ActionScript 2.0 :: MX Preloader Doesn't Work When AttachSound Invoked?
Apr 14, 2004
I have a splash page.
I had a preloader which worked great before I added the sound (a WAV file) and I used attachSound.
Now the preloader doesn't work anymore!
I have tried putting the attachSound action on the main timeline, in the movieclip, in its own movie clip, EVERYWHERE! All to no avail.

For this website I've put a preloader on the 1st frame and the site on the 2nd.I've tested the site after having created a small animation which makes appear the main menu, a logo and an image.Everything did work good, so I went on building the site.Now that I have created some pages I've tested again the whole site and the preloader doesn't work anymore.Testing the site on the "ctrl+enter" window and simulating the download I have a white background (both the preloader and website background are yellow) then I see the preloader for a fraction of second and suddenly the site appears.
Publishing the site on my web space the background is correctly yellow, but the preloader doesn't appear, the browser's loading bar stops at half then the preloader appears again for a fraction of seconds and suddenly the site appears (tested on Firefox, IE, Opera, Chrome and Safari, same behaviour with all of them).It looks that the preloader is become part of the site and that there is an invisibile preloader.The setting in: Publish settings -> Flash -> Script Settings -> Library Path -> Default Linkageis set to "Merged into code"the same happen if I set "Runtime Shared Library" and "Custom Preloader Loop".

I've tried to create a preloader in frame 1 which shows a small animation while the site loades. But it doesn't work as it actually loads the entire site before showing frame 1 which kinda takes the idea out of the preloader.
This is my code:
stop();
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loading);
[code]....

I've just made a 2'nd version of my portfolio: [Code]... with xml used to read the content & i have several problems that i can't fix.
1: The site works well only in InternetExplorer. In all other browsers, jpg files are not loading correctly - they should fade in when the button is rolling & fade out when the button is rolling up, but they doesn't. Thare are also preloaders for each artwork & they doesn't appear (excepts IE). 2. The main preloader doesn't work correctly (even in IE) It appears, when about 80% of the site is loaded :S I don't know what to fix to the site to work correctly in all browsers.

I created a preloader. When I test it in Flash CS4, it works fine. When I upload the swf files to my server, the preloader doesn't work. I put both swf files in the same folder.

I have a preloader which loads an external swf. When I test locally, everything works fine, but when I test remotely: Preloader runs.External swf doesn't load into preloader. I am using the contentPath to load my external swf, and the only as2 I am using is: on (complete) { this._parent.loaderPB._visible = false; this._parent.mcbgdloader.visible = false;} to hide the progress bar and graphic used in the preloader.
I hope I provided enough info. The preloader is a regular fla and the external uses screens.

I have a menu which attach movie clips from the library, when I first probed the preloader there were not any linked movie clips, neither png files (because each button in the menu attach a picture which is inside the movie clip) now that I have put the movie clips in the library the preloader doesn't work and I don't know why.

I tryed to do this several times, and it didn't worked. The main problem is that if I test simulate the movie (56Kb) the preloader doesn't work. First it loads the entire file, then it loads the preloader which is not needed then, and the 2nd scene after that.

I decided to try to use setInterval for myanimation, which is just a mouse trail.However, I'm trying to get teh mouse trail to be a dynamic mask.In my previous swf this was achieved by using a holder mc with the animation inside and then using this as the mask. But this time I just canpt seem to hit on the right way to get it to work. The code I am using for the mouse trail is:
Code:
var i:Number = 0;
var myInt:Number;
var t:MovieClip;[code].....
in the function, but now the trail doesn't resize and the mask still doesn't work.

I have a button object that I need to scale to align with the variable width of an array of images.However, when I set the width in code, the button does not actually become that width. Tracing out the width gives me the correct value, but on screen.. it's off.
I've proved it to myself by scaling the same button object manually in the properties pane and visually comparing. Both of the buttons below have a width of 410.
Code:
navigatorDown_btn.width = 410;
navigatorDown_btn.x = (stage.stageWidth/2)-(navigatorDown_btn.width/2);
trace(navigatorDown_btn.width); // output: 410

I have the following code:
PHP Code:
var soundPlay = true;var mySound:Sound = new Sound();mySound.attachSound("mySoundFile");
Does the above load my sound into my SWF file? This is what I want.

Let's say i got Movie A, which loads Movie B at some moment. And let's say that Movie B creates a sound, lets say:
var sndMusic = new Sound();
and then attaches it...
sndMusic.attachSound("music");
[Code]....
well, when i open Movie B alone, the music plays; when I watch it while being included in Movie A, it doesn't... BUT the sounds that are simply added by dragging and dropping on a keyframe DO work on both cases. I believe it's sth related to attachSound...

I have created a Flex custom preloader, exactly like it is done in this example: [URL]
Now when I implement this, is seems to work fine on my computer in FireFox and Chrome. I publish it on the server, refresh my cache and reload the application and I do get my customized preloader.
But on a friend's computer, the screen stays white for a while, and then for a second or so it shows the preloader, but the indicator is at 100%.
So the loading already happened before it showed the preloader.

I'm using the code below on preloaders.[code]It doesn't always show all of my preloader, ie: by about 25% of the preloader animation it jumps to the movie. I still want the preloader to play all the frames before it goes to the movie regardless of download speed. Also sometimes it sticks on the final frame of the movie for a few seconds and then jumps to the main scene.

For some reason the preloader for one of my games doesnt come up until the game is about 95% complete so it is just about useless.

I have the bar, barbkdg, and text box all on frame 1 in different layers.
in frame 2 is a motion tween.

Are there issues with using attachSound to sync sound clips with Movie Clips? I currently am having this problem. I have all my sounds in a separate swf (sounds.swf), then I call the sounds like this:
Code:
gear1_btn.onRelease = function() {
logo.gear1.play();
sounds.gearssmfx.start();
}
I build the movieclips with the sound on the timeline, so that I know they sync up. Then I remove the sound from the movieclip, and actually play the sound with the AS above. The above AS should play the same in the browser, but doesn't. The problem is that the movieclip animations often run slower in the browser than they did within Flash. Is is possible that the movie is running at a slower FPS in the browser? I have noticed that it runs slightly slower in Firefox than IE. I'm currently using 32fps.
Here is my development : [URL]
Specifically, I'm having problems with the gears next to the letter "S" and "0", click on them to play.

1.Music player with an array of 3 songs;
2.The music player LOOPS one sound taken from an array of 3, and the sound is attached with attachSound method.
3.There are 3/4 buttons: Previous sound, Stop, Pause, Next Sound. With "previous sound" and "next sound" i actually mean next sound in the array.
So...I'm a bit "stuck" on managing the loaded and attached sounds, aka how to go to next sound, how to go to previous one etc.This is the code i've been able to write down:
Code:
var soundFiles:Array = ["9052_ok.mp3", "Glimmer_ok.mp3", "Loop_9095_ok.mp3"];
function playSound() {
var my_sound:Sound = new Sound(

I've made a simple preloader to load a movie. This is the preloader code
[Code]...
I see the loading progress percentage correctly run, at the end rotator_mc and counter_txt are removed from the stage, but the loaded movieclip is not added to the stage, or at least I can't see it.

this is the code of my preloader:
ActionScript Code:
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
loader.load(new URLRequest("Solar.swf"));
[Code]....
When i test the movie the background image is loaded, but when i simulate the download ( so as to check how the preloader works ) the image "NightSky.jpg" doesn't load and there is an error in the output panel.
This is the error:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2036: Load Never Completed.
All the files and the image are in the same file on my computer.

I have a new dilemma concerning external preloaders.Now I found out that sometimes external preloaders don't wait to load the entire swf file before this last one runs.I understood the concept and I applied both explained methods, but still couldn't find a solution: the swf file runs before the preloader finishes to load.This is my code (useless) so far:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
var myLoadedMovieClip:MovieClip;
var contentLoader:Loader;
[code]......
