ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloader Isn't Working - AttachMovie?

Jun 9, 2004

I have a problem with a preloader that isn't working, it works fine on other files that are loaded in the same way on the same site, the only difference with this file is a script that is at the end of the timeline which uses attachMovie to place some images.. the result is that the preloader doesn't show, there is just a wait and then the movie appears suddenly.

Mar 12, 2007

can anyone figure out this attachMovie problem?i'm guessing it's because i'm not using removeMovieClip, but then i'm not sure how i'd go about using removeMovieClip in an incremental way.in the following example, i have it setup with an mc on stage with an instance name of "holder":[code]man i screwed up before in a similar situation but i'm not sure how i came to a solution.

ActionScript 2.0 :: AttachMovie Not Working The On Web?

Aug 24, 2010

I've been battling this project, and finally got it all wrapped up and working, and was feeling pretty proud of myself, and then I went and posted the exact same .swf on the web and it doesn't work anymore.Specifically, there are a bunch of icons which are placed into the FloorMC which then attachMovie a copy of themselves into a LegendMC and UtilityRefMC, but they dont seem to be attaching anything when I run it through a browser.[URL](I'd love to attach the swf and fla to this message, so you could take a look at those, but apparently that would be crazy.) thought perhaps it had to do with me using _root, but I went through and changed them all out to _globals and _parents and it still no likey. Furthermore the Comment Box in the bottom left gets triggered by _root commands form all sorts of different levels, and it seems to work fine, both on the web and off.

HitTest Function Not Working With Attachmovie?

Oct 5, 2009

I can't seem to get the hitTest to work for my script shown below. I have tested using movieclips created on stage during design time and made to collide during run-time. hitTest works fine in this situation.
 
But if I use the attachmovie command and create a movie on stage during run-time, that clip cannot hitTest with other movieclips. The hitTest simply doesn't work.

The script below is basically, to create instances of enemymc, and it will fall vertically, hitting a movieclip target_mc which is placed during design-time.

var enemyTime:Number = 0;
var enemyLimit:Number = 20;
onEnterFrame = function()

IDE :: AttachMovie And Calling Nested Movieclip Not Working?

Apr 10, 2010

I have 2 nested move clips in this order.

mc_a (grand parent)
mc_b (parent)

[Code]....

Now, I have a button on the stage. I am trying to load mc_a on stage using the linkage, and trying to load an image that replaces c_inst.

I am using:

on(release)
{
_root.attachMovie("a_call", "a_called", 1)
_root.loadMovie("image1.jpg", _root.a_called.b_inst.c_inst)
}

But so far it only attaches the movie, doesn't load the image.

ActionScript 2.0 :: AttachMovie Function Not Working - Omitting Labels

Feb 10, 2009

The lineholder code below draws tickers on an axis for every 12th data point. It should also attach a year label every 12th data point. For this I have tried to use attachMovie. I've used it before and it's worked fine, but this code draws the line and omits the label (gives no error).

Code:
for (var a:Number = startPoint; a<_root.dataPoints[0].length; a++) {
if (b==12) {
//should attach date label
var myYear:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie("mc_dateLabel","mc_"+a,_root.getNextHighestDepth(),{_x:500, _y:300});

ActionScript 3.0 :: AddChild Not Working With Library Clip (attachMovie Migration)?

Aug 16, 2009

I'm having a problem adding a library clip to my stage I can do no problem if I have a testFLV.fla that has a library clip called test_clip with the linkage set to: com.attach_clips.Clip.
 
import com.app.views.mediaDisplay;import com.attach_clips.Clip;
public class FLVTest extends Sprite {    private var _mediaDisplay:mediaDisplay;        public function FLVTest()     {        this._mediaDisplay = new mediaDisplay(null);        var clip_1_mc:Clip=new Clip();        var clip_1_mc:Clip=new Clip();        this.addChild(clip_1_mc);        clip_1_mc.x=100;    }}
 
If I use the same concept in my mediaDisplay class, the clip isn't added to the stage.   Obviously it's got to be a scope issue since 'this' in the first examplerepresents the .fla itself but in mediaDisplay this doesn't have a stage object.
 
package com.app.views {
 import flash.display.Sprite;    import com.attach_clips.Clip;        public class mediaDisplay extends Sprite     {    public function mediaDisplay(attachControls:Sprite)         {            var clip_1_mc:Clip=new Clip();            this.addChild(clip_1_mc);            clip_1_mc.x=100;         };    }}
   
how I could 'attach' test_clip to the stage from mediaDisplay?

Flash8 :: Preloader Isn't Actually Working?

Mar 15, 2010

my preloader isn't actually working,trying to load the page on a PC with quite slow internet... The story is following - my preloader animation plays, but only after the whole movie is loaded, cuz I noticed a huge delay before the preloader was actually played... And then I used that flash speed testing thing (sorry, but I don't know how it's called) and it proved my theory... That's the code on 1-st frame, where preloader is:

Actionscript Code:
stop();var loaded:Number = getBytesLoaded();var total:Number = getBytesTotal();var percent:Number = Math.floor((loaded*100)/total);if (loaded == total){gotoAndPlay (2);}else{    _preloader.gotoAndPlay(percent);    //loadBar.percentage.text = percent;}[code].....

Preloader Stop Working ?

Jun 15, 2010

So, I'm working on a presentation/site that houses multiple sections being loaded in as individual swfs. I have each section shoot to a preloader frame first that is set (with PreloadAssetManager) to preload multiple FLVs and the SWF itself.If I select a new section while the current one is loading, it does the correct process of switching sections and shooting back to the preloader, but then the preloader itself just stops working completely. If I try to access any section, it just sits at a blank preloader. of thing.

ActionScript 3.0 :: External Preloader FLA Not Working?

Aug 19, 2009

I export all my stage assets to frame 1, so the external preloader FLA is the approach I've been using for a while to show the nice percentage before the real SWF is loaded. I've just finished with a project and I'm getting errors when the file is done loading.The file works fine as long as it's not it a Loader component (stand-alone SWF), but as soon as I try to get it in the preloader it gives me a ton of errors.

The only major thing I did differently with this project is that a number of classes have their own individual Event.ENTER_FRAME listeners and that *I'm making a lot of stage calls* from various classes to get locations and what-not. I'm thinking it might have something to do with the latter, since I used the stage width/height for a lot of the positioning (stage.stageWidth/2, stage.stageHeight/2, etc).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloader Not Working But LoadMovie Is?

Sep 19, 2009

I've got a strange problem with my new flash website. I've been able to code a preloader for loading in different .swfs into my main .swf file. This works fine locally and even when I simulate the download in Flash. But when I've uploaded it to my website the preloader no longer works. Basicly the swf file does load into the current swf but without the loading bar and percentage reading.

_root.homecontent.loadshowreel._xscale = 1;
_root.homecontent.onEnterFrame = function() {

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloader Not Working Correctly?

Oct 4, 2009

I am working on a website and I would like it to have a preloader.This website is scripted using Flash CS3 and AS2.There are two scenes, one is "preloader" the other is "tsh".roblem is, the swf file does not display while it loads, then after it loads it displays the preloader for a second and jumps right into the next scene. How can I make it load the preloader scene first, then preload the "tsh" scene? - I have put this code into "preloader"Frame 1:

Code:
var loaded:Number = Math.round ((_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*100);
mc_slider._x = -500 + (loaded*5);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloader Not Working For 35 MB Swf File?

Aug 15, 2009

I'm working on a glorified slideshow, it has a music track that is 3+ minutes long, pretty nice graphics, and transitions. I started builing in Flash and am halfway done... it looks great too !

Problem is, when I'm testing the preloader with the download profiler set to DSL - it crawls and at 1% and on, the soundtrack starts to play... by the time the download is at 42% its at least a minute into the soundtrack and it's in and out, coming on then cutting out but not starting over. Needless to say, this is not okay! I know it's a huge file. SHould I maybe export it as an mov and put it in a FLV player?

Professional :: Preloader Swf Not Working In HTML

Jan 31, 2011

I've made a basic RSS news feed widget with a preloader. When I test the preloader in Flash it works fine, counting to 100% and bringing in the widget proper at the end. This happens both if I test the movie outright or simulate the download.
But now I've embedded the preloader in an HTML file using swfobject 2.2, and the browser will only display the first frame of the preloader and go no further, ie it 'freezes' at 0%. When I open the actual preloader .swf file, it's the same - it just stops at 0% even though it worked fine previously when

I exported it from its .fla file.Weird thing is, if I bypass the preloader and embed the widget file in my HTML, it works fine. This is for an assignment however, and I need to build a preloader as part of the criteria.All files (ie the widget .fla and .swf, the html and the preloader .fla and .swf) are in the same folder. Someone advised me when I made a bitmap in the preloader into a movie clip to uncheck the "export in frame 1" box, so I did this. It didn't work. Then someone else advised me to make sure the textbox containing the percentage count was a classic textbox with dynamic text. I did, and it's still not working.

Actionscript 3.0 :: Preloader Not Working Online?

Aug 30, 2009

I have been on a hunt for weeks, on and off, but I can't seem to find a solution, or even a direction to look in. Long story short, I am using CS4, AS3, and I can not get any type of preloader to work when accessing it online. I have made my own, tried every example file I could find, but not one of them or the possible solutions I found for them will work.

The example files I have used all work from my computer, both by accessing the swf in a browser, or testing within Flash itself, but once I upload them they have all hit one problem or another. I have had the preloader not show up at all, and show immediately but not count down, depending on the type of preloader it is. The only amount of narrowing down I have been able to do is that I can make a preloading frame, but as soon as that frame tries to find out the % loaded of the overall movie, it stops working properly.At the moment I am simply using:

Code: Select alladdEventListener('enterFrame', preloader);
function preloader (e:Event){
if (framesLoaded == totalFrames){[code]...

I put a movieclip on the frame to show that something is happening, but I have not been able to successfully use code to allow for a loading bar, text %, etc.

Actionscript 3.0 :: Preloader No Longer Working With External Jpg?

Sep 4, 2009

i tried looking here with the keyword 'preloader', to find answers to my problem but I didn't.I'm a freshman AS3 developer....with a portfolio site to launch asap.

I have a movieClip in my library that is exported to AS (external jpg) - it is loaded separately from anything else in my scene (which is disrupting my normal preloader animation). When I simulate the download my preloader doesn't appear in my preview window, and I have no error message either. At first, not sure what the problem was I tried various preloader tutorials online hoping to find a solution.
I only realized later on that my preloader didn't work because of my external jpg.How can I make my preloader (code below) load everything altogether? (elements in my scene + external jpg)

PRELOADER (first frame);
Code: Select allimport flash.display.MovieClip;
