ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Small Swf Files On Run Time?
Apr 14, 2008
I can't figure out why this wont work consistently. I have a few containers in a column that load small swf files on run time. My code which always works in the past, looks like this:
Code:
client1.loadMovie("interactive/rocksolid_cs.swf");
client2.loadMovie("interactive/malibuchronicle_cs.swf");
client3.loadMovie("interactive/spod_cs.swf");
client4.loadMovie("interactive/chicknecessities_cs.swf");
and so on.
The issue is that sometimes, this works perfectly. I load the page and the files load. Then, randomly other times, only parts of the external swfs load. All of the external swfs have static text on one layer, then a rollover movieclip on the others. The times when it doesn't work correctly, usually the text loads, but the movieclips don't. I don't understand why this isn't working, but I need it to 100% of the time.

my preloader starts at 55 percent. this is because the first frame (if i can trust the bandwidth-profiler) has a size of 32 kb. i think this is strange, because the b-profiler also tells me the film has a total size of 35 kb. after the first preloader frames are some small files with transitions only, and then there is the main frame, which has a size of 18 kb my preloaderframe only contains a small bar and a dynamic textfield, just like the tutorial says... i ve already searched the forums, i found that quite many people have the same problem, but i didnt find any solution... i do not load any swfs dynamically. the only thing i can imagine that could cause that problem is the embed font which i use for the dynamic textfield in the preloader. is that possible?

I'm trying to build a small app that will iterate through an array of sound files to see if they are valid.I'm simulating corrupt sound files by taking .png's and changing the extension on them to .mp3 The idea is a sound will start playing and the timer will start. When the sound is done playing the next sound will start and the timer will reset and start counting down again. If a sound does not finish within 45 seconds the timer will complete, output the name of the file that did not finish, and then skip to the next file. For some reason though the timer does not reset when the sounds finish playing, it just keeps counting down from wherever it is.
Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.media.SoundChannel;

Using AS 3.0 and the action script project I was planning on writting a small file handeling utility to make processing files through AS better and easier. The problem is the API states that to call file you go
import flash.file
Well in flashbuilder going import flash. only gives me filter, and no file handeling imports....

I'm developing a little site for a friend. Though the filesize is v. small and it seems to load quickly, there is a delay playing. There are many objects duplicated in AS so undoubtedly this is the problem, but is there any way of initializing them so that the delay is slower? I'm using flash cs3.

I'm trying to load jpgs to my scrollpane dynamically.I noticed the compiled scrollpane component in flash 8 is very large in size (> 130kb) which i cannot afford to use. Instead I'm using the flash 6 scrollpane which is not precompiled and only several kbs after compiling to swf. However, I have problem rendering loaded dynamic contents onto the pane. The first load after starting flash 8 was always successful. After that, it fails. In case anyone's interested, I have simple test code to demonstrate the problem, and have uploaded it to http:[url]... (you'll need to wait for 10 secs before the download button appears on that linked page).I'm just wondering what is the best choice of a small size scrollpane that handles dynanimic MovieClip.loadMovie() well.

As part of my brief, I have to create a small flash movie that will load a random quote (which is actually a jpeg image), fade it in to view, display it for a length of time (probably only 3-5 seconds), fade it out and then load another random quote. Is this possible to do, purely using actionscript? I can randomly load an image - I used the "Random Background Image" tutorial on this site - but getting the fading/pausing/fading then moving to another quote has got me stumped.
The images are imported into their own swf file that is loaded into a placeholder movie on the html page. I tried adding in a for loop to the individual swf and the placeholder movie, to loop through alpha property of the image (just to fade up for the moment, till I get it working) - but this didn't work at all. I could use tweens for the fading, but this could end up a mess and more work than it needs to be as there could be quite a lot of quotes added over time.

i sort of asked this before but never got a clear responce to it. this is sort of a two part question. one i have a dynamic gallery of images with a small picture that you click on that loads a bigger picture. I would love to be able to just have one photo that loads into the bigger mc and also the small mc. right now what i am doing is making two size photos a small 47x47 and a large141x141. does anyone know how i can use the same photo for both mc's second question. if that works will it make the small photos take forever to load since their sorce is a large photo?

I udnerstand the basic concepts of the FLash Environment. What gets me is the action scripts because I'm not a coder I can handle the simple elements .Here is what I need it to do. I have a "dot" that shows up on the screen and when either mouseover or release, I need it to pop up a small "load Movie" to the left (which I have managed to do)...here's what it's doing and not doing.
1) it deletes the dot and doesn't bring it back
2) I have other "dots" and when they are pressed I need the one "loadMovie" file to go away and hte other to show up.
I have tried the gottoandstop the gotoandplay, all kinds of things and nothing works.

Im working on a site which incorperates several flash movies on one html page.
I realy want all these flash movies to start at the same time so they fade out in sync.
[URL]
I cant seem to find any command in flash to start a seperate flash movie playing but im sure that there is one.
I have thought about 2 ways of achieving this but am not sure which is the best way. The first is to have an extra movie that checks to see if the others have loaded then when all 4 have loaded it then starts them all at the same time.
The other way is to have each movie send a variable when it is loaded, then when all the variables are checked a start function is sent either via javascript or php.

I've got a swf which uses AS 3 to load separate audio (mp3) and video (flv) files. The reason they're separate is because the audio is just background music while the video is navigatable. The video kinda goes along with the audio, but it's not imperative that the two sync perfectly. However, the audio always starts playing before enough of the video has loaded to begin streaming.I'm at a loss as to how to get the two to at least START at the same time.

The component itself receives all its parameters from a .txt file. The editor is a read/save form that initially loads the parameters into it's form fields, and then overwrites the .txt file when the user hits submit. You then refresh the component on whatever website you have it to see the changes.Here's the php code that I found to get me going:
<?php //Capture data from $_POST array $title = $_POST['Title']; $comments = $_POST['Comments']; $image = $_POST['Image'] //Make one big string in a format Flash understand $toSave = "Title=".$title."&Comments=".$comments."&Image=".$image;

Our application has over 15 different top-level mxml files to create individual controls that are used in our pages. We are using Ant to do our automated builds, and are calling the mxmlc task for each mxml file separately (See question 78230 similar example). Running the compiler separately for each mxml file, however, is already adding up to a considerable amount of time. Our build time is approaching 10 minutes, 5 minutes for compiling our flex apps, and 5 minutes for compiling hundreads of java classes, building jars, installer etc. Each flex compile run is reasonably quick (15-20 seconds), but they add up.
Is there a way to compile all of them with one call to mxmlc?

I'm trying to use the Shared Library process for the first time with audio files and I'm not sure why it's not working. I've followed both processes from here:[URL] and have a library file called libTestAudio.swf with all the audio files set up right (see Flash file here [URL] My question is should the testAudio.swf ever grow in file size? When it has no content it is at 4Kb but when it has the shared library file added to the timeline it becomes 8Kb. Now this might sound small but I've tried this with much longer pieces of audio and the file size does get bigger for testAudio.swf . I was thinking that only the libTestAudio.swf file would increase in file size and testAudio.swf would remain at it's 4Kb size. Am i wrong there?

I'm writing a Flash game where the game levels are saved in small plain-text files, which I want to embed in the swf file. My current solution has a distinct code smell in its repetition, and I'm certain that there is a better way. My code is basically: In a LevelLoader class, embed all the levels
[Embed( source="levels/1.dat", mimeType="application/octet-stream" )]
protected var level1:Class;
[Embed( source="levels/2.dat", mimeType="application/octet-stream" )][code].......
There are a couple of problems with this approach: I have to add a line for embedding each level. Optimally, all files in a folder would be automatically embedded.A level can't be "prepared" from a string. I'd like to be able to pass LevelLoader a level number or level name as a string.I think that all strings are stored in memory rather than on disk.How could I program this "correctly"?

I have a question about loading external data. When I had all my actionscript export to frame one, it would slow down the preloader and not show up until it was far into the progress bar animation. So I moved everything to frame 2. The problem with that is now my menus which are populated from an xml file are not there when the site starts to play. How can I get my xml data to load on frame one, but leave the .as fils to load in frame 2?

Does anyone know of a way to track the load time of an XML document? I have an xml document that has over 150,000 lines and it takes a little time to load. I am ok with the load time in general however I would like to create a preloader to tack its process.
I have tried putting the xml load/onLoad code in a movie clip and use getBytesTotal and getBytesLoaded to track the mc progress but it seems as though when that mc is loaded the application freezes until the xml is fully loaded.
