Hi 28dead

As far as I can understand, I guess you want to do the entire animation in one scene.

Ok... you can use your movies on differnt layers on the same frames of the timeline... I think that sud solve your problem... chk out the x n y co-oridinates as well...

that depends on how you load the movies
into levels, targets or just they r on the stage

if loaded swfs:

on (release) {
_level1.play(16);
_level2.play();
}

if movieclips:

on (release) {
_root.mc1.play(16);
_root.mc2.play();
}

put a stop(); on frame 30
