ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External SWF With Button With Class?

Aug 2, 2009

I'm trying out a game from a tutorial for a project, and I'm trying to load the next game from within the first .swf by means of a button, in this case loadButton, when this MC displays on the main swf (this is the GameOver menu screen). The syntax seems fine and there are no errors displaying, but the .swf itself isn't loading.The startLoad function I'm having problems with is at the bottom. I've tried loading external .swfs before but that was without classes... this is my first try with classes so I'm not sure if I named the public functions wrongly or put the wrong codes in the wrong places, screwed up my public vars, etc.

ActionScript Code:
package

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External Swf Which Attached With Its Own External Class?

Jun 27, 2009

Lets say I have Main.swf and sub.swf, and I wanna load sub when I press a button from Main, but sub.swf has its own external class file attached, so here is the problem, when I load sub using loader class and I would get this message from the output panel:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at subScript()

seems loader class can not access sub.swf's external class when sub is being loaded.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading An External .swf From A Class?

Nov 19, 2010

so from using both my Actionscript 3 Bible and a friendly tutorial here on Kirupa... and another online, I attempted to create a class to load an .swf. I worked through the Kirupa tutorial, and it worked, but I wanted it to be in a class! This is where the problems come, when I run it, I get no errors, the bar flashes as if it's full, and it loads the content. When I try to simulate download however, the screen stays white and I receive an error

"Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2036: Load Never Completed."

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Class From An External .swf File?

Dec 11, 2009

My flash application has lots of resources which will change all the time. In order to keep the the user from having to download my main .swf file over and over again, and in order to keep the main file's size low, I would like to put the resources into separate .swf files and load them dynamically from a url using a Loader.
 
Once downloaded I would like to extract the classes that are in the resource swf and use them in the main swf. Can anyone share some code for doing this? Note that I am not just interested in using a symbol from the resource swf. I would like to use a class, with all of its methods and everything, and my main swf does not contain the class definition. Only the resource swf does.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External XML File From FLA To Class?

I have been searching for information regarding the use of loading an external xml file from a variable (string) that contains the location of the item and passes it to the document class.

I receive the following error:
Error: Error #2136: The SWF file file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/xmikxm0/My%20Documents/workingDocuments/freelance/brightStar/webSiteStructure/core.swf contains invalid data. at BuildSiteElements/::frame1()[BuildSiteElements::frame1:2]

FLA code:

ActionScript Code:
/* variables to load XML */
var BuildItems_obj:BuildSiteElements = new BuildSiteElements();
BuildItems_obj.loadSiteXML("templateBuild.xml");

fla is in same folder as class and the fla compiles the swf in another location (outside the folder and pulls xml from the xml folder).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External SWF With Its Own Doc Class Giving Errors

Oct 20, 2010

I am busy with a big project, for a brief outline, its an induction program kind of like a media rich slideshow done in flash (AS3). It consists of 10 chapters / modules, each module is a SWF with its own class file. Each module loads external and embedded videos and also mp3 sound voice overs at run time.

Each module loads and works fine by itself, but now the problem comes in where I am trying to create a main container swf to load and unload each of the other 10 module swfs, sequentially (ie first load module 1 swf, then when module 1 swf is finished, unload it and load module 2 swf etc)

I have researched for days and realize that when loading external swfs that have their own class files, problems arise because the external swf makes references to stage but it does not have access to the stage yet and I need to use something like this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, whateverFunction) in the constructor of the external file, and "... the loaded content must be on the Display List BEFORE any code in it referencing 'stage' is executed. " as quoted from Barbara Kaskosz's experiment on flashandmath.com. (I cant post links as I am under the 50 post restriction).

After trying for days with this and other guides I found, I still have not been able to successfully apply it to my projects files. If anyone would be willing to take the time for me to send them some sample files maybe my container FLA and two of the smallest modules and have a look at what I've done

My deadline is approaching fast and failing this deployment phase of combining all the swfs into one executable is like tripping at the finish line.

I am posting a link to my simplified and cut down files (for testing purposes) in hopes that someone may assist me. I also want an event to fire on the last frame of each of the modules, and for the main.swf to listen for it so it can unload the current module and load the next module.

dispatchEvent(new Event("loadNextModule", true));
//I think this should go on the last frame of the last slide of each module,
//then in main.as add a listener
addEventListener("loadNextModule", nextModule);

But would this listen for the event firing in an external swf?

I have deleted a lot of content in the modules to help with testing purposes, and simplified and made them only 3 slides each.

TL;DR : I have a container swf with a single movieclip that will contain external swfs that will load one at a time. Each swf works fine by itself, but I get errors when compiling the container swf because (I assume via research) the container swf AND EACH external swf has its OWN class file. In summary, I need the main swf to start by loading module1.swf, then when the user reaches the last slide of module 1, main.swf needs to unload module1.swf completely and then load module2.swf. You can traverse slides by pressing the 'right' and 'left' keys on the keyboard.

This is the error I am getting when compiling main.fla :

TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.
at flash.display: DisplayObjectContainer/addChild()
at main/loadFirstModule()
at main()

I am attaching what code files I can given the restrictions, if you still require the two external .fla files

ActionScript 3.0 :: Custom Loader Class - Loading External SWF In FLA

I've been trying to figure this out for the past couple of days and couldn't find a solution and Im sure its something I have completely overlooked on my part. I'm attempting to load in an external swf in my fla file using this custom loader class I created.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External Images Won't Work Within A Class

Aug 27, 2009

I'm trying to load external images in the usual way;

Code:
loader=new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest(_thumb));
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onLoadComplete);
private function onLoadComplete(e:Event):void{
thumb.addChild(loader);
}

But when it comes through to the onLoadComplete Function, I get a sandbox violation. I've tried using Security.allowDomain and a crossdomain.xml file, but it just won't work. Even more annoyingly, if I do the exact same thing, but within the main class file, it works fine.5 or so of these classes that need to load images are loaded from an XML file (which also works fine without allowdomain etc). Is there some sort of conflict going on because of there being more than one of them?

Professional :: Next Button In Array For Loading External Swf Files?

Jan 5, 2011

Someone here recently helped me immensely with a question I had about creating a previous button in my flash file that would allow the user to click on the button and view the previous swf file.  I'm hoping someone can help me with making the Next button now, too.

I have a movieclip that loads an array of external swf files.  I thought making the next button would be as simple as changing just a select few things to the previous button.However, that's not working.  When I try that, the movieclip doesn't even load the swf files.  Below is my AS2 code for my file.  I bolded the part at the end that is for the previous button.  Does anyone know how to make the previous button?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading External SWF Files With Button Click

Oct 14, 2009

First of all, right now I have 2 buttons, which are defined as buttons. Clicking on button1 loads swf1, clicking button2 unloads swf1 and loads swf2. Heres the basic code for that transition which is pasted ON the button...

on (release) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = "F2";
container.loadMovie("F2.swf");
} else if (_root.currMovie != "F2") {
if (container._currentframe >= container.midframe) {
_root.currMovie = "F2";
container.play();
}}}

This works like a charm, no problems. The problem I am having is that I need the button (which will eventually be a part of an animated drop down menu) to have more functionality. When I try to make a movieclip button, no variation of this code above will work to load the swf. I am totally lost. Here is the latest incarnation of the movie clip button code. This version is in the timeline, but I've tried variations directly on the movie clip as well

mc_HeightTest.onPress = HeightMovie
function HeightMovie(){
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = "F2";
container.loadMovie("F2.swf");
} else if (_root.currMovie != "F2") {
if (container._currentframe >= container.midframe) {
_root.currMovie = "F2";
container.play();
}}}

Why the code pasted on the button will not work when its used in conjunction with a movie clip button?
