Hay everyone,

Im having a problem with MovieClipLoader [MCL], and attaching one loader to multiple movieclips. Im developing in Flash MX 2004, exporting it as Flash 7, but it works **perfectly in Flash 8** but **not** in Flash Player 7 :\*(

Basically this is the way I have it setup:

- Define a MCL and their functions {TargetMCL}
- Have a for loop, which would:  
–\> Create an empty movieclip  
–\> Position this movieclip  
–\> Then load an image using the TargetMCL.loadclip(…);

If anyone can help me out and explain as to why this is doesnt work with Flash Player 7, I would be very grateful; this is the last bug ive had on a project that shouldnt have taken this long to do and its really been buggin me

Thanks in advance!

I had this exact same problem… turns out that flash 8 is able to load and display some image files that flash 7 can’t load. I think I had some faulty jpg’s. Try re-saving your images with a trustworthy image tool like photo-shop and try it again!

Flash 8 included much more image support,one thing to watch out for is progressive JPGs, they can be a pain to track down.

Edit: Riddler? dont see you around here much.
