I’ve done a preloader, and loads the movie fine, but it loads so fast, that the bar animation and the text going from 1% - 100% doesn’t play at all. I want it to play through the animation quickly, even though the content is loaded.  
Any ideas on how to do this? heres the preloader script i’m using :

bytes\_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());  
bytes\_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());  
getPercent = bytes\_loaded/bytes\_total;  
this.loadBar.\_width = getPercent_74;  
this.loadText = Math.round(getPercent_100)+"%";  
if (bytes\_loaded == bytes\_total) {  
this.gotoAndPlay(14);  
}

Thanks
