ActionScript 3.0 :: Make Main Movie Resume Playing After An External SWF Closes?
Dec 18, 2009
What I am trying to accomplish here is to have my main movie resume playing when an external movie is closed. I.E. How can I make my main know that the external movie is closed and to "re activate certain functions" and to resume playing?
Oh, not too sure if this is needed, but I am loading the external movie with an external preloader that loads the movie. The main movie loads, and external preloader, which actually loads the external movie. Again not sure if this effects anything.

I want to load six seperate .swf's into the main movie while the main movie loads too. So in simpler words, i want to be able to load all of the swf's the same time i am loading the main swf.

I have made a presentation in flash AS2. I have a main.swf and 14external .swf files and each has its own preloader.
I want that when main.swf plays, the external swf should starts preloading sequentially so that the presentation will run smoothly.

I am curious if there is a way to call back to the main timeline using AS3 after a video clip or audio clip that is being loaded externally, is done playing? For instance: you get to a page with a video on it, but when the video is done playing, instead of just sitting there, it automatically takes you to a new page (framelabel).

I am creating a full site in flash. The main movie has an empty movie clip in the middle of the movie to load external movies as the user clicks on the links. Everything has worked good so far as the linking has only gone 1 level deep. However, when I created a new external movie, and had buttons on it for another external page, but yet to open in the main movie, I can't get anything to work. Example.... In the main movie, the user clicks on the archive link, and the external archive movie is loaded into the main movie. Now, on this archive movie, there is a button on it that links to a another movie (say text effects.swf). However, when they click this button for text effects, I can't get it to load into the main movie clip and replace the archive movie that was currenlty there.

I've got a Flash file with a video symbol on the stage with the instance name 'videoPlayer'. I'm controlling video playback using the following script to play the video, check when it finishes, then resume playing the rest of the timeline:
stop();
var duration:Number = 0;
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
videoPlayer.attachVideo(ns);
[Code]....
I've then also got 2 buttons on the stage for pause and play. The pause button is working fine, with the following script attached to it:

I'm playing a song and syncing up some visual changes with that song. The issue is that in order for the song to play when I preview my changes to the animation, I have to start playing my flash project from frame 0. This becomes a problem when I am trying to sync to things that occur later in the song. For example, if I'm trying to sync something at frame 300 then I have to re-play the entire animation from frame 0 in order to hear the song at frame 300 and beyond.
Is there any way to get the song to play, starting from the correct position, regardless of where I start running my animation while developing? I could hack something up in action script to move the play head and play the song if it currently isn't being played but I'd rather not go down that route as there must be a simple solution to this problem.

I have a moviclip on the main stage with a stop action on the frame above. I want the movie to play ahead from that frame on the main stage after a certain frame is reached in the movieclip.
I tried using this simple function on the main stage;
if (_root.myMovieclip.signal._x = 100){
gotoAndPlay(win);
}
So when signal._x moves to 100 in the movieclip, the frame jumps to "win". However this doesn't work. I tried using a timer on the frame as well but it does not provide an accurate enough response.

Excuse the probably simple question but I'm just starting off with Flash.I have imported a few video trailers directly into flash and saved them as movie clips. I want to be able to insert these movie clips onto the main timeline and play them one after the other, repeating once they have all played. On the main timeline I have set a layer for each clip and a keyframe where the clip is inserted for each layer. When I go to play the flash file, it is showing the first frame from each movie file and then moving to the first frame of the next movie file. What do I need to do to make flash play the entire movie file in that specific frame before moving to the next frame where the next movie file is and playing all that movie?

I have a timer which times how long the game takes and I made a highscore function: if highscore < timer - newhighscore(); This all works fine. My problem is that I want to have the words "Your highscore" flash up on the screen if a highscore has been acheived or to just stay still if a highscore has not been achieved.
ActionScript Code:
private function getScore() {
trace(timer);
[code]...
I have text on my game over screen saying "Your highscore:" I exported them to a movieclip where they turn red and get bigger, the smaller. Frame 1 is plain stop(); Frame 2 to the last frame and the animation Last frame gotoAndPlay(2); These words will normally be plain but I want to be able to, from the newhighscore() function, play the animation for the MovieClip.

The movie clip is an actionscript movie which calls images from an external XML file and shows them as a slideshow. What i need to do is after the last image plays, stop the movie and move the main timeline to the next scene of the main movie. Everything logical in my brain is not working, and it may be that I have been staring at this project for too long but for the life of me i can't make this work.

I have found a generic recursive loop that stops/pauses all child movieclips. If I change stop to play in the code, it plays all child movieclips simultaneously. I want it to resume only one animation at a time. I want a generic recursive loop that resumes animation from last position (position it was paused) irrespective of whether I have paused on the main timeline animation or animations within child movieclips or animations within grandchild movieclips. (I have animations on main timeline, animations within lastFrame MC of maintimeline, and again within last frame MC of child's timeline).[code]...

- i have 3 separate movie clips (a,b,c)
- my main movie is (a) and when i click a button there, it will go to external movie (b)
- under external movie (b) there's a movie clip that includes my animation and content button
- if i click on the content button on movie (b), external movie (c) will pop up [ it will not replace movie (b) but will just overlap it, it's like a small pop up ]
i did the actionscript and when i'm testing external movie (b), it's working... it's showing/popping up movie (c) but when i tried it on the main movie (a), the movie (c) is not popping on the (b) err, sorry if it's a bit confusing / how i explained it. but hopefully somebody will get the idea. and it won't also return on the main movie (a) when i click on a link from the external movie.

I'm still a rookie in flash and I'm having a little bit of trouble with some actionscript. I've gotten as far as placing the buttons and assign the correct actionscript for them to work. Everything is working fine with the buttons activating the external .swf into a blank movie clip in the main movie. Ony thing is, I would like the external movie assigned to the first button to open once the movie is loaded.
I thought by using the same actionscript i used on the button {and removing the on(release) tag} and placing on the first frame of the main movie would help, but it doesn't.

my problem is that i need to make a reisze, cause the screen resolution for other users. My main and news movie works perfect, but the others movies re-scale everything bigger. The problem of the external loaded movie is: this movie needs the funktion:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
If i dont have this code inside the movie is not going to resize fullscreen into the main movie. Inside this movie im scalling photos and some mc's You can take a look what i mean under: [URL]
If you take a look to the bar where the Number of pictures (30) are you will see that the lower bar and the pictures is not going to scale to fill the full screen if i delete the this code;
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";

loaded an external swf (with audio) in a conteiner swf.
From the cointeiner I want to controll audio pause/resume.
I know the procedure to do this with a mp3 file, but I can't intercept the sound channel of my child swf...
this should be the code to obtain the sound position:
var soundChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var sound:Sound = new Sound(new URLRequest("SOUND.mp3"));
soundChannel = sound.play();
pausePoint = soundChannel.position;
But I haven't the mp3 path.... My mp3 is embedded into swf child. And I can't put actionscript function in child, because is haven't source fla.

I'm building a website, in which the 'Gallery Page' has a link to an external swf file, which is a scrolling clip of thumbnails.
What I want to do, is create each thumbnail into a button, which will then play a Movie Clip from a frame located in the Main swf file. (So basically, each thumbnail button is a small photo, will play that photo in a large scale as a movie)
eg.
thumbnail1_btn needs to go to main swf and play movieclip1.mc, frame 1
thumbnail2_btn nends to go to main swf and play movieclip1.mc, frame 2

I am a bit new to the world of externally loaded swf's. I am trying to load an swf into my main movie, and then access/control the movieclips within that newly loaded swf, but for some reason it is not working.
Here is a quick example:
this.menu.createEmptyMovieClip("myMovieClip_mc",this.menu.getNextHighestDepth()+1);
this.menu.myMovieClip_mc.loadMovie("\menu\standard.swf",this.menu.getNextHighestDepth()+1);
this.menu.myMovieClip_mc._lockroot = true;
trace(this.menu.myMovieClip_mc.option);
this.menu.myMovieClip_mc.onRollOver = function() {
trace("Hello?");
this.bounce(120);
}
Okay this code does sucessfully create the movieclip but my onRollOver function does not work, and I cannot access any of the movieClips within myMovieClip_mc such as option, it traces out as undefined.
