Hello ! I am fairly new to this whole thing and I've created a splash intor leading into my own flash website. Everything is in flash. The intro is fairly small (45 kb) so it loads OK and has a pre-loader. I used load movie at the end of it to load the website which is over 300kb and this causes a delay naturally. When I checked it on a dial up it is painfully slow. I constructed the site by using scenes and then using the interface buttons to goto and play each scene as the buttons are pushed. From within each scene there is a back button to take you back to the original interface where you can continue to make various selections - 5 buttons in all. I decided to try and put each scene into its own SWF and use the multi-preloader tutorial written by Jesse to load them into seperate levels all at the beginning and the access them accordingly. I have then used each button to try and access the SWF's but it does not want to work. Once you have display of maybe your "contactus" info from level 7 by clicking on button "services" from level 4 how can I get it going back and forth between the various SWF and save myself all the download time. Also my background music is in its own SWF and takes forever to load and the movie starts before the sound - how can I correct all of this?
Not that I have written my whole life story - any help would be appreciated!
