How do I combine the preloader transition with the preloader percentage bar?

Dear helpers,

I thought I was nearly there with this and was feeling very happy with myself but, after combining the two tutorials into one, I find that not only do the external swf’s not load, but the ‘transition’ MC doesn’t play either!

Is this a targeting issue and the fact that I’ve added a new scene with frames? Does the _root mean the main timeline, and would that be part of the problem?

I’m a bit of a lightweight when it comes to AS and need to be told in a similar way to speaking to a very young child! :slight_smile:

Any help would be greatly apreciated.
