I’ve searched in the forums and read the tutorials for hours and still can’t solve my problem.
I’ve found similar problems and aplied all different solutions answered in the forums but nothing has worked for me.
:red:
I used the script :
//first Frame
bytes\_loaded = Math.round(\_root.getBytesLoaded());
bytes\_total = Math.round(\_root.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes\_loaded/bytes\_total;
\_root.loadBar.\_width = getPercent_100;
\_root.loadText = Math.round(getPercent_100)+"%";
if (bytes\_loaded == bytes\_total) {
\_root.gotoAndStop(3);
}
//second frame
gotoAndPlay(1);
//third frame
stop();
//—end----
but the preloader doesnt even appear, first i thought it was because because i have a high speed conection but then i attached a 3mb sound file in the third frame and my preloader didn’t apeared
any help greatly apreciated 🙂

Hmmm, make sure that all Instace Names are correct and that your loadBar is 100 pixels in width. Also, change the script on the second frame to: [AS]this.gotoAndPlay(1);[/AS]

first: you need to change the
gotoAndPlay(2);
to
gotoAndPlay(1);
second:
your file IS too small. I placed a 500kb image in frame 3 and everything was fine.

If you’re just loading the html from your computer, the preloader won’t show. If you’re using the Flash Player for your computer, you can do a ‘simulated download.’

see it for your self its kinda weird anyways first click on the swf link and don’t let it load all (its has a 3mb sound file)
and then click on the html and it will show the preloader.

oh, maybe you have it cached…if so then it would skip the preloader, i see it on both the swf, and html file…
