I have a main movie (let's call it Movie 1) with a menu in it. Through that menu you can load several external movies into a container (lets call them Movie 2 and Movie 3).What i want to do is this:When i load Movie 2 into the container in Movie 1 at some point of the timeline of Movie 2 there is an actionscript that tells to load Movie 3 in the container of Movie 1.

I have a flash Project, and I have external SWF's that are loading and unloading into my project. However I need the external SWF's to be under certain layers. What I would love to be able to do is load my external SWF's into a MovieClip that is already residing on the layer underneath those items. However I have no idea how to do this.
I have the files here. Pretty straight forward, the main SWF("mod_loading_2.swf"), loads and unloads the other two SWF's("m-1_intro.swf", and "m-2_WIB.swf"). There is a layer named loader layer, and I would like to load the external SWF's into a movieClip on that layer. The load and upload code are in the main SWF
How do I load these SWF's into a MovieClip on the timeline?
I have a setinterval thats playing up i am trying to load a external swf into the timeline after .5 seconds it works fine but it just keeps recalling the function, I just cant seem to clear the interval.

_parent.play();
_parent._parent.fadeOut(7);

Let say i got two movies: main.swf and moho.swf. What main.swf have inside is only one frame with a couple of graphics. And moho.swf (btw, did in Moho, u know the 2d animation software where u cant use AS.) that have 80 frames.So simple, what i need is to load moho.swf on main.swf. I already did that. But i want to be able to control moho.swf timeline so when moho movie reach its last frame (80) then go to its frame 60 and then again 80, and loop.
View 1 RepliesDoes someone have a working fla to illustrate how to load an external movie and zoom and pan to specific location of this movie (with easing)? With actionscript, not necessarily with a control for the user. I am looking for it for some time and unfortunately my programming abilities are not yet sufficient to find it out from scratch (but I am working on it).

Code:

The movie appears to load, as it appears on the stage, but it throws the following error in the debugger on frame 1:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
Additionally, I'm getting neither the result of function loadingError or function finishedLoadingFunction.

View 9 RepliesI have a main flash file that I load various external swf files into. On the first frame of the timeline, there is an intro swf loaded that basically welcoming the viewer to the site. What I want to do is have this load, play and unload and then go to frame two of the timeline where the main home section of the flash site is located.One my first frame on the timeline I have:loadMovieNum("/IntroMovie.swf",1);stop();n the external IntroMovie, I have unloadMovie (1); so the movie will play and then unload itself. What I can't figure out is how to get the timeline to go to the next frame once this movie is finished playing and has unloadedIf I don't put the stop in there, it simply skips this movie and goes to the next frame on the timeline and loads the home movie swf file.Is there a way to use some sort of if statement, that if the movie is unloaded, goto the next frame, sort of like this:if(code to verify if movie is unloaded);gotoAndStop(2);
View 4 Repliesi think i may have a challenge for you. I would like to have a flash movie load to a random keyframe in a timeline when the page loads. Basically, i'd like to set up a timeline with say 10 movies. When the page loads, i'd like the flash to randomly select from some predetermined keyframes (obviously where each movie starts) and when that movie ends, jump to another section of the timeline. This way, the loading of the movies is somewhat seamless and it looks like i've made 10 different flash movies.
Even if it's not possible to all load from the same timeline, i'd like to have it play the first movie, then when it reaches an ending frame, it loads another random movie from a directory on the server, and then keeps going and going until it can't stand it anymore.
I have just finished reading a few chapters of an AC3 tutorial book, and have tried a bit of code. Im trying to code something that loads movies, external swf files in to my main movie in a specific order. But after playing about a bit I realize that I cant even seem to load one movie, much less several in a specific order. how do I load an external swf movie with AC3?

I am building a flash website and on one of the pages you can play a shoot'em up game that I made using flash.
I am doing this by dragging the swf file into the flash website.This works but when the games is activated it does not work propably anymore in the new flash website..
I can't figure out why. The swf works fine on its own in a webpage and has been sitting on a website of mind for years with no probs.
I have the following problem: I have a small swf with 2 frames that brings weather data from [URL]. There's this script in frame 1:
[Code]...
Movie A: plain flash with loadMovie("movieB.swf", _root.myTarget);
Movie B: Complex flash with lots of actionscript.
The problem is that Movie B's actionscript uses a lot of "_root" which means when Movie B is loaded into a Movie Clip in Movie A all the "_root." actions won't work.
Is there a way of writing a relative path? so that Movie B works if it's opened directly, or if it's loaded inside of Movie A?

I am trying to load an external swf into a movie clip.Within my index.swf file I have a button that when released loads another swf into a movie clip within the index.swf. I have done this before and have no idea why it is not working. When I publish the movie I get no error reports.Here is the script:
on (release) {
_parent._parent._parent.contents.loadMovie("apache .swf");
}
All swf files are within the same folder on the server as well.

I have an external swf load when one rolls over a movieclip. That works fine. But I also want the external clip that loaded to go away after they roll off of that. This is what I have for code:
ActionScript Code:
movieClip.onRollOver = function(){
emptyClip.loadMovie("external.swf");
[Code]....
It looks like I can't just address the instance of the emptyClip for this. What do I address to create an onRollOut command?
I have an xml photo gallery which i'd like to embed in one of the tabs of my sites. I've tried to do this by loading the external .swf file into a movie clip which i called empty_mc, using the following code
ActionScript Code:
var empty_mc:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(empty_mc);
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("main.swf");
empty_mc.load(url);
When I load the .swf on its own, the photo gallery works fine, yet when I try to load the swf via the movieclip, it gives the following error message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference at main()
(All of the relevant files are in the same folder)

What do I have to change so it doesn't load the whole movie but only the scene it's in, I don't want to load everything at the same time... And if I load a external swf in my movie does the loadBar load this or do I have to put this script in the external swf file.
I am loading external *.swfs into a blank movie clip that sits in the main timeline of the master movie using the following code: _root.loadMovie("module1.swf","container");
