I am new to Flash and I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a little problem I’m having. I am trying to emulate a curtain effect from a website I came across and I have no where to start. If you are interested in helping me out a little please take a look at this site:

After looking at it maybe someone could give me some pointers on creating a similar effect. Your help is greatly appreciated.

If you mean the transistions between pages, that is easy.

What they did was created the sliding in animation, then had it preload, and once preloading is done it triggers the sliding out animation.

T\<U\>his is assuming they aren’t using scenes, same method, slighly different process…\</U\>

So lets say frame 1-20 are the sliding in animation. There would be a preloader script on frame 20 that keeps looping frame 20 until the site is fully preloaded, then it plays frame 21, where the content is on a lower layer, and the doors slide out to reveal that content.

I hope that helps 🙂
