Help with loading swf with preloader at _root level

programming flash
1

Hi there

I have a swf file (“myfile.swf”) which i want to load using preloader.

I referred many tutorials for preloader but problem is I want to load “myfile.swf” at _root level as I have referenced many movieclips in it as for example _root.mc1.mc2

Is there a way to do this ???

I tried following but may be i am mistaking somewhere…

  1. I used preloader in frame 1 and frame 2 and swf content in frame 3 but the file is so huge that the preloading almost starts at around 69% or so

  2. I kept preloader in scene 1 and swf content in scene 2. But i cannot see the preloader or i can see at 98% or 99%

  3. I used preloader in “pre.swf” and used loadMovie() to load “myfile.swf” at _root. But as i m loading “myfile.swf” at _root so preloader’s code is overwritten and so i m not able to see preloader

Please somebody suggest or give some solution for this…

My “myfile.swf” is very complicated file and so i cannot change all the movieclips which i have referenced as “_root.mc1.mc2”.

Thanks a lot for help in advance

Regards
