I Need Help On Preloader

[karlzoe]

with respect to the tutorial on pre loader, what if i have multiple scenes. how do i ensure that they are fully downloaded before the movie plays.

There would be several ways to go about it...just off the top of my head, I would enable the navigation to those scenes only if htey are loaded...You could check that by a script on the buttons, if that's the way in, **if certain frame is loaded** then the button would be visible....
hope that gives some help...

Search for it ... I saw more people asking about it. I believe they solved it.

i think u need to specify a variable like;

totalframes = 'scene1'_totalFames+'scene2'_totalFrames+'scene3_t otalFrames.

i think this would work although i'm not sure if the punctuation in the code is correct.

the preloader will then look for all scenes to be loaded until it starts playing anything.

it would be better if u tested the movie with 'show streaming' on 56k and looked for the point where your movie could start playing and whilst it is playing load the rest. this is the point you want to specify as the var totalframes.

hope this helps, the code needs some work though!
