yes preloaders are for streaming media since the files are locally relative to eachother and no matter how big the files are they will be found almost instantly ---

what you could do is make a scene where you have a bar growing as if it was loading and at the end of it it will proceed to do whatever you want to do ---

i know you can run an executable from flash but why would you want to do that it will slow down your computer when you could just lod it into the projector
