ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Movies At Different Levels?

Mar 5, 2004

I have a bit of an actionscripting dilema... I am trying load a movie ontop of another movie, so they are at different levels. This I can do ok, its just that when the new movie is launched and sits ontop of the old movie the buttons from the old are still active and interfere with the top movie. I know I could unload the old movie underneath, but my problem is that I want the user to be able to close the top movie to go back to the bottom movie at the place that they left it.!

IDE :: Loading Movies From Different Levels?

Oct 1, 2009

I am creating a presentation which has a main flash and then 3 sub categories to it. Main.fla is nothing but a container to load the other movies into. I could get the the first movie (movie1.swf) to load onto main.swf by using the foll code:

this.createEmptyMovieClip("empty_mc",1);
empty_mc.loadMovie("movie1.swf");
empty_mc.x=0;
empty_mc.y=0;

Now the problem is in movie1.swf the menu is like on the 3rd level, i.e. main stage>menu_mc>menu (where the buttons are).

How can I add a code on level "menu" so that when I click button2 or button3 it loads movie2.swf and movie3.swf respectivley onto the main stage. Makes sense or am making it too confusing..

I want to try this breaking a big movie into smaller parts functionality so that I can understand flash more.

Can't Unload Movies On Two Different Levels

Jun 1, 2009

I am having trouble with unload an loading movies. Basically I am loading a movie into a container, which works a charm:

[Code]....

I want to unload them both when a close button is pressed on the third loaded swf? Also, ideally I would like to add that second movie clip into a container, so I can position it correctly, but when I try copying the code I use on the first, it doesn't seem to work...is it to do with the "root" bit perhaps?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using The Object Mc Properties To Movies Loaded In Levels

Dec 27, 2002

i have a movie that has 3 buttons on it..(and there r 7 of these button containing movies being loaded into my main movie...but this is not important in our case i guess.) anyway, each button loads a movie (they r draggable windows) into my main movie, located in different levels (not targets)..the problem is i want to change the alpha and depths of these draggable movies.eg;when i click on a button i want that draggable movie to come forward and set its alpha to 100 and the other two to 30..i could do this by loading the windows in target locations..but i can't do it when i load them in levels..

ActionScript 2.0 :: Disable Lower Levels Of Movies, But Not Remove?

Aug 18, 2004

I want to be able to have a movie in _level0. Then when user clicks on a button it will load another movie to _level5. But I want the lower movie to remain visible bit none of it's ruttons be active. I still notice the cursor turn to a finger when I move around areas that are buttons on layer below.

I have tried loading, then unloading lower level, but there is always a blank gap stutter. I have even tried spacing these load and unload commands apart, but no luck.

I have also turned the back graphic of the current layer in to one giant button, but I don't like the button cursor the whole time.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Sound Linkage When Loading Movies Into Movies?

Jan 16, 2007

I have an intro.swf file that is basically a movie with sound that is exported for actionscript but not exported in the first frame. I just stuck it in a movie on my timeline and it works great and the preloader works because it doesn't load the sound before the preloader. I use :

musicSound = new Sound();
musicSound.attachSound("music");
musicSound.start();
to play the sound in intro.swf.

However, now this intro.swf gets loaded into an index.swf and everything works fine and the sound plays as long as I have the sound included in BOTH the intro.swf and the index.swf and the sound is exported on the first frame in the index.swf. I was hoping I could remove the sound entirely from my index.swf since it already loads into the intro but so far

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Levels - SWF Not Going To 2nd Frame

May 16, 2005

Why my "nieuws.swf' is not going to frame 2 or not showing at all when I press the button with the second piece of code on it? The nieuws.swf has a stop on frame 1 and on frame 2. I can see it right away when I take away the first stop. I use the function playNieuws, to make it all happen.

Code in main movie, first frame:
#include "lmc_tween.as"
this.createEmptyMovieClip('hok1', 1);
with (_root.hok1) {
lineStyle(0.1, 0x666666, 100);
_x = 265;
_y = 216;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading And Unloading Moviesclips In Different Levels?

Sep 1, 2004

I've got a mainmovie.exe, which creates 4 emptymovieclips as containersall of the containers load an external moviethe one at the top with a menu/buttonsI'd like the buttons when clicked to unload all the containers and reload the original lowest level movie from a particular frame. then it'll go through the process of creating empty clips, and load each external movie againBut since I'm playing the movies in an exe. I dont know how to unload all the containers and start the root/lowest level movie from a particular frame of a particular scene.The main movie is called mainmovie.exe, it creates containers 1 - to 4 as empty ,movie clips.DOes its thing, reaches a particular frame and loads movies into into container 1 - to 3, and topcontainer. Topcontainer is the most important. It has the buttons/menu. WHen I put an "on release action" to unload all the other containers and gotoAndPlay root ->frame 2, it doesnt work. It unloads everything, but wont load goto And Play.I'm left with a blank screen.So frame 2 of root mainmovie.exe

_root.createEmptyMovieClip("container3",3);
_root.createEmptyMovieClip ("topcontainer",4);
setProperty("container3",_x,901.5);

I am apparently having problem loading a swf onto the proper level.

I then created a movieclip on layer two. I then try to load the swf into that MC on layer 2 and it doesn't display.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Individual Levels Before Play Them To Remove 1 Long Wait?

Aug 10, 2008

I am currently doing a project which involves quite a large swf file at the end. I was wondering if anyone knows a way that i can easily make it so that at the begging, when first loading up the flash, it just loads the menu and a couple of other frames, but when i go onto play the game, it will load each level just before you play it, so that the player doesnt get bored from waiting right at the begging for a while when they can wait 5 seconds before each level.

Im pretty sure ive seen this done before but im not sure whether it is preparing it in that time, or downloading it. I want it so that there will be a 10-20 second wait for the game to load up, then you go to the menu, press play, loads the next frame, or certain number of frames, you play that level, then it keeps on doing this for all the levels.

Loading External Movies Or Not?

Oct 31, 2009

I have always the argument with my colleagues which authoring strategy to use. I always attached to the idea of authoring several swf files, and have them all loaded to the main swf when needed. And than attach Preloader to each swf that I load.
 
Others think that it should be only one swf with one preloader. And have all the navigation to use scenes or goto actions.
 
So the advantage of using my strategy is that users will not wait too long for one movie when its being loaded. And its more convenient to work on several fla with each have its own layers, symbols, etc

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading External Movies In MX

Jul 17, 2003

I read the tuts on dynamic loading etc (the one about external stuff like mp3s, jpgs, swfs; and the one with the transitions). I'm messing around with it in MX and all works fine, except the problem I have is I cant check it locally! the bandwidth simulator and profiler doesnt seem to work with loading external content, the movie appears immediately.

So I tried loading the swf from the web (i.e. URL = file://[URL]) that gave errors "opening file" (the movie is there though). my only solution so far is to keep uploading my movie everytime I wanna check it!!! which is CRAP! I dont have a network at home, so cant really use those bandwidth simulators I saw on the sticky. basically I juz wanna load an external movie, and see how the parent movie handles it (i.e. progress is kept track of correctly, loaded notifications work etc.) how can I check all this locally?
