which is the new movie that loads in the main movie becomes transparent so there is no background displaying in this new external movie. Is there a way to use loadmovie function so that new movie holds its background and it does not become transparent?
I'm making a game where every level is a separate swf. The problem is, when each level starts, it doesn't load entirely before displaying on the screen, and gives me unpredictable results. I also don't want load waits between each level.Is there some way to do all my loadMovie's at the start, loading them into some place where they wont actually be on the stage, and then calling them out one by one as you play each level of the game?
View 3 RepliesI'm having a problem loading a external.swf from another folder outside of my main.swf. This external.swf is being loaded into a empty.swf movie clip. It works when the external.swf and the main.swf are in the same folder, but when i place the external.swf into a images/folder and change the action toloadMovie ("images/external.swf", "main"); it no longer works. Did i target it wrong?
View 1 RepliesI'm not much of a flash programmer, and am a bit lost. What I want to do is the following. I'll have a SWF with two layers, which is being called from a PHP page on my site. The top layer is just an invisible button, and I'd like it to link to a URL that I provide from the PHP page. The bottom layer I would like to load a separate SWF file, whose path I can also provide from the PHP page. I have the URL and the SWF path working just fine in PHP, but I don't know how to pass those values to flash, or how to get loadMovie to work like I want it. Can anyone provide some guidance?
View 7 RepliesFirst things first, please don't recommend I change to AS3 for this. I know, but It's far too late for that and not my project to be dictating..So I'm loading some external swfs in with the loadMovie command, in the normal manner with a button:
Code:
on (release) {
loadMovie("swfs/example-1.swf", _root.container);
}
But what I need, is to wedge a preloader in there somehow. As the swfs are around 1mb each.I'm already using the following as a preloader for the main file, so an adaptation of it would be very welcome so I can co-ordinate the graphics.With this on frame 1:
Code:
var amountLoaded:Number = _root.getBytesLoaded() / _root.getBytesTotal();
preloaderText.text = Math.round(amountLoaded * 100) + "%";
And this on frame 2:[code].....
Im using AS2. Now, i got this trouble: when i load an external movie into the main one, i had some errors if i put it into a containter mc, with this code: Code: loadMovie ("movie.swf", containter_mc); The scroll bar not only move the movie.swf object, but the container_mc too... So, i just load the movie without using a container, with this code: Code: loadMovie ("movie.swf", 2); And suprise! now the scroll bar works just fine. But... How can i position the movie into the main one? Like: movie._x = 200; movie._y = 200; How can i do that in the right way? (Sorry, but my english its not good enough ha! )
