Flash Load ALL Scenes Of A Movie Or Does It Load The First Scene And Then Load The Other Scenes?
Jun 2, 2010
I am working with a project that has many scenes. Each scene has a movie clip attached to it. The first scene is simple...just a couple of buttons and that is it. My worry is that when I add all of the videos that correspond with each button and publish the SWF will be a huge file. THE QUESTION: Does flash load ALL scenes of a movie or does it load the first scene and then load the other scenes when the user needs to view them?
My ultimate goal is to just have the first scene load and then when the user clicks on the buttons contained within that scene that only upon release does the corresponding scene load. Maybe I am doing this completely wrong and should look at doing it another way.
whenever I set my sound to stream and continue to make a movie with multiple scenes. The audio and video get disgustingly out of sync sometimes even off by 30 seconds. I just started an animation its only 10 seconds long with two scenes and the AV is already off by about 5 seconds. Ive worked around this by avoiding scenes altogether but i really don't want to have another 5000 frame scene. I discovered this problem in Flash MX and Im quite annoyed that it still has't been fixed 3 years later!
I have 3 scenes in my flash, so when I run the movie it goes through all scenes, however I have a button which send you to the next scene.
When he is not pressed I want that just first scene( in my case Scene 1 ) is looping. I mean I have 30 frames in Scene 1 and when it is on frame 30 I want to go to frame 1 of Scene 1.
i do not possess any knowledge in using of scenes and i got a proj which requires me do so and i been using the alpha-ing and tweens to do the button switching its really tiring and confusing
so can anyone enlighten me on how to use scene to do switching of 1 scene to other along by using a 'next button' and 'previous button'
I would like to make when I hit a button,It starts playing another scene and frame number. nIm useing gotoAndPlay(100); right now for my script. how do you change the scenes names?
How can I load/unload a movie located on the main scene, from a movie clip, or vice versa. Right now I can only load/unload a movie if located in the same timeline.
I am pulling double duty with this question as it serves two purposes. I am developing a total flash controlled ad system for myself, but also need to use the same theory for a project for work.
Concept: I have a main movie (ad rotator system) that I then want to randomly load other swf's (individual ads) into this main swf after a set period of time. The random load I got set no problem. The problem I am having is to get it to move to the new Frame label of the main movie which then loads the smaller swfs. I am using the LoadMovie with nInterval time delay command in flash to load the movies.
I want to load a movie loadMovie ("target", _root....) and so on. My question is can you target a specific scene in the load movie command?? I have a movie with a button that loads a new movie into level 0 so it replaces the first movie. Now in the new movie I have a button that unloads the new movie and loads the previous one. But it starts it off at the veru beginning of the movie. I want it to pick up where the first button click took place.
I wrote this AS for my preloader which schould be able to load a movie clip after pressing a specif button in the main sceene:
[Code]....
1) The problem is that to be able to target a movieclip I will need to give it a instance name. Where can i find this function in MX ?
2) I cannot understant how I schoul put a loadBar being a small movieclip on the main timeline, I think( the same timeline the container clip is at ) or maybe not ? well I am bit confused now..
Well I have done already a sceene preloader for my site and it works perfectly and i did not experience any problems as Im having now with this new kind of preloader.
I have an interactive story divided into scenes. At the end of each scene a button appears. This occurs on a frame on the timeline.
There are two different buttons that might appear based on whether a prior scene has been viewed or not.
For example, there are Scene_1 and Scene_2. At the end of Scene_2 one of two buttons will appear. The buttons will be either "Go see Scene_1" or "Return to Main Menu".
If the user has already seen Scene_1, Flash will know that and automatically go to the frame in Scene_2 that contains the button "Return to Main Menu".
Conversely, if the user has not seen Scene_1, Flash will know and automatically go to the frame in Scene_2 that contains the button "Go see Scene_1".
I imagine there would be an action frame at the end of Scene_2 that will contain the as2 code to enable this action.
Perhaps something like, but probably not at all like the following:
if ("Scene_1", last frame == true){gotoAndPlay("frame#");}else{gotoAndPlay("frame#");}
An IE issue has me completely stumped. I have a coldfusion page that uses JQuery's AJAX .load function to load in a new flash file that is generated by coldFusion's cfchart tag. This works completely fine in firefox: the new flash file and new html elements load. However in IE: all of the html elements that are geneated with the flash object are loaded, except the flash object and embed tags do not show up at all after running an ajax call in IE. After looking in Fiddler, the flash application type response data doesnt even show up for IE. It does however for Firefox.I thought maybe it has to do with any kind of media, so i changed the chart type to output as a jpg file instead of flash. And it loads completely fine in IE. So something is preventing IE from receiving the flash response data.Here's what i've done so far - and no luck so far:
Added to the HTML header: <META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="NO-CACHE"><META
I need some help? Anyone experience this problem before with IE8 FLASH bug? Can not get this to work on all subsequent refresh to the flash. I have a flash piece which simply renders only on the first initial load. After that, if i refresh or visit the page, it does not load correctly. It seems I am having this problem with the swf only on subsequent loading of the page or whenever a refresh happens.
i'm having this weird pb i don't understand, could someone help me? i'm driving crazy here..what i do is load a movie from a movie but the 2nd movie load a variable. when i test the 2nd movie, it loads its variable and displays it as wanted, but when i load it from the 1st movie, the 2nd movie loads but seem not to load anymore its variable..
I made a movie that has two scenes. It is an intro for a website. I want Scene 1 to play through once, stop for a few seconds, and then transition into Scene 2. Scene 1 is like a cute little "loading" sequence that takes only about 2 seconds to run. I would like Scene 1 to then make a slow-er, smooth transition into Scene 2. I would then like the movie to stay on Scene 2 and continue looping only Scene 2 until the user presses the "Click to Enter" button.
If i have created an animation in 'scene 1' on flas, and i really want this animation to be in a movie clip, is there any way i can transport the contents of scene 1 to a movie clip held within scene 1? (the animation only has one layer)
I added the snow effect to one of my movies, it plays from the time you add the action script, to the end of the movie. I only want it to play in certain scenes, is there any way to do that? [URL]
I'm writing a simple game with Flash and I need to change the scene from inside a movie clip instance. I know how to change scenes with a button, but I can't seem to get the scene to change when certain criteria are met. For example inside a movie clip object I have this:
However, I have a main movie and in there I open the multiple scenes. If I use the preloader alone with the scenes it works, but when I want to load the preloader that should open the scenes inside the main movie it doesn't do anything.
var l:Loader = new Loader(); l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop); l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done); l.load(new URLRequest("magazine.swf")); function loop(e:ProgressEvent):void{ [Code] .....
In the old situation I use a button goto frame - and on the frame there is actionscript that says: stop(); loadMovie("magazine.swf", 'placeholder'); have changed that to stop(); loadMovie("preloader.swf", 'placeholder');
I have multiple scenes. In each scene I load lot of movie clips.I move from one scene to another scene and may come back to the already visited scene.
1. From one scene if I move to some other scene will it flush or unload the scene with the movie clips or they will be still floating in the memory? If it is going to be in the memory with the loaded movies how can I unload them when I move from Scene to Scene?
2. Can I reuse a loaded movie in one scene, in another scene? Basically can I share the same loaded movie in multiple scenes?
I am a novice actionscripter having trouble linking my combo box to the relevent scenes in the same movie, I am using Flash 6 and the script I am using is;
I have two scenes, one acts as a preloader. It contains a flv video that should play before the other scene is loaded. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to specify this logic on the timeline. For example, I want scene 1 to play until frame 20 and scene 2 to start at scene 21.
i have flash with 3 scene . i load a external swf in movie clip in scene 1 . but when i go to next scene external swf load again . i don't want it load again , it's load in scene 1 .
