I _think_ if you make a dynamic text box and give it a variable name like, LoadText

then put that box somewhere in your transition mc, which i think you called “loader”

then change this:

[AS]  
if (\_root.content.getBytesLoaded()\>=\_root.content.getBytesTotal()) {  
gotoAndPlay(“loaded”);  
}  
[/AS]

to

[AS]  
bytes\_loaded = Math.round(\_root.content.getBytesLoaded());  
bytes\_total = Math.round(\_root.content.getBytesTotal());  
getPercent = bytes\_loaded/bytes\_total;  
this.LoadText = Math.round(getPercent\*100)+"%";  
if (bytes\_loaded == bytes\_total) {  
gotoAndPlay(“loaded”);  
}  
[/AS]

of course the this.LoadText = Math.round line would have to reflect your path to it…ie \_root.loader.LoadText = Math.round or whatever it should put a percentage loaded
