ActionScript 2.0 :: Swf Preloader Loads External Files A Little Bit Slower?
Apr 6, 2011
i am using this preloader to load load external swf files in my main.swf. it works great but it has a small issue regarding loading timing. when it gets to 100% and loads the external swf file the swf file as i suspect is loaded a little bit earlier than the % and when it shows up its already playing the 10th frame instead of the first frame. the code is below....
MovieClip.prototype.fadeIn = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this._alpha<100) {
[code]....

I need to make a preloader for a test project that is very diffirent and a little bit off-beat as it uses script that I have prostetuted from a variety of diffirent files, see[URL].. might take a while to load as it has no preloader and please note how it does load...), it scrolls the actual content of the site along the x axis in multiple speeds by using the following script 4 times for each layer/speed of content:

How can I create a preloader which does this? I have seen many examples of code to load an external swf, but never something that loads itself.

I have a preloader that loads an external .swf file. Preloader works fine, technically the external .swf loads fine, but the external .swf is scaled up so you can only see about 2/3 of the screen. I made the stage for the preloader the same size as the stage for the external swf. I used the HTML for the swf that gets loaded, and just changed the file name to that of my loader.

I just watched the AS3 preloader tutorial here, and downloaded the FLA to copy the AS into my project. Here is the AS...
Code: Select allvar l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
l.load(new URLRequest("splash.swf"));
[Code].....
The preloader works to load the 'splash.swf', but that SWF is a 36 frame long movie, and when it loads from the preloader, it's already at Frame 36, so you never see what was before that frame. How can I get it to load at it's Frame 1?

Lets say I have subgallery.swf file that loads jpeg images. And I have gallery.swf file that loads subgallery.swf.The jpeg images and both swf files are in the same folder.When I test gallery.swf it loads subgallery.swf but subgallery.swf doesn't load images. When testing subgallery.swf alone, it loads jpeg files.Is there any limitation or setting preventing external swfs loading other content?

I have an external preloader that loads the game that's hosted on And let's also say that game is amazingly ridiculously popular that it exceeded the monthly bandwidth limit of my free hosting plan on that server and my account gets suspended. Then what will happen when the Loader object calls load (new URLRequesI'm planning to upload a game to a distribution website and they strongly encourage that the games be contained in one single swf. But trying to do a internal preloader is shortening my lifespan.So I plan to maybe have the game swf hosted on multiple servers and if the primary server fails due to heavy traffic or the account got suspended then the player can choose to load from a different server. I'm pretty sure that's possible..

I have used flash for a while, but I've never been able to fully grasp the preloader, and how to write code for it. I understand the function of it obviously, but whether to put it on the movie clip or separate actions layer confuses me. I am trying to create a preloader with a movie clip that loads an external image.

have a swf that plays an flv in the flvplayback component. Currently, I have an external preloader that loads the swf, then once the swf is displayed the flvplayback component buffers. I would like the external preloader to also load the flv buffer. I had done it before it AS2 by having the first 50% of the preloader be the swf,and then have the flvplayback component invisible and have the last 50% of the preloader do the flv buffer.Maybe this is a crazy solution, is there a much easier and logical way to do this?My real problem is that my external preloader loads the swf and the preloader bar using the addChild method and I can't figure out how to have the swf communicate with it's sibling to update the progress bar on the progress of the flvplayback component.

just working on a website. Trying to load a simple swf movie into my mc holder. Problem is:When I preview the page on my desktop the external files loads. On the FTP server it doesn't. Why?I tried 2 scripts for an "onClipeEvent" on the empty mc holder but nothing workes.

Then I got recommended to use this script on an empty keyframe. It works but again, only offline. targetMc.loadMovie("floorplans/301.swf");

I am diving in to learn AS3 and converting my site over to AS3. The majority of my code is for my navigation in my main movie that loads external swf files. Here is what I have and I don't know where to start to convert it. I know I need to do this in steps. So the audio is not important now or my other swf files.

Everything is embedded in an HTML site. The HTML loads a preloader that then loads the actual flash movie. Inside this movie I created a few buttons, inside a scroll bar movie clip. I want the buttons to load a whole new movie inside the same html. The code I'm using in the button is simply:
on(release) {
loadMovie("new_movie.swf", 0);
}
The problem is that it works beautifully in the Flash movie tester but doesn't do anything when tested inside the browser, embedded in the HTML. I think the problem is that the HTML embeds as an object the first movie, the preloader for the menu movie, not the menu movie itself.

So i have a fake preloader going... doesnt actually preload, but just does the 'action'. my issue it gets to 100% way too fast. As its not really loading anything, how do i slow this down so its takes about 3 seconds to "complete loading?"

I'm using this code for my preLoader:[code]And it works fine as a preLoader in that it adds the animation and counts up the percent of the swf that's loaded but only for the images on my stage. My code calls in some external mp3 files and I want the preLoader to wait until the external files are loaded too.[code]S'all pretty straight forward, I just want to make the preLoader wait until the mp3 files are loaded too.

I broke it into about 8 parts. 1 being the "mainSWF". This one loads up, and has a preloaded on Frame 1. Once this is loaded, you get to a certain page, and it loads the first external SWF, inside of this one. This SWF still uses the backgrounds, of the "MainSWF". And when you get to the end of this SWF, it sends a "dispatchEvent" to trigger a function that unloads the current SWF, and loads the appropriate new one. THIS ALL WORKS!
What I am looking to happen, is have a preloader to load the these external SWF's. (Like I have on frame 1 of the "MainSWF".
I would like to have them on the first frame of each external SWF, simply because the first frame is a good frame to sit on while the loader happens. ANd the first frame of each External SWF is different. My MainSWF preloaded is working great, and its code looks like this[code]...

I have been playing around with this for few days and I am about to give up.. I want to be able to preload anythything thats being loaded to a certain MC. but I dont want to have to set any VARS in the file thats being loaded to indicate its done loading. I could make each swf thats being loaded give a var stating its done loading and make the loader gone.. but I want to be able to preload any swf.. mp3.. jpg almost anything that I load into the target.. Let me know if anyone has created something like that before..

I've had some trouble making a preloader for external .jpg files. The problem is in the onEnterFrame, I'll show you some part:
PHP Code:
loadjpg = function(mc,jpg) {mc.onEnterFrame = function() {trace("lele"); } }
that is just a part of the hole function, but I think it will be enough. It traces "lele" once, not when mc enters a new frame. I've also tried to call it with different ways like:
[mc].onEnterFrame, with (mc) { onEnterFrame() .
