sequential preloading

[iredlands]

ive followed the guidelines of the Sequential Preloader by Jesse Stratford and it works great

my question:
how do i stop each movie from starting automatically?

ive added a stop action into the first frame of all my clips - no joy

can anyone advise?

the stop() isn't enough in the first frame, u should tell it withing the main movie that it all the frames are loaded, to gotoAndStop(1)

[iredlands]

thankx for the reply

ive inserted gotoAndStop(1); into every line in the code & im stumpted

im presuming it needs to go here

// load the next movie in the sequence into the new container
loadMovie("bg"+count+".swf", _root[newName]);
_root[newName].gotoAndStop(1);

but that doesnt seem to work


any ideas?

// load the next movie in the sequence into the new container
loadMovie("bg"+count+".swf", _root[newName].gotoAndStop(1));
