Is there any way to make flash believe it’s loading a big file, just for the purpose of testing a preloader? I think I saw it somewhere before, but I’m not sure…

It’s just so I could test my preloader without having to make it a very big file and then putting it online or something, because even then I’ll only be able to see it once or twice or so…

Cheers
