Hi guys,

Im trying to preload the first external swf along with the main preloader so that the animation will be smooth. Can anyone help me with this? I want the first external swf to be loaded into a empty movie clip in the main swf, and not into a different level. A tutorial or sample fla would be helpful.

Cheers
