ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading External Movies With Preloader?

I'm made a simple preloader that works fine for my main movie. Now I need it to work when loading external movies.Below is the code I'm using (AS 2.0) for the preloader.

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
loading = _parent.getBytesLoaded();
total = _parent.getBytesTotal();
percent -= (percent-((loading/total)*100))*.25;

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 3.0 :: Flash Loading An External Image With A Dynamic / Custom Preloader

Feb 24, 2011

How do I use a dynamic preloader [say a circular preloader that I've designed myself and not the ProgressBar preloader] to load an external jpg. Obviously, the jpg would be contained within a movie clip, say, 'imageHolder'. In short, I'd like this dynamic preloader to load the external jpg into the movie clip 'imageHolder' placed within my swf.All that needs to be figured out is how to attach any dynamic preloader to load external pics.[code]

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

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.

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?

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.!

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Movies From Library Into Movieclip

Feb 5, 2011

I have a series of movies in my library (called page1, page2, page3... page87) and I'm looking to load the first one into a blank movie (called pageHolder).Using 'next' and 'previous' buttons, I then want to unload and load the next in the series of 'pages'. I'm trying to work out the best way to do this using addChild and removeChild, but not having much luck. I've read that the best way to do this entire sequence is to set up an array, but I have no previous experience with arrays.

Professional :: Loading/Caching Flash Movies?

Feb 6, 2010

Using Actionscript 2, I'm a bit new to all the scripting stuff.I have a loader loading a couple of flash movies like this:loadMovieNum("sound.swf", 1);loadMovieNum("logo.swf", 2);loadMovieNum("mainmenus.swf", 3);Those 3 movies I need to go to the main section of the site. However, I would like the loader to also load the remaining movies needed to further navigate the site, but without displaying them now  Kind of like 'caching' the rest of the site, so when the access is needed, there's no load time.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Swf Movies In On A Time Delay?

Sep 4, 2009

I have a rotating menu that when clicked rotates and loads in swf movies, OnClick.

The problem I seem to be having is that because the swf movies load in on click it seems to be causing the rotation of the menu not to run smooth.

Question: Is it possible to get the swf movies to load in once the action of the click has completed its action. some kind of 2 second delay before the movies load in??

what happens: you can click or mouse scroll through the menu, when you click, the action repositions the selected Item (ActiveItem) in the center and resizes larger. this works great, is it possible after this action is complete to then load in the swf movies???

to see how the movie runs at the moment this is the link: [URL]

you will see at the moment onClick the movies load straight away which makes the rotation not smooth when rotating around.

I can't seem to get the mouse scroll to work the same function as the click at the moment also.....thats for another day
