Good afternoon, I hope everyone’s having a good Monday…
I’ve been struggling with this one for a while and despite intense Googling, haven’t found anything but unanswered versions of the same question, so I thought I’d ask you guys…
I have a Flash project (CS3 & AS2) that was never intended to go on the net, but I now want to add to my personal portfolio online. It is one main movie that contains the navigation and a whole load of small SWF’s that load into the levels above it using “loadMovieNum.”
My problem is, is that it is crucial for all these external SWF’s to be preloaded when you enter the site, in the main preloader of the main movie. This would mean they would all load instantly when called upon, instead of waiting for an individual preloader on each file.
I’ve tried combining all the SWF’s into one file, which is implausible, and even bodging (with my limited AS skills) a preloader that loads all the movies in the first frame onto their various levels… which doesn’t work.
I’m sure this must be a pretty common question and it seems like something that might be either really straight forward, or completely impossible, but any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Take it easy,
Kristian
