Can you Explain a little more? I don’t really understand. The unloading wasn’t working on my machine, but it might be because this machine is a piece of sh!t

ha! 999

hehehe!..

well the unloading worked 'cuz i added the \_root. to the button…remember?

you said:  
on(press)  
movie = 1

i added:  
on(press)  
\_root.movie = 1

and it worked…

now the problem is that the movies loads and unloads but they kinda stay in a loop of alpha-ins and alpha-outs…

did u check the site?..it didn’t worked?

Did you change the code in anyway? because for the fading, if you use anything other than 10 or 20, or any other number that divides evenly into 100 then it will glitch.

ok that was dumb…sorry…anyway…i used 10, 20, 40, 50 everything…it didn’t worked…

the glitch goes kinda in crescendo…then it stops and starts again…the dramatism of the glitch changes with the values that i give the movie in the alpha action…

lol, sorry, that was funny! :lol: :rollin:

Anywho…change the else if statement to look like this

}else if(\_root.movie!== 3 && \_alpha \>= 0){

and change the number to match the if statement. it should work, worked for me, sorry I overlooked it before.

\>= means greater than or equal to

!= means not equal to \_root.movie is not equal to 3

&& means “and” so, if \_root.movie isn’t equal to 3 and the \_alpha is greater than or equal to 0, then do whatever…

anything else?

I have PC, i don’t know why it wouldn’t work on a Mac, someone else might know, but I have no clue. I haven’t used a Mac in at least 8 years.

I don’t have a website yet, if I ever get one, I’ll let ya know.

And for a preloader, here’s the link to a good thread that Upu wrote about preloaders:
