My flash movie has two scenes at end of scene 2 i have load another movie using loadmovie. Now I wanna unload the loaded movie and directly go to scene 2 . Is there anyway by which I can directly jump to scne 2 instead of going through scene 1. I am using flash 5 and both moovies have same dimensions.
Please help

\_root.gotoAndPlay(frame);
should work fine from a loaded movie. Ignore the scene name it’s not necessary.

by using \_root.gotoAndPlay(frame), u wont be able to go back to that scene.
i have even tried \_level1.gotoAndPlay(frame), but it still doenst work…
I need to go back to that scene since that scene have all the navigation bar.

Is this a Flash 5.0 FLA? if so send it and the swf that get’s loaded to me in a zip file to [upuaut@centerspin.com](mailto:upuaut@centerspin.com).
The method I describe above is sound… if it’s not working then I’ll need to take a look at the rest of the production to figure out why it’s not working.
