ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloading For Xml Slideshow

Aug 29, 2011

I have a swf file that opens with a full browser xml slideshow.I've noticed when I have a preloader on frame 1 for my file, it is 'completing' before the xml images have loaded everything else loads(a bunch of text and some menu items) but the xml slideshow images seem to be outside of the scope for my preloader.how I can tell my file not to play until all elements (xml driven slideshow, menu items etc) are loaded?

how would I go about preloading these images right before they can be accessed and so it doesn't screw up (i.e.) press back button too many times fast and the pictures don't animate..would it be something where I would preload every image separately and have if else statements.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Incorporate In A Xml Based Slideshow(slideshow.zip) To Show Image Loading Process?

Feb 6, 2008

I have created a pie preloader(preloader.zip) which is working fine. Same preloader I am trying to incorporate in a xml based slideshow(slideshow.zip) to show image loading process but some how I got stuck. I am new to flash. Suggestions are welcome.

1. How to solve the problem of preloader2. Is it possible to integrate everything in a movie clip (including AS). I mean no AS on main time line but inside the movie clip. It would be much easier then to to create multiple slideshows by duplicating mc and changing the xml file.

Preloading The Certain Frames?

May 26, 2010

i have my portfolio website which is a 1.5mb big flash presentation and i thought about making a preloader.the problem is that making a preloader for the entire site will take too long to load. i have tried that.

so i thought about making a preloader for each "page" or section of my presentation. for example- just for syneron, or just for m-systems (with each of them have a few diferent pages in the presentation, but their size is managable).

the problem is that i cant find anything is the preloader code that will let met control what frames to preload (for example, frames 100-200).

Preloading A Swf That Loads Xml?

Dec 19, 2009

I have a preloader that loads an external swf. That external swf calls an xml file that takes a few seconds to process and load the images within the xml.

My issue is that the preloader is "lying" to me when it reaches 100% because once it loads the external swf there is still a few second delay before the images within the external swf display.

Logically that makes scene to me because the external swf bytes don't include the bytes of the images that it calls for.

SO,...

How do I get the preloader to count to 100% only when the entire external swf and all of its contents are loaded in?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloading Both SWF's And XML?

Feb 15, 2006

I need both the XML and SWF to be fully loaded and available. The problem I have at the moment is that the swf loads and after a slight delay the xml content appears (this is more noticeable at lower bandwidths).I need for both to appear at the sametime. Is there a way of constructing a preloader that takes both swf and xml bytes together ie getBytesTotal for both swf and xml.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloading SWF's For 'later' Use ?

Jul 23, 2003

While the main movie is already visible and usable, I want to load some additional SWF's (not to large though, like 20-50kb) underwater... so not visible and they won't be appearing to people unless they click a certain button. It is not certain that people will actually go to view them, but I want to make sure that some parts are immediately visible (so already loaded), in cache so to speak.

Preloading Dynamic Images Using CS3?

Nov 11, 2009

I am currently building a flash site which uses dynamic images throughout using loadMovie("picture.jpg", mc_name) to load them into various movie clips. This all works fine and the site is starting to look good, the only problem i have is with preloading. I have the main swf file and everything contained within it preloading with a progress bar at the start which works fine. When the movie loads the main homepage image slowly fades in, however as the loadMovie("home.jpg", homepic) is on the same frame as the homepage, if you don't have the image in your cache then you miss the fade completely in the time it takes the image to load.

As a result i am wanting to preload this (and a few other) images during the initial preloader if possible, that way i can prevent this problem from occurring. Unfortunately from what i understand i can't run loadMovie from within my preloader actions as they're in a different frame so i'm really not sure how to do it, given the image is external

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloading Swf's And Jpegs?

Jun 5, 2007

First of all I dont really know if I posted this in the right section, because I don't really know what I'm looking for. I'm building a website that consists of some swf files and a lot of jpeg images. Now because this is a relatively big design the loading of the page can take some time and it doens't look good if you open it for the first time on a slower internet connection.

Now I do know how to build a pre-loader for a swf file, putting the pre-loader function on the first 2 frames of my movie and let it load from there. But because my site isn't all flash nor does it contain only one swf file I cant use this option.

Basicly what I'm looking for is a pre-loader that loads my jpeg images and my swf's before entering my website. Can this be done in flash?? (Or has anyone suggestions in what languages/scripts I should look for to accomplish this.)(Note that I must load multiple jpeg and swif files)

Actionscript 2.0 :: Preloading The 3D Carousel?

May 2, 2009

I followed the tutorial for the 3D Carousel, tutorials 1 through 3. (Great tutorial by the way) The main thing that I want to change about the 3d carouosel is how it loads. If I simulate the download for say a 3d carousel, the icons come onto the stage kind of at random intervals depending on how quickly it downloads each external image file. I was hoping that some sort of preloader (whether it be the basic one or the advanced one in the tutorials) would work to load the movie without seeing the icons pop in slowly on load. But Neither of them seemed to work. I even tried the "load an external SWF" tutorial and that didn't work either.

So instead I decided to modify the 3D carousel to not pull external images into the movie by reading the xml file as it currently does but to just create individual item movie clips for each item. For some reason, when I edited the item movie clips I lost the masker effect. I can't seem to figure out how to get the masker effect to start working again. I tried tracing the bitmap for the icon, or breaking it apart but that didn't work.

What things or settings are needed in order for the masker to work correctly?Is there a smooth way to preload the 3D carousel without seeing the icons pop in one at a time as it loads the external images?
