hi all, and firstly thanks for looking
I have started to write a game,
the components i have so far are the main menu, help section and contact section
i have found a good tutorial loading multiple swf, which i will use for the game itself as this will help because it loads each game into the game menu structure, making it easier for me to access score details etc.
the problem is this, the main menu takes a long time to preload, and once loaded I do not really want to remove it when the user visits the FAQ section, the FAQ section currently has its own preloader, when the user clicks back to main menu, i dont want it to start preloading and loading it again as i said its rather big.
so the main menu needs to sit in the background
im splitting it all up so that file sizes remain small and externally trying to load each in when a btn is clicked,
here is the problem, just wondering how to lay it out
im currently setting it up as preloader > main in the main timeline
and then in a new swf i have preloader > faq
and so on
is this the right way to go about it?
how can i tell flash to load in faq using its preloader upon btn press, without removing the main.
hope you understand
very confused
thanks
