ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External Swf's Through 1 Loader?

Jan 9, 2010

when I run the code there aren't any errors stopping it from compiling correctly. However when I click on my buttons i get an error saying:

Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.

I'm guessing that I'm passing the variable off through the function incorrectly. I'd like it pass a string though so that I can pass the name of the file to load.

ActionScript Code:
function contentScreen(mcName):void {
var imageRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mcName");
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External SWF's Into A SWF Loader Style?

Nov 13, 2011

I've recently made the switch from as2 to as3 and am still struggling to get my head around one aspect in particular. I've managed to load one external swf into a blank file via the script
 
import LoadDisplayObject;  
var loader:LoadDisplayObject = new LoadDisplayObject("button_01.swf", true);
loader.addEventListener("displayObjectLoaded", onComplete, false, 0,

[Code]....  
 
.....however I'm struggling with the script to make a swfs load into a space when one of my 3 buttons is clicked....
 
My page currently has three buttons (button_01, button_02 and button_03) and in a local folder three separate swfs with the same names which I wish to load in, when the appropriate button is pressed. 
 
I have managed to get them to load in using a tutorial...however they load over the top of each over...far from ideal. From research on the internet I've found a range of different script...but I just can't find anywhere I can find script to make this work..hence why I have turned to here.
 
Any help much appreciated...thanks in advance.

ActionScript 3.0 :: UI Loader Content Scaling - Loading External SWF

Aug 18, 2009

I've devised a preloader using the ui loader and progress bar components in flash cs3. The goal being to load an external .swf into the uiloader and that has been achieved. I'm having problems with the scaling now. In my code I have set the content scaling to "true" and that isn't supposed to cause distortion of any type but it does. It squishes my external .swf in width wise.

HTML Code:
var imageURL:String = "portfolio.swf";
var imageURLRequest = new URLRequest(imageURL)
uiLoader.scaleContent = true;
uiLoader.load(imageURLRequest);
progressBar.source = uiLoader;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Difference Between Loading External Files Into Loader Component

Jun 11, 2007

Using the MovieClipLoader class, what is the difference between loading the external files into a Loader Component or into an empty movie clip. Will one be quicker? They both worked for me, but I've read using the Loader Component is better. Can anyone confirm this? I would think that avoiding components would make things faster/less file size.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Simple Loader Fails When Loading In An .swf Containing The Loader?

Jun 26, 2007

Sorry for the complicated topic. I got a .swf that loads in other .swfs. Rather than figuring out how to make a loader for loading .swfs I thought I'd just use a simple loader in the .swf I'm loading.

However, it doesn't work. It starts fully loaded but doesn't finish. Heres the AS:[AS]_root.stop();
PercentLoaded = _root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal()*100;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load External SWFs, AddChild(Loader) Versus AddChild(Loader.content), Etc?

Jul 29, 2009

I have a main "shell" swf which, by clicking several buttons, will load/unload various external swfs into a Placeholder_mc which resides on the main timeline in Shell.swf In the documentation and tutorials I've seen a couple different methods, and I'm not sure I quite understand the difference, or at least the reason you would use one over the other...In the 1st method, you can just add the Loader object using the addChild() method:

Code:

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
Placeholder_mc.addChild(myLoader);

This will apparently add myLoader to the display list once it has completely loaded.The 2nd method, you supposedly can add the Loader.content; however, it appears you can only do this once the content has completed loading, so you need to incorporate an event handler with the contentLoaderInfo object:

Code:

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);

[code]....

What are the pros/cons of adding the entire Loader object, as opposed to the Loader.content and vice versa?

Actionscript 3 :: Prohibit Users From Loading Swf Files By Flash Loader.load() And Only Allow Loading Images?

Apr 1, 2010

I want to have an AS3 app load images from url supplied by the user. But I don't want a malicious user to be able to load an SWF file in place of the image, such as with an altered extension "maliciousSwf.png". Well, not sure how big a security threat that is above and beyond the ability of the hacker to decompile swf, but I think that ideally such behavior should not be allowed.

So, is there any way to prevent this? When people allow users to load images in their Flash apps, do they somehow guard against loading of SWF? Or is this really absolutely no big deal?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loader Keeps On Loading?

Jul 30, 2009

I've set up a swf with three buttons and when you click on one it loads a different swf and places it into a movie clip. If there's already something in the movie clip it removes it and then replaces it. The problem I'm having is if one of the swfs is very large and for whatever reason someone clicks on a different button where the swf is smaller it will load the smaller swf but continue to download the larger one and when that finishes it will load on top of the smaller one.Here is my code:

ActionScript Code:
var home:MovieClip = this;
var ldr:Loader = new Loader();

Actionscript 3.0 :: Loader Keeps On Loading Same SWF Over And Over

Feb 18, 2011

I have a flash animation made on the main timeline of the SWF with a couple of layers, some functions and some keyframe labels. For example, i have a movieclip of a star that come across the screen and then trigger a dispatchEvent for the main timeline to go to frame label "next".[code]That SWF alone works perfectly. Problem come when i try to load this SWF into another one. What happen is the loader keep reloading the SWF over and over, overlapping them and the actionscript that's on the main timeline of the loaded SWF is ignored, the timeline plays continuously. Here is the code i use to load the SWF.[code]I have found a workaround by putting the entire animation inside one main movieclip and put that movieclip on the main timeline (one keyframe, one layer, no actionscript) and then load it. That way it works fine but it feel more like a patch than a solution. I would really like to know why it's bugging when you try to load an external SWF that use the main timeline with multiple layers, keyframes and actionscript.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading A SWF Into The Loader Of A Third Party?

May 4, 2009

I have a Master SWF that has several buttons on it's stage.These buttons each load a remote SWF of a clickable graphic into the Master movie's upper left hand corner. Inside these loaded clips are several clickable areas that I would like to use to load yet another movie into the bottom half of the Master clip ... so, it's loading a remote SWF onto the stage of a third party.I'm having a simple targeting problem. I'm not quite sure how to call a movie to load into a loader on the stage of a different movie clip. I'm using "parent" ... but i got something wrong:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading / Unloading From Loader?

Mar 28, 2011

Part of my UNI degree is covering AS3 and I'm having to build a game using Flash.

I have hit a problem trying to load a new SWF after unloading the current one that is auto loaded at runtime using the loader. I have a button in the 1st SWF that unloads the current one successfully but I'd now also like to get that same button to load up an alternative one.

My host file has the following code:

import flash.display.Loader;
var startGame:Loader = new Loader ();
addChild ( startGame );
startGame.load ( new URLRequest ("interface.swf"));

My loaded SWF ("interface.swf") has the following code to unload it when required using the button:

function closeInterface(e:MouseEvent):void {
MovieClip(parent.parent.parent).startGame.unloadAn dStop();
}

how to load up the next SWF at the same time

When I go from scene 1 to scene 2 and load the movie, there is a 4 - 5 second delay before I get my Loading text. The file then loads rather quickly and the video file plays. I know this is a big file to load into memory from a CD, but would like the "Loading..." to display immeidately, so the user will know what is going on. Does anyone know why I am geting this delay or how to overcome it? Again, this is not an internal job or running from a web server. It is loading on a local client from a CD ROM drive.
